    "Sherman Ace" / M4A3(76)W



    This is not an M4A3(76)W HVSS, aka M4A3E8(76)W, despite what the skin might have you believe. Hopefully, someone can make a proper HVSS model to mix with this so that we can have all three major late war variants!

    Provided as is. Enjoy!

    Credits go to Relic Entertainment for the model, textures and animations.

    Thanks to DMz and ^Beefy for extracting it from COH:O.

    Model looks nice, thanks for digging it up from the CoHO files and releasing it eli! But shouldn't this be in the Ammo Box?

    So, is it possible to activate the pictured render? I copied the M4 sherman ebps and then copied the upgrade_action (from the action_apply_ext) into the new entity and it appeared as a normal Sherman in-game. Am I linking it incorrectly, or is the render incorrect.

    Ah, I guess providing the files exactly as extracted is the cause. The game prefers the archived versions of the art files over the unarchived versions. What you will have to do is either rename all the art files you extracted to sherman2 (or whatever floats your boat) or move them to a different folder (sherman_ace or similar). This is also the reason I put art files in american, german, etc. instead of allies, wehrmacht, etc.

    Crap. I already moved everything into their respective folders (merged the existing data and dataattrib folders).

    EDIT: So, so far as I can tell the new files overwrote the original Sherman files. So the normal Sherman etc are using the CoHO versions of the file since I just merged the folders. Should I still make a new folder for the Ace?

    Hah. I forgot to change the loadout of the Ace's squad to include the Ace instead of the Normal Sherman. (time to uninstall CoH ). Model looks great, thanks again for the upload.

    Can someone help me with this?

    I made sherman_ace as an upgradeable action. The skinned sherman behind is the exactly same unit just without sherman_ace upgrade.
    I put new model into the separate folder and changed all links to new destination. I do not know where i did wrong... Just point me which file should i check. Thx in advance.

    Did you move the textures into a different folder? Unfortunately, texture swapping actions are not dynamic and expect textures to be in one place. I believe textures are an exception to the rule mentioned above.

  18. #18
    Yes I moved everything in different folder as you mentioned above...
    I'll try move shared_textures back in the default folder. I'll replay later.

    Yes! It works! Many thx eli. ->> btw. can you also help me with this?
    Texture files have to be in the original place. I can upload functional tank if anyone is interested.

    If you are asking if I know someone who can make that, then no. I have a feeling that very few people would be interested in modeling it, since only one saw combat. Also, it's a T26E4, not an M26E4, since it was only a prototype (T meaning trial model).

    It's not a skin. As for getting a custom model to work online, you will have to ask in The Armoury.
