Emitting a particle from a set position in a model? (Emitter Node?)

Pages: (1/2) > >>

Demian:

Is there an emitter node of sorts for models from where it would be possible to emit a particle? I'm creating a bomb and I'd like the flame to be at the tip of the fuse.

soba:

I believe you can actually create a joint on the model and have the emitter spawn from there, I've seen tons of vehicles use it

try looking at kaje's minijet

Demian:

Oh yeah. Well I looked through the script and plundered the .dts with Notepad++ but didn't find anything of use.

soba:

function JetEngineImage2::onDone(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
   %obj.unMountImage(%slot);
}

function JetEngineCheck(%obj)
{
//   return;
   if(!isObject(%obj))
      return;

   %speed = vectorLen(%obj.getVelocity());
   if(%speed < %obj.dataBlock.minJetEngineSpeed)
   {
      if(%obj.getMountedImage(0) !$= "")
      {
         %obj.unMountImage(0);
         // %obj.unMountImage(3);
      }
   }
   else
   {
      if(%obj.getMountedImage(0) $= 0)
      {
         %obj.mountImage(JetEngineImage2,0);
         // %obj.mountImage(contrailImage2,3);
      }
   }

   if(%obj.getMountedObject(0))
   {
      if(%obj.getMountedImage(1) $= 0)
      {
         %obj.mountImage(JetEngineImage1,1);
      }
   }
   else
   {
      if(%obj.getMountedImage(1) !$= "")
      {
         %obj.unMountImage(1);
      }
   }

   schedule(2000,0,"JetEngineCheck",%obj);
}

Demian:

I'm not a scripter. Mounting images tells me nothing.
