Tank models?

ya iv seen tank models that would fit nice for a BF2 or CS themed map but the head never moves? so it looks dumb i was just wondering isn't the head of the Scorpion tank its own model so i can make 2 separate ones. as in one for the body and one for the tank head that way it swivels because i have a good idea for a BF2 themed map and i need a Sherman that works

in order for that to work you would need to export the model with its bones and then reinject it with the bones.

yup, Cause if im right if you model the top part of the tank but leave the barrel off it will still rotate. Then just model an unused bloc to be the tank's barrel and attach it to the barrel's bone so it will move.

alright thanks turk will do and hopefully you guys will see a nice bsp conversion thats themed to be like real combat

Edit but because my school stuff is starting back in 2 weeks it will probably all be done around middle of september
