Horse with rider

have you tried basing the config of the invisible turret on the m2 config? as ive tried that myself and the ai has no problems firing from the turret and getting fired at from the enemy

[Master_Chief 0]

it is a m2 config, and it still doesn't fire if you reapply the original weapons, and I tried the threat thing and it didn't change anything. I might have to make some kind of scripting workaround, but I would rather not have to.

Sweet buttery goodness! I fixed it! Now the project can continue! I guess the problem was that the turret needed its hardmounted weapon slot, so I added that to the weaponslots from the soldier class and added the browning mgun without ammunition. The AI guy with a g36 got in the turret, I told him to fire and he started shooting with his g36 in full auto. Just about jumped out of my chair.

Masterchief masterchief your the man....if you can't do it.....we'll go and ask keg. nicely

Seriously good work man. I class myself as an addon maker, but people like you are on a higher plane!

Reedkiller-dude, you can't expect The Great Lord Kegetys Of OFP-Code to come forth if you don't summon right, man!

Oh! Great and good Lord Kegetys, Master of OFP,

We humble gamers calleth Thy!

Rise forth from thine Kingdom of Code

Where thou art harried by missing brackets!

Cometh unto us in this time of desire,

Boweth for us the chains of game limitations

And showeth us the light of thine Sageness!

We humble gamers calleth Thy!

Oh! Great and good Lord Kegetys, Master of OFP.

Hopefully that did it... Anyone started to write The Bible of Keg yet? Oh, oh! I allmost forgot! Where is there a picture of The Allmighty Kegetys we can worship?

Back to the horsies... Love the Idea! Really looking forward to this! That AI firing his G36 like that sounds like you are making some nice progress! This must be usable to a lot of things if you just use your imagination a bit... Fire possitions in Houses would allways be welcome!

yes, this would be possible. the soldier would just stand at a window and shoot out without moving around and messing up his line of fire. It is also useful for units firing from vehicles. I made a test mission where there were ten soldiers with different weapons standing in the back of the 5t open truck. Then I made 2 lines of east soldiers and I drove the truck between them, and the soldiers engaged and killed them while I was driving around. My favorite technique is to drive circles around a cluster of enemy troops and have the soldiers in the back blasting them, it has a kind of old western feel. Anyways, I am going to use this on my halo mod so I can have a sidegunner on the warthog and marines sitting on the track pods of the scorpion.

Good Lord. You are indeed the Master Chief.

Would this method work "out of the box" with other addons? Eg. could I mount my Tonali rebels in that same truck and they'd start firing with their JAM AK's, RPDs and Mosins?

Anyway, this is wonderful stuff.

Cheers,

After you implement the script it should work.

Yes. It is also done without any mission scripting, so you would just get in the cargo position as normal. The units will fire the weapons they have, including pistols. I haven't tried any missile types yet though, but I could probably get it working.

Is it possible to change those animations? And will this script be released anytime soon?

Because it would be great if our (bushfires) soldiers could fire from their mineprotected cabs on the Buffel or the Casspir

Great work you have done so far, keep it up

[Geocider 0]

That I have been waiting for! It has said to be impossible to do, so I had kind of given up! Man that is some cool stuff! With a couple of different anims (crouching, leaning) it would be magnificent! I just wish I could be better with stuff like this so I could give something back... guess I'll have to check the editing forums and sites for tutorials and start training...

Keep it up, you guys!

Hmm... no Kegetys yet... maybe I'm no summoning master after all...

EDIT: Ehm... Is it futile to ask for a little release of this thingy? Just a little one? Tiny? Please? I mean... you don't have to or anything, the horsies ARE prority. Just... ehm... it would be nice you know...

Excellet job fellas, keep it up.

[[aps]gnat 28]

Wow! ..... the impossible is possible, seems it only takes time and effort by small earthly gods

[Triglav 0]

Damn!

Really...is there anything that CAN'T be done in OFP?

Excellent work, CW MOD will be very grateful for this!

[tsalagikola 0]

what is this a race now? see the news

Invasion of France released more screenshots of their early war MOD.

Interesting to note is the horse Will they be the first to release a working horse for OFP?

[Master_Chief 0]

I don't care about being the first, or even the best. What I want is to make an addon that works well and is actually useful to gameplay. If anyone wants to make a horse go right ahead

[reedkiller 0]

YaY! thats the right attitude Chief!

**sings the ballard of the wise Master Chief**

[Bobcatt666 0]

A person bothers working on a addon that overcomes the limitation and peoples IQ just go into the crapper?

I don't care who at least somebody finish the addon period!

sorry i did not mean anything bad about what i said because i know MASTER_CHEIF will do a fine job and i know he has worked very hard at it, he is doing a fine job and i know it takes as long as it takes on anything

Can we use this to make a foxhole?

--Ben

[Silent N Deadly 0]

Philcommando made a foxhole. You can find it here.

[reedkiller 0]

I was talking about a fox hole that you get in as a vehicle. Once in you meintain you old weapon and most of your body is underground. The fact that there is no actual hole could be hidden. For example with a log cover over the fox hole.

What has been shown in the horse and fireing from truck scripts should make this possible.

[NeMeSiS 11]

why should we want to get in a foxhole like a vehicle?

Yes, if you can automatically display the weapon a unit is carrying as the weapon of a vehicle. Then foxholes and every other form of static defence actually have an advantage rather than just being scenery.

You could add machine gun nests, barricades and probably the windows in Col Klinks DIB houses to the list. Might even be a convenient way of doing light mg's with bipods.
