Maybe this can be added in Arma

what the hell is that thing?

That's ... kinda cool

[vilas 478]

yeah, looks cool

Maybe this can be added in Arma

problem is in track movement animation,

model is very easy, maybe day or 2, but track is problematic to animate,

track movement in game engine is realized by texture movement not by belt elements movement ,

animating those model blocks would take huuuuuuuuuuge model.cfg to write, and than hoping that loop will work

Looks like something from WH40K.

You could even plough some fields with it.

I saw that the other day. Thought it seemed weird because it seems like it can hold less equipment than present landing craft. I think I would take LCACs over those any day but I guess those are smaller so maybe having more of them would make it easier.

That thing is really ugly! But kind of cool too... ( and if we believe the features in the video, is really useful ).

If you read the article, it states that it is just the prototype in the pictures and that the real version will be twice the size. Can carry 3 tanks and a Humvee.

Ah okay thank you. I had only seen pictures the other day.
