Alright, Well I got textures working, and now I'm looking into animating. :tard: I made a basic tank model to work with, and its a replacement for the crusader tank.
-I changed the model like this:
=========
DefaultConditionState
Model = AVModTank
Turret = Turret
WeaponFireFXBone = PRIMARY TurretMS
WeaponRecoilBone = PRIMARY Barrel
WeaponMuzzleFlash = PRIMARY TurretFX
WeaponLaunchBone = PRIMARY TurretMS
=========

I can animate in GMAX, but how do I put the animations into the game? And which parts of the script do I have to change?

Ok, well I've been working on it for a few hours, and I've been able to rotate the turret, and the tank recoils when a shell is fired.
The only thing that I can't seem to get to work is the placement of the lattack effect (The explosion and the smoke at the end of the barrel). How do I place this? :

[coolfile]

ConditionState = NONE
Model = NVOvrlrd
Animation = NVOvrlrd.NVOvrlrd
AnimationMode = LOOP
Turret = Turret01
WeaponFireFXBone = PRIMARY Muzzle
WeaponRecoilBone = PRIMARY Barrel
WeaponMuzzleFlash = PRIMARY MuzzleFX
WeaponLaunchBone = PRIMARY Muzzle
End

That reflects a conditionstats = none:

What other conditionstates are there? Like for attacking etc.

There's my problem, the muzzle firing animation is BEHIND the tank... How do I solve this?

[Komataguri]

Rotate the model 180 degrees seems to be the logical explanation.


and WTF is that? o_O

It looks like either your muzzle bone isnt linked, doesnt exist, or its pivot point is waaaaay out of place.

Is the muzzle fx object named either MuzzleFX or TurretFX which must be same to the name in INI file.
