BC'42: that Excavator
Does anyone know where this excavator came from?

Re: BC'42: that Excavator
Most likely a cut and paste job by the dev team of the editor to add to the aesthetics of the game editor installer and the editor. I doubt that ever existed as a vehicle in BF1942. 




I have cameras in your head!

Re: BC'42: that Excavator
Maybe it was made for a special "Battlecraft 1942" side mod, and then the object was deleted upon the release of the program.
See my Strasbourg map project here.
Re: BC'42: that Excavator
I think Apache said it best in that it just represents a "construction theme" being it is a map editor that one "constructs" their map with. Actually a silly thread but it gives me a chance to mention that there was a mapping team, forget their or his name? I think it was DCMAPS or something of that nature, but anyhow they had created a model of a big TEREX dump truck, you know big yellow suckers used in mines. Anyhow I still have that stuff somewhere if anyone might be interested. There were some UN vehicles too, but the models are not the best in the world, though I suppose someone could clean them up and fix the textures. In fact the map might have been DC Quarry if I am not mistaken, like I said I will look it up if interested.
Re: BC'42: that Excavator
You have DC Quarry? I've been looking for that map for a few years and could never find it. I remember downloading a bunch of DC related mods just to see if they had that DC Quarry map with the huge dump truck in it. I played it a long time ago, and lost the mod it was in somehow (back when I didn't know anything about computers).
I'd be excited to get that map once again.

Re: BC'42: that Excavator
Sure no problem Swaffy, It was a kewl map wasn't it (in a weird way)? With a little work someone could do some interesting things with that truck. Your sudden interest prompted me to look and sure enough I found it along with three others by "DCM". I have along with DCM_Quarry, DCM_Operation Razor, DCM_Operation Sid II, and DCM_Twin_Rivers. If interested in the others I will upload them for down load.
In the meantime, you can download DCM_Quarry here.
I have gigs and gigs of this stuff all the way back, along with many of the first versions of popular mods too.

Re: BC'42: that Excavator
Here is a dump truck from the map Le Mans on the Highway, from the is82 mod...A mega 1 gig map with loads of great vehicles




Re: BC'42: that Excavator
That looks like the one from Quarry with a new and better skin. GoodDay, did you look at the DC Quarry map? Or do you not have DC installed? If not I will try to get a screen. I have some real old copies of I82 if your interested btw, some of the very first versions.

Re: BC'42: that Excavator
It probably is then. I did not look at the map. I do have DC installed. I believe you so I don't really need to take a gander:) But thank you sir. The first versions of existing maps? Custom maps? Or both? You can send them if you want....I am interested in anything Interstate:) I am currently working on Deathrace 4....Love me some is82!!cajunwolf wrote:That looks like the one from Quarry with a new and better skin.

Re: BC'42: that Excavator
Good chance it is. I think the Wastelands used it re-skinned also.
I plan to put all the mods and versions I have up on my site as time permits, I will send you a link once up.
