new hmmwvs

[LimeCordial]

anyone else have problem with the new hmmwvs that have th guns whereby they keep 'bouncing'? this is so annoying.

[CobraSquad]

yeh i have the same problem

have u seen scorpio's ch-53 it looks so kool

[DeadMeatXM2]

Yeah, I have that problem too , they looked good in the screens, but the models lack interior detail, and the bouncing is bloody annoying - PLEASE sort it Quakergamer - I was soooo looking forward to this addon.

[LimeCordial]

i emailed him about it and he just said that other cars do that too.    :-\  

he also said he was happy with the collision detection.....and i guess you know what i mean by that.....?

[DeadMeatXM2]

That sucks  , looks like we'll have to wait for other people to release their HMMVW's for any decent collision models.

[LimeCordial]

yeah. basically it is a rushed addon, you can tell by:

missing textures on TOW launcher (he even acknowledges this)
crappy collision detection (you can drive and walk straight through them)
annoying "bouncing" (other cars dont do this)

That stinks

[STEELE]

I was really disapointed by the fact that the guns cant b used, I toyed around with this for awhile and could not work out how to use them.
 Whats the point of having armed hummers if u can use the weapons!

[LimeCordial]

ah yeah, i initally had this problem. if you are running v1.75 put them into the ofp\addons directory, not ofp\res\addons.

[KevBaz]

the only prob i have is the fact they have no windows and the driver can be shot, no wwe all know hummers r bullet proof, as for the missing textures surely these r only beta, right? the collision things is no problem for me and i get none of this bounce, i can use the guns aswell,k the tow dont fire like a tow, the textures are not all that good, which is why i thought it was a beta, oh well if not ill delete it and wait for the next ones to come along

[KevBaz]

oh and btw i have the pbo in my res addons folder  

[johnnylump]

To start off, 'bout time. Great somebody finally got an armed Hummer put together. But I found another potential issue -- curious if anybody else had it ... I put the armed hummers in a mission with one of the BIS original-game unarmed Hummers, and the game seemed to think the unarmed hummers had a .50 cal MG and extra crewman (you could fire it, but it wasn't visible). I alerted the author to this.

[Intruder]

I don't have the bouncing bug, but I did at first have the no gunner position with V1.75, but quakergamer fixed this and updated the download, now it works.

As for no windows, I can't see them very well, the Alpha channel textures could be more realistic, but I tried shooting the driver, but the bullets didn't go through the window, so I assume they're there.

I think the TOW can't fire a projectile weapon because of the class as a jeep, to make it behave like a jeep. I think cars can only have tracer equiped weapons on them. To have a projectile (fires an actual model) it needs to be in the armoured class for a vehicle.

[NoRSu]

Intruder is right, you can't make a proper TOW for HMMWV unless its classed as APC/tank. Though classing it as an APC/tank wheels won't turn :-\.

[LimeCordial]

yeah i knew that. kevbaz, you say about it only being a beta and thus explains the missing textures, why not just wait until someone can do it? the rest of it is done. oh and you people without the bouncing bug are lucky.
