adumb 0 Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) Nice work Adumb, I am impressed with the suspension details. Thanks! I was able to find a scale model, of all things. Got all kinds of great details from it. Its mind blowing how much time they spend hand making and hand painting some of that stuff. Edited July 14, 2013 by Adumb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adumb 0 Posted July 14, 2013 Yeah, I wonder you plan to arm these things with some sort of CROWS? Yes, I'm working on that as I type this. Getting everything to work in-game is gonna be fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damian90 697 Posted July 15, 2013 Yes, I'm working on that as I type this. Getting everything to work in-game is gonna be fun! Ha, I discussed some time ago with Gurdy issues with PhysX in case of tracked vehicles, and a rumors about vehicles modularity and capabilities such option would give addon makers. So yeah, it will be fun. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cunico 995 Posted July 15, 2013 Question, what program are you using to model? I have been using 3dsMax but it's really starting to piss me off with the crashes and such. Is this blender? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PuFu 4600 Posted July 15, 2013 Question, what program are you using to model? I have been using 3dsMax but it's really starting to piss me off with the crashes and such. Is this blender? I have been using 3ds max commercially since version 7. For modelling purposes, max rarely crashes (once a year), if at all. And i am talking 10mil+ polygons meshes here. It is not the most stable software out there, but is far from crashing when modelling low-med poly game content. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like Pufu, I've been using 3ds Max (2011 and 2012 for arma work) for quite a while... mine crashes maybe once every couple of days, though! :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PuFu 4600 Posted July 15, 2013 Like Pufu, I've been using 3ds Max (2011 and 2012 for arma work) for quite a while... mine crashes maybe once every couple of days, though! :p good christ gurdy, you should really do something about your max, seems sort of sick as a side note, i am using max daily, be it at home for addon or commercial work, or at the office. And while at my office/work i have a crash once every 3 days on average, i am pushing the scenes up to 20 mil polys, 12k textures, vray proxies, and 3000+ px render resolutions. Not to say about the amount of plugins and scripts used on a daily basis, scenes merges and shit max wrongfully writes in the track editor and or dope sheet. One plug that crashes my scene every now and then is the TB pro though, especially when the stack has 5-10 modifiers :) On topic: ohh, somehow i missed this thread thit far: great work everyone involved here. kudos!

gurdy 479 Posted July 21, 2013 Hello everyone, time for a small update! I'm really trying to have something substantial to post every week... but this isn't one of those weeks. :p Here's a teaser of my WIP (like... very WIP) M1A1 AIM with TUSK I: Click here for a bigger view! In keeping with my plan to accommodate as many circumstances as I can, the paint schemes planned for the M1A1 are as follows: CARC (shown) 3-tone NATO UNO White 3-tone Australian You'll probably see some of the other variants (such as the as-of-yet unshown M1 Panther II) in Olive Drab rather than 3-tone NATO, if it's more appropriate. Who doesn't love more camos? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
