EO 11277 Posted September 30, 2019 Adds destruction effects to various flammable related Eden objects. Search for "EO Exploding Objects" in the Asset Browser. Object destruction is roughly based on three factors: Size of object, distance from object, calibre of weapon fired. Steam Workshop. 13 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LSValmont 789 Posted October 1, 2019 This is a great addition to your many immersion creating mods. Mission makers have been asking for these exploding objects for ages now and it shows just how great the Arma 3 community is in that it is the community content creators who answer the call most of the time. Specially considering Arma 3 is on its End of Life and content lock other than third party content. PS: Can't wait for that new secret project you have for all of us! It will bring so much added immersion! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, only editor placed objects....to be honest when I first started on this I was hoping the effects would carry over to objects baked into the map but no dice. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EO 11277 Posted October 3, 2019 Yeah man, tried and failed many times over the past few days.....I've had a bit more of an insight about this from HorribleGoat, some terrain objects are set as non-destructible and some don't have house simulation, therefore it's just possible the objects covered in this mod have neither which is why "terrain baked" objects don't inherit the config change. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GEORGE FLOROS GR 4207 Posted October 3, 2019 I think that you could hide the object on the explosion , as said i haven't see how you have create this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GEORGE FLOROS GR 4207 Posted October 3, 2019 I was checking the terrain to find items like that but i tried in Stratis and Malden and there is nothing !

Very nice George, indeed much more is possible with clever scripting but I'll stick with the humble config tweak. Spoiler class DestructionEffects { class HouseDestr { intensity=1; interval=1; lifeTime=0.1; position=""; simulation="destroy"; type="DelayedDestructionAmmoBox"; }; }; 😉 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anfo 118 Posted October 5, 2019 Is a script possible as well, or does this have to be clientside? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EO 11277 Posted October 5, 2019 @anfo, The mod is a simple config tweak, i'm not sure it can be converted into a script, even if it could scripts aren't my strong point. You could always try using George's exploding objects script a few posts above this one, it offers far more options than this. Regarding the client-side thing, again I'm not really sure as I play mostly SP, with that being said I'm guessing since it changes the configuration of some objects, if they were used in a MP scenario both client and server would need the mod loaded for maximum enjoyment, I included a server key to cover this. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heero Yuy 5 Posted January 16, 2020 I agree, but I do not agree with the size of the explosions, and should only explode with the use of tracer or incendiary ammunition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
