New Unit: V-2 (A-4) Missile

[Krayzeenbk]

Back from vacation yesterday, here is the V-2 I was making. This missile is 100% scratch-built (no copy/pasting plumes and such). Contains all the necessary files and instructions.

Download
Edit: uploaded a version with .ini files that use tactical nuke files for the explosion animation, etc (instead of the ICBM files).
Edit2: uploaded a version with shadows in the default animation (I accidentally left them out in the original, even though I had them when I was testing).

I have not tested the V2AttackA animation for vanilla Civ3 (can't find my CD, it's somewhere in my luggage). If someone who plays vanilla finds any problems with it, please tell me.

Previews (launch, flight, fall - if you couldn't guess that ):

First reply.

Nice flying bomb you've got there! Good job, Krayzeenbk!

 

[aaglo]

Wow!

This isn't any 2nd class unit. Not even 1st class.
It goes straight to 0.5th class (according to EN-ISO 7500-1).

 

[ArneoKerdarun]

Really nice ! The ignition is so impressive !

 

[Gogf]

WOW Krayzeebnk! I thought it wouldn't look that good with the camo, but I was wrong. That's amazing!

Uhm- right!!! That's one nice way of stating that it is A-Class

Krayzeenbk, why don't you publish a small tutorial for rocket scientists ??? Would be very helpful for the likes of me

 

[Vuldacon]

Excellent Krayzeenbk...Was looking forward to this Rocket, goes straight into my game.

 

[spincrus]

It is VERY cool

 

[bipolar]

Great job... what about the explosion-animation? I would be grateful if you can show it...

 

[Krayzeenbk]

The V-2 uses the nuke animation for the explosion. If you would like to make it a non-nuclear tactical missile (not 100% sure this is possible), use the death animation for the explosion animation.

 

[bipolar]

I'll try it... thanks!!

 

[Vasili]

It is an great unit.

 

[Straczynski]

So, Krayzeenbk... What's your next missile?

 

[W.i.n.t.e.r]

The Planetbuster

 

[Krayzeenbk]

Hm...
@Straczynski: There's a thread in the main forum for that
The Planetbuster?

 

[Patroklos]

Any way we could get the more conventional black and white version? I know there is one out there but it is a cut and paste version and this one is, well no offense to whoever made the other one, alot better.

 

[aaglo]

I think the black&white version is just a test version?
This camo-one looks definitely cooler

Krayzeenbk: The Planetbuster is the ultimate weapon in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. It's also the ultimate terraformer

I wasn't expecting anything special from a rocket, but this indeed kicks ass

 

[GenMarshall]

I am wondering if this can be used as a Cruise Missile unit. I am already using a Soviet Nuclear Missile to represent the Nuclear Missile in the World War II/Cold War Era (Modern Era in my Mod)

 

[Krayzeenbk]

I don't believe this has the proper animations for use as a cruise missile.
