motho38 0 Posted February 9, 2005 Hi there, After hours of search and work, I finally find out how to make a searchlight! The config is finished but i still have to complete the model before release. Here are few pics of the result. The searchlight works with player and AI and can "engage" or illuminate and follow ground or air targets... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redface 1 Posted February 9, 2005 wow that's looking cool existing searchlights were based on MG's, but the light never reached so far as your examples how did you manage to do this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomislav 0 Posted February 9, 2005 that's realy cool, nice textures on it and it will find the way into my addon folder. btw. if the AI spots someone with the light, do they recognize him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sepe 1 Posted February 9, 2005 Is it based on a machinegun? I mean, in that case i think the AI using it should target the enemy with it... I have a vision of a POW escape mission using this... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-ZG-BUZZARD 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Cool long-range light!!! When this is finished, could you see if you could do a light-house as well? I mean, with all the things being replaced in OFP with modern configs, I think it's about time the lighthouses get to be functional as well... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rhodite 3 Posted February 10, 2005 Thanx for your reply but I dont want to download the train pack if this searchlight can do the same job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
motho38 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Yes it is based on a MG, so you can config it to target soft, armored or air enemi vehicles. I'll also make a script for random search. I should release a aa version and probably a smaller one for guard towers. The concept is also usable on vehicles, specially jeeps or trucks. Motho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
