Need help with turn in/out and FFV

[Reluk 81]

Im new to the modelling i made myself a workable car but i want to make turn in out position with workable hatch and when the person turn out they would be able to shoot (FFV). Is there  any tutorial or something ? So far what i searched i couldnt find anything. Any help would be welcome thx :)

Here are some config.cpp settings to use in the class Turret to enable FFV and turn-in/out for the cargo proxy.

You'll also need to understand class inheritance and animation sources.

class Turrets : Turrets {
  class MyNewTurret : CargoTurret {
    gunnerAction = "vehicle_turnout_2";
    gunnerInAction = "passenger_generic01_foldhands";
    canHideGunner = 1;                     // Enable Turn-In/Out
    outGunnerMayFire = 1;                  // FFV when turned-out
    enabledByAnimationSource = "MyHatch";  // FFV disabled when MyHatch is closed
  };
};

So if i understand this correctly by setting up this i should have a working turn in out position with "FFV" but only thing thats missing is too enable the animation of the hatch when i turn in and out ? And of course make the animation somehow.

I've just noted down the basics with which you can experiment.

 

Of course, it gets more complicated if by "turn-out" you mean that you also want the cargo proxy to move from his internal seat to an external position, rather than the simpler ffv situation of 'hatch/door/window is open, so proxy can raise gun and shoot from cargo seat'.

 

I recommend that you start simple by playing with those commands and getting a cargo proxy who can shoot, then move on to animating the hatch and linking it to the ffv, then worry about the cargo proxy animation.

So i have finnaly managed to got everything working but only problem that i still have is that the when i turn in i can still shoot and even move is there a way to lock him in place and make him not able to shoot ? I have tried       inGunnerMayFire = 0;          outGunnerMayFire = 1; but only thing that it do was that it bugged the view point when im turned in any idea on how to fix this ?

		class Turrets
		{
		 class CargoTurret_01 : Cargoturret {
				gunnerCompartments = "Compartment1";
				gunnerAction = "vehicle_passenger_stand_2";
				gunnerInAction = "passenger_MRAP_01_front";
				gunnerName = "Commander (FFV)";
				memoryPointsGetInGunner = "pos cargo";
				memoryPointsGetInGunnerDir = "pos cargo dir";
				proxyIndex = 1;
				canHideGunner = 1;
				isPersonTurret = 1;
				LODTurnedIn = 1200;
				LODTurnedOut = -1;
				animationSourceHatch = "hatchCommander";
				enabledByAnimationSource = "hatchCommander";
				memoryPointGunnerOptics = "";
				minElev = -15;
				maxElev = 50;
				initElev = 0;
				minTurn = -120;
				maxTurn = 100;
				initTurn = 0;
			};
		};

Hate to necro an old thread but has a solution for this been found?

 

My turret and turnout work fantastic.... except the turned in cargo position can still fire his weapon.

Nope still not fixed but i changed my vehicle so it doesnt use turn in/out position. So sadly cant help you with this. I gave up after countless tries with no effect and decided to redesign my vehicle a bit. Hope you find a solution. If you will feel free to post it here, it could be useful for my in future.

Im also having this problem.

Also when the gunner is turned-in the First-Person-View ("Camera") is at the soldiers feet.

 

If you or anyone else has found a solution to this problem then please post it.

 

Thanks.

+Update:

So the inGunnerMayFire as well as the outGunnerMayFire set to 0 are bugging the view.

It does not remove the ability to shoot turned in / out.

Those two parameters are also not noted on the "Arma 3 Car Config Guidelines".

 

Has someone found a solution to prevent the gunner from shooting while turned-in?
