Scud, skin help!

[ScripTingTool 1]

Hello, I am new weapon in the game (not too long). The only military game that surprised me! :)

Well I have a question, I see a "Scud launcher nuclear bomb" see photo below:

If you watch (obviously) you'll see that this has no skin (so to speak)

Now look at this picture:

This "Scud" already has a very beautiful Skin. And this is my question, where do I find this the Skin "Scud"?

The first one is from an ArmA1 mod ported to ArmA2. The second one is the 9P117 SCUD-B vehicle from OA.

The first SCUD Launcher is a ported mod from Arma 1, whereas the second one you linked with the camo painting is Arma 2:Operation Arrowhead vanilla content. :confused:

That quick answers! :)

I honestly NEVER noticed the 9P117 SCUD-B in the game. I hope that soon the "Scud" also has this skin.

More still, thank you :)

One question: how do I mark the location where it should launch the missile?

The scud launcher doesn't actually shoot anything. When you "fire" it via scripting, it'll do an animation of a rocket flying straight up, but that's all it does. There's no actual missile like there is with any other vehicle weapon.

So what you'd do is fire it, then create an explosion where you wanted it to have landed. It's generally used to "destroy before it fires" or "oops, it fired you lose" type scenarios instead of "lets attack that UAZ with scuds".
