lexx 1391 Posted August 11, 2017 Alright, I'll bite and be the first. Laws of War DLC comes with flags attached to vehicles. These flags aren't the usual flag poles, and they are much smaller. So here's the question: How? There aren't any new flag assets of such kind that one would attach to the vehicle as far as I could see. So what's up with that? Some new fancy magic or simple trickery?

lexx 1391 Posted August 11, 2017 Fancy. I knew I've read about it already somewhere before, but wasn't sure anymore if it's related to this. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazJ 1289 Posted August 12, 2017 With vehicles... Does anyone know the list of supported vehicles? Does this attach a flag to the vehicle somehow? Similar to the Strider? (Laws of War DLC - Dev build) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HazJ 1289 Posted August 12, 2017 That's awesome! LOL at the Karts with flags haha. I tested all vehicles and UTVs across all sides. All appear to work perfectly! Good job. Only thing I noticed is, the flag doesn't render until you get really close even though I can see the vehicle just fine... Lastly... i don't suppose you know a work-around for this issue: https://s26.postimg.org/hm7yycv21/20170812160122_1.jpg https://s26.postimg.org/egnd85cft/20170812160113_1.jpg This doesn't seem to happen on VR, most likely because of wind, etc... It does on Altis though, as you can see. I tried the setWind command which fixes it pretty much except for when you turn your head. I guess that's the down side if you are the flag carrier. I previously tried to hide the flag texture when in first person but I think the issue was that, the effect was global (if I remember correctly)? Back to what I was saying though... Is there a command to set wind or something on objects? I disabled simulation which broke it in general. Was just curious anyway! (: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
da12thMonkey 1943 Posted August 12, 2017 23 hours ago, reyhard said: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/forceFlagTexture So no more OFP-era arse-ache of placing random flag poles around the map with setFlagTexture applied, and then using setFlagOwner on the vehicle driver?

R3vo 2654 Posted August 14, 2017 Awsome feature. However, I've just noticed that the flag on the HMMT truck is slightly misplaced. Maybe that's something you can tweak a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lexx 1391 Posted August 14, 2017 One more thing. The FIA vehicles have different flags, they are "sideways" / out of the window: Spoiler forceFlagTexture isn't the same. How's that one done? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I always thought the command is bugged, I only tried it on the marshall... Seems to have some issues though, randomly works from object init but always during mission runtime. Prowler had no flag 50% of the time. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seacaptainjim 67 Posted January 12, 2019 Anyone figured out a way of moving the flags? Was hoping to have a Presidential/Ambassadorial SUV limo with a front wing flag... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
