#A.L.I.C.E. Expansion
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
I like that you've improved the m81 colours. It bothers me how greyish they look in vanilla. Even the US m1 helmet covers all look wildly wrong in colour and brightness
Could you consider the m81 colour correction as a standalone mod pack?
May need some touch ups but i have separated the Expansion pack and the uniform colors
Love to see more cold war era stuff.
Great job so far, keep it up 👌
bit of feedback on the uniforms if you ever intend to revisit. They're (mainly talking the US M81 camo) a bit too dark, especially in contrast the scenery, but the colour tones a much nicer than vanilla
AL.I.C.E. Expansion update
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64727D12054CDF52-A.L.I.C.E.Expansion
Fixed bones for the PASGT Goggles
Added Cigarettes
Added a US Flag "Patch" to the US BDUs (Only the M81 BDU)
Fixed the color on the Pro-Tec helmet
Recolored Uniforms update
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/647670451F6EA6DA-RecoloredUniforms
Fixed the dark colors on the US equipment (should be lighter now)
Added a US Flag "Patch" to the US BDUs (Only the M81 BDU)
👌
I'm not sure if someone mentioned it or not, I was wondering if there a choc chip camo uniform or not? Sorry if I asked
Currently no, Reforged Army Studios has a good one on the Workshop so it's not a priority right now. Maybe in the future I'll add it.
Alright and awesome 😄👍
Do you plan on adding and lower blouses pants or de bloused? (For us shit bag type of guys)
debloused pants are planned
Do the cigarettes work can I actually smoke them?
Love the mod, teensy little issue, the change to the M81 texture (due to Bohemias incompetence when it comes to Mod support), means that the custom addition of the flag requires screenshotting the texture, which lowers it's quality compared to that of what's already in the game, so it stands out alot when wearing a full M81 clothing piece.
iirc the only real solution is to make your own M81 texture from scratch
I hate doing this to mod authors since I know creating new assets and what not is incredibly time consuming, but if there’s one thing I would love to see come to this amazing mod would be a m60 belt bandolier. I know this screenshot was from Vietnam, but a simple bullet bandolier I can’t find from any other mods and I feel it would fit this mod perfectly. But just throwing this idea out there, and once again thanks for an amazing mod. Not sure if it’s fits the project alice theme, but I feel it would be a great addition.
there used to be a mod that had an M60 bandolieer, it was a vietnam war one, i think it was Op. Rolling Thunder, but it was probably deleted a few weeks back as i cant find it anymore
So I may fix it in the future but it's not a big priority right now seeing that you literally have to look be looking right up on it to notice it.
This is something that I do plan on adding in the future once I find an asset or the time to make my own.

With all of this being planned I am dropping any plans for the Soviet faction as I don't really have the interest in doing anything for that faction. I want to be able to focus on just the US faction as it will allow me to pay more attention to detail and keep the mod at a relatively small size.
I will also be turning to a more "Ranger" style for the mod as there isn't much for SF type mods for the vanilla game. If you have any questions or suggestions please feel free to share them with me.
You should def add the Ranger Assault Carry Kit
Nice work dude, I look forward to future updates. Especially old school ranger gear.
RBA coming in next update!
Neat!
Nice
Overwhites maybe?, havent found a mod with good pair, usually just the regular BDU but textured white, or a soviet oversuit with random patterns.
Awesome pic 😄👍👍
also, are the planned NVGs the style of PVS5s? or PVS7s
What mod has the black hawk down style helmets it would go hard with this tryna find it along side this mod
The Alice expansion mod has it's own, but i do remember what mod you are thinking of, i'll dig it up in a few.
Alrighty
Did the ttsko uniform get removed?
dog's berets
What happened to that mod anyway
When skeletons got updated with the last update it broke, all the gear is offset on your head.
one tiny issue I have discovered from this mod is that you cant save your loadout with any of the soviet harnesses, I know this mod focusses on US gear but I got a server that switches between factions every now and then and we love the mod, but we cant save a loadout with the soviet harnesses which is very strange, jsut wondering if this is fixable/on your radar, thanks.
Has the gm change the box so you can save anything
yeah I set it to do so and it still wouldnt save
I saw that the RBA got added. Are they currently working as intended or is that going to come in 1.3.
@remote fable could you add the gas mask bag to your list is a huge part of the Cold War era uniform would work great for desert storm era units etc
why do some of the vests not work with flashlights? any of the vests that do not spawn with a light in the vest don't let a flashlight work when one is added to its inventory. Lights only work when wearing those vests when the light is put in the uniform top/blouse.
🇰🇼 🇺🇸 Kuwait 1991 Desert Storm
Only complaint I have about the alices is that sometimes I think it’s on certain “alice packs” you can see Grenades down by your feet but that’s not a big deal
Oooh I want that choc chip camo!
