It's a tram, w/e.  Reference said it was MS-4 Motor Car.  It's not any specific tram.  I'm taking pieces from a lot of old trams that I like.  Take a look here for all kinds of good references.  http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1431673&page=24

It'll be just a static but hopefully you will be able to enter it.

These aren't exactly real life pictures, but it would definitely help your concept with the destroyed version, valleyman: :) (if you want to go for that look)

Yes, it had them since 1913 and until war came to Stalingrad in 1942:

Thaaaaat's quite a daunting task there ;) but...

To make a new model, you'll need 3Ds Max9 and the POE2 exporting tools.

If you just want to skin current soldier models in game, you really just need Photoshop or some other good image editing program.

As for tutorials; if you're a first time modeler or skinner...

This was my first texture tutorial;
http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/tutorials/skinningdingo.php ;)

And I'm pretty sure this was my first modeling tutorial;
http://cgi.tutsplus.com/tutorials/beginner-modeling-methods-and-techniques-in-3ds-max--cg-2602

I can't remember which one I started on but cgtuts+ is a great site.

Also all these tutorials are a good way to learn 3D Modeling workflow
http://blip.tv/cgtuts/next-gen-weapon-creation-part-1-the-high-poly-model-2472848
(This is only part 1 and is a bit more advanced, kinda requires you to know your way around 3DsMax quite a bit)

Also remember with whatever you're trying to model or texture; learning something like that takes  tons of patience (hence why people get paid to do it)

Good luck :)

Really cool Ivancic, glad you are taking a jump into the modding!

Yeah Matt said everything I could think of, except you might need Zbrush (at least I think this is what the team uses) or Autodesk Mudbox to sculpt out those heads and details going into them. ;)


Rad did this, I think those 3 heads to right goes from 3ds Max, Zbrush (to make those cool details), and the texture with Photoshop.


Another one

You can download 3DsMax student version, not sure if it's limited version...

And also not sure if new 3DsMax version will work for FH2/BF2 - I think I've read about it somewhere here...

As Matt Baker said, 3ds Max 9 is the latest you can work with exporting to BF2/FH2.

Is 3d max 9 from 2014?And is it big like 3 Gig?

Do i need to make only soldiers head and then put it on body that(what i see) every soldier has in FH2?It seem that you dont have to work body only head.

Then can i make uniform for it but put german helmet and equipment?

First ask yourself: Do I know how to model a chair? No? In that case you are in no way qualified to model a soldier.
