WIP Usable Tank
#31

Well the stock model already has LODS I think, I'm yet to do a basic damage model but that shouldn't take too long, just some shrapnel on the ground and dints in the tank etc and smoke maybe.

And I will get someone else to do the slot.
This is a list of all the stock game model:

Body(Base Perfect Model?)
Body SH (Shadow I believe?)
L1 Body (LODS from distance?)
L1 Body SH
L2 Body
L3 Body
Head
Head SH
L1 Head
L1 Head SH
L2 Head
Gun
Gun SH
L1 Gun
L1 Gun SH
L2 Gun

I am going to have to make the entire 3D model again to put in the extra detail that is missing.

I have found a good looking Gmax tutorial which show me how to make a tank, this will help me redo the 3D model since it is quite retarded. The tracks are actually part of the main Body so if I try and manipulate them to cut out the wheels or anything then it will mutilate the tank and warp it lol . So looks like I'm redoing the entire tank from scratch, should be fun. Smile Ima give this Tut a try over the weekend and see how I go. It sais it is for the beginner modeller so it shouldn't be too hard.

Wish me Luck! Big Grin

Hehe, EnsignRo , My chosen tank is only armed with a Machine Gun and is based on the Jeep Mod, this is my first Mod I'm working on so pherhaps when I'm done I can start something more advanced, like a tank made from an Airplane, Except I don't do Java, Aparrently that is just too complicated and I should leave it to the Experts, So for now and pherhaps forever I will just be doing 3D and Hier.him editing.

Check your Pm's Please.

Thats why I said I don't do Java and never will unless I have a really Patient Mentor or a Really In-Depth Guide...

Or learn the basics with the online tutorials. When you get into even a bit it it's quite easy. Most of the commands can be concluded by yourself, just like I did in my CoD4 SP mod GSC code files.

Please tell when you start doing the Java training course, since I wanna wait 21 days before answering any Java related questions then.

Just kidding... :mrgreen:

" You’re a real whiz at HTML, understand CGI programming (in Perl,
AppleScript, Visual Basic, or some other popular CGI language) pretty
well, and want to move on to the next level in Web page design.

You had some Basic or Pascal in school and you have a basic grasp of
what programming is, but you’ve heard Java is easy to learn, really
powerful, and very cool.

You’ve programmed C and C++ for many years, you’ve heard this Java
thing is becoming really popular and you’re wondering what all the fuss
is all about."

I'm counting on you, buddy ;D

EDIT:Ok So I have started my Modelling and so far it is looking quite decent, my sizes are are not correct at this time but I will stretch my model etc when I have finished it. Sorry I can't post WIP shots because I'm out of internet and nothing will load.
(All of this is completely new model)
What I have finished:
Main Tank shape
Tracks
The guard on top of the Tracks
The side guard for the Tracks
Machine gun
Main viewpoint window
The "Neck" of the tank(The part between the Main tank shape and Head)

What I'm yet to do:
Rear Engine Compartment etc.
Turret(Head)
New Commander hatch for Turret
Wheels for tank
Exahaust pipe
Fog Light
And lots of small various details

I think that is all.
So new 3D model is roughly 30-40% complete IMO.

I'm very surprised you guys are not pulling the tank models from TOW.
I beleive they are from the same engine.

That was a fake mate, he used a paint program to put the sub picture on a flyable cockpit.....
