HMMWV pack (WIP)

[ExplosiveAids]

Hi everyone.

This is just a sneak peak of what's coming in the next update (for ArmA1 and ArmA2).

The base texture needs more detail added to it and I haven't made any door handles yet. I'm also going to make a desert-coloured turret enclosure for the final release.

I'll post more pics soon.

I'll keep the pics coming.

I hope you don't forget to modify the windows. Would be funny having a heavily armored HMMWV where you can shoot the passengers through the windows

Looking good mate.

I got bored of wrapping Christmas presents today so I decided to make the turret enclosure... and I may have done a few other things too.

- Turret enclosure
- Recoloured the shield
- Made specular and normal maps for the desert-coloured additions
- Modified the original BI normal map and removed the vents on the rear of the HMMWV. I also removed the lines that ran the length of the roof.
- Added a rear bumper (it's the one I made for the first HMMWV pack, but I'm gonna re-make it for the next release. It needs more detail).
- Repositioned the straps that hold the bags at the rear.
- Modified the the turret cupola and hatch to fit my armoured enclosure.

I still haven't made any door handles. I'll add them next

Here are four more pics for you guys...

Here are a few more pics for you guys.

I decided to remove a lot of the old model detail and add some nice new stuff. The antenna, the jerry can, the orange panel and the single smoke-launcher were removed and as you can see, I've added three new redesigned smoke launchers, a hard antenna (borrowed from my Strykers) and two flexible antennae.

If you look closely you can see that I've bent the antennae slightly, to make them look a bit more used and abused. I also put some bullet-resistant glass on the turret, straps on the razor wire (so it looks tied to the bonnet/hood) and I lastly I added a bit more dirt to the door texture.

Stiltman put together a config file so we could test her out. I'll stop rambling so you can check out the pics:







If you look at that last one, you'll notice the windows have taken a bit of a beating. Stiltman has tweaked the Fire Geometry and made the whole vehicle a bit stronger, so the gunner no longer gets nailed as soon as bullets start flying.

I still have more work to do (remaking that rear bumper) so expect more pics in the coming days.

very good

Another update for you guys.

After I remade the rear bumper, I started work on the Mk19 variant of our HMMWV pack. It's basically the same as the old thin-skinned Humvee but with a few extra bits added.

I've tweaked the uparmoured texture: added & removed some dirt and made the base colour a bit less yellow. I also tinted the colour of the glass to make it look more like the bullet-resistant stuff that would be found on the real vehicle.






This one isn't finished btw. I'll post more pics after I've added the finishing touches. After that, I start on the TOW variant.

Stay tuned for more updates.

Why is it half grey half tan?
