Big Dawg KS 6 Posted March 3, 2006 Well, the obvious one is fact that once you've killed a tripod you can pick up it's gun  "Tripodweapon on back" 'nuff said  No, this too can be prevented, it's all a matter of how much understanding you have of configs. Same with picking up M16's, you can definatly prevent this. I'm disappointed at how many people are clueless about the potential that resides in the config. If only they knew...

max power 21 Posted March 4, 2006 I'm frequently disappointed at how clueless people are at optimizing models. But then again, I don't go around insisting that people who don't do 3d art should know this stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wenker 0 Posted March 4, 2006 Well maybe i requested it earlier, but im not anymore cause i am working on it. Today after work i went home and was bored so i had drawn up a board. (yes that is how laim i am) I am going to make i dont want to say a total conversion, but it will mainly have other peoples addons in it (except the tripod) which is in the process of being made. Putting aside all the bs... It will be a 4 version campaign...and fun.. So the likelyness of this addon being made is 100%. just hope nothing falls through. but if anyone wants to helpout.. drop a line.... Pm me if you want details...

max power 21 Posted March 4, 2006 Good for you, Wenker. Just make sure that you get permission from the authors of the mods you intend to use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BraTTy 0 Posted March 4, 2006 I been outta touch with addons for a bit but from what I gather... Surely you can make a units whole animations as another soldier class. (way more complex project than the modelling for example). Especially if your not gonna drive it (get in = vehicle). About the learning modelling thing.O2 is a very simple modelling program and I don't see why you couldn't be modelling a rifle within a week for example...It won't take years to learn it. And the Coast Guard only works 40 hour weeks don't they?I have 2 kids and run a business and work way more than 40 hours and don't have much time for anything.I made addons when I worked 40 hour weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wenker 0 Posted March 7, 2006 This is the model with no animations, textures, or scripts. But as you can see this is the older version.. Not the one from the current film.. I could use some extra help with it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrbean1112 0 Posted March 8, 2006 Wenker my freind, If I could help you i would... as i would also love to see the Tripods Running around in operation flashpoint (would make some nice coop missions at the next Lan party) However... i can not figure out how to use these programs... I mean... I tried a while back when i tried to make a Strider from half life 2 into OFP... But i failed miserably.... However, if anyobody has the skills to help this guy out, Please do... Think of the possibilities.. He already got the model done... (Even though it is the older version)..... Someone has to know how to make these things work!

UKSubmariner 0 Posted March 9, 2006 And as I mention all the time in these walker based threads, whoever does (if they do) construct them, could they possibly make it so infantry will target it with their rifles, and also it'll turn its heat ray on them? That was the only drawback to those otherwise lovely Wanzers, and that Dalek a few years back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wenker 0 Posted March 9, 2006 dude i will do what i can.. as of right now the only thing i have is the model... No scripts, no textures, no animations, not even hit points or anything on the model...you can just fly right through it.. only thing i have scripted into it right now is a gun just to make sure that whati have right now will target planes,inf, and armor. But the good news is this pack will( if ever finished) noth original tripod model and the new version of the tripod, along with the martian flying mechine. Yes heat rays are planned to be worked on and so is everything else from the book and movies.. Its just really hard right now because we have 2 people working on this project. So honestly expect may be the alpha/beta versions in ofp and the final in aa. Thats all for now thanks for support!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
