I'll be releasing it soon, sometime before or after the 30th.

The King Cobra has been delayed to make room for this "pack" (it will include the Hunter when i get it done).

[peanuckle_00 0]

Oooooooh. lol. Can't wait. I'm highly anticipating this one. So how many packs of these gears do you plan to release? I'm going to host and make missions for these badboys. Also what will the cockpit look like from the inside? It's very important that the cockpit view is nice. I like the identification number and the camo is more subtle this time. Will you make the mono eye blink? You gotta figure out how to make it shine in the night too! lol. I'm giddy about this

[franze 196]

The cockpit view isn't fully completed quite yet, as I'm trying to decide how to do it. By default, the Pilot's head is inside the gears "head", and the other cockpit areas are not very visible.

Theres also a dust problem, and I need to figure out how to enable the armor bar, speed bar, etc. so it can be used easier.

[peanuckle_00 0]

You could put the pilots head in the chest compartment and give it the same cockpit as the mammoth. That would give it lots of view. Or you could give it the view as seen from an M113. But since you have the view in the head can you make it kind of like a bubble lense effect? Bubble lens effect would be dope! Otherwise I'd make the view just like normal but coming from the head camera. The same view you'd get as if you were a soldier with your head up in the air basically. But for all purposes if you don't know ask. Make your own thread. Ask someone who's made a tank or whatever how to make your own icon and how to make your fuel, speedometer, and armor indicator.

[franze 196]

The way I've got it designed now is that the V key gives you the omnicamera view. But it does sound like it would work well to just "sit" the pilot into the view. I'll experiment and see what I can do; and you said something about beta testing on the other thread...?

[peanuckle_00 0]

I've beta tested the jager and found that its succeptible to falling over. Perhaps you should make it squat.

[franze 196]

Making it squat won't help; its something to do with the landcontact LODs.

Listen if anyone's reading this i only have a few days to figure out why this code isn't enabling a sound for the turret to the mecha.  All names are in concordance with file names.

class Turret: TurretBase

{

gunAxis = "OsaHlavne";

turretAxis = "OsaVeze";

soundServo[]={"\huntergr\gearup.wav",0.18,1};

gunBeg = "usti hlavne";

gunEnd = "konec hlavne";

minElev=-40; maxElev=+40;

minTurn=-90; maxTurn=90;

body = "OtocVez";

gun = "OtocHlaven";

};

We may have it. Soundservo line comes from a previous code where servo was an actual name of a sound file. so we'll try replacing servo with gearup

People. You can expect the first gear pack some time by the 25th or earlier.

As an old southern gear player on the old M-Player scene, I have to comment by saying...please do this thing justice and fix the textures.

like the above cammo style, its not as busy.

The thing is, I guess you are basing this on the RPG version and not the FPS comp game? It seems that as you are giving the southern gears...northern colors(based on the comp version)

We can't get the turret noise to play when the thing turns. If you can help us please do. Here's the complete config file.

So franze now that the animation program is out are you going to make an animation for your gears?

[peanuckle_00 0]

I've made major progress in helping franze make an animation for his gear. I have come to a point where i must rename the parts of the gear to that of a soldiers body so that the animations will happen. I will post a screenshot soon. This brings us one step closeer to animating our own mechas amongst the sci fi crowd. What you do is get your model in p3d format. you open it and on the left side of the animator choose show all polygons. Then you'll want to go to file load anim and choose from the daten folder the bezbeh.rtm file. This will be where you start renaming your parts to that of the components of the file you just opened. Once you do you can give it the animations of a soldier. If any of you can help me get further please post here. I will try my best to open a soldier model and see whats up.

Open TOW's Marine Pack, their character models are openable, so you could take a look at that.

[peanuckle_00 0]

Where will i find TOW's marine pack at? I'll check all the sites.
