[Triggerhappy]

no matter what you add, it isn't gonna show up on the model when you add it.
can you get in the vehicle and be a gunner?

BTW: name stealer!   ;D

[Trigger_Happy]

The only way to add a weapon to a vehicle is to edit the p3d model for that vehicle.

Basically you need to add a proxy for the weapon and then add the relevant bits to the config.cpp for that model.

WADI made a script that allows you to put a MG on any vehicle, but it would look pretty funny on a cesna. ;D

Anyway, here is a link to the script in the editor depot:

I actually tested it on a Cesna just to goof around.  Be carefull where on the Cesna you position the MG, if it is in a place where the plane is potentially beteen the MG line of fire and the enemy the MG guy will shoot the plane down while trying to shoot the enemey ;D

i dont mean pysically putting the mg on it... i mean putting the mg gun inside it like putting hellfires on a apache
