Version 2.0 release

Since there's been somewhat of a renewed interest in the 2A7 and it being one of my earliest mods I decided to remake it at a slightly higher quality.

Compared to previous release:

• Now uses 2A6 as a base hull model rather than the original 2AX hull, as that was never meant to be fully seen. In practice this means somewhat higher quality model and textures as well as better sideskirts.
• Minor details added to the 2A7 APU that were previously missing - a couple handles and reflective lights
• Smoke grenade launchers now have caps, they will however remain even after firing off smoke. Previously the caps were always missing. Can't sync them to the smoke reload, sorry - modding limitation.
• (Optional) Reflective triangles from the Polish special skins added
• The .cdf file has been completely rewritten for readability. Everything is clearly marked and named. The optional remote weapon station and reflective triangles are marked as optional and easily removed by just simply deleting the relevant line.
• Replaced 2AX UI icons with 2A6. Not an exact match to the model, but close enough.
• Included is a localization file that will rename all instances of Leopard 2AX to Leopard 2A7-130
• Now supports @TeyKey1's modloader app.

Update 26/08/2022

New version now uses a different method for removing the original spaced armor and turret that keeps the clientside hitbox.
Now, the penetration indicator will function properly as if dealing with an unmodded Leopard 2AX.

New version requires a FRESH INSTALL OF THE MOD! Delete previous version before installing.

If you don't remove the previous version files things will break. If you come back asking how to fix it I will laugh at you.

Based on @TobiichiOrigami's Leopard Revo/2A7-140 hybrid, I decided to make my own replacement, using models from 2A6's Bundeswehr skin (the actual 2A7) and 2AX's 130mm gun.

The 2A7's extras like the APU are tweaked to not use the Bundeswehr skin and instead properly take base paints and camos. However, until a camo or base paint is applied they have a distinctly different color from the rest - but it shouldn't be an issue as even bots don't usually run raw vehicles.

Previous version (OBSOLETE)
