-SZ-Vladimir 0 Posted April 17, 2003 I release this UAV ! First some screens : ----------------------------- Second, any comments : Model and texture by frontier All Scripts by uiox Work good in MP MP is, I think, the better use for this add-on. For use this add-on, you musst have an description.ext file with this commande line : </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">#include <DragonWarrior\resource.cpp><span id='postcolor'> If you haven't that, you have an error message and UAV don't work. You can find a demo mission in .zip file with this description.ext file. ----------------------------- Third, download link Dragon Warrior UAV download ----------------------------- If you find some bug, post here or e-mail me, next version is version 1.0, that's last beta. That's all for moment. Good Game Vladimir Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lee_h._oswald 0 Posted April 17, 2003 Nice work and whats important, easy to use! Thx! But one thing. How to land it? It only comes down to 2meters. MfG Lee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted April 17, 2003 Great suff, but again, no land option. And isn't the acceleration a little much? Would be nice to be able to use reveal target on what you see in the monitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-SZ-Vladimir 0 Posted April 17, 2003 Thanks for this comments. Maybe add a "log off" option for give to someone other UAV Vladimir Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pang 0 Posted April 17, 2003 wow this is one cool addon haven´t had the time to test in mp, so: can everyone controll the UAV or just the person who started it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrukas 0 Posted April 17, 2003 looks great... now, i wont have to die in my suicide attacks against infantry divisions and armor ! my greatest thanks(thanks from my co-pilots too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeyCat 131 Posted April 17, 2003 Thanks! Another great addon and I'm looking forward to the final version. Planned to use Vektorbosons (SP?) satelite script in my next co-op but will use this instead /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoolCarlos2002 2 Posted April 17, 2003 Very nice UAV, pretty fun to spy enemies with it great job Vlad  Edit: Could karrilion take note and add it to RTS so we can search enemy base with this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suchey 0 Posted April 17, 2003 WOW! Now this is one kick ass addon! NICE WORK! 2 things I would love to see in the future of this addon... 1) the controlling soldier using some sort of control pannel field computer 2) a 2nd version which is either slightly different in model or in skin to be used by the opposing force for multiplay so as to be able to shoot down the "bad guys" drone with small arms fire! This is one of those rare addons that changes the way in which ground combat will be fought in OFP! NICE WORK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeyCat 131 Posted April 18, 2003 Another "wish" after testing this great addon is enemy to AI engage the UAV. That way you would have to be more carefull where you fly... Thanks again Vladimir!!! Looking forward to next/final version. /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted April 18, 2003 Allright, I think the number displayed for the zoom amount should be a zoom factor not slider amount. So 2x 4x etc, not 0.1234. Also, if you say Up Down etc. Don't say Caméra in the same line, either English or not. Please get rid of the ms and us display, there is no point for it and it wastes cpu time. That's all I can find at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeyCat 131 Posted April 18, 2003 Another thing I just remembered... It would be great to have the option to invert the slider/text colors to white. Else it will be hard to control it in dusk/dawn/night. /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeyCat 131 Posted April 18, 2003 LOL @ bn880 If it isn't possible to make text color toggle please make it white instead of black since that works at both day an night. /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted April 18, 2003 Allright, you can get Night Vision simply by turning on your NV on the soldier. It's not bad. THe color of the controls is terrible at night like KeyCat says. Also, how about another slider or text field which acts as a compass? You can get the heading of the sucker and show it on the dialog so we know where it's pointing. Hope you like the ideas. And the maximum height of 300m? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You already get the heading in degrees (and map coordinates) above the "drift" slider. Some more ideas I'm tossing out.... - What about some random RF interferance noise that dissrupt the view for a few seconds (just like Vecktorbosons nice satellite script)? - AI infantry should engage it with small arms fire (but it shouldn't show up on emeny helicopter/BMP/tanks radar)? - IMO this one shouldn't be to easy to fly/operate so maybe some random drift/descent to simulate wind gusts (important that this isn't overdone)? - Limited operation time and maybe range? Love this addon and any improvement will be great! /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted April 18, 2003 I noticed just the coords, alright that's good. I didn't see the heading cuz it was so DARK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bullz_eye_on_my_back 0 Posted April 18, 2003 Very cool Addon on!!! I love it....One thing though.... on the camera rotation a "reset" button would be nice too...so then you can just watch the direction you are heading.... I need to work on my UAV too..and get it out..... i still have quite a bit of scripting left.....can't wait to see the final version of this!!! good job!!!! Bullz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uiox 0 Posted April 18, 2003 Cool a lot of good ideas: Change the color of slider : ok Night vision : ok if i can do it Reset button for camera rotation : ok Limited opération, actually 1 hour, will change the time (it's mission start), in uav start time. Will do test with a direction slider, it can be useful direction + drift... Second texture for opposite camp: will ask to Vlad Random effects, I'm working on wind effects, but for the moment I can't say if there is wind in OFP, but there is air effect relates to the wheigt and size, but I'm not physician, and it's hard for me, maybe something like that. A version with a laserdesignator for the arty scripts for example. The DragonWarrior is not armed, but with the scripts, we can do uav armed. Thx again for ideas, and thx for like it.

hugo2020 0 Posted April 18, 2003 awesome! my suggestions: -compass -possibility to look at map -zoom in and out would be cool with mouse wheel, what about the controll like the seagull? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted April 18, 2003 He's got the compass there basically, left of the coordinates. Although it does specify N, NE, S etc. it's a heading I should say. Uiox, try to remove the milliseconds and microseconds display, it's really overdoing it and uses much CPU time to update the field so often. As for NV, it can be done by managing the NVGoggles on the viewing soldier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-SZ-Vladimir 0 Posted April 18, 2003 Wouah ! Thanks for all this answers ! So... for script remarks, I speak with uiox. For an Russian version, Scorpio have a modele of a similar UAV for russian side... I ask him for that. For AI problem, I try to correct that. Compass is already in interface Vladimir Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