@reforged studios mod
Sweet thanks 😄👍
There are some floating grenades that linger after a player spawns in
Yeah just about to mention that it only happens when you pick up grenades
it happens on spawn for me and a few other players. the Frags aren't interactable, and have no collision. they just sorta float there where you spawned in.
Alright so I've been keeping up with all of the suggestions and ideas. Here is somethings to look forward too in the coming month(s):
Complete rework of ALICE Expansion
Fixing issues with floating grenades ect
Rework of some of the custom models and new textures
Addition of Cold weather gear
Addition of unbloused BDU pants
More is planned, I'll add it to the road map soon. I also wanna let you guys know I'm not ignoring any of the issues you report or any of you're suggestions. I'm just not as active in this thread I'm more active in a separate discord. I just wanna let you all know I have added the suggestions that I've liked to my "to do list" for ALICE Expansion. Also I just wanna say thank you guys for the support, it means a lot!
Is the Flashlight issue on the list of to-do fixes?
some of the vest variants don't let light shine through, i have a list but its basically all the ones that don't spawn with a flashlight in them
Also check out my new USMC Expansion mods for all of you Marine nerds!needs!
USMC Expansion Update
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64F826C0F6538780-USMCExpansion
This mod contains custom models of USMC uniforms, equipment, and a complete overhaul of the vanilla US Faction.
So far the mod consists of:
- BDU M81/Chocolate Chip Field Jackets
- Garrison uniforms
- 8 Point Cap
- M69 Field Jacket
- OD T-Shirt
- Custom boonies
- Custom PASGT helmet
- Retextured PASGT vest
- Custom faction (Army is now USMC)
- All loadouts for the USMC been redone to reflect the USMC in this time period
- Callsign changes
- A.I. and player squads changed to 13 man structure
This mod is going to be improved upon over time. I will not be adding any custom assets that already exist in my A.L.I.C.E Expansion mod as i don't want to have redundant things in the arsenals if majority of you are already using that mod.
Future additions are:
-Chocolate Chip Garrison uniforms with rank insignias
-US SF units redone to replicate a USMC Recon battalion
-Expanding on the cold weather uniforms (Will possibly do in A.L.I.C.E. Expansion
I'm still open for suggestions on this mod or any of my others. Thank you guys for the support and I hope you enjoy!
If you have a list of issue please DM them to me so I can add them to my list of fixes/changes. Also yes I made some of the kits not able to use the flashlight as I've put other things on the suspenders.
gotcha, yeah it seemed intentional based on where the gear was placed.
The lights work when worn in the BDU blouse instead, so its an easy workaround
@remote fable this is asking a lot but could you add chocolate chip helmets and the vest with your expansion mod it only has the shirt and pants haha
We appreciate everything you’ve been doing
Yes, it'll be coming with the next update.
These rolled sleeves are so much nicer than the ones in vanilla
tried the USMC expansion, its real nice. I wish Arma 4 has branches like Marines etc with extra uniform variation. The differences used between branches, although small in the 1980s, is cool to see in game
AL.I.C.E. Expansion update
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64727D12054CDF52-A.L.I.C.E.Expansion
-Fixed issues with AI not having a loadout

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64FD4AD81A11B228-USMCExpansionRedo
Annnd its back!
I have "fixed" the PASGT helmet so it doesn't look like its chipped on the front anymore
Fixed the issue with the Field Jacket blocking you from wearing pants
Fixed the storage for the Field jackets (now has the base BDU storage)
Other minor tweaks to the Faction UI
Enjoy everyone!
Im correct in assuming this is the M16A1 added as part of one of the recent ALICE updates?
as uh, it's sort of just a regular M16A2 but with full auto and the A1 handguard
Yup that’s what it is
Players spawn with two Bayonets and overweight on the vest:
a few of the vests have the double knives and messed up weights
Alice Rifleman 6 is misnamed to Alice Rifleman 3 (there are two Rifleman 3's)
real Rfileman 3 is above the misnamed one
damn what mod adds the flightcrew chicken plate?
uhhh, Cold Front Equipment i think
just be aware that Cold Front euipment also has its own US Flag Patch uniforms that this mod doubles up on, it looks kinda goofy
Also, the Grenade at feet thing is still happening
i've got the USMC mod, so my guys will probably be using the USMC BDUs over the regular game ones (although, obviously not having to deal with the Flag over flag thing would be nice
yeah i think the easiest way to fix it would just do with CFE does and make the flag version its own item, not a reskin
then both mods would be compatible, and players can have options for which flag version they want
the OD Green Jacket is showing faction as recognized as FIA, not US. Is it because its a reskin of the FIA jacket?
huh, i actually dont have the double flag problem, might just be load order?
check the other version, the rolled sleeves
the ALICE gear has smaller flags, so it may be hidden under, but for the rolled sleeves, they're next to each other, not overlaid
if its load order, what order do you have them in and i can make note of it for my server
wait, actually, there are 2 sets of BDUs
one with the glitched double flag, one without, for both rolled and unrolled, so im guessing whoever made Cold Front made a separate version for their uniform with a flag, whilst ALICE Expansion adds the flag to the base uniform texture
Yeah, CFE adds the flag versions as their own set
I said that above lol
So I’m guessing this mod isn’t public anymore so it won’t be getting updates
Bummer was a good idea lol
What's up? The mod us still up. I'm currently working on more things to add.
