config and more.help needed
« on: 05 Mar 2005, 14:57:19 »
Hi all
        I've spent three days trying to config my model, a bunker with a 47mm turret for a project. See more at      http://www.freewebs.com/ofp-screens/

The model in question is the last two images on the page.

I can get it in game and enter the position, however I cant fire and the turret axis seem really off. Im confident I have set my points up correctly in 02, (do points face different direction?)

Why does my bunker hover 1 metre above ground, although it is placed on ground plane in O2?  Not enough mass?

Also please see my config for any other issues.

Thanks ever so much for any help, once I've cracked the turret I can complete my defence bunkers and start on some ideas I've going to implement...more to come.

Cheers
Steve

Not an expert or anything here, but I think the Turretbase class should be defined in the cfgVehicles section as a subclass of the model.

Look at the commented configs from BIS, in particular the config entry for the M2 or M113.

EDIT:  I also note you have no cfgModels section

Thanks for the response Im looking at the commented configs now, but I just really cant get my head round it.

Is it possible you could explain a little more? Code snippet?   All I've been able to do is patch other peoples configs together, with, as you have seen, very little success  :-(

Believe me I have read all of the available tutorials etc, it just hasnt sunk in yet  ???

Thanks again

Steve :)

I'll have a look-see, can't promise anything though.

MRsteve, I suggest you try reading more configs, you need to find out yourself the order, placement, and definintion of all the cfg lines. Your weapon won't fire because your CfgAmmo is completly wrong. I can't show you how to do it because there are too many custom lines to add, but I suggest you try looking at someone else's config under the CfgAmmo section. Remember this; If you can't figure it out yourself, look for an example. Never try and config something on your own if you are uncertian about it.

Also, add land contact points/LOD to your model, since it is no longer a house, it needs to know how to behave as a vehicle.

As Kyle said, you really need land contact points for your model now that it isn't a building any more.

Also....have you got a gunner proxy in the model for the gunner?

I presume your turret will be firing Sabot type ordnance.

yes good tip about the land contacts
the gun is meant to be a 47mm

Thanks again guys

47mm....hmmmm

Would it not be better using the same type of ammo and weapon as the shilka's cannon?
