@Stormfur They had to, cuz Porsche was so sure of his victory in the tiger competition, he already ordered the production of it and when his design failed against Henschel's design, they already had dozens of hulls built. So instead of disassembling them and using the parts to build other tanks, they just modified the blueprints to make it a tank destroyer... which was equally a failure as the original because it was still unreliable etc.
Be creative, think of a vehicle you always wanted to drive, or a vehicle you really really like. I can't really understand people who "run out of ideas" in simpleplanes, while I'm standing here with 10+ unfinished projects and ideas I haven't started building yet. Is it really that easy to not to know what you want to build in a game where you can build literally anything? But if you really can't decide, here's an idea:
Turn on the TV and build the first vehicle you see in it
Good luck! ;)
@isaacmimy12 I wasn't using any blueprints when I built mine. I was only looking at my model Abrams I have at home and followed pure eyesight (that's why the size and shape of my Abrams is incorrect at many places)
But I still find it very interesting that parts on your turret have the exact same numbers as parts on my turret.
@Mobius1Cyka I did a little reserach and comparsion with my Abrams cuz the turret shaped looked very familiar. Well, some fuselages in the turret had the same sizes so much that it can't be just a considence (for example: one of the side panels have 3.7752 height and 0.25 width on one end and 4.7562 hight and 0.25 width on the other end, 2.5 lenght and -0.375 rise. exactly the same numbers what the same panel has on the turret of my Abrams; The front panel of the turret has 2.35 lenght, -1.38 rise and 0.625 run, again, exactly the same numbers as on the front panel of my Abrams' turret. These numbers are so random, it can't be a coincidence) However, many things are changed compared to my tank, plus the hull must have been built from scratch cuz that shows no resemblance to mine.
In conclusion:
he probably took my turret, heavily modified it and put it on his hull
OR
he took parts of my turret and used them for the building of his own turret
But I'm not 100% sure but those numbers are really hard to be a coincidence, but there's a chance it's just a coincidence.
It's a nice build anyways and there's a lotta effort in it for sure
@TheMitsuboshiBoi I never really planned to ever make a Porsche Tiger (that guy simply took my turret without asking and added a few stuff to make it look like a porsce tiger turret) but I don't really want to build a Porsche Tiger now, maybe in the future but not anytime soon

@aerodummy to be honest, I didn't want to, I wanted the bergetiger to be the last version. But then the tracks 2 mod came and I had to try it out and it turned out so good I felt like sharing it, then someone requested to make tiger 131 with the mod so I was like, ok why not. But yea I really don't want to look like Im riding the same thing forever, I have a bunch of projects going on at the moment and I'm working hard to finish those as soon as possible, just to finally upload something different.
@Bman01 Ah yes, Gestour would be great too! I was also thinking of Duckmint, he could spice up the vanilla map with some awesome stuff (new isands and more cool details to the existing ones etc.)
@Schiefensnarglez Yep I was thinking about him too, but there are other very talented modders too. But MOPCKOEDNISHE could really add some very great stuff as a dev
Awesome! Congrats to WNP78!
Also you should pick more modders into the team because some of them are making god level mods that should be in the vanilla game
It wasn't 10 meters long, only ~8.5 m, and no german tank ever had a camo like this, plus the drive wheels of the tracks were at the front end not the rear end. But apart from these it looks good.
@TheAmericanPilot thanks sherlock, I know it has, I'm not blind.
1. I answered to Adler like that cuz he sometimes tends to write troll comments and writes negative stuff without any constructive part (I'd accept his comment if he said something like "it had a camo but apart from that, the rest of the build is good, maybe a few more details there and there would be better, but I like xy part", so a normal critical comment where he states both the positive and negative part in my build so I know where to improve but I also get some inspiration to do so because Im not only told about mistakes but about positive stuff too)
So I dont take comments like these seriously
2. If I made the camo, that would add a lot more parts, so its better like this, more ppl can use it, if you look around my profile, I like to spare some details so that the build is made of less parts and more ppl can download it.
@ThatAircraftCompany almost all of them. I haven't even read the instructions on the mod's original page, just downloaded it and kept trying and testing to see which one does what and I recommend doing this. Download this build and see for yourself what did I change and in what way 😉
@Cashewisacoolcat We'll see. For now, I have a bunch of other projects to finish (check out my back from hiatus! post to see what projects I am working on at the moment)
@Jim1the1Squid The projectile itself is just a simple unguided missile (with a boom 50 attached to it) I just modified its size and range with xml editing
@Jim1the1Squid
1. I know it's the museum version (don't worry, my build will be the ww2 version)
2. I know it's a bit too close to the shore, but I wanted it to be close enough that the "35" on it's side is visible and legible so that ppl who are not that good in recognising ships can see the hull number and search it up
@Awsomur none, it's all just photoshop. I just downloaded some materials to make the backgrounds (trees, ocean, sky, dirt etc. all different pictures) and then downloaded pictures of the vehicles and put them on the backgrounds.
@Jim1the1Squid No, there's no difference. It doesn't have any weapons and it's controls are all rigged so it can't do anything apart from it's original purpose:
The big ships stay put, the landing crafts go straight forward

@Luuksara1 Great!
see? it's not that hard to find new ideas to build :D

@pancelvonat I'd rather say this is an D variant cuz the E varinat had additional armour on the front of the hull

@wonkapilot Here it is: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/8G9qr6/Pz-Kpfw-VI-Tiger-I-131-with-Tracks-2-mod
@D0g yep, my Tigers are around that number (even lower than that)
@D0g My track system (which is actually Minecraftpoweer's system, he just taught me how to make it) would add about ~200 parts to the build
It wasn't 10 meters long, only ~8.5 m, and no german tank ever had a camo like this, plus the drive wheels of the tracks were at the front end not the rear end. But apart from these it looks good.

@TheAmericanPilot sry, I had to reupload it, screwed some stuff up, but it's good now (sry for the inconvenience)
@TheAmericanPilot sry, I had to reupload it, I made the tracks wider to look better
Absolutely amazing!
I tested it with my latest build, my Bergetiger, and it works perfectly, great job!

@Jim1the1Squid There's no muzzleflash, that's just the smoketrail of the missile

@LotterCrafts I know, but I only planned to build the Henschel variants

@Jim1the1Squid No because it has no weapons, it's just decoration/target, but it doesn't attack
@NicePlanes Cool, I'm looking forward to see these improvements :)