Working on MCCUUs for the mod. As well as MOLLE for the mod.
Here is the blouse in the Enfusion workbench
Oooh that looking good! 😄👍👍
Ohhhh figured you gave up on it the name on the mod changed and there’s a bunch of British dependency crap lol
Ohhhh I see you made it into another mod 😂 sorry @remote fable
Yeah I put it up for like 3 hours on the release night and found a bunch of things broken so I took it down and put it back up the next day. In short:
DONT DOWNLOAD
1RB Mod Pack - this is for my milsim
DO DOWNLOAD
USMC Expansion Redo - this is for the community.
Thank you!
You welcome 😁👍👍
is it me, or is the mod missing a bunch of the alice versions, like the ones with extra mag pouches?
It is, I had to remove those as a lot of the pouches were floating and was messing with the inventory space. Once I find a fix for them I will add them back.
If a fix is found, could one of the webbing setups just be the regular rifleman setup, dual canteens, buttpack and other such, but with the 4 mag pouches instead of the 2 at the front.
@remote fable Is this mod the one that adds the IFAK items to some of the gear inventories? the item does't appear in an arsenal box, only in some of the ALICE rigs
It does, I'm doing some fixes/additions to the mod right now. Looking to have an update out tonight! Thank you for letting me know!
Sounds good. Yeah if it could be added to the main all-in-one arsenal box, and then also to the medical gear box, that'd be perfect
ALICE Sniper vest leaves a m9 floating in the air when spawned in
Edit, the US Sniper NPC type does this, not the vest in the arsenal
@remote fable are you going to be making any IBAs/ IMTVS for the USMC by chance?
He gots a usmc mod, but it’s mostly based around the 90s
But I do know reforgedarmystudios is going to make an iba
Once he finds a good model
(also, LBV-88s would be fire)
Lbv-88 would be a pretty cool addition to the gear set.
I’m honestly SHOCKED nobody’s made the m17 gas bag yet literally was used in every single conflict in the Cold War 😂 if I still had a good computer I’d be making one @glacial pine
The A.L.I.C.E Expansion mod is a must have, all the people in my server love it! They can't get enough of the cigarette! Chainsmoking has never been so tacticool!
Yeah operation overlord actually had the m17 gas bag mod but the mod didn’t make it through the update I use it on my desert Storm server lol
AL.I.C.E. Expansion update
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64727D12054CDF52-A.L.I.C.E.Expansion
- M81 BDU Retexture
- Missing blood textures as of now - Helmets and caps have been given new textures
- Rework of the RBA and ProTec helmets
- Should no longer clip or look to small/big - Removal of duplicate and unfinished items from the arsenal
Grenade pouches are now useable. You have to manually place you grenades or flashlight(the original light spot has priority) into the ALICE inventory for them to show.
Helmets can now be attached to you ALICE kit. Just drag the helmet over to the ALICE inventory and it will attach. Please be aware that this will mess with the inventory screen, I will look for a fix later (nothing game breaking).
Everything is working as intended and the new textures, from what I have seen, look good in game in majority of the lighting. If you find any issues please report them to me here or PM me. I hope you all have a wonderful day!
Be patient my man, I've got one in the works.
peak
lol
Ooooo neat if you need a blender model or something I know operation over lord had one made you could ask permission for it possibly just throwing you an idea buddy
Was there a reason by the way you too out the dark green PASGT ? did it break ?
He retextured the woodland camo it could be that or is it something else?
Texture was bad. I'm making a new one.
Is there a plan to make it to where the M9s actually appear in the holster
Ah appreciate it buddy thank you 🙏
Yeah kinda weird how that mod disappeared like that bud FOREVER ago thought it was really cool though even know it’s just a storage bag haha
AL.I.C.E. Expansion update
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64727D12054CDF52-A.L.I.C.E.Expansion
- Added Removable US Flag Patch for US BDUs
- Added Removable Unit/Name tape for US BDUs
- Added the ability to add/remove items to the ALICE suspenders.
