A-10 Thunderbolt II

[snafusmith]

UPDATE:

I added animations from the standard jet fighter. Please note that it does not have any missiles, only bombs. I felt that as a ground attack aircraft it should not have the intercept ability, and thus no animations for it.


OLD:

My latest...

Poly: ~1900
Info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-10_Thunderbolt_II

As a side note, it's marked as the same as those at the base I'm moving to this summer. It's nice being able to blow up the bad guys with a familiar site, don't you think? It's armed with several weapons (4 Mavericks, 2 500lb bombs and 2 rocket pods). It wouldn't be difficult for me to arm it differently if any of you wanted. Just a thought, this is one versitile plane.

Enjoy,

I just want to do a quick post and tell you how much I've enjoyed looking at all your planes. You really do a great job on them.

 

[boneys26]

nice job! is there any chance you could do a few ground units? tanks, mech infantry, just to even things out?

 

[snafusmith]

Yeah sure, just throw some ideas my way (keep in mind I don't do humaniods). If you want something in particular, it helps to have a 3 sided view.

Awesome job! I've alwaysed liked the A-10.

Vey nice model !
I just can't wait till someone , expireinced in xml, makes a compilation of all great units that were posted in this forum,should be great addition to the game, though not every computer can handle such thing.

looking forward for more great models from you

Oh man. I used to love playing "A-10 TankKiller" for the PC...it was like an early 90's PC game.

This one's going into the mod.

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

 

[boneys26]

for planes when adding it to civ4unitinfos.xml you should just copy and paste the jet fighter or stealth bomber (for jets) and just change the name tags etc
but for fighter or bomber change the bits in unitinfos to

<iCollateralDamage>10</iCollateralDamage>
<iCollateralDamageLimit>30</iCollateralDamageLimit>
<iCollateralDamageMaxUnits>2</iCollateralDamageMaxUnits>

<iBombRate>15</iBombRate>
<iBombardRate>0</iBombardRate>

planes don't bombard they just bomb thats why you have no bombardment animation

Compliments, you've modeled one of my favorite planes.

I love this one becasue the A-10 is sortof an "ugly duckling"...

 

[Beeralbion]

Sorry for being very slow but I don't understand how to get these new units into the game!

I've read a tutorial posted on these boards but it seems more orientated for people creating units, not just peeps adding them??

I really want to use this plane in game but don't really know what to do!

Anybody help??

Thanks in advance

um yeah about that . . . . . . . .

I've actually started doing that . .. . my current modding list (and I'm just talking about graphics made by the CFC, thats you guys) is at 50.

It's going to take a while since I'm a freaking noob, but I'm working on it. Lord knows I'll be posting some coding SOS's in the near future.

 

[snafusmith]

Updated with animations. Thanks to sharick for his help and Rabbit, White for his great tutorial.

 

[adamamri]

I have just tested your A10 with animation and I can say only one thing: Splendid and large a mercy.

 

[GeoModder]

Okay, another one for in the collection.

Finally, a real war plane to add to my mod...
