georgeashby123 1 Posted September 9, 2016 I have just modelled and textured a basic door, just to test making a arma 3 door, yet i have no clue how to get it to function as a door. I have no config.cpp setup currently and just have the model in oxygen saved as a .p3d. I searched the internet but found absolutely nothing. Can anyone help?

UK_Apollo 476 Posted September 9, 2016 P3D Make the door a named selection in the visual LOD. Add two points to act as a rotation or translation axis in the memory LOD. CONFIG.CPP Create an AnimationSource {} class to control the door Create a couple of UserAction {} classes to give your player mouse options for Open and Close MODEL.CFG Add the door to the skeletonBones[] definition in CfgSkeleton Create a sub-class of class Animations in CfgModels, giving details of the animation required and referencing the AnimationSource Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmybulmer 21 Posted September 10, 2016 Follow this tutorial, it will show you most of what you need to know, just be aware he has a non animated mesh conected (the bottom of the box) but yours will work just fine so long as when you do vertex groups you assign the whole door (shown in tutorial) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
