VayHalen 0 Posted October 9, 2002 For instance, you destroy a tank and you only see a black smoke for a seconds. It's possible put a fire over the tank when this unit is destroyed? I got the catfires addons. Can they be used to achieve this effect? Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RED 0 Posted October 9, 2002 Search the forum for 'drop fire' you should find what you are looking for. RED Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VayHalen 0 Posted October 9, 2002 Thanks Red I made a search but I can't find it. I even don't know if this effect can be made in the 1.46 version I have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RED 0 Posted October 9, 2002 No you can't use the drop command in version 1.46, I don't think there is any way you can do this without resistance. RED Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VayHalen 0 Posted October 9, 2002 Ok Red. I'll get Resistance soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruskiesrule 0 Posted October 9, 2002 whats the drop command actualy do? I have to wait for my new PC before i can get resistance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balschoiw 0 Posted October 9, 2002 the drop command basically generates a particle source that can be freely customized in many ways. For example you can build waterfalls, fires, I also have seen a plane that flies over a town and drops flyers. red particles of course but it looked very well  to your problem: It is certainly possible to generate fires with 1.46 . There are addons that simulate fires and smoke. There was a good looking Nuke produced with that: check out the campaign trailer at our homepage. Then you´ll get the little addons and see a live example Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col Saint 0 Posted October 13, 2002 I made a script for burning vehicles. If you destray a tank it starts burning. I am just trying to do the same for the planes, after damage, they start burning. I thought because of the Fire, the game will lag but nope it doesn´t. It seems thet the sparks, smoke and fire doesn´t effect the Gameplay, as a smokeshell does. I just have trouble with the Damage file, if u stand to close near a burning Object u get hurt if the fire is out its save to be around destroyed Object. Oh, while I am at it is there a way you take controle of a Soldier played in MP for few seconds? Not with Cutscene, I mean while playing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GAMEER_77 0 Posted October 13, 2002 Bn880 done the same thing with TWMN, if you destroyed something like a tank then it would begin to flame! PEACE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col Saint 0 Posted October 14, 2002 yes i will, but when finished. didn´t check on 1.46 though, should do it but i think the feature of the fire is only for resistance but i try it out for you. Because I think OFP-CWC/RH is burning out, the future is Resistance.... or independence lost I post the fire.sqs in here and will make a map to dl in my Website.

VayHalen 0 Posted October 14, 2002 Hey Col Saint thanks for all. BTW very nice draws in your website. And very nice soldiers too. People check it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col Saint 0 Posted October 14, 2002 OK, the fire works only on Resistance because the new commands not exist in the old OFP versions. Well could be that there are simular commands but I could not find out yet. So for my Script you need "Resistance". But I have to finish a little script so you have it complete. But I guess I need the help in here, for I couldn´t get it to work. Ty VayHalen, but not ready yet, still lots of work to be done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
