Craft file link?

*HYPE INTENSIFIES*

A lot of people want this out there as a way to promote community crafts, and I think it is a pretty good idea. As I'm pretty lazy, I decided to make this submission thread so that not only is it easier for me to browse submissions, but it will allow older crafts to be submitted (not on the front page anymore). There will be several basic categories each craft will be reviewed in. Also a word of advice, I tend to get sidetracked, so don't expect me to make totally professional reviews (Or get them done quickly) ._. __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ________________________________ First video of the Series! See the rest of the series on my Youtube Channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrOtgaV9AspKUbn6tCxVcrA __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ______________________________ Check out the latest episode! __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ______________________________ Selection Rules: 1. Your craft must be stock. I will not make any reviews on modded craft. (Stock allows everyone to use your craft) 2. Your craft must be interesting. Make me amazed! Implement some new, crazy, or unique building techniques into your crafts to make them truly stand out. 3. Special features / Detailed Replicas increase your chances of being selected. (I want to see something that looks good and performs well. Stock rotors? Yes! Stock fairings? Cool! Stock turrets? Even more yes! Something that will make people gape in awe when they look it at. *Cough* Like maybe a Ratte with a working turret. *Cough* ) 4. Craft will be chosen from the Spacecraft Exchange or this thread, whichever place you choose to publish your craft. 5. I will contact you via PM if I wish to use one of your crafts in a video. If you want any specific review style/focus points mention them there. __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ _____________________________ FACTS REGARDING VIDEOS: My internet connection is quite poor, so it usually takes me a couple of hours to upload a video onto Youtube. My videos will always be rendered in 1080p, 60fps. (Bonus points if you don't make me lag too badly) It would be helpful to suggest they way you would want me to review the craft, as I only have so many good ideas before I start 'Splodin things. I want to make this series a weekly thing, but due to extreme procrastination, it will probably be a biweekly series. I am not the most professional reviewer out there, (think Danny2462 professional) so if you don't provide me with strict guidelines, I can't do a serious review other than maybe top-speed, maneuverability, and a full launch sequence.

Alright, I guess I can do some reviews, however what do you guys want to see reviewed? Performance? Speed? What characteristics should be mentioned, and what benchmarks should be used?

*HEAVY BREATHING*

I can certainly do something like this, the only problem of course would be selection. Before this becomes a reality however, their needs to be some sort of submission thread for Craft of the Week Yeah, I will probably do something like this, if I can get an easy organized way to get crafts. But to make it fun, I will probably add something like, destroy build destroy, and damage test/explode the craft.

working turret + suspension

It's more or less a finished product right now. If you want I can send you a craft file. And then it's on to making a cinematic for it (Maybe Poland invasion?)

I'm planning on making a WWII Stock Battle Cinematic... I want to see what you can do with this (trial) image. Yes, that is a Stock Panzer 3. With a working turret.

No, the KLAW could be a workable concept, however there is simply no way that a claw would fit into such a small tank. Instead it uses a wheel bearing subassembly to rotate. I suggest you check out Majorrim's stock turret bearing.

lifting them up solves the problem. I had to add invisible floaty clipping wheels to make it move

*Heavy Breathing* http://www./download/8m4j0gc94zh6i70/M.+A.+N.+Panther+II+Asf.+A.craft

craft file or it didn't happen. - - - Updated - - - also, wanna set up a tank battle? Just make a basic sort of tank like an SU-85 or something like that, the guns on the Panzer III are very weak. (Weighs 8 tons tho)

Think I hold the record for the smallest, most compact tank with a turret. (Panzer III)

Couldn't have done this without MJ's bearing assembly. Still isn't fully mechanically reliable, but that's historical

Ahhh, ok. Makes sense. But I still want the illusion of suspension from the bogeys. Anyways here is the finished (maybe) product: Completely modified the chassis but it looks much better.

I think I win Has working turret too Unfortunately it also came with the reliability problems of the real one, such as turret jamming and ....ty suspension (Literally breaks off randomly)

you know those little wheel things at the bottom of the tank? I have the tank down now, but I just need to get some way of preventing them from breaking off suddenly and randomly

Yeah, the bearing works very well with a small turret (don't think any other bearing would have fit) The real problem however is the constant breakage of the lower bogeys when I try to turn at high speeds :/ I can give you the craft file if you want to fiddle with it.

ahhh... I suppose I could revive some of my pre 0.25 designs... We would be more or less evenly matched, as everyone else *Cough* zekes *cough* has superior armor and weapon tech (in space) - - - Updated - - - do the turrets turn?

for my new wwii tank battle cinematic series... probably won't start that until I finish my next tank video

ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy can i has the craft file? ugly panzer 3

my crappy Panzer 3 prototype with turret. It's bad..

does no one ever read the past posts? go back a couple of pages, and you'll find my tank battle post

Moar great cinematics. Also I now know how you get that amazing shake effect. (You use S_Shake don't you ) and I thought you were keyframing all along Once I finish up my new Stock Tank video, I will maybe dabble in a bit of cinematics now that I have more experience with advanced editing. (was sort of thinking of making a world war II video with my tanks.)
