    Creating a Realistic Field Dressing

    =- The Field Dressing -=




    A field dressing or battle dressing is a kind of bandage intended to be carried by soldiers for immediate use in case of (typically gunshot) wounds. It consists of a large pad of absorbent cloth, attached to the middle of a strip of thin fabric used to bind the pad in place. Field dressings are issued in sealed waterproof pouches to keep them clean and dry; the pouch can be torn open when required.

    In combat, each soldier carries one field dressing ready for immediate use. Standard doctrine is that a casualty's dressing should be used rather than the rescuer's - the rescuer may need to help another casualty, or be helped himself, whereas the original casualty is not going to make any other use of his own dressing. Because of this, it is important that soldiers know where to find their comrades' field dressings, and infantry units typically have their own SOP stating where they should be carried. British Army uniforms issued in the past included dedicated field dressing pockets, but the current clothing does not. Instead, a common location for field dressings is the left shoulder-strap of the webbing, either held in place with gaffer tape or contained in a small pouch that is not issued but can be purchased from several civilian suppliers. -Wikipedia

    In Project Reality:



    Project Reality portrayed an English field dressing accurately, however, my only concerns is that they don’t have one for the Chinese or the Arabic version, and this is pretty ironic because the UK are fighting China while the Chinese are using their field dressing, and the United States are fighting the MEC but the MEC are also using the English field dressing. This may not sounds too much of a hassle but it doesn’t make sense how the other nations’ military medic could possibly understand the writing and the description in English.


    So I decided to create my own Beta example of the Chinese and the MEC version of the field dressing.



    Original Description:




    Chinese Version:



    Translation:

    Please notes that the translation for the English-Chinese may not be really clear, with some minor mistakes. So if you would like to help me make the adjustment, please feel free to post.

                  Well, I have to admit it - I am impressed. That is pretty funny and something I would never have paid attention to. While sometimes you make very long posts, Katie, & it looks like you just go on and on about one thing & you are just being very nit-picky; you are, in reality, very detail-oriented. This can be a very useful thing when looking at things like the writing on the field dressings in this game. While everyone might not appreciate such attention to detail; it is all those tiny details that make this game so cool.
                  And, BTW, I think Smokejumper's point about the Arabs using the bandages off their heads is a valid one and a funny one, too.

                      Hmm, guess somethings are crucial to game where the Devs time is concerned and some things aren't.

                      I'd like to say go ask a Dev whether the bandages are hard coded or something like that, but I hear you've got a problem posting on the PR forums recently :)

                        I don't think it would've been that hard, all you have to do is reskin the field dressing like the way it was but remove the English description and replace it with the Chinese and Arabic.

                        , but I hear you've got a problem posting on the PR forums recently :)
                        Stop saying that, you're embarassing me :rofl:

                          Im sorry but shouldnt DEV's focuse on something more important?? Like adding more effects when you get hit, so you cant shoot insta head shot after eating 3 M4 bullets.

                          EDIT: Ok i edited it.

                            1.) Why the hell did you have to copied my first post, its already huge enough

                            2.) Changing description isn't even that hard, it should only took like a couple of minutes because I already got a layout for it, all you have to do is edit the Field Dressing skin, seriously basic stuff.

                            3.) You can't blame the DEV the 3 headshots kill, its the ping fault. So I really recommend you playing on the server with lower ping.


                            Also, because the developers wouldn't post on my ideas thread, I won't even bother making another new topic about new suggestions, which is too bad because there's alot of thing I already preplanned.

                              Im not saying that i have to hit ppl 3 times in the head in order to kill them, and if i have to its EA/Dice's fault. What im saying is that ppl can take 3 M4 bullets and still have deadly accuracy.

                              And if you have a suggestion, just post it at Realitymod.com suggestions and feedback forum:). Just dont suggest fastropes

                              Edit: I just posted a link to this tread on that forum:)
