Wikipedia: The MQ-1 Predator is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) which the U.S. Air Force describes as a MALE (medium-altitude, long-endurance) UAV system. It can serve in a reconnaissance role, and it can also carry and use two AGM-114 Hellfire missiles. The aircraft has been in use since 1995, and been in combat over Afghanistan, Bosnia, Serbia, Iraq, and Yemen.

568 triangles
texture 256x128
use added animations (altered fighter animations - it uses propeller, but also shoot missiles (instead shooting from machine gun))

I recomend to use this setup in Art_def (sounds of airship fits better i think)
<PatrolSound>AS3D_UN_AIRSHIP_PATROL</PatrolSound>
<SelectionSound>AS3D_UN_AIRSHIP_COMMAND_PATROL</SelectionSound> <ActionSound>AS3D_UN_AIRSHIP_COMMAND_PATROL</ActionSound>

No...Global Hawk is a more EXPENSIVE palne. Yeah it has a greater range but it cant shoot anything [offtopic]


Is there a way to set visibility range longer on this one? I gues you can make it start with that naval tech that increases visibilty. :confused:

Any recommendations for what size to put it in game? it shouldn't be the size of a fighter.
 
I used this:
<fScale>0.3</fScale>
<fInterfaceScale>1.0</fInterfaceScale>

but probably it can be smaller

yeah i think it's possible only by promotions - tough thewre's always recon mission for air units
 
i rember - lately i rarely make unit in one attempt - especially if it can't be done in couple of hours. And usually i mix modelling with other civmoddings - .xml, 2d graphics, planning , etc. - so the modding is fun not borring automatization.

Now i have on the desk Arado Ar-234 (animation in nifviewer and small cleanings in texture), U-2 Dragon Lady (painting texture, uvunwrap, and animating), and Fallschirmjaeger (modelling trousers, painting texture, uvunwrap, and animating) - i can't say wich will appear in wich order.

Hey, thanks for the idea! :high5:
The only drawback at this stage is that there isn't a texture with civcolor available for this unit... :mischief:

Oh, I fully plan on fixing that. Right now, actually. Come back in a few minutes and I'll have it up here for everyone. :)

[EDIT]
Ok, here it is. Just replace the files from the original download with the ones here and it should work fine.
