Seeking military vehicles

[arizonachris]

it looks like the tank is part of the rail car. I don't see a separate blueprint/shape for just the tank.

I'll have to run that scenario again to be sure, BUT, AFAIK there are tanks and jeeps on the ground where you first start that particular scenario. As I have no idea how or where to look for those vehicles in the assets for that scenario (yep, I'm still just a driver ) but I can let you know if they are there.

EDIT: Never mind me, all there are is tanks on flatbeds. All the other vehicles are the generic, new stuff.

PS: the "mini update" broke that scenario. Watch out, kids! It's here!

Somehow I had the BB but not the flatcar; re-enabled the IHH object sets and all is well.

Except.... it looks like the tank is part of the rail car. I don't see a separate blueprint/shape for just the tank. So I can't plop one of these things on the ground?!?? sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh That makes no sense to me. Maybe I can "kill" a copy of the rail car... make a "dead" one, then just bury the car underground. Aww, then I'll need permissions.... let's see... this is a free product but only available with a payware product made by a third party bought through Steam, licensed by RS.Com. Hmmmm... who to ask, who to ask... this "game" is becoming a "pain" (you know what kind).

Any suggestions, guys?

I still think I saw green jeeps on a flatcar before... maybe they came included with someone's route???

Not quite correct.... the BB and the flat car and the tank are sold and developed by a first party...IHH..... a third party RS.com wanted to sell the model via steam to placate / encourage some of the US contingent. they had a rule that scenarios could only be dependant on that package or default hence they declined to include the scenarios... which I then made freely available on my site.

What more could I have done ?

As for the tanks they are a child object of the flat car if I remember correctly ?

If they are, there is a geoPCdX and a TgPcDx texture file that can be combined with your own blueprint to make them stand alone.

Hi Sly, thanks for chiming in. I was just whining about how much time I spend tracking down copyrights and permissions and stuff... it wasn't about you. Folks don't know what I went through to make that distribution pack that comes with the COA (hours of "paperwork"!). I hope I didn't offend.

I did check the folders right away, but alas, the tank is not a child object, or at least I could not find it or a reference to it. Maybe I should look more carefully? I logically assumed the tank would be a child object, but then I realized it isn't animated so then it made sense. Is it really an all-in-one shape?

Thanks,
Tori

Hey no problem didn't mean to come across scurlish.
I will dig out the file and have a look, its seems a long while back now..

Incidently the Sherman is not one of my models... I actually bought it at the last minute royalty free for about $6.00 they did have quite a range of low poly military stuff in 3DS format.

I will try to find the link.

Cheers

Hmmmm.... I can spray camo paint on a model.... I had never thought of that approach to getting some new assets.
