Got some bugs; the woodland Mortar Carrier variants still have tan components and all of the woodland Strykers with the exception of the MEVs have the wrong vehicleClass, since they're also in the same category as the Desert variants.

[jones140 10]

did testing new woodland looks good along with vehicle class

the - Increased armour values has had little effect most of them can be destroyed with 1 maybe 2 rpg's most of the time sorry

Thanks for the new release Deltagamer :D! Really nice to see the fixes and woodland variants, your hardwork on these is greatly appreciated!

Minor Issue: The textures of the 'addon' items on top look quite low resolution (pictured). The front set of attached items, do slightly reduce the visibility of the driver while turned out, but I have no idea if this is something the US military would do. The rear cargo 'addons' also would block the rear top hatches from being used.

Here are some things that I think would really be the icing on the cake, I believe you already mentioned you had plans for some of them:

Picture in picture displays/ability for driver to use interior LOD without having to turnout/use fixed camera would be epic (working speedometer would be great if this was implemented)! Making the driver experience better/viewpoint less fixed helps to lower potential boredom due to lack of situational awareness.

Being really pedantic here but Perhaps making the first cargo seat (the one the first passenger will take) the one the left side, directly behind the driver as this is the closest seat to the crew and the most useful for a squad leader to occupy as with a range based VOIP system like ACRE it would allow the squad leader better direct comms with the driver and a little bit of visibility towards those PIP screens.

Animated openable rear door :D!

I'm uploading a hotfix for the class issue right now. As for the armour its accurate, your typical RPG is normally around 40mm so considering how thick the armour is on the stryker you won't get anything better unless you use the SLAT version as from my testing it can manage around 2 PCML rockets with slats. The quote below is from a link warlord gave that is basically everything I need to know about them.

High hardness steel hull to defeat 7.62mm ball.

MEXAS composite/ceramic module bolted to hull structure to defeat 14.5mm ball.

Anti-mine undercarriage armor. Spall liners.

@Sonsalt6 Thanks :)

Normally the strykers can be packed with far more equipment on top, here's a link to how much they normally have http://i.imgur.com/LKWm5K4.jpg. I will get higher res textures for the hull equipment at some point. As for the rear hatches being blocked this isn't really a problem as I'm not going to be implementing FFV straight away due to me not having a lot of time to spare as I'm working on other mods as well. Everything else you mentioned will come eventually and i'll consider changing the cargo positions later on at some point.

@Foxhound Thanks again :)

By the way, what ur next vehicle?

None, modding is taking up a lot of my time and I still have a lot of other mods to work on.

This mod sure looks interesting but may I suggest putting the Strykers under the NATO Armored category in the editor? This in my opinion helps to reduce clutter in the editor

Wouldn't that clutter it even more? I added in Stryker Pack - Desert and Stryker Pack - Woodland since there would be so much in just the armoured section of NATO making it harder to navigate etc.

First of let me say I'm really enjoying your work so far, contrary to other mods this vehicle feels heavy and that makes it great to drive. Also love that you can see the interior of the vehicle when turned out! But this also leads me to 2 questions:

1) Since the interior is already modeled (regardless of low texture qual, I really dont care) would it be difficult to see the interior when turned in as well? I am no addon-maker so I'm completely oblivious to this, but possibly severely underestimating this wouldn't it just be a matter of either cutting out the viewports (which seem modeled in the hatch already, or pasting some picture-in-picture windows onto the viewports? (Let me finish this by saying the first person view turned in is pretty decent compared to other vehicles)

2) when turned out in atleast the ATGMV variant I can't see the mirrors on the vehicle while they are modeled in 3rd person view and should be in the drivers arc of view. Will working mirrors be added on these vehicles in the future?

Other than these two question I think you already have a very playable mod, thanks for your hard work!

PS. are there any plans to replace the mini Spike missile on the ATGMV by TOW2s?

Great work deltagamer. I have been using Strykers constantly.

My only suggestion is add the digital compass reading like we have in vanilla armored vehicles. As a Vehicle Commander, it is important to be able to say to driver, "Turn to Two-Eight-Zero." At the moment, we have to estimate the degrees using the compass at the top of the screen.

This may be an issue with ACE, so if it works in vanilla please ignore, but the anti-tank Stryker will fire missile, but it will not hit target. The missile just disappears.

Hello guys,

 

so I was wondering if there is still someone working on this?

Looks nice, but the only real downside is, the fact that the wheels dont move when driving the vehicle.

 

Have a nice evening!

You could try the strykers in the CUP pack.  They work and look better.

As much as I like the Strykers there I don't feel like downloading all 3GB worth of files--especially when lots of vehicles there pretty much overlap RHS content--is worth it.

Congratulations for adding absolutely nothing to the conversation.

 

All I am alluding to is currently the only way to get working Strykers in game--the primary Armored Personnel Carrier of the US Army--is to download a 3GB mod which contains a lot of redundancy.

This mod is no longer being worked on, my work is included within CUP so if you're desperate you know where to look. If it was 10 years ago I would probably agree that 3GB is too much to download but with today's technology I find that excuse to be ridiculous (with the rare exception that is). Especially when delta patching allows one time downloads with small file size updates.
