456820 0 Posted June 25, 2005 i would love asniper to have a head and torso ghillie http://www.surplusandadventure.com/ishop/800/shopscr2735.html then as pants to have http://www.armynavyshop.com/Merchan....ouflage then as gun camo have http://www.armynavyshop.com/Merchan....ouflage wich to me i think that would be an ultimate looking sniper than as a weapon OHHHH what a choice how about an Accuracy International AS50 sniper rifle (Great Britain) http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn67-e.htm that would be pretty cool to have as a sniper. just a thought if you plan to relase any more snipers or observer's anyway im feeling generous so im going to send my sniper mission to you Maximus-Sniper quite soon its not finished but its near enough if you plan to change the units you can, but you cannot relase it until my campaign is relased with this mission in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

456820 0 Posted June 25, 2005 oh yeah if you need any help with the scripts just send me an IM with a little detail of what you need to do and ill get right on it you also say <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">Now i'm working with the Vehicle Hit Dammage, well it alllmost worked, hehe Run into a problem.... what problem may this be i could have a go at this if you havent already figured it out, if its the thing i posted above or is it something to do with blowing up the Bmp ? Great pack its definaltey coming alonf cant wait for the fianl producyt EDIT - A nice touch would be to have some dust fly into the air if the player is prone to add to some special effects Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maximus-Sniper 0 Posted June 26, 2005 Hi 456820 Thanks for the sniper mission I used my sniper, than it was a bit easyer, lol And about the Enemy Hit Dammage, it's work here. And i only make it for HeadShot and Chest btw... i like that fench script.. i got a new idea, to make a camo cottage to the sniper But i'm not realy sure how i can call for a pbo file or something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jackal326 1181 Posted June 26, 2005 @456820: If I recall correctly, the Marine Assault Pack by Earl/Suchey/Tactician included a series of scripts for increased rifle smoke etc from the M16s/AKs etc in the pack. It also included a kick ass smoke effect for the M82, as well as, a dust kick-up script when firing prone (I think, might have been a 3rd-party script for that though - not 100% sure).

I can remember the Marine assault pack having an M82, but King Hommers Engagement Pack have a very nice scripted dust effects and stuff. Maximus-Sniper, you may want to contact King Hommer and see if he can give you some hints, his Engagement pack is my favourite. I really like his values for the balistics. Regards. @CERO.

Maximus-Sniper 0 Posted June 26, 2005 Hi I have dust/shock effect for this M82A1A btw, i'm soon finish with the "Make Camo Cottage" Maximus-Sniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maximus-Sniper 0 Posted June 27, 2005 Hi all <span style='color:red'>New Update</span> I have made a Camo Cottage for the sniper Simple use the Action Menu to "Make Camo Cottage" and you can destroy it after. I made it a bit high, because you can use the new sniper position(sitting) under the camo cottage Maybe it's a litle bit to high?? Hope you like it Maximus-Sniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FerretFangs 0 Posted June 27, 2005 It is a little too high. Typically a hide is a shallow depression, or a trench with netting and/or natural foilage forming a low roof primarily over the heads/upper torso, and rifle sights/barrel of the team lying side by side. Often they will dig ledges just below, and to the sides of the rifle, and the spotting scope, to hold ammo, binoculars, range card, radios, etc. They may lay there for days waiting for a shot, never or rarely moving, and then only at night.They eat, sleep, and piss/shit while in the hide, maintaining the utmost steath so as to not compromise their mission and personal security. Due to game engine limitations with the terrain probably what you've done is the smartest way of doing a hide, I just think your design needs refinement. My suggestion, is to make it match the camo of the shooters, and should probably be shaped like a much smaller version of RKSL's howitzer camo net. I think it should be no more than chest height at most, wide enough for two men lying side by side, long enough to reach from nearly the muzzle, back to the shooters waists. It should peak over the shooters heads. Making and breaking down the hide tent with a menu selection is great, but you don't want it interfering with the reload command. And finally, it would be nice if was useful, actually hiding units underneath it from the AI with a greater camoflage rating. Oh, and I get where you're coming from, making it high enough for your new shooting posture, but that's not going to be most realistic situation. The reason is because that posture wouldn't be used in that kind of hide site. Typically the snipers shoot prone, on their belly's. They lay on an incline, so that their feet are lower than their heads. They shoot prone, so that they present the smallest possible frontal target area. The time when your sitting posture might be used is when the shooter can shoot from inside a structure, or when they cannot make a shot from a prone position.

