Wow that looks incredible
Will you add wear and tear on the interior as seen within the picture above?
Oh and one little question; do you lag a fair bit when you currently look at the BTR-80 in Outerra?
... well ... if on my laptop
... thing is, it wont be up for the time when OT comes out as a full functioning engine (lot of things i want them to do are still to be implemented for example). Till then machines will be an else thing. Otherwise, dont think many have lags till 3-6 of them are spawned. That is mostly due to nu-exsisting lower LODs, witch i will make once all other things are working properly nearly to a v 1.0 level. So it shouldn't be much problem once its there ... (and im on this project already 2 years, so it will be some time till then).
As for the wear - im not good at textures, so thats why i give all the needed stuff in the model to make textures (from normal, diffuse and all that fancy stuff ...). Would like to know how, but there is too much vehicles to be build.
(thinking of making a Nona artillery and the 82 versions of this baby too). Im sure some hardcore-texture creators will catch on it.
