mechastalin 0 Posted March 7, 2007 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.

Commando84 0 Posted March 7, 2007 looks ok the textures could been a bit more detailed and more dark but Keep up the nice work. Maybe ask RHS if you can use their old textures that came with ther stuff? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vulture2k1 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Yeah, the model seems to be detailed enough, but the textures need some rework IMHO :X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lukemax 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Keep up the good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granQ 293 Posted March 7, 2007 not saying this scripted thing will come for the btr. Was working on a mission and got this idea, I like it so I will try to keep it, but we will see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr burns 132 Posted March 8, 2007 http://granq.se/private/nvg.jpgnot saying this scripted thing will come for the btr. Was working on a mission and got this idea, I like it so I will try to keep it, but we will see. The grey´ish NV looks awesome! Somehow reminds me of Novalogics 'Comanche vs. Hokum' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granQ 293 Posted March 8, 2007 If you need i can help you with modelneed 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SEA DEMON 0 Posted March 8, 2007 i can change some parts of this model and make new textures. I have newest model Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plasman 0 Posted March 8, 2007 Yeah, the model seems to be detailed enough, but the textures need some rework IMHO :X 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shashman 0 Posted March 8, 2007 Agreed. Great to see it ingame and fully (apparently) functional, but those textures just don't fit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadow NX 1 Posted March 8, 2007 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granQ 293 Posted March 8, 2007 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..

granQ 293 Posted March 8, 2007 (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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mechastalin 0 Posted March 8, 2007 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattxr 9 Posted March 8, 2007 Is it selfshading? i dont think nothing can shade freely untill the tools come out, but it looks great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granQ 293 Posted March 8, 2007 Nice work Gran. I personally think it looks great but I may be a bit biased :PDid you change the guards.paa on the turret back or did I not get you the update last night? yeah not on the pictures but now it is.. however you gave me a texture with like 356x356, that gave me ctd. So now its 256x256. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commando84 0 Posted March 8, 2007 hehe getting better already. Yeah i get your objective granq, just that sometimes i've gotten so spoiled by all the late ofp r addons and then Arma stuff is so high polished too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MehMan 0 Posted March 8, 2007 Is it selfshading? i dont think nothing can shade freely untill the tools come out, but it looks great. Ah, just wanted to see if I am seeing right in that second picture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
