Creating female characters for Arma 3 project

[Grihm]

Hi all. First time member, first time writer, very first time blender.

In short, we are a few people who are creating an Arma 3 RP server and we need to make our own Arma 3 female soldiers, and i just wanted to start out easy and ask one thing.
The male models in the game is as it seems on the same scale more or less. Do we need to make the females that scale as well for having the uniforms etc to fit or will these adjust to the size of the model?

This is all very new for me, but at least it does seem "easy" enough with the standard model you customize at the beginning. I can probably shape that into a working product without breaking it, but the textures like skin and pores look like crap when i am working with it. I´m guessing my rendering is not as it should be or something.

If you know of any tutorial series that deals in this in specific, i would very much appreciate a link.
Since i´m new at this, i do not know even what things are called, so searching for it is a bit tricky.


Best Regards
Grihm

I fear that I can only help with general 3D aspects, as creating mods for ARMA requires specific knowledge of the ARMA engine, which I do not posess.
What I do know is that you can probably use MakeHuman to model your characters, then export them to a 3D editor like Blender, to prepare your meshes for the game. I think your best chances will be to use the MH forums for questions about how to get your characters from MakeHuman to a 3D tool such as Blender, and then ask the ARMA community for help on how to create ARMA assets using Blender.

Thank you. We have a scripter who creates functions for modded items etc so we are set for that, but not the models. I will check out the other forums as well and see what it gives.

I did a model with this tutorial, but i cannot export it as an Arma file sadly, so i don´t know what to do with it when i´m done :/
