sn1per 0 Posted May 30, 2002 Another jet coming up. No cars, apcs or tanks. What's the deal? Is it harder to create ground units than it is to create planes? I would rather have btr or other wheeled (and armed) personnel carrier than any plane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Intruder 0 Posted May 30, 2002 Actually it is harder to create ground vehicles than fixed wing aircraft, thats because aircraft (fixed wing jets) have less moving parts to animate. This should be out soon: http://dkm-mod.unitedgaming.net/ox/potw.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted May 30, 2002 ADATS....sweet! OK, it wasn't around in service in 1985, but I want it anyway. I assume you will be able to target ground and air targets with it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sn1per 0 Posted May 30, 2002 Yep, I thought so. Too bad, hopefully modder have enough dedication to create something anyway for us grunts Ond, uh, what is that missile launcher thingy? Some sort of MLRS or AA/AT missile platform? Looks great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â <span id='postcolor'> it is both at and aa Canada has some and they are amazing they can destroy a tank at 8000m that is so sweet but back onto the topic yes vehicles are harder to make because there is alot more internals as well instead of just a cockpit and a some times a big open space for the troops vehicles have gunner stations, Driving station, command station and some times troop carring areas.

VXR 9 Posted May 30, 2002 the M109 ADATs does not exist i think because there is only a drawning of it much addons are ready but we need the tool of bis to make the pbos because with the tools we now have you can get bugs in addons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scorpio 0 Posted May 30, 2002 Well, some modellers frankly dont have a damn about the community, im sorry to say, like me. We do it for their liking, and for our entertainment. But i agree, it has been a while since anybody made a ground model Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KTottE 0 Posted May 30, 2002 What? You don't get FileBank with Oxygen? Then how are you supposed to get everything ingame? I know you can use unofficial pbo-tools, but come on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KTottE 0 Posted May 31, 2002 =( I think I will cry now. I knew that they didn't release Visitor, but we need FileBank... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sn1per 0 Posted May 31, 2002 Hmm, I've never heard of these two, filebank and visitor. Vould someone please explain those? Filebank is quite obviously some sort of model/texture base? I'm not a modder (even though I would love to be) but anyway it would be good to know what the hell you gurus are talking about I guess I could do some moddin' but I don't want to spend my whole life in front of a computer, atleast not now when it's summer in Finland Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KTottE 0 Posted June 1, 2002 FileBank is BIS's own PBOTool (sort of). That's what they use to gather up all the p3d files, config.cpp:s and textures used by a model, and stuff it all into a .pbo. Visitor is the island-editor. That's what they used to make the islands for the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ran 0 Posted June 1, 2002 ktotte , who said you that filebank was a pbo encrypter ? lol it's maybe one of its etras , but it's a model and textures database first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KTottE 0 Posted June 1, 2002 Forgive my stupidness ;P From what I've been told, and from what I have pieced together from all the forums, I thought FileBank was the PBO tool. Apparently, it's a model and texture database as well. BUT, as you can see in this thread, it's used for PBO stuffing as well. And without it, we're screwed. (Pretty much) =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ran 0 Posted June 1, 2002 we're not screwed in anyway ..... oxygen , an unofficial pbo stuffer , some method and you got your model Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KTottE 0 Posted June 1, 2002 Well, Vixer said that using the 3rd party tools could cause bugs in your addon... which IMO is not good =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KTottE 0 Posted June 1, 2002 Care to explain what the vehicle to the right, and the vehicle to the left is? I can't tell what they are supposed to look like. Maybe I'm just cross-eyed at the moment, but... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stag 0 Posted June 1, 2002 One to the left will be a Fox scout car to the right, and purely for 1985 scenarios (Stopped using before 1990) is an Alvis Stalwart; a dedicated All-terrain Ammo truck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
