I hate this ... turret!!!![solved] - Page 2

if I understand u correctly, you want to size your tank right?
just add "Scale = N" (N=1.0 default, N>1 bigger, N<1 smaller)

a question: is taht ur tank? cause that's the same tank I use in our tower defense mod. it calls "Ratte" (rat) ?!

i think the mistake is here (i correted it)
you forgot an "End" at the AltTurret.

Code:

  Behavior = AIUpdateInterface ModuleTag_03
    Turret
      TurretTurnRate = 100 ; 180
      TurretPitchRate = 45 ; Neu
      AllowsPitch = Yes ; Neu
      RecenterTime = 3500 ; Neu
      ControlledWeaponSlots = PRIMARY
    End
    AltTurret ; Neu
      TurretTurnRate = 240 ; Neu
      TurretPitchRate = 180 ; Neu
      AllowsPitch = Yes ; Neu
      RecenterTime = 1000 ; Neu
      ControlledWeaponSlots = SECONDARY
    End

    AutoAcquireEnemiesWhenIdle = Yes
    TurretsLinked = No

  End

But unfortunately im not satisfied coz the TURRET02 .. the machinegun only works with the same direction like the mainturret but in reality the machinegun is rotateable independet from the mainturret.

@ Yayo01 is that possible? Here is my try but its crashed that why i uncomment it ;;;;;;;;

I dont know because i never tried to use the MG.....

One last question: One of my models a Bradley is atouch to big. Is it possible to make it smaller in his INI????

yes its possible

use the scale tag

Like this:

Geometry = BOX
GeometryMajorRadius = 20.0
GeometryMinorRadius = 14.0
GeometryHeight = 12.0
GeometryIsSmall = Yes
Scale = "real number"

no thats not mine i´ve downloaded that tank ca. 1 year ago at the developers site. But i forgot the site url :-(
Great model i´ve to say...

But i have to try the "scale" thing! EDIT: works fine :-)

@ yayo what a petty that the MG thing seems to be impossible :-( Maybe there is a nice modeler out there who explains the mg thing in detail...maybe

EDIT: I got it myself. It works perfect yet. Main turret attacks as seperatly as Machinegun too :-)

Thread can be closed. Thanx guys

One last question: One of my models a Bradley is atouch to big. Is it possible to make it smaller in his INI????

Code:

  Geometry               = BOX
  GeometryMajorRadius    = 20.0
  GeometryMinorRadius    = 14.0
  GeometryHeight         = 12.0     
  GeometryIsSmall        = Yes

The code from my Altturret is from my "proudofchina" model

Maybe someone know THIS:

for his ini, you would have to edit the geometry size...but to edit his appearance size, how wide tall and long it is, you gotta go to renx, look at the top toolbar, and look for a tool named scale [little box witrh arrows in it] right next to the select and move tool [arrows going N, S, E and W.]

Kulturbanause · 07-18-2005, 05:22 AM

@smokeydabear the scale thing is solved but the Nationalism sign(China) under the tank is as big as the overlord sign. but my tank is as little as an humvee. How to solve that??? I don´t know :-(

Dibelius · 07-18-2005, 07:07 AM

with the geometry settings which were alredy posted:
if it is really as big as a humvee copy it's values. if it is different, load the object into renx, make a box which surrounds the whole object and take the values of the box width, lenght and hight...

Code:

  Geometry               = BOX
  GeometryMajorRadius    = 20.0
  GeometryMinorRadius    = 14.0
  GeometryHeight         = 12.0     
  GeometryIsSmall        = Yes

Kulturbanause · 07-18-2005, 07:23 AM

I´ll try it

Dibelius · 07-18-2005, 07:57 AM

EDIT to my last post:
take only the half values of the lenght and width values (of the surrounding box in renx). otherwise it will be doubled.

SmokeyDaBear · 07-18-2005, 12:40 PM

...whoooooow...lol....a bradley the size of a nuke cannon lol...

Airstriker · 07-18-2005, 03:57 PM

At the end of the INI code, type in Scale=N.
N=1.0 normal
N=<1.0 smaller
N=>1.0 larger
