Modeling Custom Projectiles

[Deathloc]

When Modeling a Custom Projectile in MS3D. Do I need to add any Joints to it?

I'm wanting it to bounce. So Will It need any Specific Joints?

Please Verify, and Tell me the names.

No joints, I believe.

[Deathloc]

Can you Verify

Also Lego, I might need you to code this Weapon, It's A Grenade Launcher

he cant code stuff (sry lego) i know how to make projectiles bounce, and i have milkshape. the weapon looks good jointwise. are the sizes good? pm me the .dts of the projectile and and gun kthx :D (won't release without you permission)

The DTS Is Fine

I made the .CS perfectly, Except I need it bouncing.

[Jervan]

Can I code it from scratch?

I'm not the best though :P

Do a search of the forums, there was a topic about bouncing. You change some values in the ProjectileData datablock, I think.

I know how to make it bounce. What exactly do you need it to do? Explode after a certain amount of bounces or explode after a certain amount of time? And how high do you want it to bounce?

Also the Bullet Shape doesn't need a joint, unless you want to animate it. Unless a collision mesh is added everything happens at the central axis (at the x=0, y=0, z=0 point in Milkshape)

I'm sure grenades like this explode upon impact.

They Do, But I still want to add a secondary Firing Mode that bounces when Fired.

Look at the Flak Cannon.

[BlockBuilderMan]

Where is the flak cannon? People talk about it, but I can't find it.

[Radial543]

look at my fireball...lol

or go to the topic of where i learned how to make bouncy projectiles..

no. make sure it's pointing the right way, though. i believe the projectiles from all the weapons in the chaos mod are sideways. :/
if you're modelling it in milkshape, the front of the porjectile should be pointing towards the pink line. (same applies for guns,etc)
