MikeyD Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Yours... totally for FREE! - Yellow Jagdpanther TD, for both CMAK and CMBB At our favorite site of course (CMBB side): www.cmmods.com Before anyone starts to b*tch, you were either going to get a Zimmerit Jagdpanther or a heavy bolted gun mantlet Jagdpanther. You can't have 'em both together! Jagdpanther history: - Series production starts Jan '44. - The Zimmerit coating is dropped in Sept. - The thicker bolted gun mount and self-cleaning idler appear in Oct. - In Dec. the Panther 'G' engine deck and 'flammvernichter' mufflers are fitted. - In Feb. '45 tool stowage is relocated from the sides to the rear. That makes this an Oct-Nov production vehicle. One oddily is the monobloc 88 gun tube, which had been phased out in May. But this can be explained by swapping of gun tubes during field repairs. I'm not convinced plain yellow Jagdpanthers were still leaving the factory in Oct-Nov, but I rushed this plain mod out for you camou modders - plus I've got another project hanging over my head that *might* delay a proper camou Jagdpanther from me. Enjoy! Screenshot: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Grey Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Absolutely perfect! Thanks! Maybe I can do an early Zimmerit Version - shouldn't be that much of a problem... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 I've got art drawn-up *resembling* the thinner early gun mount at home but even a mediocre 'early mount' patch would involve half the mod over again! That gun mount is NOT easy to create with this polygon. Its three or four different bmp files all having to match-up exactly. Backdating would also include early rear idler and deleting the pilzen mounts on the roof. I know if I had released an early version people would be clamouring for a late vehicle instead. The good thing about the later no-Zim Jagdpanther is you get a good view of the cool Panther hull joints. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earl Grey Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 @MikeyD: I'll see what I can do. In every mod a lot of parts to fit exactly... You remember the modified Panther fenders? Those drove me nearly nuts. But as long as I think I'm nuts enough to do an early version, there's nothing that can stop me... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
