UPDATED:
Now animated with separate texture. Please point to the tank.kfm files in your XML.

OLD:
My newest unit, the Renault FT17. As always, I made the model and adapted the texture from elsewhere. Thanks to Sharick for helping me cut the size of the textures.

Poly Count ~350
Info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FT-17

Enjoy!

You're really getting the poly count down and making better units! :good job:

I'm itching to play a WWII scenario now. Keep up the fantastic work smitty.

It looks like there is a transparent problem with one side of the tank texture with the pic you have shown.

There isn't, its just at a funny angle (and the camo blends with the ground well in the civilopedia).

Click to expand...

I guess you are correct... To me the part of that side just doesn’t look right.

Wow, I am so so so so happy! This was a tank I requested a long time ago that I really needed for my Chinese Civil War scenario that I thought would never get created! The model looks wonderful and accurate! Yipee!


EDIT: By the way, how do I include this unit with only one file? Is that all I need in the directory, or should I copy in the tank art files?

First off all: Thanx for that great unit!

But when I tried to use it instat of the tank, I got the following problemes:

-The Unit is extremly big
-The sound is much too lould
-and the unit can build terrain improvments outside my borders

What must I do?
