Paiting ghillie parts

[liscion 44]

Hey guys,

 

I'm aware that the full suit (which I currently have) can't be painted due to a bug. However, I read some posts from people saying the hood can be painted. However, when I try to drag the spray-can to the hood, it just appears red (as in: not possible).

 

Am I doing something wrong?

 

I tried the same with the bushrag, which also doesn't work for me.

 

Another thing: I'm usually in a 24/7 daylight server.  When wearing the full suit for a long period of time, I'm overheating. Is it better to use the bushrag instead or would that have the same effect?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

#edit: the spray-can is 100% full, not damaged.

  I have painted the hood, bush rag and gun wrap.  I prefer the "mossy" look which is green AND black so I am not sure why it isn't working.  It CAN be done I can assure you of that at least.  GOOD LUCK!

Anyone been able to paint it?  Also anyone found a bipod?

Ghillie suits have always been paintable I believe.

 

Bipods simply are not in anymore.

Full Ghillie Suits is what he is referring to. The full ghillies can't be painted.

In order to paint it a different color, you have to use green first.

Thanks SGTHornet! Starting with green works indeed ^^
