scario 0 Posted January 10, 2003 As the topic says, is it possbile to let "the camera" follow a missile (like a Maveric)? It should look very nice if you could follow the missiles way against the target, and in slowmotion see when it hits.. Mwohaha    No, but seriously, is it possible? With some modified camscript or something? Edit: Yes, I know the topic is wrong spelled..  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KTottE 0 Posted January 10, 2003 There's a script on OFPEC that does just this. I suggest checking it out in the Editors Depot If it's not what you're looking for, you can probably modifiy it to work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InqWiper 0 Posted January 10, 2003 Maybe this is a stupid way to do it but it works. This is how I did it: put the following in the player units initfield: this addeventhandler ["Fired",{this exec "test.sqs"}] put the following in a script called test.sqs: setacctime 0.2 _Y=-1 _Z=0 _Speed=0 _Bullet=nearestobject [vehicle player,"BulletSniperW"] ?Alive _Bullet:goto "Next" _Bullet=nearestobject [vehicle player,"BulletSingleW"] ?Alive _Bullet:goto "Next" _Bullet=nearestobject

dinger 1 Posted January 10, 2003 ouch. Why not replace all that stuff at the top with? _bullet = nearestobject [(_this select 0), (_this select 4)] (or is it _this select 3, I forget) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Koolkid101 0 Posted January 10, 2003 Is it possible to switch from plane view to missile view then? I don't want to crash while i look at the missile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KTottE 0 Posted January 11, 2003 You could probably work something out. Like an action that switches back to the plane (i.e just kill the missile camera) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
