The Error Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 The railgun comes from an entirely seperate mod - one for Minecraft, actually - and yes, it can punch holes in reality. Not quite as reality-warping as the Derpcannon, but it can still blap things like mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrototypeTheta Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 Well all of them came from a separate mod, even the KV-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JewelShisen Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Actually I did some test fires with the railgun and it just bounces off of the VAB and SPH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerolfos Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Looks absolutely beatiful. I'm trying it out.But already from screenshots, I wish to request a double barreled version of the FV4201 Chieftain turret.Because that hull immediately makes me think of a Mammoth Tank. For some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilin Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) I'd be ecstatic if we had a Mammy Tank from C&C Renegade; twin Rocket pods and dual 120mm cannons... Simply unstoppable.Also you misspelled BDArmory with BDArmouryI only bring this up because when you drag the files into gamedata you'll have two folders and not one.

PrototypeTheta Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) I wonder if there is anyway to make the Leviathan drain 1000 electriccharge per shot...I literally just figured out how to do that. It would certainly balance the fast fire rate.I've also got a Laser based variant of the Lev turret, think I might be able to make something like a pulse laser...

PrototypeTheta Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 Right now there's not really enough to warrant a seperate package, I've got a few more sci-fi weapons to port, but even then there will only be a handful, and most of them are going to find best use on board capital ships rather than tanks.If I end up with enough sci-fi content I'll probably end up splitting the pack up, but while there's only a handful it's not worth the bother. I do intent to make more sci-fi though, but it could be a while until it warrant it's own download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moar dakka is always welcomed.On the subject of railguns, what are the possibilities of a plasma gun? I realized we can make hover tanks. And then plasma guns are a nescesity!

And then plasma guns are a nescesity!I could sit here and rant for an hour or longer about how ridiculous a "plasma weapon" is but I don't want to waste everyone's time. Suffice to say NO technology exists or is even theorized to exist to create a usable plasma weapon except for having a magnetic field contain it from the weapon to the target but magnets don't do that very well so that's pretty much impossible also so no plasma weapons!Lasers masers particle accelerators etc that's all fully doable (specifically lasers and neutral particle beams) but plasma is no use for anything but cutting steel a few inches away.

Do you have any pulse laser/ electromagnetic accelerator weapons (coil guns/ railguns) for aircraft mounts as a cannon?I was planning to do a fixed mount pulse laser for starfighter type craft, a fixed railgun wouldn't be too difficult.Good, thank you.Well, as long as it has two barrels, it is cool.(What I really was asking for is a Chieftain, as is now, but with twin barrels.)As it is known, the state of enough dakka is a physical impossibility.

Dilin Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I can't get tank treads to work if my life depended on it, any chance we can get full on premade bodies with built in treads, or can someone upload .crafts of these with wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
