Enabling the laser draw effects for a standard weapon, HOW?

pascal314 · 03-18-2003, 05:32 PM

I was attempting to give an infantry unit a weapon that has a laser draw effect (to make a laser rifle infantry). But ingame the laser does not show. I have tried everything from giving the draw effect to the weapon (like the paladin does), to attaching the laser object to the unit's muzzle (like the missile defender does), but the first does not show ingame and the second crashed the game. Anyone who knows how to enable this, please tell me how.

The laser seems to work on the paladin tank, but when I use it on infantry it doesn't show, I myself was working on an infantry that was effective vs both infantry and tanks.

yes-i already am trying to achieve this effect on infantry (Infantry fireing Laser) but couldnt succeed.I think it has to do something with a Module in the Paladin.

I know what you mean, there is an auto fire module, but it wont look right to give it to infantry because it isn't player controlled.

I made a fairly simple laser (starwars laser) using Tracers.. all I would want on it would be to have it a bit brighter.. like it has a Lenz flare or something
That might be possible with Rayeffect in the FX ini file.. but I'm not sure on that one..

Tracers?
