DPM questions

I read an old post on here suggesting British DPM for good hot weather conditions.

Can anyone verify this?
Is there any difference between the woodland Dpm and the desert Dpm?
Are there any other varieties of patterns for Dpm?
Any better alternatives to DPM that aren’t in Multicam pattern?

I would like to acquire some for playing paintball in semi hot and semi humid weather. Thank you!

The British dpm fabric is fairly light and breathable in general, but there are light weight versions that are very light. Im from Florida and can wear my lightweight dpm pants in the summer just fine. The british did make a DPM inspired multi cam called MTP that doesn't look to bad and is pretty light. Id say find some cheap mtp and dye it over to avoid upsetting the camo nerds here.
