Making A Fob Template?

[RobMac 10]

Hi guys,

I am about to create a series of missions featuring the Royal Army Corps of Sahrani from the PRACS mod.

So, i was wondering how i would make a template for a fob? Do i use the 3d editor? Got any tips?

Thanks

3d Editor is nice for placing objects, but if you have a fast computer and some patience you can make some nice stuff in the 2d Editor. I'm not real familiar with the 3d editor, it seemed clunky, and I quickly dropped it. one option, this one is probably something like what you would want, but this only does map placed objects, not editor.

get use to using:

this setPos [getPos this select 0, getPos this select 1, 15];

in objects init, as you will most likely be putting objects ontop of objects, the above line would place an objects 15 meters up, or so it seems.

sometimes you will have to sit there for a good while to get your ramps lined up just right. One last tip, download some of the templates already out there and look how they built theirs.

Hi Robmac,

As Skelt had said

see the templates on this page:

There are some great templates on that page.

I also once made a FOB template which was a real pain (which is the reason it isn't finished yet). If you like it you're free to use in whatever way you can imagine. :)
