a splash of color change would add loads of detail to the model. think of upgrading the skin. splash some other greens in.

Tried my best, I don't know how to texture 3D models.

you did well. a splash of another green like a spray paint tool could be all thats needed. depending on settings it will seem more like a digital camo then anything. wonderful work.

Texture wise a darker tone of green (something like Olive drab, what these tanks were painted in during the war) with a lighter shade of it on the edges of the tank would make the textures look a lot better. right now the tank is too bright and it makes all the details disappear. And personally, while this is something i wouldn't worry about considering until much later, i think the tank should have a few set spawn locations instead of spawning like a normal vehicle.

Thanks for the suggestions. I am actually using the exact same color used in the original paint scheme. However as I said I am not a 3D artist and you can't just slap a texture on vehicles in this game, it has to be done a special way and I can't do it. But I like the spawn idea!

Is the process for add texture to the Sherman different from the cars? I've made a few skinpacks for this game and i didn't find it all that weird, but i wasn't trying to make a working tank either so no clue.

so just as a request can you possibly make a T-34 (85 model) for project zomboid?

It's.... way too small. The real M4 Sherman is about the same width of a 2020 Ford Super Duty pickup truck, which takes up almost an entire lane of a road

i think it would be neat if there was a few other varients like the m32 ARV or 76mm cannon

Gostaria de colocar uma sugestão pois assim como eu que não jogo em multiplayer e nem com amigos, gostaria que tivesse uma opção para atirar também no acento do motorista. Português-BR.

I would like to make a suggestion because just like me, I don't play multiplayer or with friends, I would like there to be an option to also shoot at the driver's seat.

A bit more spacing for the seat change UI I don't wanna fat slide myself on a different seat only to hit the exit vehicle icon or the middle seat
