Hi Nat!I know you are working on the vehicle pack but I hope you decide to post the troop ship individually on your site too! I like to have "options" should I decide not to use the .par files off-line. So please post it - or e-mail it to me if you don't mind. Speedbrake ------------------

OK, thats a fair one actually.. didn't think of that. I finished it about an hour ago, had to try out a couple of things... so it gets nice burn marks where parts explode..I'll pack it up and post it in a few mins, so check there soon (5 mins or so) ~Nat~ IP: Logged |

Thanks!As long as your not sure what to do until you do it - how about redoing the landing craft to a proper size to use with the troop ships for an invasion? LOL! IP: Logged |

well, the Gallion is comming along nicely.. most of the texturing done, need to add cannons though and a few little details, a good pic woud come in handy though.. just been knockin it out from memory of the general shape Didn't we have landing craft? never noticed the size to be honest, but if they are too big it wont take much at all to just rize the object, so for a break from the gallion I'll do that now.

Nat, as you are the guru of floating vehicles, have you or anyone else thought of making landing craft/troop carriers? I love you Pacific ships, but are there any ETO vehicles out there. Just a thought.... IP: Logged |

Using the hack I discovered when I did the moving boats and ground objects last Feb, it is VERY possible and would be extremely cool to have a landing craft approach the shore and actually have a vehicle drive up on the beach! It's all in the DOFs and really wouldn't be tough at all.Again though I'm up to my eyeballs in projects right now (plus moving this coming week) but if no one else takes this on I will eventually. Nat, it's nice to have someone doing ships again. For a while there I was the only one messing with them. [This message has been edited by Pete Hawk (edited 05-13-2000).] IP: Logged |

Actually Nat i think the landing craft we have had for some time is way too small - not too large.Frankly - I like Pete's idea about moving landing craft and vehicles if it is possible. IP: Logged |

Viper, thanks for the compliment but I do think the the "guru" of all ground units is Pete, he doesn't have much time right now from everything going on, but he's the man. He's way ahead of me in working in OPS etc, I've just got the time to add basic things that haven't been there or would be cool to have.I've started working on the mk6 Landing craft, but for no apparent reason it's giving me a tonne of grief.. yes, it's tiny! lol, so I made it the correct size (it can fit a vehicle in it now) and tried it out in a mission.. and what do I get... those freaky view points appearing all over the terrain!! panning at the speed of light from one side to the other etc etc etc (I'm sure anyone thats worked in OPS has seen this at some point when you put your creation into the game). All I did was make it bigger.. I checked everything I could in OPS and just can't see why it's doing it. So if anyone has got more of a clue than I have.. shout it up! Oh, while I'm here.... diferent subject.. if anyone reading this knows how to write simple batch files, let me know please, I could use a little help with one. ~Nat~ IP: Logged |
