It worked fine for me...

Still, can anyone who has already downloaded the addon host it for a while or put on more accessible server?

from OFPNAM:

Looks AWESOME! I'll DL when I get home friday!

It's a really nice looking tower that has the vietnam feeling to it (and getting the feeling right is the most difficult part)

It's not that.

I get that from some servers. My IP begins with 83. , and that may be a problem.

huh it's all greek to me

he gordy,

The DL is only 482kb large, so I could mail it to you if you like. Just PM me your adres and you'll get it. I'll be on the board for the next 6 hours so I'll wiat for your answer.

IPs with 83. were once used by crackers to spead viruses and other stuff. So webmaster had it blocked by default.

Now when the IPs are shrinking in availibility ISP started to use those. I got one.

really good tower, Txs, cant find anything wrong with it, except that it cant be destroyed (although whoever is inside it dies) with a whole lotta satchels.

[Cpt. FrostBite 0]

The destroyed model of the engine sucks, so I kind of like the fact that it can't be destroyed.

Well like it said in the read me it's got a generic cpp. I don't know how to write them. I just wrote in my stuff over the one thats in it. If someone wants to write one for it. That'd be great. I think it should have the ability to rearm (for purposes of m2) and be targeted by AI RPG. once I get a destroyed version I'll need help again witt the cpp to do the destroyed model swap.

And that Ip 83 thing makes more sense since the explaination.

[Sgt. Stryker 0]

thatd be cool if you made a destroyed version model to replace it after getting hit by expolsives of some sort.

if you wanted to be clever, add a hidden selection face covering all the sandbag areas.... then script it so when it receives a small amount of damage, a new aplha texture is ovelaid, with bullet hole textures - adds something interesting i reckon.

[SpongeBob 0]

Any way of making it "fall over" if it's hit in the legs and one or more legs are destroyed?

That would be much cool.

I was wonderin about that myself. Cause in the destroyed version I want it to be topled over with theroof and wall sand bags spilled all over the place.

Abso f'n lutely thats the ticket all right. Now once I learn how t realy make add ons ill do it.

[Sgt. Stryker 0]

thatd be cool if that can be done, this tower is what OFP is been needing for a long time, you go get some sleep now.

Have you looked at the Mapfact tower addon cpp? I know nothing of addon making but I am always a fan of "the sincerest form of flattery" if I cannot get it done all on my own! As the Mapfact site requires that you register (and is in German), here is a link to the ofp.cz page where you can find this addon:

Mapfact Towers at OFP.CZ

I hope that this helps!

sounds like a good idea. Oh yeah man, if you look at this and your not on msm get on i got more textures for ground sandbags that look damn nice for LZs and FBs.
