npmproductions13 14 Posted November 25, 2016 First off my issue is iv'e tried adding a ramp to one of my new upcoming VTOL aircraft. My problem is i cant seem to get a prompt in game to raise / lower the ramp. I have configured my models "Memory" Lod to have an axis and also have a selection of the door linked to the axis and have made adjustments to the model.cfg and config.cpp It compiles fine but again no prompt in game. Another thing i want to know is would my issue stem from not having a area for the player to interact like how you define the driver seat ??

npmproductions13 14 Posted November 26, 2016 Ok i still need help making a door for my heli. I think my issue lies within the following section of code. Can someone explain what each of the following lines of code do as i used a bohemia template and am finding it hard to understand what everything is/does. For example what does this following line of code mean ? >>>> this animationPhase ""Rear_Door"" <<<< and what does it do and what is Rear_Door in reference to i assumed it was the the above class name in AnimationSources but clearly i am wrong. I understand i might be over complicating this and making it hard to understand but its the only way i can explain it. Config.cpp class AnimationSources: AnimationSources{ class Rear_Door /// the class name is later used in model.cfg { source = "user"; /// door source means it is used by animateDoor script command animPeriod = 1; /// how long does it take to change value from 0 to 1 (or vice versa) initPhase = 0; /// what value does it have while creating the vehicle }; }; class UserActions { class Rear_Door_Open { userActionID = 60; /// ID for some scripts displayName = "Open door"; /// what is displayed in action menu position = "actions"; /// start of radius where action is available condition = "this animationPhase ""Rear_Door"" < 0.5 AND Alive(this) AND (player in crew this)"; /// only openable from inside and when closed statement = "this animateDoor ['Rear_Door', 0]"; /// sets animation source Doors to 1 via interpolation priority = 1.5; /// higher priority means higher in the Action menu radius = 1.5; /// how far from position is the action available showWindow = 0; /// 0 means that it is not a default action when entering the vehicle onlyForPlayer = 1; /// AI doesn't use this one shortcut = ""; /// there's no shortcut for this action }; class Rear_Door_Close { userActionID = 61; /// ID for some scripts displayName = "Close door"; /// what is displayed in action menu position = "actions"; /// start of radius where action is available condition = "this animationPhase ""Rear_Door"" > 0.5 AND Alive(this) AND (player in crew this)"; /// only openable from inside and when closed statement = "this animateDoor ['Rear_Door', 1]"; /// sets animation source Doors to 1 via interpolation priority = 1.5; /// higher priority means higher in the Action menu radius = 1.5; /// how far from position is the action available showWindow = 0; /// 0 means that it is not a default action when entering the vehicle onlyForPlayer = 1; /// AI doesn't use this one shortcut = ""; /// there's no shortcut for this action }; }; This is the following link between the door from the model.cfg to the config.cpp Model.cfg class Animations { class Rear_Door // ORI door1 { type="translation"; axis="doorX_axis"; animPeriod=1; source="user"; selection="door1"; offset0=0; offset1=1.00; minValue=0; maxValue=0.05; }; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scars09 9 Posted November 27, 2016 door1 is as far i can tell the named selection in the model of your ramp. so we go with door1 in model.cfg door1 needs to be in the skeleton as bone of the mainmodel, and door1 needs to be in sections. //model.cfg class Animations { class door1 // ORI door1 { type="translation"; // are u sure? ramp somehow sounds like rotation, but it really depends on your model axis="door1_axis"; //rename, just for consistency animPeriod=1; source="door1"; //here needs to be the animationsource defined in cfgVehicles, how we call it? door1 selection="door1"; offset0=0; //movement along axis, look at model, try to estimate how much it would move in real live, use that as offset 1. offset1=1.00; minValue=0; // usually min and maxvalue are 0 and 1, thats the spectrum, ´0=no animation, 1= completly animated maxValue=1; }; class AnimationSources: AnimationSources { class door1 /// this is in model.cfg source=door1; { source = "user"; /// user as source in here, but in model.cfg source = door1 (what we define just now) animPeriod = 1; /// how long does it take to change value from 0 to 1 (or vice versa) initPhase = 0; /// what value does it have while creating the vehicle }; }; class UserActions { class door1_open { userActionID = 60; /// ID for some scripts displayName = "Open door"; /// what is displayed in action menu position = "actions"; /// is there a memory point or selection in model with that name? there should be :) condition = "this animationPhase ""door1"" < 0.5 AND Alive(this) AND (player in crew this)"; /// statement = "this animate ['door1', 1]"; /// the 1 here = maxvalue in model.cfg, = fully animated (door open) // please also note that i switched from animatedoor to just animate, think thats enough priority = 1.5; /// higher priority means higher in the Action menu radius = 1.5; /// how far from position is the action available showWindow = 0; /// 0 means that it is not a default action when entering the vehicle onlyForPlayer = 1; /// AI doesn't use this one shortcut = ""; /// there's no shortcut for this action }; class door1_close { userActionID = 61; /// ID for some scripts displayName = "Close door"; /// what is displayed in action menu position = "actions"; /// start of radius where action is available condition = "this animationPhase ""door1"" > 0.5 AND Alive(this) AND (player in crew this)"; /// only openable from inside and when closed statement = "this animate ['door1', 0]"; /// sets animation source Doors to 1 via interpolation priority = 1.5; /// higher priority means higher in the Action menu radius = 1.5; /// how far from position is the action available showWindow = 0; /// 0 means that it is not a default action when entering the vehicle onlyForPlayer = 1; /// AI doesn't use this one shortcut = ""; /// there's no shortcut for this action }; }; try this, no guarantees 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
npmproductions13 14 Posted November 27, 2016 I fixed it very late last night and it works fine now after 2 days tinkering. I really appreciate the time to respond to me Scars thanks for your help. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
npmproductions13 14 Posted November 27, 2016 Scars one more thing thats a tiny bit off topic and a different issue. But do you know how to "Attach" parts to animate together as im working on a multiple part landing gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scars09 9 Posted November 27, 2016 https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Model_Config parts are called bones, defined in cfgskeletons, please check the link. but thats the spirit, we got one thing animated, lets split it up and see if we can animate it then :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
npmproductions13 14 Posted November 28, 2016 Right that's the landing gear sorted :D Now another thing im having a problem with is the cargo proxies when im in the pilot seat and go into third person i cant see the guys in chairs, same when i get out of the aircraft and look in the door/hatch i cant see them. But when i get in as a passenger (in the back of the aircraft) i can see them all sitting there which clearly tells me its related to a proxy issue what do you think ? I must be missing something simple. --=EDIT=-- I fixed it never mind. It was blender exporting the proxies incorrectly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
