Building track simulation?

ancient coral
#

looking forward to see what approach you guys used for the tracks

BMD-1 👏🏾

Beautiful

#

Only thing we need now is pure American steel

scenic dust
#

Very good to see I'm very excited

#

I guess its some sort of APC/Tank.. but all I see is the tracks and wheels on the rock. :p

low mist
#

It's a BMP potentially 2-3 based on it's turret config

karmic osprey
#

It’s a 3 you can tell by the chassis it’s more blocky than previous bmps

sweet folio
#

It is not either of those things it's a BMD-1

low mist
#

Was thinking it's a three

#

Bmd is a box not a rectangle

sweet folio
#

It is very clearly not a BMP

#

This is a BMP

#

Look at a bmp 3

#

Not a 2 go look at a 3

sweet folio
#

The 3 is too wide to be that

karmic osprey
#

It’s a bmp 3 look at the front of the photo then look at a bmd the bmp 3 has some step like armor on the front the bmd doesn’t

low mist
#

That's due to the bmp's being amphibious unlike the bmd's

sweet folio
#

I keep looking at various photos and tbh now I am really quite unsure.

#

I'm just gonna wait for strider to say what it is

@sweet folio

BMP 3 with 100mm atgm or HE
And 30mm

Screenshot_20230102-214637_Google.jpg
#

The btr 3 have 6 wheels the bmd have 5

regal umbra
#

we could get more lav with tracks if striders gets this to work

sweet folio
#

If it works then pandora's box is open and tank warfare is imminent

#

it looks like a bmp 1 or PT76

#

I'm going to spoil the fun here. It's a reworked A2 BMP-3.

wheat bay
#

Thanks Ben lol

sweet folio
#

Welp

#

I'll admit when I'm wrong

wheat bay
#

Honestly be that as it may, it'll be a fearsome, yet welcome addition to the tank mod(s) in future reference

novel flume
#

Will it be amphibious?

tawdry mist
#

I figured I should do something russian
And yes it will be amphibious

novel flume
#

Are you planning to make any russian light armoured vehicles like the tigr or the typhoon in the near future @tawdry mist ? Btw the bmp3 looks sick.

tawdry mist
#

Not planning on anything really
I would need models for them anyway

#

I’ve honestly been thinking about setting up a patreon or something similar to help me fund models

kind wharf
#

Do it i wpuld support you

dark forge
#

its a bmp 3 early model. alot of blind people here :S

regal umbra
#

if strider figures out the tracks he could create any vehicle that has tracks

sweet folio
#

Honestly assuming they get permission anyone can

regal umbra
#

yea if strider lets people have the tracks code yea we could have tank mods popping off or apc with tracks

hasty merlin
#

Bradley

#

we need bradley

dark forge
#

We need arty / rocket artillery

#

Just wish player render distance was increased

yes you can open anyone's mod so no worries

#

I'll see about making a core mod for it

#

This looks great, I have 5 tanks or so waiting for tracks, so cheers to you for paving the way!

BMP Vs Bradleys

#

Gotta get agms sorted for bpms 🥲

limber crane
#

Honestly much more interested in t55s/72a's and m60s

regal umbra
#

m1a2 freebrams vs t90

limber crane
#

Meh nah to advanced for the time period, at most an m1 105 Abrams

worthy comet
#

I wanna see things thatll fit with the vanilla game first

#

T-55s, M113s, etc

limber crane
#

Agreed

wheat bay
#

I'm just content to be here lmao

#

The moment in time tank treads and their vehicles additions become listed

limber crane
#

Still insane we are getting tanks and really advanced stuff, before someone makes a standalone m240 mod

regal umbra
limber crane
#

I do aswell, but vehicles in the time period should come first as they require less stuff to be modeled and would allow molders to work out kinks with tank mechanics

regal umbra
#

the m1 abrams is perfect for the time

Tank models with interiors are expensive. The resources available for a solid test bed people can enjoy but that still include interiors are very limited.

night carbon
#

It takes me about 100 hours for a decent tank with decent interior x $30/hr is $3k for your average modeler. A basic tank with just exterior, probably around 10 hours

limber crane
dark forge
#

10 hours? lol

worthy comet
#

Pull an Arma 3 and basically just take screenshots of the actual interiors and use that as the interior texture

#

Don't have to have fully functional internal autoloading systems and stuff, just some seats and a joystick or two for the gunner/driver to move their thing and youre golden
Long as it looks amazing on the outside I don't think people give a fuck

#

I prefer servers with third person disabled

#

It balances 80% of issues with vehicles

#

I wish that when you're in vehicles it's locked to first person anyways, since that alone would balance the BTR vs HMMWV situation

dark forge
#

for 400 I will make all the bmp3 variants and interior

worthy comet
#

600, for all main BMP variants, an M113, and a Bradley

#

Set up a Kofi or Patreon or some shit and set a goal, and you'll meet it by the end of the month

#

Bmp1, 2, 3, Bradley, M113, with the ability to turn out on the last one

#

I'd gladly pay that on my next paycheck

dark forge
#

nah 400 just for the model and just for bmp3's it would be better than what BI has done even then that is really under valued with labor time

worthy comet
#

Damn

#

Having 3 BMPs, 4 BTRs, three US APCs, and new mods coming out for tanks right after that, and that alone could cover most of the most used vehicles out there

#

On a side note do you think RHS will add those exact things to Status Quo? Now that Tracks have been cracked, they can add a shit ton of vehicles and vehicle variants

#

And knowing them, after Status Quo, they'll go for some US Armed Forces shit to balance it out lmao

# worthy comet 600, for all main BMP variants, an M113, and a Bradley

$400 for one is a good price. Especially if he is including the interior. I mean depending on the license he offers with it if you want the deed of rights(You own the IP) to it then he could even charge you $1000+. Quality models are not cheap in any way. Especially if you want to own it 100%.

ancient coral
#

if you'd want to get one made for you specifically then it's impossible in less than 4 digits

worthy comet
#

less to own one and more to just have one for the community in general

ancient coral
#

I mean it depends on the level of quality you'd expect but yeah

worthy comet
#

Again, having a shit ton of armored vehicles to play with would make the game leagues better

#

Right now its just 3 BTRs and a budget US BTR

ancient coral
#

I was looking at some model pack with like 20 military vehicles for 1 grand but I doubt it had interiors

#

then you also have to put a ton of time to make it compatible with the game

night carbon
#

Not to mention all the time it takes to get materials and UV correct and efficient, along with LODs, colliders and memory points, never mind character animations

This is 1989
The M1 itself wasn't fielded until like, 85, much less experimental prototypes of it

regal umbra
#

nope m1 been in service since 1980

#

@worthy comet

#

m1a1 began service in 1985

hasty merlin
#

Thats why i the M1A1 would be realistic

That's about as good as we can get with what we can currently do via scripts

i wonder if bi is going support track stuff

# surreal goblet

Honestly I'm excited to see tracks alone considering what was mentioned about tank treads before. Amazing work! Can't wait for it to be tested

surreal goblet
#

I just gotta finish writing the stuff for the tracks to animate correctly, might take a little bit of time.

wheat bay
#

Take your time as well. We can wait (sorta) lol

surreal goblet
#

Well I may have figured it out faster than i thought

#

are they moving backwards or forwards?

#

messing with my brain

#

is the figure spinning to the left or right? I remember that image sadge

#

maybe its both

@worthy comet I don't care whats technical name is.
