The first of many minor assets releases from my mod. I'm feeling generous.

You may use this in a map. If you want to use it in a Mod just ask me first.

Converted Vehicles from BF2 from my mod. Release #1
-AAC-1 Hovertank source files. Ya know, this weird looking fella' [spoiler][/spoiler]


The weapons are not an exact replica of BF2 but from my mod
Seats: 2 (Pilot, and Gunner)
Pilot Weapons: Medium-strength Laser Cannon, Anti-personnel Sonic shock cannon.
Turret Gunner: Rocket Turret (32 Rockets)


You need modding knowledge for using this.

1. In BFbuilder pro, create a new side, call it "hovertank"
2. Copy everything over, edit what you want.
3. Munge
4. Call it in your mission lua (or mission luas) instead of the default combatspeeder like this

What this part of a lua originally looked like (an example with the combat speeder)

    ReadDataFile("SIDE\\all.lvl",
        "all_fly_xwing",
        "all_hover_combatspeeder",
        "all_inf_basicdesert",
        "all_inf_lukeskywalker",
        "all_inf_smuggler")


Do this (Comment out the "all_hover_combatspeeder" , or just delete that line) And add a reference to the hovertank file as shown below.


    ReadDataFile("SIDE\\all.lvl",
        "all_fly_xwing",
--        "all_hover_combatspeeder",
        "all_inf_basicdesert",
        "all_inf_lukeskywalker",
        "all_inf_smuggler")
    ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\\hovertank.lvl",
        "hovertank")

note: the "dc:"  is used only if you're using this in an addon map

5. Play it, enjoy a cool new tank!

What you can do with this: Use it in any map or mod, just as long as you give proper credits (Mostly to Pandemic for the model and texture, but some credit to me for the weapons and giving the texture a minimal edit would be nice too)

Also, I'd like to suggest that if  you plan to use this in a mod (whether its big or small), that you modify the weapons a bit, maybe change some things, just to make it not a complete copy of what I made.

There may be (I can't remember) two bugs that can easily be fixed if they are there: Missing Rocket sounds and Missing sonic blaster sounds. Just call the geonosis sound lvl in your lua

Next thing:
TBD at a later time

Battlefront One and a Half Era Mod, v2.0. Making great progress (SWBF)

I have to say this is a nice vehicle, thanks for releasing these assets. I can see a few of these being driven next to a hovernaut.

One step closer to getting a Real swbf2 mod. ( sleepkiller did half the work, someone just has to tighten the bolts ) [ not a request btw, just a comment  ;) ]

um...whut? I'm sorry I have no idea of what you just said, Kit  :P.

You released a swbf2 tank. And I was saying we are closer to someone making a swbf2 mod for swbf1. Lol.  :slap:
