why the drum will rotate when you will fire.... like vucan...

but vulcan rotates barels maybe i need to call drum the same name in memory lod like vulcans barels....

osti hlavne or something????

i have searched for this but i dont find nothing simlar to use

Ok...hope I don't get killed for replying to this mabye-too-old-topic, but its possible. There was a M240 (dosen't go by that name, but its the gun that looks like it) that when you shot, its bullets rotated, though VERY SLOWLY...

As for your Vulcan barrel theory:

1) osa (corrected from "osti") hlavne is used for turret rotation.

2) that rotation only works for vehicles and air classes.

You could set this up to rotate EXACTLY like the vulcan.

you simply have to add 2 extra points in the memory lod fot it to rotate around, and add the code to rotate the drum. Grab the commented config from BIS to see how this is done.

Ok, look at this:

<ul>

[*]Give the ammo-drum a selection called "drum" in all the resolution and geometry LODs.

[*]Add two vertices in the memory LOD like the yellow stars on the picture and give one of them the selection name called "osa_drum_2", and call the other osa_drum_1.

[*]Add this to the CfgWeapon part in the config.cpp

i dunno why but this thing only works when i do it on vehicles but not on a weapon. look:

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

class GMI_M60: M60

{

scopeWeapon = public;

scopeMagazine = private;

picture="\GMI_hv_M60\gunphoto.paa";

weaponType="1 + 16";

ammo="GMI_M60mag";

model="\GMI_hv_M60\GMI_M60";

displayName="GMI hv. M60";

muzzles[]={"GMI_M60muzzle"};

class GMI_M60muzzle : GMI_M60mag

{

drySound[]={"weapons\M16dry",db-40,1};

modelOptics="optika_M60_MG";

optics = true;

magazines[]={"GMI_M60mag"};

};

class ReloadAnimations

{

class GunReload

{

weapon="GMI_M60";

angle0=0

angle1="-0.439";

multiplier=500

type="rotation";

animPeriod=0.2

selection="Bullets";

begin="osa_bulletN1";

end="osa_bulletN2";

};

};

};

};

what did i do wrong?

Sorry. Never tried it on weapons. I was just guessing that it would be the same as on vehicles.
