NTA Mod (English version)

[will1973]

Thanks to Donken, now we've improved model of the tank "M3 Lee".
- fixed open edges
- fixed and added ammunition
- fixed barrel length for the guns: 75mmM2/M3, 37mmM5/M6
- fixed members crew placement
- fixed back movement of the gun breech: 75mm/200mm and 37mm/180mm

Thank you Donken!

M3Lee vs Panther F.
The winner is Panther F. I've managed only immobilized Panther, but didn't have a time to run out. I may say that M3 Lee is a very good tank. I got three hits and only forth became fatal. The big problem caused me "scaring" of the members crew. It does that option "always obey the commands" should be checked permanently.

[frinik]

The M3 Lee may be a good tank in SF but in real life it was not exactly a stellar machine. Anyway between a Panther with a 75 high velocity gun and the M3 with its low velocity 75 mm there's no match not to mention the Panther's superior armour...

[Philip Von Webber]

Both tanks look great. I do lean towards German tanks because they had better guns and armor. Although the T-34/85 and later war Russian tanks are superb in firepower and mobility.

Me and will1973 are still guessing - does this armour map suit to the real one for the Pz.35(t)?

Then you are guessing very correct! That is the correct armor for it =)
If you want to find more info check out LT vz 35, that is the tanks real name =)

Hi there everyone! 

I've just registered on the this forum, I'm really impressed by this sim's accuracy in realism.
Secondly I would like to congratulate on this mod to all who were involved in the development of it and
last but not least keep up the good work!

Just saw the development of the IS-3 few pages earlier and I must admit it has a complicated armour pattern (turret), because of its cast nature.
I have found some interesting information about it that may come handy
1a,1b one is about the turret thickness variables
2. is on firing tests on it armour:

2.http://ftr.wot-news.com/2013/10/21/is-3-armor-tests/
I hope these help a little in the development.

Maybe I shouldn't be talking about World of Tanks, but one thing always caught me in it was the way the armour mapping was made.
Every little vision slit or mg port weakness is done with high detail.

Have nice day!

Where is the Puma/I can't find it anywhere in the Mission Editor?

Where is the Puma/I can't find it anywhere in the Mission Editor?

It should be in the APC tab, but it doesn't work without fix.

[frinik]

What fix? What' missing? I could simply add whatever file is missing...

[lockie]

I don't remember what was missed, smth. in common_units. Here is page:
http://graviteam.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=4b22022f4da5f33f53e1b71bbb053e89&topic=10944.735
Fix will be included in the next update.

Decided take a break from flight sims and dusted off my old tank sims, the Combat Mission series,
TvT and Steel Beasts(the 1st one). I missed out on getting SFK42 when it came out and am now
looking for a copy. In the meantime I've started to DL  some of the required patches etc.
I was wondering if the files that are on 4shared might be available from another DL sight.
I have no luck with 4shared DL's.
In any case, Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.

Regards,

Bwf.

Hi Bwf;

 TvT, Combat series, Steel Beasts and Steel Fury.Wow that's quite a menu!


SF is available on Amazon.com and Strategy First for $ 19.99 which is outrageous considering Graviteam is not getting one penny from the sales and the game is 6 years old! But beggars....

Which files you are not having any luck downloading?

[Bwf.]

Hi frinik,
I'm not able to DL following files:
Sound Mod (NTA) 1.1
Missions pack v1.2
Missions pack v2.1
AprUpd_2014

Weather mods:
1. Africa mod v1.21 (03.04.2014)
2. Late autumn by Lajcak
3. Autumn by Lajcak
4. Early spring by Lajcak
5. Scorching summer by kapulA
6. Winter v3.42 by Maleshkin (29.04.2014)
7. Winter no snow v1.1 by Lajcak

Free camera mod
Nvidia Inspector

Sorry it's such a long list, but if it's on 4shared I'm dead in the water there.
In any case Thanks for the reply

Regards,

Bwf.

Bwf., I think u're out of limit. Nomore then 3Gb per day on 4share.

The problem is that I haven't been able to get even a single file DL'd from that
sight for the past 2 years(Mozilla Firefox is my default browser). Perhaps there is
some "trick" to DL'ing from there that I don't know about.

You have to have an account and you have to be signed in to dl from 4share.

[frinik]

The Winter no snow and Autumn mod by Lajcak you can finsd at this link:

http://tanksim.org.ru/modules/wfdownloads/viewcat.php?cid=15

I used that link a lot in the past but unfortunately the guys who own it,  EgorOrg and Hemul, haven't kept it up to date for the last 15 months...

Unfortuntaely all the other dsownload links I have are for outdated mods on Subsim HQ and SIMHQ fora.There's no workaround, as suggested by tanker you'll have to register to download from file4share! I am planning on renting some cloud spce where I would store mods and stuff  but since Iam moving this summer it will have to wait a couple of months I am afraid.

[Bwf.]

To  frinik, Tanker and  lockie,

Don't know why I didn't consider getting an account there, should have thought
of it myself. I've taken care of the situation.
In any case, Thanks for your replies and info.

Regards,

Bwf.
