Remove backpacks

[Frantic]

Hej...is it possible to remove backpacks from units?!?

cause i have the USMC units, and the west units have such a big backpack, so it would be nice to have this units without their backpack, cause the backpack makes the units bigger and so they got more hitpoints then the other units...

If the units don't have custom action/script/hidden selections/or sumtin like that to do that, then only by editing the model itself...

Or by editing the textures...

What do you mean by hitpoints?

Like amount of life?

Or area where a guy can be hit?

If then latter, it does not matter, I'm pretty sure shooting the backpack doesn't hurt the unit, its like shooting the top a RPG guys rocket tube. Nothing happens unless the game engine picks it up and just hurts the guy...

hmmm...editing units ?!?...lol...havent tried it out yet...is it difficult?

and to the hitpoints...i mean that u can shoot in the backpack from the side and u will injure the unit with it...its not unreal...cause of the nato ammo, this ammo changes his way inside the body and ofcourse a backpack...
so u can kill an unit by hitting only the backpack by using a G36...and thats unfair, cause the east units got a smaller backpack...

Well, yeah, then addon editing is for you. Not the easiest thing to jump into, but the community's here.
 
One thing, your west troops, how could they go without their portable PS2s? C'mon, gotta have some fun out on an op.

Well, actually it's not that difficult...
More diffcult would probably be setting up the needed software so that it works ;D
BIS makes their software a bit 'hinky' to install sometimes...

But, a few hours with O2 and you could easily remove the packbacks...
