Vik's Reskins [Dev] RHS+MGP - EARLY WIP

Description
Information
This mod adds numerous retextures for vanilla, the mod Military Gear Pack, and RHSUSAF. These textures are for uniforms, vests, and helmets primarily. However, there are some other niche items available.

...It's a work in progress/early build!
This mod is still being worked on. As of initial upload, there is uniform retextures available for MGP mod, vest retextures available for RHS, and helmet retextures available for vanilla helmets and contact DLC helmets. More content to come for the proper full release, and future versions/sub-packs.

Currently, work is being done to double check the code for mistakes, improper inheritances, redundancies/inefficiencies, and renaming class names to not reference 'RSF'. Additional work is being done to add inventory and arsenal images of the gear. Some tests are available. Feedback is appreciated!

Content
This mod features custom made camouflages made by Vik in Photoshop and applied to the retexture process using the same program. Exceptions for GCAM: Found on a retexturing website that is since no longer available and I cannot find the name of the author. Exceptions for Soerland variants: made by Teslin.
Camos:
- Generic Camouflage (GCAM): Transitional camouflage inspired by MTP + Crye Precision's Multicam.
- Cabbage Variants: a proprietary fictional camo derived from brush and tiger stripe patterns. Variants include Cabbage, Arid, Winter, and Urban.
- Soerland Variants: a fictional camouflage inspired by the Swedish and Norwegian armed forces camouflages for the fictional nation of Soerland, an island-nation in the north sea. Variants include standard woodland, Winter, Desert, and Urban.
- Various solid colors intended to blend with MGP and RHS colorways. Ranger green is matched to the colors from the MGP mod. Olive colors are matched to the greens and MCs of RHS.

@Coyote, for having recently tried to retrieve only one article from an addon, and having to worry like crazy to understand how it was done, open your .p3d with Windows notepad, and do .paa searches /.rvmat/.nohq/.smdio/ and create a folder with all the paths you find, you will see it works. If you need a hand, send me a friend request, I'll take more time to explain.

@Zak Great question! Short Anser: No, it's not possible to my knowledge. The team leader vest is troublesome! The textures for the grenade pouches is using the default coyote brown RHS textures via a class call inside the p3d file. These files cannot be modified by the content restrictions of RHS. That's my theory of it so far. I remember last year, or earlier, I was trying to get the textures done for it, but I noticed they cannot be edited because they are calling on the grenade pouch textures from the IOTV if I recall correctly. Therefore, there may be a clever way to introduce some code into the items to get the teamleader variant working, but there are no guarantees. If there are other modmakers out there that have successfully managed to retexture these grenade pouches, I will try to emulate their efforts. If not, then when work resumes on the next update, I will make a second pass on attempting to finally get a fully textured Team Leader vest in the set.

Love this, great mod for retexed SPC vests. Was wondering if you thought about including the Teamleader vests at all?
