Fireworks

[Pappy Boyington 0]

someone posted in the 3wo thread about this "mod" called black burned steel

i headed over there to see what they had

and i found. .. this!

the downside is the addon and site are in german

the good news is it only takes about 3 brain cells to figure out how to use it  

IE:  

Feuerwerk (Vulkan) = Volcano

Feuerwerk (Rakete) = Rocket

Download Here

this is super fun and super easy to use. even thou the command is in german. . .when u walk up next to it, and theres only 1 option, its obvious that you choose that

burning fuses, custom sounds, random colors, tons of fun

Readme: translated into english

OPERATION LOOKED BURNED STEEL

Feuerwerkaddon

Would command:

[objekt] exec "\bbs_feuerwerk\bat\batterie.sqs" <-- the battery starts immediately

[objekt] exec "\bbs_feuerwerk\font\fontaine.sqs"  <-- the Fontäne starts immediately

[objekt] exec "\bbs_feuerwerk\vul\vulkan.sqs"   <-- starts the volcano immediately

[objekt] exec "\bbs_feuerwerk\rak\rocketstart.sqs"  <-- starts the rocket (with burning ignition cord)

[objekt] exec "\bbs_feuerwerk\bat\luntebatterie.sqs"  <-- starts the battery (with burning ignition cord)

[objekt] exec "\bbs_feuerwerk\font\luntefontaine.sqs" <-- starts the Fontäne (with burning ignition cord)

[objekt] exec "\bbs_feuerwerk\vul\luntevulkan.sqs"<-- starts the volcano (with burning ignition cord)

objekt = here the name of the Addons must there, that should start

PS: i checked and this wasnt posted yet

still dont get how to make them start without lighing them manualy

[theavonlady 2]

Necessary peripherals.

[jankyballs 0]

how does that help.............

[theavonlady 2]

how does that help.............

It won't help you. It was simply a suggested addon in a similar category.

still dont get how to make them start without lighing them manualy

no problem i uploaded a mission with a special firework show for you

i wrote up the script and timing myself

it may get a lil laggy but dont worry about it. . its just for show  

Download Here

this script will shoot off 20 fireworks(rockets) and 4 fountians. . .you may need to walk down toward the west a bit after the first 2 fountians go off so u can see the other ones (due to lods)

enjoy

edit: avonlady how does a topic with a broken link to what apperes (from the replies) to be a story about cancer causing food help answer his question about how to launch fireworks. . ..or link to "another addon" ?

It wasn't meant to answer his question. I was referencing another addon that might go well with fireworks. Nothing more.

I wasn't aware that the link in the other thread was broken.

I AM INNOCENT!!!

Fun addon

Why wasn't this released in 30th desember 1999

[Guest [B.B.S.] T_D]

This is my first post here in this forum and the first things i want to say:

-I am german so my english isnt very good, sry for that

Lets come to the Addon. I am very suprised that you like it so much and we think about to translate it into english. How would you find that?

@Fragster

This problem occured when you dont have version 1.96. I dont know but it does. So you have just to patch you version to 1.96

If you have other questions, ideas or you have found bugs please post it here, so we can try to solve the problem.

[Johann "onn" Bitsoenn 0]

It's all very nice and great addon :]

But.. the rocket's speed (both in rockets and battery) is far to slow, and they should fly much higher...

[Pappy Boyington 0]

the only problem i have with it

is in MP it operates clientside only

so if my buddy and i are in MP and i set off a firework. . .he doesnt see anything. . .if he launchs one i dont see anything

other then that it works fine

[Guest [B.B.S.] T_D]

I dont have tested it in Mp but you are right. The drop command, which creates the firework is lokal and have to run on all Computers. But i didnt thought about that. Maybe i will update the pack, so you can use it in Mp and maybe i will translate it

Damn this is a very terrible english. I hate myself therefore.

ive seen worse my freind

your doin just fine. we can understand what your trying to say

and an english version of the addon would be nice but if its too much trouble then dont worry about it. like i said it doesnt take much smarts to figure out the translated version

[Guest [B.B.S.] T_D]

Lets see.

We have planed great things.... muhahhaha
