Making a vehicle. Criticism welcome.

[Barakuda]

Yes, IT   IS   A   PLANE   !

I am making (made) a Fokker DR1, German plane from WW1 (I think), and, if any of you mortal people have something
to criticise, go ahead! Oh, and a scripter would be good, too.

There is no wheels or animations yet, and its V1.

I hope I didnt post the same pic twice :P

First person view doesn't look very good. Make it so that you can actually see out of the front.

[Barakuda]

This isnt even a vehicle yet. As I said, I dont know how to make vehicles, so I made a Weapon_Fokker and spawned it
on the brick. And I didnt go in first person, i just teleported there.

[Space Guy]

Oh, right. Some vehicles end up released like that and they're really annoying to pilot so I was just making sure.

Since were talking about joints, what are the names of 1st and 3rd person joints?

[CopBlock]

Looks pretty good

[ArmyUnit]

I look forward to this.

Just don't make it too armored.

1st person for the driver is mount0
I think 3rd person is done automatically... (Correct me if im wrong)

[goz3rr]

You do the 3rd person part in the script:

Code: [Select]

// 3rd person camera settings
cameraRoll = false;    //Roll the camera with the vehicle?
cameraMaxDist = 11;    //Far distance from vehicle
cameraOffset = 6.8;    //Vertical offset from camera mount point
cameraLag = 0.0;       //Velocity lag of camera
cameraDecay = 1.75;    //Decay per sec. rate of velocity lag
cameraTilt = 0.3201;   //tilt adjustment for camera: ~20 degrees down

MOTHER FOKKER!

Looks cool, but this is a bit similar to the biplane. Then again, there have been quite a few similarities to the original gun...
