Spring RTS Engine

imo looks nicer fullskirt but random variation would be cool :p

it looks less solid without full cover, I think no cover would be better than half in any case, the whole shape of the tank looks off with half.

As it's a heavier tank I'd have to go full.

Don't forget that the reaper is the fastest heavy tank.

Well Reaper is as heavy as the ARM bulldog, so I guess its in the MBT class anyway, just not a superheavy like the Goliath or Penetrator.

Half skirt looks more like Sumo than anything, but Full skirt ends up looking inline with other MBT's, so I guess its all good.

Well if you guys want to look over it in Upspring here it is.

Remember that polycount read in upspring will be higher than what is rendered ingame, 3/4 track objects will be hidden and unrendered for ingame.

**non-scripted Upspring model + textures**
*edit* had to fix a spot on the glow map, so .zip is updated*

Wait for Rattle's post in my CORE REMODEL thread before trying to use this ingame, he will upload it once the scripts are finished.

I say displayed, if they have the ability to repair damage without the assistance of separate facilities, then there is no doubt that any damage to the tracks would be repaired almost immediately, and with very little effort.

^ mod specific

That's like a paraplegic in a wheel chair changing the tires.

half skirt looks cool as hell but i reckon full skirt goes better with other core designs..

Done.
Made some modifications to the texture/glow channel but I included both versions...

mr.d == rattle?

No. He does the work, I just put a slightly modified version of my tank script on it and host it.

mr.D should use your avatar, but with a baby blue hat

And flipped across the vertical axis, so it looks right instead.

Tank looks very nice!

I was playing around with the track skirt parts though, and wanted to know which you guys prefer, half skirt, or full skirt.



*Half Skirt*


*Full Skirt*

I cant decide, both look insanely awesome!

hehehe
I'll stick with my avatar

I model/unwrap/texture these units, and Rattle puts together the script and posts up a snapshot once he has it ingame.

Pretty awesome partnership we got going on to bring you guys these models in a timely fashion, without Rattle to do the scripts they'd probably never get released, so I owe him alot for his help.

N is a long way from E

And another sexy model as usual

Why you doing it so slow.Work faster.