Ok, i'm gonna change it to smaller size Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jackal326 1181 Posted June 27, 2005 Don't change the texture on the hide though. In the 3rd screenshot you posted, its not immediately obvious where the hide is (granted, it is visible), but if it were the same Burlap-type camo of the snipers, it would be visible a mile-away. Will also need some well made LODs otherwise it will be a dead give-away as to the position. Also some well defined config values so the hide is very hard to detect by the AI.

456820 0 Posted June 27, 2005 yeah its abit to high how about just above the sitting animation's head then have some leaves and stuff coming from the top down, it looks quite good but by any chance does it help visibilty against Ai if not is it possible to do that ?

-Marine_Sniper- 0 Posted June 27, 2005 I think if you can like, put something in it's LODS that classify it as a bush. I'm sorry I don't know the proper steps to do it, but thats what I imagine would work. I love the textures you have on your sniper though Maximus, they really give it that "burlap" look.

Hi Jackal326 I figured it out, i don't think i change the color of the net. I was trying to make one only with the burlap, hehe Yeah you can see it from far away So i keep the camo net...

456820 0 Posted June 27, 2005 try and make it with strings of camo if you know what i mean like on the ghillie suits its like lots and lots of string all atached like have bits of that on the netting wich would look pretty cool also the lower you make it to the ground the harder it will be to see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sepe 1 Posted June 27, 2005 Looks great! But about that shed, how about some leaves and/or branches on it? A bit like the FDF Mod's one, completely made of pine tree branches. And it needs a lower profile, maybe so that you can only go in prone, maybe crouching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FerretFangs 0 Posted June 27, 2005 Dynamite_cow, has a good point. While it's a bit silly for a sniper to have bushes growing out of his back like a damn BIS garden, a sniper hide is constucted using bushes, grass, and other natural materials from the area it's located in. So I'd make two clumps of knee-high grass, or small bushes at the front, with the shooter and rifle placed in between. Then I'd have the net angling back, and downwards towards his feet. I probaly wouldn't have it coverng all the legs, probably just to above the back of the thighs. ANd you could make a desert one too. Use a couple clumps of desert grass, or bushes at the front, and make the net/tent to look like a low sand dune. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maximus-Sniper 0 Posted June 27, 2005 Hi Sounds great, but i need a pic to look at. It's more easy for me, hehe. btw, i change the como cottage to a smaller size, it's not so hight anymore. Just need some more fix on it But i can try to add some bushes if thats look more like a hide place Maximus-Sniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FerretFangs 0 Posted June 27, 2005 Ok, something like this: http://www.altrec.com/shop/detail/19144/# but perhaps just a bit lower, and less pointed at the top. It should be rounded, like a mound of earth, about 2m x 2m long/wide, and half a meter high at the top. It should be higher at one end than the other, like the tent in the picture. You could make it a little shorter in length, only covering the head, back, and upper thighs, of the team lying prone underneath. There should be at least two small bushes, or clumps of grass, from the editor. The sniper lies under the tent, on his belly, with the rifle poking out from between the two bushes. I think grass would work better, IMO. Infact, you could make the thing look like a small grassy mound of earth. The outer edges of the net should be flush with the ground. That means they should gently slope down to the ground, and sink down into it at the edge. The tent/net should look like a very small hill, with little bits of grass growing out of it, here and there, and a couple small bushes in front of the open end. I guess the opening would kind of resemble a low, wide cave at the base of a very small hill. The entrance of the cave is partially covered by a little grass, or bushes. the sniper lives on his belly in the cave, with his rifle poking out towards the surrounding terrain. Are you getting my description now? I guess one question is, when its built is it big enough to cover both shooters side by side? Either team member should be able to construct the hide site with the action menu. And it should be wide enough so that it covers both of them at the same time.