- Readded the OD Green PASGT vest
- Reworked some of the ALICE configurations
I have made it possible to add/remove frags and smokes to the suspenders and the grenade pouches. Everything is currently working as intended. As of now the Frags and M18s have fixed points they'll clip too on the suspenders. I am looking for a way to have them go in completely random points without overlapping/clipping. Until then, enjoy and please report any issues back to me.
do the removable flags replace the uniforms with the flags on them already?
yeah
well uh, thats interesting
will we see a full ALICE rig return, as basically all the ones we have currently are using random components, like one loadout might have the E-Tool storage, another will have the bayonet scabbard, then another will have the dual canteen setup.
also whats with the constant use of the LMG pouch over the regular ALICE Buttpack
The saw pouch was used as an alternative buttpack back then, but I don’t understand the constant use of the saw pouch either
is it better storage capacity? idk
Than the buttpack? No, but my guess is they were more available
i meant in game, but yeah that's probably true irl
I havent seen any use of the Saw pouch over the regular buttpack, like at all, nothing from Grenada, Kuwait, or Panama, let alone later in the 90s,
i think it's only really used because it looks somewhat better than the buttpack, whilst not being accurate at all (which sort of hurts the modpack)
A lot of guys in the 70s-00s would opt of of using the buttpacks for other pouches like more magazine pouches, canteen pouches, ect. Also a lot of other guys wouldn't even get the buttpack in the first place. YES I know you'll see guys wearing the buttpack OR the tri-fold medical pouch that looks just like the buttpack.
Also say that "not being accurate at all" is kind of wrong. Most guys who where issued the A.L.I.C.E. obtained most if not all of the pouches and would set up their rigs however they were comfortable or based on unit SOP (Just like the MOLLE in the 2000s). Trust I do my research and I have decent amount of people researching thing for me as well so we make sure the pack is realistic but also look visually pleasing.
To end this rant, just like I tell others... if you don't like the way the mod look, things that it changes, ect, just don't use it or just make your own... it's not hard!
A lot of people are too picky lol 😂 they act as if it’s their choice and their mod
i'd love to make my own, but you are the smart one here so i'm only along for the ride.
the thing was, i had noticed it on the earlier versions of the mod, and it was sort of bugging me that it was sort of just removed
Hey so idk if you take suggestions or not but I've always thought it would be cool to have knee and elbow pads like from black hawk down, I think it'll make the delta force kinda look that a lot of this pack has even though I'm almost certain that no one actually used them
Someone has knee pads mod it’s called misfits gear
But a 90s look would be absolutely amazing
Yeah I know but that's really cluttered with stuff I don't use all the time
Yeah sadly nobody really cares about the 80s 90s or Early 2000s gear everybody wants stupid modern conflict garbage to look tactical
This guys making the m17 gas mask bag so at least that’s something new glad to have somebody who cares about the Cold War era gear really appreciated
Yeah his shit is really slick I like it a lot
@remote fable figured I’d give you another idea for Cold War gear
The new removable flag patch still shows up on the sleeve even after its been removed, but only in the inventory:
in 3rd person view, its off correctly.
removing another piece of gear (for example, the helmet) resets the bugged sleeve and it then shows correctly in inventory
Yeah, as of now there isn't anything I can do about it.
missed oppertunity to go with an LBV-88 fr
I'm looking for a good model for one, this have been something I wanted to add in since I started the mod.
Minor request, can you change the BDUs to spawn without the Patches? Lots of modded uniforms reskin the BDU tops and they end up spawning with the US flag and nameplates on, even if they're USSR/FIA/Other factions
Also, any way to have them work with Zelik's patch spots instead of being put in the inventory of the BDU top?
i think you can strip the patches off by taking them.. off?
you can, but when i spawn a group of whats supposed to be enemy soldiers, they're wearing US flags on their definitely not US uniforms
Reforger Plus, WZ Uniforms, and Cold Front all have variations of the US BDU (on other factions) that now spawn with US flags and Nameplates on the front
oh, rip.
yeah, it looks weird when a Czech, PLA, or ZDF soldier has the US flag lol
Pushing an update for the mod now that should fix that issue. As long as whoever created the other mods that use the US BDU blouse set it up correctly, they should no longer have any of my patches appear on them.
As for using zeliks, no. I am currently trying to set up my own system (kind of like RHS) so I do have to have any dependencies on my mods. The patches don't take up any inventory space in the shirts, they just appear there. It is the same way the flashlight attaches to the shirts/suspenders.
gotcha, yeah i do like how its just plug and play, i was just a quirk of other modders that use those types of uniforms
How easy would it be to make other patches based on this system? there are a few mods that do patches but they use the Zelik's system
Very easy. I just have to create the model for it and then plug it into enfusion.
nice, i'd love to see some Unit Patches for the other arm (left side), stuff like the 82nd Airborne, 75th Ranger, etc. Full color and subdued would be nice
Oh, is this slight bug being address with the update?
So I actually may hold off on doing unit specific patches like that for a minute while I focus on getting my 90s/00s mod on the workshop. There is also another team (Reforged Army Studios) doing patches of his own and I don't want to make the same patches that he makes due to some people using both of our mods together.
I have seen this and it seems like it may just be an Arma issue🤷♂️
I'll keep looking for a solution though.
