[Military]Tobruk bunker [WIP]

Gracler · 2013-01-01, 23:28

I'm about to start modeling a bunker for Normandy The Tobruk Bunker as AD recommended. Atm im on a search for schematic and picture state and after 2 weeks time ill be having more time to start the real work on it, so don't expect updates just yet

Might end up with more than 1 variation since there appear to be different types of this.

The simple one looks like this.

Others appear to be part of a network of pillboxes.

This guy makes very accurate models of bunkers, could very well help you out if you watch the videos.

Cool, from the 2nd pic the static doesn't look too complicated and also it looks like for the most part you won't have a problem with textures since the "conc_tile_woodland.dds" (although you would just set the static to use "conc_tile.dds" encase it was used on an ME map) should fit nicely and you can just tile that in all directions:

Doesn't have a normal map or anything thou, is only a basic colour texture but still should do the job.

You should also note and follow this tut here: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f18...structure.html

Yeah Rhino, just what I was thinking about textures

.

Seems this is the most basic tobruk variant:

Also, don't forget to throw a panzer turret (7.5cm KwK l/24) on one of them

Great thanks for all the help guys. I also think this is a task I should be capable of and a good start to get back into editing for bf2

I found this schematic that seems to be the one on a dutch website.

and this one that has a ramp that could make it easier for placement in the terrain perhaps

Question on that, I think I remember seeing a tut on bf2editor forums about using an existing texture from one object and applying it to another (I think it was over the walls used in fallujah) but I can't seem to find it, anyone know what the hell I'm talking about?

That is the one I was thinking of, but i guess I thought it was over using an existing pallet from a different object. damn.
