Come on people dont any of you wanna help??

[Cpl. Vagabond]

come on ppl, once i've made my Wheelchair o' doom mega pack then i can make my Bathtub of destruction

[Schlicki]

It would really help if you desribed the problem or error message you get.

[Cpl. Vagabond]

hey the problem is that the dam thing won't appear on any menu

[Schlicki]

I had a prblem like that before. But I really don't know what I changed to make it work.
 All I know is that I changed the class name of my plane in the config like you got chair you should try putting wheelchair in. It might cause problems since there are already chairs in the game, although those should be in a very different class.

that's the only way how I can explain how I got rid of that

[Cpl. Vagabond]

ok

[bigcheese]

could you make me a hand glider 'o' of doom?!
if you say yes i can put you in touch of a geezer who can help!

[Cpl. Vagabond]

there was just a hand glider made, all the handglider o' doom would be one with maybe an uzi and new texture...metallica texture.

[Schlicki]

did you get the wheelchair working now?

[Cpl. Vagabond]

no

[Schlicki]

that was fast...still same problem?

[Cpl. Vagabond]

yup same prob

[Lt.Shitkilla]

like i think was said above, there would already be an object named chair, so change the config to sumthin like:
class CfgPatches
{
        class wheelchairdoom
        {
                units[] = {wheelchairdoom};
                weapons[] = {};
                requiredVersion = 1.00;
        };
};

class CfgVehicles
{
        class All {};
        class AllVehicles: All {};
        class Land: AllVehicles {};
        class LandVehicle: Land {};
        class Car: LandVehicle {};
        class Jeep: Car {};
        class wheelchairdoom: Jeep
        {
                scope=public;
                crew=Civilian2;
                vehicleclass="Doom Pack"; //changes menu it's in
                maxSpeed=150;
                side=Tcivil;  // You want it to be on the civilian side??
                displayName="Civilian Wheelchair";
                brakeDistance=2;
                sensitivity=0.600000;
                armor=50;
                accuracy=0.80;
                fuelCapacity=100;
                model="\vag_chair\chair";
                type=VArmor;
                cost=100000;
                terrainCoef=0.200000;
                armorWheels=0.120000;
                weapons[]={};
                magazines[]={};
        };
}

P.S. i m not a coder/config writer so do not trust all the info above to achieve what u want..

Lt. Shitkilla

[Cpl. Vagabond]

dammit, it still don't work

[Lt.Shitkilla]

Try this:

class CfgPatches
{
   class DOOMChair
   {
      units[] = {wheelchairdoom};
      weapons[] = {};
      requiredVersion = 1.01;
   };
};
class CfgVehicles
{
   class All {};
   class Static: All {};
   class Building: Static {};
   class NonStrategic: Building {};
   class TargetTraining: NonStrategic {};
   class TargetGrenade: TargetTraining {};
   class wheelchairdoom: TargetGrenade
   {
      model="\WheelChairDoom\chair.p3d";
      vehicleclass="Doom Pack";
      armor=200;
      scope=2;
      displayName="Wheel Chair";
   };
};

this will only make it a static object, but it will show you whether there is a prob with the model, or the config.

P.S. Make sure the model path in config is the same as the path of the actual model, eg in the Doom.pbo model name = chair it would look like:

model="\Doom\chair.p3d";

Thats all i can think of right now, just write any errors u have or any updates in this forum.

[Cpl. Vagabond]

Does this thing rides by now ? If not, I'd like to help 'cause I Personnally Myself fully support crazy projects & funny addons. I love them ! If still in a mess, you can send me the .p3d file, that I promess I wo'nt steal , and... get a modest look at it. For the few I did, getting ingame wasn't too much trouble, altough I'm far from others & do not promise anything...
smon0811@freebel.net.

[Cpl. Vagabond]

Have you got my e-mail, i sent it to you but i don't even know if you've got it yet, plz take a look i'm planning a version with a snow plow which i want to release

[Lt.Shitkilla]

Could You Please either upload the current .pbo file or send it to me (a5hl3y_f15her@hotmail.com) so i could have a look at it, and By the way, what version of OFP are u running?

P.S. Are you creating the addon in O2/Maya/3DSMax ?

[Cpl. Vagabond]

in o2

[Lt.Shitkilla]

guess what?

by changing one thing, i got it in game!!! in the menu and evrything, the problem was the displayname was too big, i just changed it to "Wheelchair" and it works, it just doesn't move yet. It does not drive on the sands of desert island, i havn't tried malden or the other islands yet. i will see what i can improve, and send it back to you...

cya, Lt. Shitkilla

[Cpl. Vagabond]

ARGGGGGGGGG YAY!!!!

[Lt.Shitkilla]

Vagabond, Did this help?

Lt. Shitkilla

[Cpl. Vagabond]

ye, i'll find out if it works once i've finished like 300 other things

[Lt.Shitkilla]

to get it to move, just add sum weight to it in the Geometry LOD in O2, and btw, was it ur intention to have the wheelchair go backwards?

when u get the prelim things finished, u shoould add a few AA Missiles and rockets, a 30mm Cannon, then it will truely be a Wheelchair of Doom!!!

[Cpl. Vagabond]

i'll check it out now, but i wanted to make a few different wheelchairs, i'd like them to have reverse.

[Lt.Shitkilla]

i asked if u wanted it to go backwards because that's all it did, lol, u just had it around the wrong way in O2, so all u'll have to do is go into O2, into the top view and flip it.

i have done this, and now it works, reverse, forwards, and does wheelies but this may only be because it is one of the lightest things i have ever seen, it nearly flies. and are you sure a wheelchair could go 150mph and still stay intact?

IDEAS FOR NEW WHEELCHAIRS:
   'Racing Chair'
   'Minesweeping Chair'
   'Airplane Chair'
   'Dual Seater Chair'
   'Bulletproof Chair'
   'Chair With Rollcage'

[Cpl. Vagabond]

kool, well fix it and e-mail it to me plz

[Lt.Shitkilla]

Will Do Chief, and do u want it to ur hotmail addy, or the other?

Lt. Shitkilla

[Cpl. Vagabond]

SpeciminX@aol.com please

[Lt.Shitkilla]

Just a general note to all budding O2 modellers, try to keep the face count down on your addons. if you are searching for detail, try to use textures to achieve this.

Less Faces = Less Lag,
Less Lag = More Happy Customers
