Riding on top of a tank
« on: 28 Jun 2006, 05:11:32 »
I saw a script out there, that had people riding on top of a bmp.  However, I seem to cant find that script :(  Any solutions?

Could it be that it's not a script but an addon? I've seen this done on addon level by just adding cargo seats on top of the vehicle.
Not all is lost.

I saw that script too, but I thought it was just ment to have soldiers sitting on a tank. As soon as you wanted to move the tank they would just fall off  :D

you can either mess around in your editor and place units "seated" on a static tank or make a addon on wich the cargo proxies are outside so people would be placed on it. maybe there is such a script that places them for you and saves you the hassle of placing your units in the editor with the correct anims. but don't think it is good for anything but screenshots.

No, I've seen this script in the past also. I think it takes the unit's position relative to the tanks axis and updates. Like that towing vehicle script.
Dunno where either are now though.  :(

I think I found it, RHS made this script.  They have a download at:  http://files.filefront.com/rhs+t80pack+1/;4412335;;/fileinfo.html

I will see if I can use their script or addon.

Here is a non addon version that used to be in the editors depot if I remember correctly.

The file is only a few kb so its shouldnt take long to download. Also you will have to de-pbo it to see it in the editor.