Yeah, my group has the US Military Accessory pack from Reforged Army studios, but its only got like 4 units currently
theirs do go in the Zelik's Patches spots
Though it looks like they will be moving them to the Expanded US mod soon, so hopefully they add more when they do that
I believe this is his newest mod. From what he has stated about his new patch system is that he doesn't use Zelik's anymore, and has it setup a different way. I haven't checked it out yet but I have heard it's good.
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/633A0D1A01943BD8-ExpandedUSMilitary
yeah we have that too, it so far just adds a single US flag (similar to how yours works)
looks like the future plans say they'll do more patches
Up Coming Project: 1998-2005 US Army Expansion
Oooh nice nice!
Will that be a separate mod or part of the Alice Expansion?
Yes, this is going to be its own mod.
Finally someone is making the IBA Vest thank you
Will this include groups or will it be solely equipment?
Could CUP even fit on consoles?
No clue if you added the knee pads bc of my suggestion or if you did it bc you were going to anyways but either way thanks this really brings the kit together, I always thought the arms and legs looked a bit naked compared to the rest of the body
I am asking this again
Only special forces guys back then had knee pads the best thing you’ll see guys back in the 80s 90s were wearing leg holsters or the m17 gas mask bag you’re average grunt wasn’t wearing knee pads until the late 90s
The first large scale of us military grunts wearing knee pads wasn’t until the invasion of Iraq 🇮🇶 in the early 2000s or option enduring freedom
I'm thinking about adding groups or just redoing some of the base characters to have some of the new equipment.
Gravelcam best Cam
Is the M88 temporary?
Beautiful
Hello everyone! I just wanna come in here and say thank you to all of you that have supported me through the creation of A.L.I.C.E. Expansion. This began as a small little project about 5 months ago due to a request that someone made, I never thought that this mod would reach 10,000 downloads! Due to you guys I have learned a lot about modding and I am now capable of things I never even thought was possible. I hope to see this mod continue to grow and I hope to see it used in more servers.
With that being said I would like to announce that I will be taking a small break from A.L.I.C.E. Expansion to focus on getting the first version of my early 2000s mod onto the workshop. After that, I will be working with some of my friends to build a community revolving around using these mods i.e. a game master server or conflict server, as I would like to see this content used in a more community focused environment. If any of you would be interested in that feel free to message me personally.
Again, thank you guys and have a fantastic day!

Urban M81,
now we just need an M40 Gas mask and it's HECU time.
Hey I don't know how possible it is, but is there a way for you to add the acog and keep the 4x vanilla scope at the same time
US Army 98-04 Expansion - Update 0.0.3

Are we able to remove patches? For some reason I can't get rid of them
You should be able too, in the inventory screen they don't disappear until you reopen/pick up another item.
If I'm wrong could you send me like a SS or something so I can better see what you are talking about.
Out of curiosity will you be adding the DCU IBA and the pouch presets by themselves ?
Yes!
Both
Absolute legend
its not a bad model tbh,but mid part a bit too big
as far as the molle and protec helmet's gos,they're fire asf
Are you referring to this piece??
Hey unsure if you are aware but any NPC spawned in with your kit on will have nothing in their inventory, I think it's for both of your US mods but I'm only certain for the ALICE one
Okay, I'll get that fixed.
Be cool to see neck roll, hydro water bag lol or the button piece to protect your balls from getting blown off 😂
You read my mind brother 😂
Completely redoing the IBA model as it looks pretty bad in Reforger.
Definitely some glitches whenever I have other gear/clothing mods it conflicts with them, seemed to be fine this morning though?
I'm working on it
I figured I was just letting you know lol it’s not that big of a deal
yes
Does this mod block access to the Jungle Boots? The guys in my server love this mod for our Cold War thing but we miss our OD boots 😢
side project I have been working on.
With the lack of 80s-90s weapon attachments, I have been slowly working on creating my own flashlights and lasers. As of right now I have the PEQ-2 and Flashlight for the M16 platforms. I may release this between to night to a couple days. I just need to make sure that the scripts are working as intended.
And before any of you ask, YES I plan on making a STARLIGHT scope.
Does the IBA offer the same protections as the pasgt vest?
Until I figure out how the armor system works, yes the IBA and RBA both have the some protection as the PASGT.
Hey, good work.
Is there a mod that focuses on Russian gear, just like this one focuses on [e.g., American] equipment?
RHS lol
I think you don’t understand me.
He makes old-school gear,
RHS makes modern gear lol.
Thank you!
To my knowledge no sadly. I would do a Soviet mod but I'm just not educated well enough or interested in them.
The only way I'd really do it is if I could find someone who would like to split the work load with me.
@remote fable sorry for ping, but do you know that the vest does not allow you to save loadout in pvp conflict? Thx!
which vest? there are like a dozen in this mod
I have seen mods by reforged Arma studios (I think that’s the name) with some added Cold War Russian gear.
Reforger Plus
WZ Uniforms has some too
and Cold Front Equipment
What Vest?
