My question is: Why the hell have nearly all games only the .50 cal mounted on top of the M1A1/M1A2 ABRAMS? Where's the M240?? I miss it!

Yeah, I've never been able to figure that out aswell.

Can't the USI M1A1 be transformed into an M1A2? That shouldn't be much work, since the biggest part is already made.

Haha, you are like me

I'm guessing you want to model all sorts of things just so you have models of them

Its a curse not a gift! ;D

I'm just modeling everything I feel like and I am planning on modeling a M1A2 SEP at some point...

Everyone thats want the USI stuff seem to forget it all from the gulf War. None of it is used any more. The Hummer is upgraded with more armor and such. And the Abrams is updated to the M1A2. And the Marines are getting the M1A2 in Iraq as we speak due to the new under belly protection added to the newer models. And a NEW M1A3 is in testing at Fort Know, US.

Z-trooper, I've been reading the forums and appreciating all your work. I must say, you are FANTASTIC, your models are very detailed and very well done.

And now I see that you want to model a new thing. Can I suggest a thing to you model ?

A new and better and more beautiful model for the black hawk. I love this helicopter, but the DICE's one is so simple.

Well, here is my suggestion.

Haha, well thanks I guess. I think there are several reasons why the Black Hawk is so "simple" in bf2. It has a rounded airframe which will take up a lot of polygons for the player not to notice that its made out of squares and triangles, it also need to keep down the polygon count caues if its too high things will start lagging if you have a crappy old comp (like me) and when flying 100mph 30 feet above the deck is pretty much the last place I want the game to lag

But sure, a black hawk has always been on my "vehicle to do list" so why not. What I would like to do is maybe make a different version than the one in the game. Cause the black hawk in particular I cant promise that I will beat the EA model, at all.

In a game , cant u have different skins of that vehicle? , cause if so , different skins for the m1a2 would be cool since u know different crews have different paintjobs

Unfortunately i don't think it is possible without duplicating the model

Guys, what I have re-skined was too orange :S

Post by **Hitperson** » 2008-01-05 17:06

for the M1A2 when we get the m240 the cameras should be done like the ones on the choppers so 1&2 in side with HEAT and SABOT and then 3 would be up top with the M240.

I always thought the Blackhawk was one of the better DICE models. There are far better vehicles to model at the moment. Namely Chinese vehicles to replace the Nanjing and others.
