Modification Help / Re: How to make the rotors really rotate...really

« on: July 11, 2007, 02:27:06 PM »

Try adding this to the CS file:

function [Helicopter Vehicle]::onAdd(%this,%obj)
{
   %obj.playThread(0,"ambient");
}

Do i need to change [helicopter vehicle] to something else or just leave it?

Any other ideas? Have you done this your self?

Which exporter should I use?

Torque DTS Plus

or

Torque Game Engine DTS   ?


EDIT: I tried the top one (the plus exporter) and it didn't work. The vehicle spawned but the animation didn't play. Help please. :(

Go to Materials then press New.  Then click one of the <none> bars and find the texture you want.

Next, select the group (primitive, ect) that you want to apply the color to. After selecting it, go back to the Materials menu and hit Assign.

The color should appear then. If it doesn't then make sure the window your viewing is set to textured mode (so you can see the texture).

Thats my 'tutorial'.

Ok, the title was like that just as a joke but my question is serious.

If I model a helicopter, animate it so the rotors spin and make that animation cyclictic, would the blades spin automatically when I spawn the vehicle or do I need some custom code in the vehicle file for them to work?

If anyone could give the code, (should only be a few lines I suppose), I would be most appreciative.

Thanks,

Chris

Could possibly done as a "bot" vehicle that is set to follow 2 waypoints. It wouldn't stop but its your best bet.

Have a super-religious-extremist attack.

Basically make him throw a huge bible/quran/holy scripture that detonates on impact. Also, make it display a server message when it does impact so everyone knows about it and can pretend to care...just like the world news.

you also need to make a "Demands GUI". Basically allows terrorists to type in a list of demands that they can send to another player. That way you can ransom off the players u have as hostages.

If someone does it, make the jeep turn into Hound.

You want a jeep that turns into a dog?

Well, in theory, you could have a vehicle (say a car) and you give it a transforming animation. Then you code it so that as soon as the animation has finished playing it quickly replaces the model of the car with that of a walking, killing robot.

But that would require 2 models and alot of work.

Good luck with that....

I know the discount is open to everyone. My point is that he didn't tell US, the users of these forums and the prior users of 0002 about this great deal.

..and no, I'm not going to buy the game again. Lol...

ok...Then why weren't we informed of this great deal (if it is official). I mean, shouldn't the loyal or semi-loyal players of BL get the discount...not outsiders.

I hope it wasn't authorised by BS because that feels/smells like betrayal. :(
