Binoculars zoom sight

[jedi-knight 0]

Hi! I was created a new binoculars zoom sight (with angular markers). How can I change the original sight? Do I must create a new "weapon" with this sight?

[raedor 8]

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

class Binocular : Default

{

//--

scopeWeapon = public;

scopeMagazine = protected;

model="dalekohled_proxy";

modelOptics="INSERT_THE_PATH_TO_YOUR_p3d_OF_THE_OPTICS_HERE";

valueWeapon = 5;

weaponType = WeaponSlotBinocular;

magazineType = WeaponNoSlot;

ammo=; // no ammo

displayName = $STR_DN_BINOCULAR;

reloadTime=0.0;

sound[]={,0,1};

canLock=LockNo;

optics = true;

forceOptics = true;

primary = false;

opticsZoomMin=0.085;

opticsZoomMax=0.085;

magazines[] = {};

};and insert your path.

that's it afaik.

Thanks, raedor! You saved my day!

Sorry if this is a silly question, but is it possible to make binocs "zoomable" like the M21 sight?

I'm guessing not, or someone already would have...or maybe they already have and I didn't hear about it...

Well, I haven't tried it but I don't see any reason why not, just make opticsZoomMin and opticsZoomMax have different values...

edit: I just tried it, works like a charm

they are zoomable in wgl. so it should work.

[raedor 8]

as feer said, they are zoomable. just change these two lines (or one of them)<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> opticsZoomMin=0.085;

opticsZoomMax=0.085;

Thanks, I'll check out WGL, too.

Raedor:

Sorry, but i'm novice in editting. I followed this steps:

1. Saved my new scope image as "binoc.paa" file;

2. After changed the path of my .paa file in your code lines, I was saved them as "binoc.cpp";

3. With a PBO tool, I was packed the two files as "binoc.pbo"

4. After this, I was grabbed the PBO file int the AddOns game folder.

Wath is wrong?

Wath is wrong?

You have to replace the main config.bin with your edited version, as you can not ADD new binocular/nvg type "weapons"

[raedor 8]

also you have to make a model out of it. just 4 points = 1 face, your texture on them and save it.

check the BIS binocular model (optika_dalekohled.p3d in data3d.pbo). open it with odol explorer 2.44 or p3dedit.

I can't find the p3dedit program, and my ODOL is the 2.00 version. I was attempted to open the file with a tool called XPAC, but it doesn't work fine (it extracts a .p3d_ file???).

Is there another program to edit this file?

I swear when I first got OFP years ago that the binocs zoomed.Not sure why or if they took it out

And just rambling some more that I can guarantee that we also could "move in driver" to a camcreated soldier (remember that camcreated soldiers were stupid,that it didn't have any AI)

I used to "move in driver" on a camcreated soldier,your prolly think what good is that.It was a good way to change your clothes,appearance etc...as you were just using the new soldier as a new vehicle.I tried this about a year ago and appears that you no longer can do this either.
