Espionage Wars V6: It's like a party but everyone's throwing up. - Garry's Mod

Newb question: How do you put Faction Logos in Model textures.

You need to edit the textures of the models, like patchs in the uniforms or something like that, find the VTF fof the uniform, open it and export the texture and later edit it, probably you need to edit the normal map too. You can use photoshop to edit it.

I have a question if I wish to conduct raids on my own people within my own territory that is fine?

[QUOTE=Minimole;50477965]I honestly forgot about that at the moment because of how frustrated I am here. Even when trying to do a serious faction people still give me shit and laugh because their patrol cars are compacts and Fiats.[/QUOTE] You got ridiculed because you were at first just stealing vehicles from the population (which is an absurd thing for a security company to do), then when you actually have vehicles of your own you give them a fleet of battered old 1960s Fiat 500s because of 'budgetary reasons'. Even the least competent security firm would have the plain common sense to budget for decent patrol vehicles/transport. Even so, this is Espionage Wars. as much as we encourage a sense of realism, it's generally preferred that you stretch your imaginary (and unlimited) budget to allow for sensible cars rather than have your faction roll around in what are essentially clown cars then complain when nobody takes you seriously. [quote]Because Infab starts doing stuff in Detroit so I go there and nothing happens, Some things happen in Russia I move some of my dudes there and nothing happens,[/quote] Welcome to Espionage Wars. You're not the only one who's ever deployed to a conflict zone where nothing has happened. [quote]Finally some shit goes down in NYC and I'm a bit tired of still being seen as just "Silly Minimole and his wacky faction".[/quote] Much as you might claim to be taking this seriously, your previous factions and their exploits really make it difficult to believe. [quote]I also made that while sleep deprived and didn't think it through more just out of frustration and generally just being tired of trying.[/quote] We've all done stupid things whilst sleep deprived, I don't think anyone will object if you just un-do it and claim it never happened.

It severely damaged everyone's ability to take you seriously, and FlintValley really did not help. It seemed like you went out of your way to make FlintValley the most generic and stereotypically boring military group as you could, just because you were told you weren't taking things seriously enough. It was like when you tell off a small child for messing around and they then mock you by acting overly serious afterwards. I'm not saying it's right for people to ignore your faction entirely, but it's easy to understand why they might.

You might also want to try to maybe reach out to people, instead of waiting for them to come to you.

[/QUOTE] I'm actually surprised because it wasn't my intention with Flintvalley. I thought it was an actual solid faction, I put all of my effort I had at the time in the poses and not being afraid of having my own guys die. They are actually my inspiration for Goldtop Security in terms of all the effort I put in the posing, like I used lots of reference pictures and made sure every ragdoll was posed and flowed well in the composition. I feel as if I had more attention to details when I was using Flintvalley. Little things like the pics below of My old faction encountering Science guy's dudes after a crash, beside it two of my Soldiers pushing an old car that's blocking the road.

I need to know how to improve and what I am doing wrong but at the same time I need you guys to work with me here. I really am trying to be more serious with my faction. I'm not going to derail this thread any longer. Sorry for the rant guys.

[QUOTE]Following to hostage taking of the Tbonian Pilot and SABRE Employee, Kraaivuur has put operation "Kerslig" into effect. This operation has been in the planning stages since the end of the Baltian War. Major DeVoork (Former commander of Witroofvoel base on the polish border] is the C.O of the Operation and has spent the last few days ensuring that all branches of Kraaivuur Intl involved know their duties. The attack began at 6:00 EET on the 8th of June. The offensive was signaled to start when KAP MIGs bombarded artillery and tank emplacements on the outskirts of the city, and also dropped flyers warning the civilian population to evacuate the city. It was followed by a artillery bombardment by RATEL 90s armed with the same type of cannon used by Eland tanks. After several small breakthrougs in the early afternoon the offensive ground to a halt, with AWA and Allainse forces taking a heavy toll on the advancing troops. Operation Kerslig marked the first field use of the KVIGA-5, with it being used against tanks and sniper nests to good effect. Kraaivuur Forces also released 2 PSAs to the public, one showing the civilian casualties of the Daraa Massacre, another less circulated one showed Kraaivuur contractors posing infront of a mural of the disposed Syrian president.[/QUOTE] Syria; [URL=http://s1053.photobucket.com/user/Redcoat893/media/20160608205313_1_zps1dvhzeov.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1053.photobucket.com/albums/s463/Redcoat893/20160608205313_1_zps1dvhzeov.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [QUOTE]DeVoork briefing several officers on the offensive.

I just thought I should clarify because there's some misconceptions regarding the Central Pact and its members; Socialism is not a requirement. And none of the countries are pure socialist. Tbonia is practically capitalist now despite having socialist roots, Boliveria has a socialist party but so do most other countries in the world. Kuril is capatalist and Karaq say they're socialists but they're pretty lenient in everything. It's always been like this I don't know why some of you automatically assume it's a socialist only coalition.

China's war would be one of defense but nobody is going to be picking a fight with China, they just want North Korea. It was already voted by the GMs that China wouldn't be helping North Korea in any way, just like in real life since it isn't the 1950s and North Korea has burned out of allies after they started threatening with nuclear war.
