SgtNick 0 Posted August 22, 2003 Just wondering if anyone is working on the Hummer Avenger anti-aircraft missile systems with the two quad box stinger missile launchers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted August 22, 2003 Due to OFPs engine limitations, it is extremely hard to equip a wheeled vehicle with any sort of guided missile (AA or AT). The best workaround at the moment seems to be to create a "fake" wheeled vehicle from a tank-class (tracked) vehicle, but the drawback then is that it steers and handles like a tank instead of a car... Still, I hope someone starts making this kind of stuff, even if it's a static object or tracked vehicle class. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eviscerator 0 Posted August 22, 2003 Not possible to make in OFP, or at least coded how it would normally be (to act like a car that fires missiles), the OFP engine doesnt allow this, the only way it would be possible to have a moving avenger is to code it like a tank, and it can then swivel on the spot and the wheels no longer rotate as the car turns, the other way to do it is to make it a static AA object, although thats pretty useless...

Shashman 0 Posted August 22, 2003 How abouts a HUMRAAM? AMRAAM armed version of the Avenger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SgtNick 0 Posted August 22, 2003 Can anyone make it as a static model with a remote control ( if Possible) so if it gets hit you dont blow up too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakerod 254 Posted August 22, 2003 Well im sure you could do a script somehow that would atleast make it look like it would fire missiles. and even if u cant it also has two miniguns on it which could be used for AA. Atleast u would have one with something on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted August 22, 2003 I just don't get people's opposition to having these kind of vehicles as tank-class. The Swiss mod Piranha does this pretty successfully. IMHO, not handling exactly like a wheeled vehicle should is a small price to pay for having a vehicle ingame which would otherwise not exist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted August 22, 2003 I don't know about you, but if it looks like a car...but steers like a tank I find it extremely off-putting.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SgtNick 0 Posted August 22, 2003 The tracks thing does not matter. There is a Humvee ( over snow version ) that is fitted with mini triangle tracks for each wheel for use in snow, like the back of a snowmoble. But on dirt I don't know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sxep 0 Posted August 22, 2003 I´m sure Footmunch will Break the engine limitation and with the missiles. Then the avenger System will be posible. Keep your fingers X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SgtNick 0 Posted August 22, 2003 Ok this is a crazy idea from the beginning. Take the hull of a Bradley ( the bottom part ) replace the turret with that of a LAV-AD OR Make it all-terrain and amphibious and you have got one hell of a anti-aircraft killer. The Linebacker is ( OK ). But it has a 25mm bushmaster and Stingers (four of them ready to fire). The LAV-AD has a GAU-12 25mm Equaliser gatling gun with 1,800 rpm fire and Mistral missiles or Stingers with 8 ready to fire. And with the limits on firing missiles from a wheeled vehicle this may work. Hell the U.S.Army may like it enough to build some of there own. Â Like I said before just a crazy idea.
