OK, this won't be finished for awhile, but i'd like to show off the initial concept.

It's a mortar team. Two infantry carry mortar equpiment around the map and must deploy to fire. I'm using the shp as a base, i'll probably release it in 3 colours, desert, camo, and arctic.

Bear in mind i've only just started and it requires lots of work. On the other hand, I don't have to do crawling or crawling and firing frames. The only thing that troubles me is paradropping.

I think it would be too bulky for a paradrop.

[Comrade Kal]

When completed, it'll be public and available on all good resource sites, and a few mediocre ones as well.

[MMk4C01]

cool!!!!

[Rattuskid]

On the paradrop frame, may I suggest the gun be crated up and the two men be sitting/straped onto the crate.

[Dethro]

It is...interesting, to say the least.
Do you want Lao Tze's Mortar image? I have it now and it will soon be available to download freely off my site(eventually).

[Eagle_eye]

interesting

just make sure your turning frames aline up so u dont get people switchin positions

but i like

and agree with fenring about the bulkyness for paradrop

[Apollo]

Well, i already saw and said it before but i'll say again, very cool 8)

[Mig Eater]

Good work, I could probably do with that infantry in D-day

[Rattuskid]

Well, theoretically one could use more than one frame for paradrop , right? All he must do is make the gun the center one that gets the normal parachute, and copy the parachute directly into the infantry shp for the other two men, granted, their chutes won't flatten once they hit ground...

[MMk4C01]

hmm..

[jaco]

dunno if it'll work
:arrow: just try

[Comrade Kal]

I now reveal the new firing anim.

[Godwin]

nice, but its a little strange that the gun moves back after it fires, instead of simultaneously as the projectile is fired

[Godwin]

good job godwin!?

[Dethro]

He means for spotting that. I didn't either, so an echo:

Good job Godwin!

And, Good job Kal. Might be an idea to see if you could get the second trooper to do something during the firing sequences too.

[Comrade Kal]

Actually, for no.2 I was going to make it either mvoe back whilst firing or that, if you notice its not recoil but the soldier pulling ti down as part of the reloading process.

And Dark Elf, funny you should say that, because I want this to be really good before I release it, I was thinking of having the other soldier help reload. I'll see.

[Deathblow Luc]

Kal, if you want, whenever youre done, i can make snow and temperate camouflages for it.

[Comrade Kal]

I actually planned to use the Green Seal to begin with, lol, but then forgot all about it. That'd be great.
