My plan is to only release fully animated units from now on, which is why it's been a few days since my last release. I also plan to animate all of my older models as well. This is the first of many...

Info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A7V
Poly: 622

Enjoy!

Looks awesome. A lot of your units are going in Age of Civilizations.

So how do you use this thing in a game? I notice it has few files, not the 3 the artdefines_unit.xml file is looking for? Is it animated?

Any help would be appreciated.

Ironic how the only tank Germany ever built in WWI, which was clumsy, slow and unreliable, eventually turned into the fierce Panzer III, IV, V and VI's of WWII. IIRC, they only built a few of them (less than 10).

I wouldn't exactly call the Panzers a direct descendant of the A7V... the Germans just took a harder look at tank design (and more importantly tank doctrine) then the Allies did.

Just an FYI on the A7V - There's a much better updated version in Modern Warfare v1.20. New sounds, better model, better skin.
