I was considering modelling a 2008 uparmored version.. things I noticed were, tires slightly bigger than Arma, mirrors slightly lower, entire chassie lower and adding mudflaps. Also wanted to add anti sniper system ( round orb on the back end) and anti IED system, check them out at militaryphotos.net

nice job so far though, keep up the good work

It does look sweet, but i just hope it lasts a bit longer than the BIS hummers. There death traps and in the hands of the AI there pretty crap.

Not really. They're aren't even made by the same company. BAE makes CROWS while Kongsberg makes Protector.

The CROWS-II, which has only been announced by BAE ~12 days ago, is ALOT like the Protector but CROWS (I) differs significantly. By the way...the Kongsberg Protector uses BAE thermal sights...

Here's the next gen CROWS-II:

You'll notice the BAE thermal optic just below the weapon and ammo can and feed system are VERY similar to one on Protector...well, cause they are the same thermal unit.

CROWS:

Is different from Protector:

And thus you have been schooled - free of charge of course wink_o.gif.

LEXINGTON, Mass., May 20 (UPI) -- Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace has subcontracted BAE Systems for thermal imaging modules under the U.S. Army Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station II program.

the weapons platform itself was contracted to Kongsberg for them to make a variant of the protector for the humvee's, the only major difference is the optics and station in the vehicle

Damn that thing is fugly tounge2.gif But since it's just as fugly as in real life I must say you are spot on and are doing a great job tounge2.gifbiggrin_o.gifwink_o.gif

Progress looks very good. I wanted to say you should lower the ground clearence as all the added weight makes it hang a bit lower, but it seems you already did.

There are many different version of the HMMWV out there though. I personally think there are nicer gunner stations (turrets), but luckily the rest that is often theonly thing that is different from other HMMWV's, so if you want to do different version all you have to do is change the turret. But for now, I guess one version is more than enough work.

Keep it up!

The bumper is a bit too thick. It looks too heavy so to speak.

But the rest is looking very good, the batteries crapped out this weekend when I was looking thrue a brand new humvee on a open house of the dutch army. With some other Nato countries represented. But the humvee was fully kitted out with all sorts of stuff, actually there isnt that much space in the front for the co driver. And I didnt even have all the equipment on.

It was completly desert tan, except the bumpers front and back were painted matt black.

And the inside of the doors/interior had a 2cm layer of that soft foam stuff you would put inside your guncase.

It wasnt standing as low as the humvee your making on the last pictures.

I cannot believe I dont have pictures of that. I couldnt find batteries anywhere. sad_o.gif

I wonder if rear lights shouldn't have their own model, not just texture.

How about destrution? Have you seen how ArmA2 hummers blow up? Maybe you should try to do something similar? ;p

Any plans to make better engine sounds? I hate every default vehicle sound. Maybe partly because of the same poor sound system they still use. Going from low RPM to high RPM with the same sample! mad_o.gif

Looks good! biggrin_o.gif

If you wanted to model a correct M1114 HMMV, then the old doors you had were perfect. The new ones you have are like ones on a M1151 HMMV, there are differences to them.

But as far as I can see, also M1114 HMMV have the similar doors as M1151 HMMV, look:

and M1151:
