What camouflage scheme to choose...

[andrewmarley]

Thanks, Ares, but I need a pictures of patterns (textures).
Primary russian camo pattern named Flora (using in army since 1993) is a main camo pattern for almost all military corps in russian army. But not long time ago different corps started to use own patterns. So now I gotta make a choose between many patterns to use it in my model of paratrooper. Anyway, I could use the same pattern for all my russian units... But I think different corpsmust have different patterns. For example I'm gonna make a couple of russian units:
1) Soldier (GF, Flora Pattern, AKM)
2) AT Soldier (GF, Flora Pattern, RPG-26)
3) AA Soldier (GF, Flora Pattern, SA-7)
4) Spetsnaz (GRU, Dubok or Beryozka Pattern, VSS Vintorez)
5) Paratrooper (VDV, Still don't know, AKSU-74)

I chose flora version 1. I'm looking forward to these soldiers. I particularly like the avtomat detail!

Ochin Xarasho!

Ochin Xarasho!

Spasibo, tovarisch!

Очень хорошо!

Спасибо, товарищ!

Eng:

Very well!

Thanks, comrade!

Once a Russian military or paramilitary unit departs from the standard Flora variants, there doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to what camo pattern they'll get -- other than the whim of the local commander and what they're able to procure from the after-market. So you might as well just use whatever pattern suits your fancy!

 

[andrewmarley]

I found a way to export some camo textures from Battlefield 2 Project Reality... Now tell me - civ color or not?

 

[Ares de Borg]

Nope.

 

[andrewmarley]

Well... Ok

 

[ShiroKobbure]

I prefer civ colored because if there is none, then I can only use it for one civ, And I also need to be familiar with a particular military uniform to know what civ it is.
Can you render two versions? One with a civ colored canteen or civ colored patch/insignia on their arm?

 

[Moff Jerjerrod]

I agree with ShiroKobbure and prefer to use the civ color version although offering two versions to the public would be a nice idea.

 

[Ares de Borg]

Yeah, 2 versions would be magnificient.

 

[andrewmarley]

Well, I've got not so powerful computer and rendering will take much time And I've got a troble with flicster - When I launch it, BSOD appears ("Blue screen of death" ) I tryed to download different flicsters - the same situation. I don't know what to do.

 

[tom2050]

This guy had a similar problem.

First off, whenever you get a blue screen, record the exact error message it gives, because this tells you the reason for the BSOD. W/O it's near impossible to diagnose.
<Your BSOD may look different> <Your STOP and error message might be different also>

If it gives a filename, like the WYZX.sys above, write that down also.

It's most likely not Flicster directly causing this. The guy in the post above said problem was from the way palletted files were saved in GIMP that was causing issues. What graphics program are you using? If it is GIMP, is it latest version?

 

[andrewmarley]

I'm using Photoshop CS3

 

[tom2050]

Did you get it to work? If you got BSOD, what error messages?

 

[andrewmarley]

The same message as you posted

 

[tom2050]

You got the exact same message? That was just a random BSOD screen I grabbed from online.

So you got: driver irql not less or equal
and: 0X000000D1
?

The WXYZ.sys likely wasn't there though. Probably another message; unless you actually jot the message down and tell us, there's no way to tell specifically what it is.

I used to get that screen on my computer randomly and semi-often; ended up being a rootkit. It could be something simple or not simple. Regardless, you can search for solutions online, or if you leave the message, I can look up to find possible causes/solutions.

I'm assuming you have Win XP?

 

[andrewmarley]

Here is me bsod:

I've got Windows 7

 

[tom2050]

It's a driver issue, or the fact that Windows can't find that driver it's looking for.

First, run a virus scan, and something like Malwarebytes (free) to make sure it's not a virus causing it.

I will not responsible for anything I say here, because I don't know specifics of your system, but you can find alot of information by searching with google or w/e for 'SI3112.sys'.

If you have an ASUS Motherboard, seems this is a common issue.

This tech forum gave good information regarding a possible solution for you.

Another thread relating to the above.

 

[andrewmarley]

But fixing this trouble will take much time, and people here want my unit as soon as possible...

 

[tom2050]

The only other alternative I can think of is to render all the images, and then someone can make the FLC's for you. But the problem with this is that you would have to upload several hundred MB of the rendered .BMP files, and the other person would have to download them. And if end result isn't what you want, it would have to be done over again, and for each unit.

That's alot of time. Might be better off trying to fix the issue, so you can use Flicster. Or at least run a virus scan, or a 10 minute Malwarebytes scan to see if something else is causing it.

I was getting 0x0000007F Stop errors on occasion some time ago. This can mean bad memory, bad processor, or worse. Ended up being a virus/rootkit. Cleaned it out and it never happened again.

A guy on one of the pages in the threads about your error said for him it was a virus. Could be, or might not be. Might be good to do a quick check to know for sure.
