Sniper_Kyle 0 Posted March 8, 2005 Is the new version already uploaded and in the link in the first post, or should I not download that version? Oh yeah and I want to try out your disarm feature because when I first started making scripts for ofp I tried making a "cut the right wire" type of disarming script and failed. Hope to see how yours works out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panda-PL- 0 Posted March 8, 2005 I thought I said to wait for Offtime. He'll let you know. As for my part I'll try to explain how to use the modiffied script. You can doo it the old way. Or like this : 1) create "GameLogic" object and name it somehow (GL1 for example) 2) [bomb,7,31,GL1] ##the bomb's been armed. 4) GL1 setpos (anywhere further then 1 m. from bomb) ##you've just disarmed the bomb. Point 4) can be done anyway you want, for example by adding an action to the bomb<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">bomb addaction["diosarm bomb","isarm1.sqs"]and then creating disarm1.sqs in a mission directory that would look like that:<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">GL1 setpos [0,0,10] exit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
offtime 0 Posted March 8, 2005 after a little brain storm with Panda we have almost ready for tests new scripts system 1. after placing mine in editor (those clock triggered) missionmaker will need to define time of explosion, player will be able to disarm bomb (25% that bomb will blow up while disarming) 2. bombs triggered by cell phone will blow up when they detect movement of GoodGuys group close to the bomb but with condition that at least one member of group BadGuys will be still alive. also another IED will be added, this time artylery shell triggered by cell phone. for now download liink still covers old version.

-HUNTER- 1 Posted March 8, 2005 how about stacking some of those bombs in the back of a car or something... on the backseat of those small bis cars or something. More for eyecandy and missions like EOD missions... you guys probally arent going to make a nice custom blast... ?? IED have big explosions most of the time...

-HUNTER- 1 Posted March 8, 2005 well from all the footage Ive seen about IED's and terrorist propaganda movies where they are blowing the crap out of humveh's and well actually all sorts of vehicles.. Most of the time the thing goes off like mad... sources: www.atwar.ne t www.militaryphotos.ne t EDIT yes these are the bigger bombs I agree... and probally the smaller ones are placed in much more locations...

kerosene 0 Posted March 8, 2005 On that PBS documentary a humvee took a hit from an IED and everyone there was more or less fine I think. terrorist propaganda movies The key word there is propaganda. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panda-PL- 0 Posted March 8, 2005 You guys probally arent going to make a nice custom blast... ?? IED have big explosions most of the time... There is some customization. In next release there are standard BIS explosions (that's how bombs usually go off) PLUS particle effects made by scripts that imitate dust rised by a shockwave trough sending dustclouds outwards from the point of explosion. Of course this one's unofficial, so Offtime's gonna have to shoot me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-HUNTER- 1 Posted March 8, 2005 OOOHHH !!! Thats elite man! Yes those things Is exactly what I ment... really good thanks! Maybee add some dust that rizes, after a explosion in such dusty terrain as iraq it will block view for some secs depending on the wind and such... Also dust will rize up due to heated air from the blast... just an idea it is good enough... Im working on iraq missions on the unreleased Najaf map from Goon! These things will go into some of the missions for sure!!! http://img.photobucket.com/albums....456.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums....945.jpg and these 2 but they are larger then 100kb... h ttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v453/manhunter2004/dxdshot1109258082.jpg h ttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v453/manhunter2004/dxdshot1109258286.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also dust will rize up due to heated air from the blast... just an idea it is good enough... Yeah, I've seen the movies. This is how it looks 5secs. after the explosion. Seem's like this slowly turns into an "all you need to make a nice mission" kind of addon. Oh well. I'm thinkin' of making the cola-trap into a phosphorous bomb through adding some fancy scripts. If this turns out right then the same scripts could be used for makeing Ph grenades. I'm of good thought. Offtime is just scared. That's just the ambitios vision, so Offtime please don't add any nasty comments Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bucket man 2 Posted March 9, 2005 Noooo! Release that dust effect version before you start working on anything fancier please! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-HUNTER- 1 Posted March 10, 2005 ooh that also looks very nice!!! The addon is now good enough for me! I will use this for sure anyway... another idea I just got from reading your post... Maybee some RPG rounds stacked together with detonator... (I allways post meh ideas, maybee its usefull...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cpt. FrostBite 0 Posted March 10, 2005 Wilco, I don't know what you're talking about in regards to that pair of underwear (holy crap - I feel like a parent right now) but I don't think anything malicious was meant by it. If you think otherwise and can explain your reasoning and context, PM me. But as it stands right now, I just see a pair of boxers with firecrackers on it. All that comes to my mind is some lewd jokes. No more flaming or flame baiting in the topic please (that goes for anytone) and so help me God if anyone brings politics or anything opinionated about the Iraq war into this thread you will get a very long PR. A late reply but still; Wilco just posted the wrong picture. They now produce them in 3-color desert aswel, since research concluded that the pattern shown in Wilco's picture is not effective. But the will indeed protect you; http://www.af.mil/media/photodb/photos/050307-F-0000W-001.jpg Quote[/b] ]LANGLEY AIR FORCE BASE, Va. -- Second Lt.

