German WW2 Battletank "Panzer III" [RA2]

Sheridan · Last edited by Sheridan on Sun Jun 01, 2008 5:10 pm; edited 2 times in total

Now Im presenting you my favourite german tank ever: Ther german "Panzer III".
I made this unit for the german section of RA2:YR.
It has its typical, middle-eurpean and northwest-african camouflage and it is armed with a 50mm medium tankgun.

Some of the early bugs are not fixed, like the unit has no remaps yet. I will update them in the next theys.
If the Unit doesnt work ingame, please let me know.
Its not final yet, but the latest version (1.21) is playable.
Have fun. Comments are welcome. Wink

You're certainly getting better at modeling. This is your best voxel yet. Though the coloring is ztyping garish, to say the least.

Look at some Yuri schemed units for coloring ideas. I see you're going for historical accuracy, but it'll come out awful thanks to RA2 and TS' way of rendering voxels.

Add some more detail to it.

The design is really good and accurate. You're problem with this voxel is the coloring, It's far too bright. As Clarkson said look at some other voxels as an example as to what color scheme to do (It's very rare you'll find me agreeing with Clarkson, but y'know he's actually right this time).

I'm always right. People just don't like the truth most of the time.

No, not always, just more than some people would like to admit. Personally I have no problem with what you say, just how you say it sometimes.

Nice PZIII Sheridan, needs to be darker though.

Like I said its not final. But its to hard now to get darker colors....it will take a lot of time to reset the normals.
@newguy: I cant make ingames, because I dont have the game now

Changing Colors was much easier than I thought Cool

Its know much darker, but its just historical accurate. Know it is a comouflage from serbia/croatia und the early invassion of russia.
The remap color is the last one of the reds, right?

Shall I update the download with the new one ?

Tough luck I'm afraid. I don't know how else to display them, especially as the VXLSE has them that way.

Grey sucks....It wouldnt fit into the RA2 Style.....only it would be a blue-grey style, but that is to futuristic.
I think the colors are dark enough now.

[Edit] Oke it has remaps now.

D.d.d.d.d.d.double post Very Happy

Here is an updated version.
The updates include:
-new Gray (not gay) color, which fits better the soulless nazi style.
-TS colors where replaced by only RA2 ones.
-the 50mm maingun got a bit shortened.
-some little things where improved, like the style of the tracks and the
wheels
-the Turret got a new 20mm armor plate, so that this tank is now Pz.III
version "L". (was version "K" from the africa krops before).
-some more details.
-a cameo

Have fun with it.
