guns at plane

[Diepvriezer]

I want to place heavy guns at the civilian plane ...

I know how to do that, but where can I find the list of the weapon names and magazine names off the guns at tanks and choppers etc.

i have never tried to change what weapons a vehicle has...

first, download my Command Reference  ;D (47Kb) http://hammy.netfirms.com/ComRef_191.zip or u can find it in the editors depot

second, start up the commandreference then press ctrl+w)

third, open OFP, create a plane

fourth, go into the planes init field, and put: this addmagazine "AMMO_TYPE" (change AMMO_TYPE to the type of ammo you want the plane to shoot)

fifth, preview the plane in OFP


im pretty sure that this wont work, but its worth a try
if it doesn't work, you might have to create a addon

I still don`t know how to do it

I love this part of editing. This was the first thing I messed around with when I learned the in-game editor. Try this...

Add a civilian plane to the map, then in its init field put this...

this addmagazine "Browning"; this addweapon "Browning"

Your Cessna will now shoot .50 cals from its nose.

Unfortunately, you can't really decide where it fires from, but everything works. The Mavericks on the A-10, the TOWs from the Cobra. Everything. Except infantry weapons.

You can actually do a lot with these simple commands. You can give a simple foot soldier FFARs or TOWs as weapons (although it looks somewhat strange, as they use the standard shoulder fired animation, but there's no model). You can even add a Browning 50 cal to a footsoldier (but it shoots from his chest) The only thing you can't add weapons to, for some reason, is cars.

Anyway, hope that helped a bit.

Ok, thanks, but do you have a list with tanks and planes weapons?
I already have one with soldiers weapons

Try the Unofficial Command reference. Someone around here must have the old link. :\
