simply amazing (:

i haven,t tried it it the game yet but i have looked at the flcs with animation shop.

the only problem i saw was in the attack flc. frames 34 - 40 and frames 45 - 50.
it seems that parts of the explosion are missing. not sure if it was intentional or not, but it,s really not that much of a problem. i can live with this (;

so what will you be doing next?

I know. I talk about that in this thread (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=34240) . I've got the exact same problem on the Merkava, and I can't figure why, because my PCX storyboard is perfect...

For some reason, the death scene reminds me of playing opussum. I might have to keep killing enemy tanks just to make sure it hadnt simply rolled over and played dead.....LOL

How big is this guy in relation to the other official CIV3 armour types?

Any chance of a ingame screenshot, Boulboulgadol?

I tested it ingame. It's about the same size as the official modern armor so size isn't a problem at all. In fact I consider this and Kinboat's Leopard 2 to be the best custom modern tanks made for the game.

Barret is right (and thanks, Barret !!).

But anyway, here is an ingame screenshot.

1st row, from left to right :
Tank-->Mech Inf-->Modern Armor-->Merkava 4-->Leopard 2
2nd row : only Leclercs, so you can compare with all others.

Best tank made for the game so far. No questions asked. Looks very much like the firaxis ones! :D Keep up the wicked work!

:eek: Exactly the same view angle as the Modern Armor, while the Merkava and the Leopard ones are slightly differents.

Your tank looks like a Firaxis unit, really good job ! (Moreover it's a french unit :groucho: )

Et vive la France !