Squad leaders (1 to 5)
@remote fable there is something wrong with the colours on the kzs blouse
It’s a bit darker then the trousers
Yeah I already told him… for some reason the mod seems to mess up other clothing items I’m sure he’s gonna fix it happened to me too man
heyheyy could you please return the default loadouts to what they are in vanilla, especially shovels so you can actually play conflict with alice expansion, i would really appreciate it if you found the time for that ^^
(also i know its your mod but still, heres the comparison of vanilla vs alice expansion default loadouts)
Yes I'll get that fixed in about an hour or so! Thank you for sending me that picture, cured my headache of trying to remember what the loadouts used to be lol.
Is that for the Recolored mod??
Colors are fixed!
A.L.I.C.E. Expansion update will be live in about 15 minutes, all loadouts have been reset to their original state. Let me know if I missed anything.
Update is live!
Is the hydration pack sitting low intentional? I understand it might not sit right with the certain kit options or have clipping issues. I'm just curious as all.
Is it possible to make fully customizable ALICE rig? So we can choose and mix different gear and pouches?
If you have a server you might be able to just make a prefab using the vanilla pouches
AL.I.C.E. Expansion update 0.1.35
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64727D12054CDF52-A.L.I.C.E.Expansion
- Optimization Changes
- Removed some gear in the mod that I just didn't like or never did anything too
- File restructure
- License Change
The mod has been cut in half from 441.33 MB to 278.67 MB hopefully this helps download speeds and optimization on servers.
Will we ever see the m17 gasmask bag make its way in?
was the m65 jacket jacket removed in the latest alice update?, as i cant find it anywhere
I have a new one to put in to the mod. The texture for the old one wasn't the greatest.
Still a lot of work to do but it's all getting there.
Thank you for your effort
Glad you are no longer banned
Could I get permission to reskin? I noticed the texture I wanna use is already in the file and just needs to be applied.
I was never banned, are you thinking about the guy who made the first ALICE Project mod?
Yes I might be confusing you 2
Yeah, I liked his mod a lot and was disappointed when he got himself in to some trouble and got his mods taken down. So I decided to make my own.
plans for AN/PVS 4 in future? (my beautiful m60 needs a scope)
ever thought about making a poncho
I have. It may be something I'll do in the future
any plans for m16a4?
Woobie poncho??
Would you consider ever doing Yugoslav people’s army equipment for FIA?
Managed to take this a few months back when the M9 bayonet scabbard was on the ALICE Rigs
Will you add glint tape to the top of the Pasgt?
Dont know if this is already known, but the 82nd patches are sideways on the OD Green M65 jacket in-game, and im unsure if the kneepads are from this mod, but if they are, they are practically solid-black and suck in all light.
AL.I.C.E. Expansion Lite
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/65844D450153E2D8-ALICEExpansionLite
New (not really) mod I have been working on that takes the features from A.E., without all of the other assets added. This version is just the custom ALICE kits with their A.E. functionality and the ProTec helmets. I decided to make this mod for any MilSim groups and/or gaming communities that have wanted to use A.L.I.C.E. but opted not to due to the size and addition of more cosmetic items. Hopefully this will help more communities out there.
id imagine itd be pretty difficult to map all the colliders and make it flowy and such
only game ive seen with nice looking ponchos is insurgency sandstorm
Not rlly saying it has to flow, I don't mind if its static
Id just like to stand in the rain in reforger with a poncho
@remote fable I tried the mod but the grenade doesn't show on character
Also, idk if you intended to add it as an option but I can't remove pouches from the chest rig
I'm using just the ALICE Lite mod
Okay I tested a little bit more and grenade shows on character on the twelve grenade
Only in inventory
Okay so after some testings
- Equipment appears on the character instantly only if it is picked up from the ground.
- Only the white smoke grenade appears on the character.
- The helmet is bugged in the inventory when it is on the chest rig.
- If you place a grenade in the quick bar and throw one, you must drag the grenade into the quick bar again. Also, when a grenade is in the quick bar, it does not show on the character.
It would be nice if, instead of many preset of the chest rigs, have an option to place pouches as preferred (like #1360624225106268342)
Also pistol doesn't appear in the holster (but that is a vanilla problem)
So all of this is just issues in the Lite mod right?
Yes
I didn't test the other mod
Thank you. The issue in the loadout screen I haven't been able to fix and I can't seem to find one. Everything else I'll have fixed soon.
Awesome thank you. Did you also add the customization of the chest rig?
No no, not yet
Oh okok 👍
what happened?
He got banned
So I guess the Alice expansion won’t be updated now it will still work not until a major update breaks it
Banned for stealing scripts
Aw no shit?, who'd he steal em from
What script was anyway
Anyway this mean no customization for ALICE 
we have to beg #1360624225106268342 to do it since he is doing something similiar but with modern gear
I’m pretty sure some of them were in his 2000s mod
I forgot which ones tho
I’m gonna need a better textured iba (no offence to dee tho) it could Have been better
are there any mods with IBA
No I don’t think there is but there is a Cold War mod that has a chicken vest it’s similar to the iba
If I remember correctly I think something similar happened the last time someone did a A.L.I.C.E mod
is the mod gunna stay up?
