F-117 Nighthawk

nautil · Mar 23, 2006

As it was requested, here comes rugged F-117 Nighthawk

The model turned out to be pretty simple, just a couple of pyramids and boxes, in total just 400 polys, all thanks to plane's pointed shape.
Next in line are SU-47 and probably Tu-160
Enjoy !

N.B. I've made some changes in nif file, and i'm not sure if death animation works correctly, so please if you encounter any abnormalities report it here.

P.S. How to add new units guide

EXCELLENT!!

I think you've down more to promote the modern era warfare than Firaxis has.

Yes.. thank you :banana:

nice one

snafusmith · Mar 23, 2006

Very nice! It's always tough getting those odd geometry models to come out right. When it happens though, hold on!

boneys26 · Mar 23, 2006

Just to let ya know theres no problems with it being shot down had 15 min test on it works and looks great :goodjob:

Looks awesome nautil :thumbsup:

As always you did especially good job on the texture.

One again you have delighted everyone.

This one is simple incredible- for something so simple (as you explained it) this model is just so elegant. Like a black, deadly, flying iPod.

Thumbs up!

I can just see the US Army advertisement - "Join an Army of One, and you might find yourself in a black, deadly and flying iPod." Then cut to shots of the F-117 flybys stylized to look like those "shadow outlines" in the iPod commercials.

Ok, I just had to do it.

Ok, back to topic now (sorry about that).

Yeah, like the we would ever let the Army touch our planes... especially the F117. No. Dice. Fish.

Yeah, back to topic. I've said it, but it's still true. Nice job.

question time:

I want to add this in (yes I know about the link way up top, thanks for putting it there btw, because I'm an idiot at this so far) and I want to make it so the F-117:

Can - Strike Ground targets and actually Kill them

Can't - When striking ground targets give collateral damage (it's a percision tradeoff thing in my mind, make's things interesting)
Can't - Can't fly off of a carrier
Can't - intercept enemy fighters/bombers
Can't - can't be intercepted by (or at least have an exceedingly low chance of being interecepted)

I'd also in general like to increase the ammount of damage a ground unit can be dropped down to, I'd like to weaken the units down to about 25% of full strength. And also increase the likelyhood of aircraft getting shot down (or at least increase the damage they take in general).

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

going to take a hour want to test it make sure its ok first

boneys26 · Mar 23, 2006

sorry it took longer than half an hour had trouble with it it doesn't matter how powerfull i made it i cant get it to kill in one run the highest i can get is 85% damage which is strange as on the second run i take another 85% (so its well dead :lol:

) but you can't load it onto a carrier or intercept it and like you wanted can't be used for interception.

ok the F117 with all the xml's for it ie: civ4gametextinfos_objects.xml,
civ4unitinfos.xml, civ4artdefines_unit.xml etc. just download and add to the right xml files DON'T drop each file inplace as i've only done the xml for the
F117 no other units are included enter the files and copy and paste my xml to the bottom of each xml file in this download find customassets\art\units\f117 drop this file into your customassets\art\units (this is the only file you can drag and drop the rest you have to copy and paste the text for each one)

GeoModder · Mar 23, 2006

Cool. But even a F117 should have a minor chance of being intercepted. Even if it only is 5% or so.

Crighton · Mar 23, 2006

BLESS YOU SIR!!

I shallname my first clone after thee.

Many, many thanks.

Hello, I find this unit superb but when I add it I do not have bombs in animation bombardment. Is this situation it normal?
