Config.cpp questions. (HELP! please).

[bullseyeonline 2]

Greetings BI community members.

 

For the past two days i been trying to make my uniforms mod for my future co op missions. however i'm in the process of learning so.

I manage to create a config.cpp file that works but that's only for one uniform. the uniform appears and everything but my problem is which piece of code do i need to copy and paste so i can add another uniform and which lines of that code do i need to change in order to make a new uniform. do i need to create a new class? could you make notes in my config.cpp and explain to me things please?

this is my config.cpp:

 

class CfgPatches
{
    class TAG_myretextures  // has to be the same name as your folder!
    {
        units[] = {}; //making it ZEUS compatible
        weapons[] = {};
        requiredVersion = 0.1;
        requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Characters_F_BLUFOR"};
    };
};
 
class CfgVehicles
{
    class B_Soldier_base_F;
    class NBS_Infantry_Light: B_Soldier_base_F
    {
        _generalMacro = "B_Soldier_F"; //unsure what this does
        scope = 2;
        displayName = "Black Sheep - Light Infantry";
        nakedUniform = "U_BasicBody"; //class for "naked" body
        uniformClass = "NBS_ACU_Multicam"; //the uniform item
        hiddenSelections[] = {"Camo"};
        hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"\NBS_Uniforms\Data\VSM_ARD_multicam_1.paa"};
        model = "\A3\characters_f\BLUFOR\b_soldier_01";
 
        linkedItems[] = {"ItemMap", "ItemCompass", "ItemWatch", "ItemRadio"};
        respawnLinkedItems[] = {"ItemMap", "ItemCompass", "ItemWatch", "ItemRadio"};
    };
};
 
class cfgWeapons
{
    class Uniform_Base;
    class UniformItem;
 
    class NBS_ACU_Multicam : Uniform_Base
    {
        author = "BullsEyE|WORKS";
        scope = 2;
        displayName = "Battledress ACU MultiCam (Long Sleeve)";
        picture = "\NBS_Uniforms\UI\uniforms\Battledress_Long_Sleeve_MultiCam.paa";
        model = "\A3\characters_f_beta\indep\ia_soldier_01";
        hiddenSelections[] = {"Camo"};
        hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"\NBS_Uniforms\Data\VSM_ARD_multicam_1.paa"};
        class ItemInfo : UniformItem
        {
            uniformModel = "-";
            uniformClass = "NBS_Infantry_Light"; //would be same as our made soldier class
            containerClass = "Supply40"; //how much it can carry
            mass = 30; //how much it weights
        };
    };
};

Hello

 

Im not into uniforms, but it should work when you copy your “class NBS_ACU_Multicam : Uniform_Base“ and overwork it for the new uniform.

Here you go Bullseye, this is my one that I use for multiple uniforms.. just edit it to suit.

Thank you i got it working. now i would like to know how to let my custom uniform accept insignias, i have the insignia already but it only works in vanilla uniforms not in my custom one. any inputs?

[road runner 4344]

If it's a custom model, it has to have an "Insignia" selection on it, and also written into the model.cfg as well.

all i did is add the "Insignia" to the config and it worked. thank you.