Yeah
Yeah that person stole some assets from cod Cold War
I loved this mod but I do feel that it should've JUST have been the a.l.i.c.e stuff and not the extras it added, not saying they weren't great, just a saying they shouldve been put in another pack
It did
It was called Alice expansion lite https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/65844D450153E2D8-ALICEExpansionLite
The mod is still on the workshop
Is the mod with the IBA staying up
Yeah
No it’s not
Fuck
You can wait for reforged army studios to make his version of an iba but he’s only gonna make it if he finds a good model
where is that dudes discord I can not for the life of me find it
I still see his mod on the workshop are you sure its being removed>
It’s probably only the peq-2
If that’s the case then your lucky until it breaks
Yeah I’m pretty sure Dee’s iba is his , idk if it is tho I could be spreading misinformation
If the thread wasn’t deleted fast I could have gave more information I only got to see half of it before it was deleted
I just want the IBA one to stay up till something else is uploaded because there is almost nothing from the early 2000's
Yeah reforged army studios has a lot of mods he’s working on like 5-7ish
At the same time, so some are not on his priority
Does he have thread or a discord to join? BEcause damn I am looking for models of an IBA and there aint shit
Sadly I dfont have acccess to that server would need an invite to the server
What all does he do, I 100 percent recognize the name but I can't place it
Tbh idk what he does I’ve heard of him many times tho
I think it was just the peq it’s the only thing really different with the early 2000’s mod
I think proj x ray
Ain't project x ray a bunch of Vietnam mods, if it was the peq idk why they would get sour over it
THey have have a early 2000's mod as well
Like the peq is the only thing I see missing
I think it's called Project X-ray OIF or smthn but the model is meh
Yea I am just gunna keep this mod till I can scan my own model
the early 2000s expansion that is
It’s a very very outdated updated version of the IBA vest BUT the pouches are dope
not a fan of their model I bought a IBA vest to make 3d scans of so I might try that
Oh neat
He deleted it 😭
bruhhhhhhhhh
I have the model of the IBA would anyone want me to release to the workshop?
Yes
DOes it matter if I make it depedent on RHS for there armor system?
Is there a reason why he deleted 2000's gear expansion?
He stole scripts
Damn 🙄😩
I got the model and am working on getting imported and textured
Legally of course
Alright
What about his alice stuff, because there are no good mods relating to the Alice rig now
Nope, but if you have a server setting those up via prefab would be pretty simple. though it did sound like he was coming back to solely work on the cold war stuff
Is this going to return?
Not likely
you know him/why ?
They were stolen assets I’m pretty sure
That’s why the 2000s expansion thing is gone and the Alice expansion is still on the workshop
The assets weren't stolen, it was one script. One singular script
The whole situation was thrown out of proportion. A simple dm conversation would have been sufficient instead of throwing it out for everyone ultimately dragging his name through mud. Now i bet everyone thinks he just steals all his shit which is fowl
How did anyone even find it lmao
sigh, arma community used to be so much more shareing...
guess its a reflection of the time we'r in
Real
But what do i know, im just and old broken has been 😄
*Rembering the "good old days" with Oxygen in half czech -Oxygen(Now called Model Builder)
It wasn't blown out of proportion, he ripped a script out of my mod, that was an open framework for anyone to use as a dependent to get the functionality from..
He instantly owned up to it and opted to remove his mods, which I can respect, I hope he turns shit around as I've said before.
"Now everyone thinks he just steals shit which is fowl" What would you call ripping a script from someone else's mod and reuploading it? Borrowing without permission? In that case, let me go borrow some of the PE mods since they're apparently open source.
I made the framework so it could be used by anyone without any issues of it being ND, literally sharing a functionality for attachments with everyone.
What's next, are people gonna ask to screw my wife too and call me a jerk for saying no?
And it was only found out because it was an exact 1:1 copy of mine, so when someone booted their server with both of our mods on, it literally crashed their server lmao, that's what happens when you do that.
His reasoning was that he "doesn't like dependencies on mods" meanwhile he had Zeliks gear slots as a dependency on the same mod
I fixed my comment go reread it because you once again didn't understand
I dont agree with what he did. I was saying to talk to him in dms then air it out in public wasn't cool.
