Custom Rotor Blur tex

[FischKopp 0]

I´m doing a ch53 and i made a new rotor blur tex ... but although the CfgModels is right, the Blur tex is still visible if i have the engines off. If i uise bis ones i have no probs. I think I have to define the blur tex ... but how?

You don't need to mark the texture file as a 'blur-file' -

sounds like the model definitions are off:

Velka vrtule - _All_ the rotor parts (basically, everything that

spins round)

Velka vrtule staticka - The parts that are 'hidden' when the

heli is running.

Velka vrtule blur - The 'simple' blur polygons to be used.

(Same for Mala vrtule).

Make sure that the model is derived from Helicopter in CfgModels.

thx footmunch but like i said itá all right if i replace my with a BIS ones ... the selections are right ... I looked up the BAS chopper and found this

Quote[/b] ]

rotorBig="vrtule_uh_v";

rotorBigBlend="vrtule_uh_v_bl";

rotorSmall="vrtule_uh_m";

rotorSmallBlend="vrtule_uh_m_bl";

They also used a custom one but ... I tried this one in config

rotorBig="vrt_ch53_bl";

rotorBigBlend="vrt_ch53_bl";

rotorSmall="vrt_ch53_sbl";

rotorSmallBlend="vrt_ch53_sbl";

but nothins seems to work ... any solutions

I haven't had to do this for any custom rotor (or propeller)

blurs I've used.

Is the new texture PAC or PAA? Try the other format?

Can you provide us with that part of the CPP code, I think you may have missed something, possibly a path to the textures.

You could try:

rotorBig="SEF_CH53\vrt_ch53_bl";

rotorBigBlend="SEF_CH53\vrt_ch53_bl";

rotorSmall="SEF_CH53\vrt_ch53_sbl";

rotorSmallBlend="SEF_CH53\vrt_ch53_sbl";

(if that's where the textures are).

Note _no_ leading "\" - that's the same syntax as the

CfgTextureToMaterial section. If that doesn't work, try it

_with_ a leading "\" -  

Also, try a CfgModels like this:

class CfgModels

{

      class Helicopter{};

      class CH53E_Green: Helicopter{};

};

@Footmunch ... it do not solve the Prob

[Scud 0]

Quote[/b] ]rotorBig="vrt_ch53_bl";

rotorBigBlend="vrt_ch53_bl";

rotorSmall="vrt_ch53_sbl";

rotorSmallBlend="vrt_ch53_sbl";

remove this from cpp

@scud ... this i added later cos i thought it would help ...

Found the Prob ... it was cos of a empty place after the "blur"

Can I ask why your put;

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class SEF_CH53Ebase: UH60MG

{

scope=0;

displayName="CH-53E";

accuracy=0.30;

side=1;

};

Into your CfgModels followed by;

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class SEF_ch53eGreen: UH60MG

It'd be better practice to everything into;

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

class SEF_CH53Ebase: UH60MG

{

scope=0;

displayName="CH-53E";

accuracy=0.30;

side=1;

side=TWest;

vehicleclass="USMC: Air";

displayName="CH53E Super Stallion (Green)";

model="\SEF_CH53\CH53E_Green.p3d";

nameSound="chopper";

crew="SoldierWPilot";

maxSpeed=280;

armor=100;

scope=2;

soundEngine[]={"\SEF_CH53\Sound\Rotor.wss",0.5,0.5};

hasGunner=true;

gunnerCanSee=31;

driverCanSee=31;

transportSoldier=26;

accuracy=5;

rotorBig="\SEF_CH53\vrt_ch53_bl";

rotorBigBlend="\SEF_CH53\vrt_ch53_bl";

rotorSmall="\SEF_CH53\vrt_ch53_sbl";

rotorSmallBlend="\SEF_CH53\vrt_ch53_sbl";

weapons[]={"FK_M2"};

magazines[]={"FK_M2", "FK_M2"};

simulation=helicopter;

typicalCargo[]={Man};

driverAction = ManActUH60Pilot;

gunnerAction="ManActM113Gunner";

gunnerUsesPilotView=false;

driverIsCommander=true;

type=VAir;

};

then add the other things like weapons and textures changes from the default class to the secondary class;

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

class SEF_ch53eGreen: SEF_ch53Ebase

Just a better way to keep your configuration file cleaner and easier to added to.

Niiiiiiiiiiiice. Wouldn't have thought of that in a thousand years.

@Dragon: this addon is for a mod and i´m a less good config coder ... i use basic things to test the addon only ... the config finally made not by me.
