H&D Deluxe, the ultimate mod: Vehicles

[Myron]

Good, because it did slow down the mission loader, even on my computer. :)

Do you Remember Myron, that once you asked me for a Stug III with summer camo?

Well, i found a free, good-looking, 3d model of the Stug III assault gun with summer camo on the http://www.cadnav.com/ website, that i made usable in H&D Deluxe. It has 4 seats and it is destroyable. See pictures below.

Below i attached the "Stug III summer.rar" archive. Unpack its content (models.mod and maps.mod folders) into your main H&D Deluxe directory.

I plan to put this custom Stug III in the Prague 1 mission on one of the streets as a "abandoned vehicle" (with small amount of fuel and ammo), that could be used by the player.

That is awesome!!
Thanks for finding that.

Glad that you like it!

Finding the model was only 50% of the success, because it required additional editing.

It took me lots of time to make it driveable, but the effort paid off.

So far this is my third custom driveable combat vehicle in H&D Deluxe after Matilda and Crusader tanks.

Hmm, now that I think about it... I might have tested one of your tanks before, long ago.

For your request Myron i edited the default Mercedes truck model from the Prague 2 mission and i added a 5th seat to it. See picture below.

Download the models.mod.rar archive attached below.

I edited the default Opel truck (summer version) and i made it 8-seated instead of 4-seated for the purpose of the Germany 1 mission and the escape of our SAS team with liberated Allied POW. There are 2 seats in the front and 6 seats in the back. See pictures below.

Below i attached the modified Opel truck model.

Thanks to NilsZ help i managed to make the default pontoon model driveable! See picture below.

I plan to replace the default pontoon model from the North Ocean mission with my edited driveable version - so the player will be actually able to get back to the Catalina after obtaining the decoding machine from the German cruiser.

I further edited the pontoon model and i made it destroyable (by gunfire - just like the other un-armored vehicles in H&D Deluxe).

Below i attached the pontoon model again.

Hmm, the model doesn't seem to work.
I think I messed up which Data is the latest. :(

I didn't replace the default pontoon model in the North Ocean mission yet. You need to wait. I don't have enough free time at the moment to implement it in that mission. Plus i need to test the pontoon behavior more precisely - especially how it collides with other in-game objects and if it does that properly.

I found a free, good-looking 3d model of the Italian M13/40 tank on the www.cadnav.com website, that i made usable in H&D Deluxe.

See picture below.

Below i posted all the files of new custom tank model.

I plan to add this tank into the Italy 3 mission and replace the German PZ IV tanks in the railway station.

I managed to import the Italian SPA 35 Dovunque truck from Medal of Honor: Breakthrough.

The wheels textures are not taken from the original model, but from H&D Deluxe instead. The original wheel textures looked distorted on the wheels (tires). Anyway, the H&D Deluxe textures are still looking good in my opinion.

See pictures below.

I want to add this truck to the Italian campaign.

Still work in progress - i need to add collision volumes and link the un-destroyed model to the destroyed version.
