After investigating further it actually happens after an enemy vehicle is spotted, it doesn't have to be an AT gun. This happens to the modified 6 pounders (only the limbered models) but not to the Pak36(r), which is interesting.
It could be for multiple reasons, maybe I exported a screwed up model for one of the 6 pounders or something. I'll remake the mod from scratch with the knowledge I've gained and see how it goes.
-
I see. I guess I'll experiment further on this subject. I haven't seen a marker, so it might be the legs themselves which have that behavior. Interestingly a muzzle marker is still present on the limbered models, even though it isn't supposed to fire.
By the way, the wheels on the 6 pounder become bugged (they change position) once another AT gun type appears. Would you happen to know something about this?
Is there a particular order for applying rotation + scale and position transforms?
-
Okay, now I see. I'll try to fix this.
-
Yeah, we could use one of those. It's funny that it hasn't shown up yet even though all WW2 CM titles happen after its introduction.
-
Ok, I managed to get it to bug out when the gun is abandoned in the stowed position. I'll take a look later since it seems to work fine in most other situations.
-
I can't seem to reproduce the problem. Just to be sure, you're not talking about when this happens? :
As I said, I can't do much about this. The alternative is it looking like this:
-
I'll take a look and see what I can do.

Alright, this time everything should work including the rotating:

To those who had to scroll down to find out what's going on, sorry about the confusion, I got a bit too excited.

Perhaps this have something to do with the high of the gun and the muzzle fire...no Idea ? ? ! !
I was tried to import mds in 3d Max Autodesk/Cad2019 ZModeler2 they but , they don t reconized the format... nothing happening...
...and all infos that I found about mds file on the net make a reference to an iso disk image, but this is not the kind of mds file that we are talking about, I dont find anything else about mds...any Ideas ??
Well, I guess it's just not possible for now. Let's leave it at that.
By the way I did the renaming thing and it works.
-
It's on the way
-
Actually, I saw that the object names are different. Since I kept importing and exporting, they kept getting new names.
Maybe it will work if I remove the numbers.

Hotfix for the 57mm guns (the muzzleflash wasn't in the right place)

@Aquila-SmartWargames I just noticed the guns don't rotate anymore in order to aim. Any ideas?
-
I've just noticed that the guns lose their rotating animations when this mod is applied. I'll look for a solution.

Hello,
Being, as always, bothered by details, I have rescaled the guns mentionned in the title to a more authentic size (they were too small before).
Grab them here:

Be aware that the guns will sink into the ground when limbered to a tractor. There's not much of a way to fix this with the current tools unfortunately.
When placing the AT guns take the gunner's position as reference, as the gun will change position when it is unlimbered.

I have a licence from 3D Max and sketchup, and already converted a lot to obj and in case in the same time in fbx and 3ds, so if you need some, i can lend you a hand...
Wait, so does that mean you can make .mds models usable in Blender? If so, could I have the German winter parka models and the German tank crew ones? I can send them to you if you want.
-
After playing around a bit with the scales and transform here is the result, vanilla on the left and modded on the right.
You can also note that the vanilla crew is way too far back, which is fixed by transforming the model backwards in Blender.
I plan on releasing the fixes for the 7.62cm Pak36(r) and the various CW 6 pounder guns after I'm finished with them.
-
Okay, that worked. Thanks Aquila!
However I've run into another problem, the limbered model looks like this when limbered to a truck:
I believe I can just solve this by guesstimating the position the gun needs to be at in Blender, and applying the transform to the object.
Actually I think I'll just extract the truck's model so I don't have to guesstimate.
-
Say @Aquila-SmartWargames, I'm trying to scale up the British 6 pounder guns because they're too small. When I change the scale in Blender the entire gun bugs out in-game (model is floating in midair with the scale unchanged). Do you have any idea how to work this out?
I also have an experiment which may not work out here:
Please share if you have any ideas.

Here's a temporary fix for that if you didn't see my thread

Hello,
I'm currently experimenting with making German tank crews wear parkas in the winter. A problem I've run into is that they don't have headsets anymore when they wear said parkas.
I can open .mdr files to edit weapons but I haven't found a way to open .mds files yet. In fact I'm not even sure that's possible. Can anyone give me some pointers as to how to fix that, if it actually is possible?
If anyone wants me to share what I've done, just ask.
-
Well, to sum it up, the main problem here is the Soviet platoon leader's model in most formations. He appears as a regular grunt.
The UI ranks can be fixed by manipulating the game's files. A bit more variation in the ranks would be nice though.

Hmmm, well for now I'll try redoing the mod then we'll see.
I could use the US model however the legs are different, and it doesn't have a muzzle brake so I can't use it to replace the Mk IV. I could try to replace the barrel and the legs but for me it would be kinda hard. I could try though, if it comes to that.
