Cargo Ship

[snafusmith]

I've always been sick of all the industrial/modern age transports in Civ3 and Civ4, so now that I've finished the stuka a whipped up this thing.

It's very low poly (~250). Enjoy.

Nice unit smitty. Simple and effective.

I've always been pretty annoyed with the modern transport graphics too. This is great!

 

[Crighton]

Question does it have animations and whatnot?

You're right about the Higgins boat model being a generic transport unit throughout the modern age.

I think it'd be neat to have a troop transport (the normal one, carry only infantry and regular tanks) and the cargo ship carry mechanized units (MA's, tanks, gunships and only be able to load/unload inside port cities).

 

[snafusmith]

Unfortunately none of my units are animated. I only started using 3ds Max a couple weeks ago.

hello
i used your ship as a commerce cargo (like in caravan mod)
but it goes through enemy lines but DON'T goes inside the city....why?
i entered the correct lines in the xml i think ( i even allow investigate)

 

[Rabbit, White]

Even when a ship can go into enemy territory it cannot go into cities unless you have open borders agreement with that civ.

hello
ok thanks to have answer the question!!

hello, I find this unit brilliant but when I install it I have problem with the sound. The unit emet a noise bizare.

 

[snafusmith]

There's no sound inherent to this unit, it's just a model and texture. Check your XML (I don't know enough about it to tell you where the problem would be), that's probably where your issue is. Thanks for using it, it's nice to know this stuff is of use.

Did you ever get rid of the annoying sound. It happened to me as well when I just replaced the standard transport

[esnaz]

i don't have a clue how to install it. (Wabbit Rite's guide...confuses me.)

I've read the guide a few times and still get confused, so don't think you're alone in having trouble installing mods.
