New Tanks Skins

[alan123]

Hello,

Here are some new tank skins I did. Simply adding a bit more camo to the German tank skins, now they have a bit more green and also some brawn on them.

If there is interest I can do more.

I donate them and hope that they appear in an addon sometime soon.


Thanks

I hope that the IF developers release some white dummy textures for some tanks to made different camos like BIs for TKOH

Agreed, it would be ideal to re-create additional units in game using an approved template

Hello,

All I did on my ones was to add some brown to the standard German tank skins as they are in my opinion a bit bright and plain, but of course because you cannot mod the game they cannot be used. I was hoping the Developer would include them in a game update some time in the future.

What we need are some plain yellow skinned German tanks and from there one can add a camo scheme over the plain yellow. There is one for the King Tiger.

The Russian tanks were just about always green however there were some with brown stripes on them and that is easy enough to do over the green skins that are already in the game.

Cheers

You have to save the texture in the mission folder and use that script in the init line of vehicle
_vehiclename setObjectTexture [0,"texture.paa"]

Here script to approve the possibilites
this setObjectTexture [0,'#(argb,8,8,3)color(0,1,0,1)']
