[Coding] Improved Eryx mod [WIP]

[R-CON]Mescaldrav · 04-24-2008, 10:09 AM

Shit sorry mods, shouldve gone in here!!

Hi I think the Eryx is overpowered at present and not representative of its real life counterpart, operating more like a TOW.

I have modded the Eryx to how I think it should operate. Basically, it is slower, more manoeverable and has a more visible flame out the back. Here is a video to demonstrate.

It moves at an accurate speed now, taking approx. 4-5 seconds to reach its max range of 600m. It is easier to follow moving targets now, but the missile is easier to see and defeat with smoke than the present lasergun edition. Overall the missile is still pretty lethal, but there is some scope for escaping it now, if you can see the launch. Opinions?

I am also working on an improved predator, that will be quite different to the Eryx!

can you make a vid where you can see it from first person view? i would want to see how much it is guidable...
also i suggest that it should have laser lockon (in general for PR )

Here you go Marco, This shows the controls. Theres a custom optic to come, just finishing it today.....Its nicely guidable without being ridiculous. Wont be laser guided as it is an optically tracked wire guided missile. Downside is it cant interface with other soldiers. The MASSIVE upside is there nothing a tank can do to detect or disrupt your missiles path. Contrary to PR belief, laser guidance has its drawbacks, notably that modern tanks can detect when you're pointing a beam at them. This tends to make them very angry.

The beauty of the Eryx is no one knows your aiming at them until they see the missile.

Looks very good.

A good compromise for both the H-AT (easier to control) and its target (more chance to evade, especially for APCs).

Max range of 600 meters?? So the missile will selfdestruct after reaching that distance?

Lets hope not

No after 600m you run out of wire so it just flies on randomly. Gravity takes over and eventually it hits dirt....

	Turn 360 degrees and walk away is what you should do tbh. - [R-CON]Desertfox
