Metal Gear Rex

Vehicle, Technical, Land, Mechanical, Advanced, Weapons, HOTAS, v1.7.4


Metal Gear Rex! This is the creation I set out to make when I first starting playing this game. With just over 2000 hours later... I finally made the vision a reality! This is as close as i could get it to the real thing in Stormworks. It has functioning gatling guns, a bertha cannon with a range calculator, radar, working auto crotch gun, and TV guided missiles. Enough ordinance to make even Snak...

Metal Gear Rex! This is the creation I set out to make when I first starting playing this game. With just over 2000 hours later... I finally made the vision a reality! This is as close as i could get it to the real thing in Stormworks. It has functioning gatling guns, a bertha cannon with a range calculator, radar, working auto crotch gun, and TV guided missiles. Enough ordinance to make even Snake think twice!

Spawning:

You can spawn it in any large ship harbor, or missions

*Jump from the leg to the ladder on the jaw. From there crouch and walk till you can get in the seat.
*Flip the power systems on the top panel, and then press the stand button to your bottom right, and your good to go.

--------------------
Important:
--------------------
*Due to Stormworks not limiting mouse controls. Make sure to lock the head before going into 3rd person.

--------------------
Weapons:
--------------------
-TV Guided missiles: After firing you have direct control of the missile. Once the missile gets within 1Km of a target. The radar system will take over, and you can let the missile take it from there.

-The Cannon: The cannon corrects for distance, use your A/D/W/S controls to aim. All you have to do is line up a target and wait for the gun to stabilize.

-The Crotch Gun: This is a radar guided gun, and will sweep in front of Rex. If it seas anything within 400 meters, it will shoot. The key on the bottom left will turn it on or off. The gun cannot shoot Rex, but can keep shooting the target even if they go behind you.

-Gatling Guns: The gatling guns are aimed with the head. Use the mouse to turn the head after pressing 1 to unlock it. (WARNING: DO NOT GO 3RD PERSON WHEN HEAD IS UNLOCKED)
