Available in store - Cargo transport aircraft. This aircraft looks remarkably like the mighty Antonov AN-225, largest aeroplane in the world, but the resemblance is purely coincidence Anyway, the model comes in two flavours - with undercarriage, and without. The undercarriage more than doubles the polygons, so the model without undercarriage is effectively the low poly model. The texture size is 4096x4096, but the textures have to be large for such a large model. The specular map could possibly be scaled down if you want, but the normal map provides detail for the panels and flaps and should be left alone.

Here's a video of a flyover. Thanks to smallg and cybernescence for helping fix the various issues. The pseudo 3d sound part of the script comes from a script posted by HockeyKid a few months ago. This script should work with any vehicle.

I've added a military helicopter to the store .The reason I've gone for generic names for the models is that it's a legal grey area. Some companies, such as Lockheed and Dassault, don't like it when models of their aircraft are sold (the model can look the same as the real thing, as long as the real name isn't used), so I'll avoid using the official names to be on the safe side.

Apart from that the model is then pretty universal for any map....

@Go on, you know you want to
But seriously, Turbosquid sells models with the correct names, but there is a disclaimer in the licence mentioning potential problems with copyright, so I'd rather avoid that.
