Balschoiw 0 Posted October 24, 2002 Can I use the drop command with external 3D resource files ? Example: Is it possible to design a 3D object ( bomblet for carpet bombing ) and use it as a resource file for the drop source ? Second question: Are we able to use 2D sources light plane images with drop command ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Drop command (using SpaceObject) seems to put a .p3d into the game without collsion detection, and at a random attitude. What you can do is to use the drop command as an empty positional tag and setPos your object to this location. I wrote a tip on OFPEC on how to do this. Have a search for "drop" there. It'll be on the Hints & Tips board. Prospero Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
