Armed HMMWVs: "TOW", M2 .50
« on: 06 Mar 2003, 22:14:26 »
I've adapted Quakergamer's armed Desert Humvees for woodland camo and improved some of the Geometry things, added windows, added some LODs, etc.

Check them out!

Known issues:
1. The tires DO flatten, but they don't seem to "sag" down until the vehicle moves.  So if you blast a stationary hummer's tire, you won't know if it's flat unless you get in.

2.  The "TOW" launcher fires a "bullet", not a true missile.  Oh well.  This issue is likely not going to be fixed.  I've played a lot with it, and in the heat of battle it honestly doesn't make a difference, IMO anyway.

3.  No headlights or brake lights.  This is simply because I haven't had time to look for how to do this.  

Let me know what you think, and if you can help me with any known or unknown issues, that would be appreciated.

We are in the process of improving/updating the HMMWV ourselves at the moment....perhaps see if you can get in touch with Quaker. We might be able to come up with something.... ;D

The exterior textures are good, the interiour is stll a little lacking, the only major problem I noticed was the vibrateing problem that QuakerGamer had when his were first released, and the ammo on the 50 is some thing I can't figure out, what QuakerGamer should have done in the first place was just use the BIS 50cal "Browning" (know what I mean?) and you should do the HMMWV with an M60 too  ;) but this is looking good!

For a modern Hummer it would be an M240 not an M60, the M60 has been retired from both the US Army and the Marine Corps being replaced by the M240B and M240G respectively

Thanks for the feedback!

I believe I've solved the tire problem; simple spelling errors.  Silly words!

I'll see if I can replace the "quakergamer" M2 with the BIS one, and instead of an M240/M60, wouldn't it add to the versatility to simulate a Mk-19 grenade launcher instead?  :)

M2 and Mk19 and M240 or maybe 249 are the only real weapons choices.
Howabout some screenshots?

I've always wanted an armed car...have an AK "turret" that points out of a window so you can do drive-bys...

Hey, dont bag him about the M60, the M60 is still good, and though its not officially used anymore, it is still in service on HMWWVs, Helos and Tanks. What do you thing they would do with 40 000 machineguns. They just chuck them on stuff, others they sell and the rest go to the reserves. Love these HMWWVs!
