you can hear the engine sound miles away. ok, but nice if it was finished.
Great mod. finnaly i can relive my dreams of kicking the **** out of the insurgents in a heavily unstoppable beast.
Could someone, please, update these to OA? Sad thing is that these are actually better and more polished than the ones available for OA.
Great! I'm with Thorvald, BIS doesn't need to make an official Challenger 2 with this thing around! But yeah, we need it updated to OA\BAF...and yes (@Grimfist) the engine does indeed herald the arrival of the end for the OPFORCES from miles away...Since the replies are far and few between for this mod, does anyone know if the author is in any way interested in a OA update?
Go Brits!
I must admit, as someone who has had some hands on with Challenger 2, driven it and rode around in it (on Potential Officers courses with my hopeful future regiment), this is quite accurate. The engine sounds like the Perkins Condor, the shape is correct; suspension could be a little higher as the hydropnumatic suspension raises it another 40cm when it's warmed up.
What I particularly admire about this, is that, not only have you produced the base model, you have also given us TES (theatre entry standard), though both obsolete to the latest TES, they are still fantastic and it just gives it a better feel. Finally, I love the Megatron on the WD version, as there is in fact a Challenger 2 in the hangars at Bovington belonging to the KRH called Megatron! See pictures to last years tank fest and there it is, only it's name is in bold caps in a military style stencil and in black!
Lastly, thank you for not taking the easy road and copying the values for the M1 and the sights, f**k how I hate it when people ruin mods by defaulting to the BIS Abrams sight.
I give you 5 stars, and if you ever want to update, I'm wondering whether you can build the latest TES kit version
Thanks man!
Oh 1 other thing that I've literally just noticed whilst using this mod just now...there is no gun recoil...if you could incorporate (and possibly slightly more rocking when fired) that, it would be even better again!
