Dozer Mouse Addon Released

alderous has released a Dozer Mouse addon on the BI Forums. This one is mostly for fun.

Here’s what alderous had to say:

It’s a crazy idea which suprisingly comes into life. Generally speaking Dozer Mouse is a single-crewed, turretless, heavily-armed vehicle designed for pure fun (at least for those who think that tanks’ deathmatches are funny). The armament consist of big, hull-mounted gun (can only be raised and lowered at -5/+5) firing HEAT ammo and quite low-powerfull unguided (in fact they are semi-guided because you can aim them like a gun) missiles to deal with the infantry. The vehicle top speed is 60 kmph and it is as tough as BMP-2 (one well aimed shoot will disable or destroy it). Sounds of engine, gun and rockets are custom and there are also flashing red light and siren which can be turned on/off via action menu (some people has begged for implementing that).
In fact it is not very powerfull weapon (especially when manned by AI) and suffers bashing for almost every armored vehicle in OFP, but it wasn’t designed for that purpose. I think that Dozer Mouse should provide a lot of fun in MP.
3d model is very simple (about 700 faces in the first resolution LOD) but as far as I’m concerned it doesn’t really matters in case of DM. This addon wouldn’t be made without help for my friend Offtime who made all textures in amazingly short time (rocket launchers and new rocket 3d models were also his idea).
