Looks real awesome

HellsHero · June 18, 2008, 11:45:24 AM

Can't wait for it come out.

Reformist · June 18, 2008, 11:50:04 AM

Awesome,
it might could be a
little bit bigger, but its still cool.

captain blue · June 18, 2008, 12:09:40 PM

Could be either a bit less powerful or a louder ticking noise to warn moar enemies

FrAgGEr · June 18, 2008, 12:12:23 PM

Beeping noise is annoying, it should be slow at first and then be fast like the CS bomb.

Crixz · June 18, 2008, 12:14:30 PM

Nice job. Looks like it would be fun to blow people up with.

the_jakester24 · June 18, 2008, 04:06:15 PM

Omg that is cool. I really like the model too :D

LoserHero · June 18, 2008, 10:00:55 PM

Bigger.

Badspot · June 19, 2008, 12:14:57 AM

Model is passable.
Beeping sound is annoying.
Explosion effect needs work.
Damage radius seems high.

Model - Agree
Beeping Sound - Sounds like a seziure. C4 beeps start slow, and slowly get faster.
Explosion - A little more work, perhaps a "Shockwave" particle
Damage Radius - Actually, thats like C4, it is fairly large, that almost seems to...small.

Ok... I'll work on it Badspot...

Anyways... I'm still figuring out what's thetaMax and thetaMin for...

I think since you are making different renditions of weapons, you actually need a bomb. What I mean is that you hold your arms out* and hold the bomb horizontally. Then you can stick it to surfaces and there will be a non annoying beeping sound with a small amount of time in between (and maybe an animation that shows how much time is left until it explodes). It also would leave your inventory when you use it.

* (from Minigun)

Code: [Select]

function minigunImage::onMount(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
	Parent::onMount(%this,%obj,%slot);	
		%obj.playThread(0, armreadyboth);
}

function minigunImage::onUnMount(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
	Parent::onMount(%this,%obj,%slot);	
		%obj.playThread(0, root);
}

I could add the code.

But I cant make it removed from the inventory.

Please look at the code, is there any error?

I tried:

Code: [Select]

   // Initial start up state
	stateName[0]                     = "Activate";
	stateTimeoutValue[0]             = 0.1;
	stateTransitionOnTimeout[0]       = "Ready";
	stateScript[3]                  = "onDMount";
	stateSound[0]					= weaponSwitchSound;

	stateName[1]                     = "Ready";
	stateTransitionOnTriggerDown[1]  = "Fire";
	stateAllowImageChange[1]         = true;
	stateSequence[1]	= "Ready";

	stateName[3]                    = "Fire";
	stateTransitionOnTimeout[3]     = "End";
	stateTimeoutValue[3]            = 0.1;
	stateFire[3]                    = true;
	stateAllowImageChange[3]        = false;
	stateSequence[3]                = "Fire";
	stateScript[3]                  = "onFire";
	stateWaitForTimeout[3]			= true;
	stateEmitter[3]					= null;
	stateEmitterTime[3]				= 0.05;
	stateEmitterNode[3]				= mountNode;
	stateSound[3]					= C4BombPlantSound;
   stateSequence[3]                = "Fire";
	//stateEjectShell[3]       = true;

	stateName[4]			= "End";
	stateScript[4]                  = "onDone";

};

function C4BombImage::onDMount(%this, %obj, %slot)
{
	%obj.cbomblotsave = %obj.currTool;
}

function C4BombImage::onFire(%this, %obj, %slot)
{
	%obj.playthread(2, shiftAway);
	Parent::OnFire(%this, %obj, %slot);

	for(%i=0;%i<5;%i++)
	{
		%toolDB = %obj.tool[%i];
		if(%toolDB $= %this.item.getID() && %i == %obj.cbomblotsave)
		{
			%obj.tool[%i] = 0;
			%obj.weaponCount--;
			messageClient(%obj.client,'MsgItemPickup','',%i,0);
			serverCmdUnUseTool(%obj.client);
			break;
		}
	}
}

function C4BombImage::onDone(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
	%obj.unMountImage(%slot);
}

Ok... I'll work on it Badspot...

Anyways... I'm still figuring out what's thetaMax and thetaMin for...

Those are the angles at which particles are emitted around the Emitter. It goes from thetaMin = -90 to thetaMax = 90 (A sphere). You can very well have thetaMin = 89 and thetaMax = 90 to get a farily straight upward spray of particles. thetaMin cannot equal thetaMax otherwise Torque gets pissed off.

The general Rocket Launcher explosion has a thetaMin of 0 and thetaMax of 90 (half a sphere, pointing upwards)
