it wont work, you cant have a vehicle that has wheels and has rockets

What do you mean?
The DKM Mod made the ADATS, it fires missiles.
And the Gaskin is the same isn't it?
Its just an AA weapons such as the ADATS.

There's probely a answer to this somewhere else but here goes.
The thing with rockets/misiles on wheelled vehicles, is it something that bis can change without redoing the game engine??

probably not, all the simulations are hard coded (ie tank, plane, helicopter etc) and all the things that go with that like gear down/turn in/out are coded into these, you can slightly edit them in the cpp but some things just cant be edited, and as bis didnt need any missiles on a car they didnt code it, same with gunners in planes and more than one gunner

I downloaded a BMP with Sam capabilities. Look for VIK SAM BMP in addons depot. Only problem is that it's labelled Vik Sam Bmp even when you play the game. Just aint right. >:(.

Anyways why can't you just make a Gaskin with tank tracks? duh. (Like the one in "Behind enemy lines"-the film).

Oh yeah and you need something for Soviets, too, and maybe NATO (I just can't hit a thing with those shilkas, aspecially planes)

I got the idea about it from that film but when i looked for pictures a couldn't really get a good one with tracks so i got that one. Well does any one know if theres one being made with tracks on it instead of wheels?

if its a gaskin with tracks...its no longer a gaskin :) as far as i can see the only viable SA-#'s are the SA-13 and SA-15(the 2S6M is another AA vehicle but not a sole surface-to-air), the SA-9 has wheels and the SA-6 has detachable missiles on a turret(which cant be done in ofp, the missiles wont move while the turret rotates), whereas the SA-13 Gopher is a tracked tube launched missile firing SAM

SA-13

SA-15
(http://fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/missile/row/sa-15-img002.jpg)

Ive made an MT-LB which is the APC which the SA-13 is based on, so as soon as its textured ill see if i can make one :)
