BTR-80 APC for OPFOR

Recommended Posts

Edit: BTR has been released!

Download

GranQ and I got together and decided to port a BTR-80 from OFP to ArmA. It's based on Sea Demon's original BTR-80. The configs should be easily adapted to other BTR models as well so I may port over the BTR-60/70 after this is released.

I don't mind that you link to some vague image hosting site. But please next time put a NSFW warning on for the ads, because I am sitting here in a crowded living room wink_o.gif

looks ok the textures could been a bit more detailed and more dark tounge2.gif but Keep up the nice work. Maybe ask RHS if you can use their old textures that came with ther stuff?

Yeah, the model seems to be detailed enough, but the textures need some rework IMHO :X

If you need i can help you with model

need some fix

I send it to you by the end of the day, then you can have a look, see if anything you want to do?

I would like to release kinda quickly, so people that maybe working on some other wheeled apc can see how we done, copy and get their stuff working.

So I rather just go with this model and then help you/mecha..whoever to make a better package, with more versions in it and better textures.

I concur.

ArmA texture standards are quite high, any “home made†addon will have to match these standards otherwise the vehicle will look odd / toy-like when compared to its surroundings. The model itself is great anyway. Good work smile_o.gif

Agreed. Great to see it ingame and fully (apparently) functional, but those textures just don't fit

If the proper tools would be availeable i think you would be surprised how flashy that thing could already look with all the bumpmaps and shiny effects.

However a bit work on the textures is never bad.

too bad people cant understand why I work with this, name on addon released with a working turret.. exactly, thats why I do this, so others can see how it to be made and then put their high quality stuff out.

Yeap we lack bumpmapping and stuff, not because we need the tools, but lack the knowledge kinda.

EDIT: yeap fully functional, so far, my NVG (gunner only), smokelaunchers, animations for some hatches (driver view), wheels and turret working ofcourse, but not the dampers..

(yes I know I can edit, but since this is a new post..)

Anyway, reworked some parts and since I was ingame I thought I take some new screens, judge this instead.

Seadeamon, sorry for the bad version I gave you URL to, uploading this one soon.

Nice work Gran. I personally think it looks great but I may be a bit biased :P

Did you change the guards.paa on the turret back or did I not get you the update last night?

Is it selfshading?

i dont think nothing can shade freely untill the tools come out, but it looks great.
