[Vehicle] ASLAV / ASLAV-PC

[Maxfragg]

since the bf2 engine has problems with these caches and the eat up polys, i guess they won't make it ingame, just as the got removed form other vehicles again

Yes it will be more resistant to things like RPGs the hit the cage itself... But say if you run over i IED and it gos off it will do the same amount of damage as it does to other APCs

And no to the LAV-25 i need to get the ASLAVs done...

I have started a little on the uvmapping but its going very slow

epic models Tonnie, that bar armour looks great (o:

with the ASLAV-PC variant you've done, will you be putting on the remote weapon stations?

Is there much noticeable difference between the LAV-25 and ASLAV from the outside?

If it isn't drastic the ASLAV could be modified to represent the LAV-25, maybe by another interested modeler with Tonnie's permission.

Low priority of course as the vBF2 model isn't that bad, just something to think about.

I think they mainly use the AAV for ship to shore operations (Muttrah, Jabal etc.) and LAV-25 for inland operations (Fallujah etc.), that said I've seen pictures of AAVs in Iraq being used as normal APCs but never LAV-25s in the ocean.

yer that makes sense... Well if when i am done and i get the time i may do a LAV-25 variant but i think the ASLAVs are more important hehe....