I apologize for any misunderstanding
I didn't understand the thing you said in your edit after I said what you said? lol
I don't do private conversations in DM's, makes it easy for people to hide their part in things, and misconstrue events
Thats a wild take and yes you didn't because I was referring to everything he's made not just the one script
Thats why I fixed it to make what I meant clearer
It's not a wild take to expect people to be held accountable for their actions
Speaking in private avoids that
I was also tired, I just got done doing a 24hr fire guard watch
Because then things go on business as usual
No it doesn't but ok pal. Im not going further with this lol I said my piece on it and just like you I believe what I believe
idek why you think you have a say in the matter to begin with tbh
Because anyone can have a say
Could've said all this in a dm smh 😏
Like you did to me about OO in my milsim chat?
lmaooo you're still on about your milsim shit jesus dude
In front of all my guys who all btw agree was rude
Did they give you a hug after to make you feel better about it too
You'd think a guy in the military would have thicker skin, but ig they just let anyone in these days
Brother im holding back rn because of 2 things, 1 I'll get in trouble 2 I'll make myself look really bad. Just cause people join the military doesn't mean we cant feel disrespected. my feelings aren't hurt here its my honor, you made me look like I do sketch shit to hundreds of people when really yall are complacent.
Soldiers are fucking human btw we aren't fucking robots 😂
Wish you'd hold back more often, breath of fresh air when you aren't spouting your opinion on a topic that doesn't concern you
See
THAT was me being rude
Lmao
That was cute
That reminded me of when I was a Lil kid and couldn't come up with something more clever to say.
Im done with this conversation I said what I said let's not get ourselves in trouble, have a good day @umbral ingot
eh..
holds up a hand 🖐️
i.. i just want a delta carbine with a dive light on(under) it, if at all possible 😳
lmao yea you should have it from mctiddies mod
wich one?
this one (sorry if this is too off topic) "Operation Iraqi Freedom USGuns"
Yes and its fine man
ok ill give it a look, and thanks
Np
oouff (no offence but) 🤢 are those from bf2 mod they are awefull 🤮 (again no offence) but compaired with vanilla m16 carbines, they look like they are pre arma 2 iigets ... and i did not find any dive light ala Larry Wickers's delta carbine
Hmm I wonder what mod i was using
that other addon (not to be meantioned) was perfect, it had the right look, and it was not superbright like the rail mounted one from that light and lasers addon
You're looking for Attachment Framework
dos Attachments Framework have a dive light?
It does
idk if it's in the config to go in vanilla arsenal or not, but it has others as well
Okay, well im looking for some thing like
I know what you're looking for, it's in the mod lol
this
(random pic from google but its the right light)
a good ol 80/90's flashlight strapped to a gun pre ris/rail times
Yeah there's 2 barrel mounted lights
3 if you count the taped one
oh nono not to the barrel, it need to be under the forgrip, if you understand what i mean (sorry english isnt my first)
ah found the pic (and correct spelling of Larry Vickers 😳 😅 )
@umbral ingot I have sent you a DM
Sorry if i caused Rocking of the boat and drama, it was not my intention and i apologize many times, sorry 😳
Why is this Mod taken down?
I have no idea
Stole a script
There was a stolen script in the Alice expansion one to? I didn’t know that
No there wasn't?
Oh I thought I was schizo
His 2000s mod had the stolen code, which was deleted
Ah my bad I forgot which mod had the stolen script
You people need to Stop with all the half heard and hearsay rumor suff, it is no good and is offtropic.
Actually i heard DEE19 was a rogue AI that stole script from Arma modders to create a superweapon
Pls do not spread rumors, ty
Any chance the 40mm smoke rounds could get re-worked into another mod (unless they have already and I just didn't notice the announcement/update)?
He created a new version look up "back to 89"
YUSSSSSSSSS
Or something like that
is there an enf showcase thread for it?
not that im aware of
Its called echos of 85
Curious if you could add the American flag patch to the black RBA vest
Make it look super good just a suggestion
Don’t think he uses this thread anymore
Ah I have him in my DMs all go ask lol
I love you so much it looks sick
Fuck yes
is this available on EXP? these uniforms would look sick with the new faded out uniforms on there that look way better than vanilla
what happened to Echos of war vest?
it says its been disabled? I literally just discovered it and loved it for my Nam server ):
NVM, i see that a new stand alone Modulaer vest version is out and is better.
It’s probably not appropriate for Nam I’m ngl
Yeah nah Alice was adopted after Vietnam
you mean in low numbers during right?
If it’s an Alice rig it’s post war
Naw Alice came post war, M67 was adopted late war in varying numbers tho
They are called LCE’s
But they don’t have anything by that name in Arma they call them Alice. So we make due.
Alice isn’t appropriate for Vietnam, LCE and ALICE are not the same thing
cool. Thanks for you info dude.
If ya want you can make some, and that'd help wouldn't it?
Already did lol
@remote fableHey, I don't know if you know or not, but I found this glitch with my helmet! Enabled mods are shown in the screenshot..
what mod is this?
@remote fable
Yo what mod
Damn Nut, that’s hot
Recently have done better
These Hell Let Loose Vietnam leaks are sick
This is making me miss V67, might have to come back and play soon
But yall have done good things for the community with these mods.
They wish they had the same quality as ac
If only we had their budget lol 😂
Just for you holt
Amazing @leaden quarry
This is so fucking hot
