Flak means fliegerabwehrkannone, so, air defense gun. It was an AA... weird one at that, but nontheless, AA gun.

The Germans also made a Pak Version of it:

About the colours: They used Panzergrau (as in grey) at the beginning of the war. Starting in 1943 they started to produce all their vehicles and guns in yellow and applied custom camo paint jobs in brown and green. Towards the end of the war they started producing green vehicles.

That Pak 88 cannon looks violent

I would love to see these babes being deployable, sad because it'll never happen...

A deployable Flak 88 is quite overpowered against a deployable M1, hence we went for the Pak 40

.

Anyways, is anyone up for modelling this?

Don't wait on me, if someone else does it first go ahead, but I need some more modeling practice this summer so maybe ill give this a shot since ive got 3 or 4 days off this week from work

Still fairly new to modelling, especially for something such as a video game. Will 3ds max 2012 be alright or do I need a older version to model for BF2?

Xavo|xXx · 2012-08-05, 03:46

You need an older version, Max9 I believe. You 'could' do it in 2012, but then transferring it back to Max9 would just add a whole heap of extra work.

Ratface · 2012-08-05, 04:03

Well, Ill practice on it anyways, im not expecting much since im still a complete noob at modeling a bit but ill show it off later this week to show what I've done in max 2012 anyways

I'll look into downloading an older version, anyone know where u can get a free older version by chance? Legal if possible :P

Doing stuff in 2012 then going back to 9 isn't as hard as everyone makes it seem.
