Hello everyone,

a bunch of HD models that are coming up in 9.6.

AMX-50B (dayum, those curves are sexy)

Object 704

E-100 (this model is unfinished, for some reason the turret is inside the hull)

Ferdinand (also unfinished)

Lowe

T95

Tiger P (still clearly unfinished)

        Lowe front upper plate slope seems to be a bit enhanced… Maybe it’s just the picture…

        On the other hand the lowe turret has been nerfed. Look at the cheeks right by the mantlet and the whole area under the mantlet which is no-longer curved.

E-100 model working as intended.

Finally historical model.

Is periscope turret; only come up when firing; no more spamming HEAT to autopen for you, you EU capitalists!
- Kaennox on January 11, 2015 at 5:13 pm said:
  
  If htey were to make everything historically accurate models we would have many invisible tanks…or 2D blueprints :)
  - manus36 on January 11, 2015 at 5:27 pm said:
    
    Imagine that as an April 1st joke.. 3D sprites of blueprints for you to shoot at, And the gun on the blueprint would just throw a couple “Pew Pew” texts/symbols/thingies when firing.

gunsrlove on January 11, 2015 at 4:20 pm said:

I wonder what WG artist’s process is? As a 3d guy myself, ‘Make the tracks not fit in the hull’ seems like an unnecessary step….

Or is that a bug of some sort ?
- Spirit of Taj Mahal on January 11, 2015 at 4:23 pm said:
  
  What’s probably going on is they move model parts around often, and it just happened to be in this state at the moment of test.

  Misaligned pivots. The tank models are split into the suspension, hull, turret and gun, stitched together by an external script on model load. You mess up one pivot during export and you end up with this.

Look like we finally got the Löwe and E 100 in their hostorical configuration: with crushed suspension.
Alexander Yordanov on January 11, 2015 at 4:40 pm said:

Is the E 100 lower plate FINALLY fixed SS?
- alex16 on January 11, 2015 at 4:45 pm said:
  
  The E-100 is really historical now, only the hull was made IRL
  - Alexander Yordanov on January 11, 2015 at 4:48 pm said:
    
    … I know that…
    And no, it is not. It never had the tracks mounted at all.
    
    I mean whether they fixed the angle on the lower hull.

        Damn, they were mounted at one point.
        
        No answer on the slope though.

        yes, they were mounted.

Random_PC_Errors on January 11, 2015 at 4:47 pm said:

I thought WG were stopping production of HD tanks?? I’m sure I read an article on FTR about how they were discontinued due to the amount of HD space needed for them.

Someone pls explain..

    Did we ever see full HD textures implemented on tanks?
    - Woras on January 11, 2015 at 4:55 pm said:
      
      Why you need them? They look full HD only in hangar and in-battle from 1 meter.

        Thats probably the one and only true reason for not implementing HD textures…

Grumpy_Stranger on January 11, 2015 at 6:06 pm said:

The 50B is still missing the cast armor texture, so it’s for all intents and purposes less finished than the Tiger P that just has it’s hull pivot positioned incorrectly…
YourNIGHTMare on January 11, 2015 at 6:34 pm said:

Nooooooooooooo, not my beautiful T95!!
Please please WG, put the HD rework for it in the same timetable as the Type-59 return to the shop.
I know you’ll nerf it, and again, my most excellent skin will be broken again.
