Better Abrams

Description
A revamp of most of the tank's sound effects and particle effects along with its firing animation. Sound source credit: AiirSource Military on YT

Known issues:
-Occasionally the projectile may just stop moving and hover in front of the barrel. I've tried solving this before, but I'm not sure if a better and more consistent solution exists.

Also, a command does exist to change the shell speed: "sk_abrams_shell_speed". However, at least in my testing, it doesn't work :(

The mod is good but I'm having problems where the tank in the last part of "Forget about Freeman" continuously shoots and its not hit the door to blow it open

Won't lie, great mod! The sounds are a lot more realistic, but the floating explosives are still a problem.

oh, i see. i actually used that video as reference, funny enough. did try to make it have dust kicked up around the tank, but it might be too faint to notice - i'll see if i can make it a more intense effect.

Okay holy shit, that's a lot of difference.

What would be even nice if each shot from the main gun kicked up dust around the sides of the tank, but not sure if that's even possible to mod in.

i see. well, i've moved it a bit further again, so hopefully that should make it better without making the change in position noticeable.

Seems to be working alot better, only encountered one time it generated a floating explosive so if thats the case it should suffice

will do
