If CADPAT works well for you, take a look at Pencott Greenzone. Still a bit of a special snowflake pattern, but there are more people starting to use it. UR-Tactical and some European retailers have kit in it.

Flecktarn is very very dark. From a distance, it looks almost like a black blob. Great for very shadowy woods, especially in the fall, but doesn't quite work otherwise.

Some games don't allow Highlander, as apparently people get it confused as both Tan and Green. Mandrake seems to be more effective anyhow. UR-Tactical stocks gear in Kryptek.

Multicam is your standard go-to camo. Unfortunately, you also stick out like a sore thumb in the middle of summer if your field is very green or if there is not a lot of cover (like a big open field).

MARPAT is nice, but you won't be able to get gear for it (plate carrier, pouches, etc) because USMC runs Coyote Brown gear. If you wear it with CADPAT gear, it should fix your "too green" problem though.

ATACS... mixed feelings. From a distance, you'll look like a greenish-tan blob of vomit. Up close, you'll look like a greenish-tan blob of vomit. Gear is easy to find, but... you'll look like vomit lol.

There's also Multicam Tropic, but it's made up of about the same colours as CADPAT, so it'll be very green and a touch dark, so it might not do what you want.

So yeah, take a look at Pencott Greenzone and MARPAT a little more, as I think those are your best solutions. If you want a tan loadout, then look into Multicam or Pencott Badlands.