Panda-PL- 0 Posted March 10, 2005 another idea I just got from reading your post... Maybee some RPG rounds stacked together with detonator... Â That's a "No"! RPG's are too precious to waste'em for such applications. Plus that would be totally ineffective: the shaped charge of RPG is densigned to produce great amounts of heat, not a massive shockwave and dangerous fragments. It has little potential as an AP mine... Quote[/b] ]Noooo! Release that dust effect version before you start working on anything fancier please! I dunno man... I really wouldn't like to update it too many times but on the other hand the only thing holding us back is that PH script. We appriciate the intrest, yet let's hold ourselves from sending posts that really soon will be outdated... ;) We're almost ready, so no fear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
belgerot 33 Posted March 11, 2005 You have done an amazing job on this, it is a great idea evolved into an even better addon. Looking forward to the cell-phone triggered bomb. I hope to see more progress soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panda-PL- 0 Posted March 11, 2005 I hope to see more progress soon  Progress, you say, like this: Taht's the Ph version of the script for cola-bomb. I't looks impressive, yet isn't that much of a danger. Like previous one it uses BIS standard grenade, so the effective range is resonable. Addon is now 99% complete and I'm right now trying to contact Offtime to have him check it and host it. He seems not to be there however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panda-PL- 0 Posted March 11, 2005 Great stuff. If you want you can send it to me and I can put it on FTP. Actually I have a place to host it. I simly have doubts 'bout what will Offtime think about it... He started the addon and he should be the one to host it. Yet the weekend is dead ahead and leaving everyone in suspension while the mod is practically ready feels kinda not right (I know you're dying to see it). So in Offtime's (and mine) name I'll host it as a beta release on Silver Kelpie Studios: download from SKS Xmas came early. Oh yeah. If you encounter any trouble and you read readme, then report them to my PM, or in this thread. It's a Beta because it was tested only a few times, so i might've missed something. Maybe we'll add some fancier readme later, 'cuz this one's a bit simple. Yet if you red this thred you should really have no problems. Have fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tomislav 0 Posted March 11, 2005 ahh, now it's working, thx for the fast reply, gonna play a little bit with it now edit: first test: really nice, functions worked, only get the error message ingame, when i put this into the init line: [this, 7,31]exec"\off_ied_Iraq\IEDsmall.sqs" then i get the error on the top of the screen: '_bomb setpos[_pos select 0, |#| _pos select 1, (pos select 2)+ .0.1]': Error select: Type Object, expected Array and the on the can-model seem to be some missing lods, as i can easily crouch through it and dive with the weapon into it, but the idea and the models are really well done *thunbs up* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
