I was thinking to myself at work about the flame thrower infantry for an old C&C game and thought it would be cool to have one in ZH. So i go looking though the ini files when i got home and took the dragon tank weapon and replaced the ranger's primary weapon with it. I got in to test it, worked great, with the exceptions of the muzzle flash, fire from feet and i wasn't able to target the dragon tank.


So my question is, is it possible to coppy the dragon tank's weapon entry, paste it in as a new entry, then change the name and it work? I was thinking since used the dragon tank's entry that's why it wouldn't let me attack it.

One more quicky. are there any texture templates for the pre-existing units?

Thanks in advance.

the flamethrower is based on the AmericaInfantryBiohazardTech.

      Model = NIFLAM_SKN
      IdleAnimation = AITECH_SKL.AITECH_STA 0 21
      ;Regular spice animations
      IdleAnimation = AITECH_SKL.AITECH_IDA
      IdleAnimation = AITECH_SKL.AITECH_IDB
      AnimationMode = ONCE
      WeaponLaunchBone = PRIMARY BIOGUNFX
      TransitionKey = TRANS_Stand
    End

that's cool coolfile, i'll be sure to check them out.


Me and a co-worker were talking and he thought it would be cool if I could make a simi-conversion and make him as a flame thrower unit. That's why I was asking for the templates of pe-existing units. I can model vehicles and mechs pretty good, but when it comes to infantry I am so not the person to do it. Same goes for UVs I can do mechs and vehicles but alas infantry is not my hot spot.


So if anyone knows of a place that has the UV templates for pre existing units or mabey a generic unit with UV templates I can use, please let me know.

Thanks again coolfile.

You can't attack dragon tanks because they're immune to FLAME-type damage. If you want to make dragon tanks vulnerable to fire they also become vulnerable to their own weapons.

You know, that's a good point . Thanks for pointing this out to me.

That reminds me of how I was just playing Tiberian Sun, and it was such a pain in the ass that the NOD Devil's Tongues (Flame Tanks) were damaging themselves. I couldn't mass them, so I had a pair of them...so I couldnt fulfill my dream of burning that damn pink GDI base to the ground. My Commando took care of the whole base by himself, with the help of a few attackcycles.

Sadly, that's how so many TS battles were won
