NSX 8 Posted May 11, 2006 Great addon-an alterntive SF vehicle from RL SF experience.Good work!Is there any versions with MGs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AK-Chester 0 Posted May 11, 2006 (edited) Thanks, NSX! No, sorry, there is no mg-version of it. Feel free to make one, though (or use this one by Lt Damage, or the ones from the Toyota Wars Mod). Edited June 29, 2013 by AK-Chester Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NSX 8 Posted May 11, 2006 @AK-Chester Sadly I don't have enough modelling experience. Previous Toyta Hilux was badly done and ToytaWars Technicals are not in use by US SF.You Toyotas are very good,but haven't any US MGs mounted.But still,my choice for US SF as good as SF HumVee modification in SEF pack.

AK-Chester 0 Posted May 12, 2006 (edited) Thanks guys, glad you like it! @raedor: Hey ho, nice to seeya! Alles im Lackschuh? @CanadianTerror: Nice find, thanks! I've been flying and walking above and around this thingie for a couple of hours yesterday, using helis and camera.sqs, but I haven't been able to reproduce this issue here. I'm not saying that there is no issue, indeed, looking at your screenie there obviously is. It's just that it's hard to fix something you can't see in the first place. Any ideas how I can reproduce this? Thanks again! Edited June 29, 2013 by AK-Chester Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brataccas 0 Posted May 12, 2006 yo chester, was this supposed to happen in your sample mission? I was driving along the bridge and all of a sudden the bridge gets taken out and the ah64 chasing me crashed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AK-Chester 0 Posted May 12, 2006 (edited) yo chester, was this supposed to happen in your sample mission? I was driving along the bridge and all of a sudden the bridge gets taken out and the ah64 chasing me crashed? Hehe. Well, not exactly. The chopper is supposed to hunt you. If he decides to take out the bridge (as well, instead?), that's fine with me. In an earlier version of the demo I even used to destroy each part of the bridge via script once you'd crossed it. Basically a nice effect, but I took that out because (as the driver) you'd barely notice it anyway. It looks like the chopper sorta misses that script, though... And regarding the chopper crashing... yes, that's correct, he's not supposed to make it to the camp at all - and I strongly doubt he ever will.

brataccas 0 Posted May 12, 2006 hehe ok, I hope I see this addon converted for arma it would fit in VERY nicely I imagine so fun and bouncy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any ideas how I can reproduce this? Thanks again! No, it's all in the Birkenstock... @the prob CanTerr mentioned: The LOD switching is quite hard to reproduce. We had similar problems with LODs switching on our OilAddon, the LODs do switch to very different times (or better: distances) on different systems/settings. But in your case you just have to check the texture paths in all res. LODs, in one LOD there must be a wrong path... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AK-Chester 0 Posted May 14, 2006 (edited) ...I hope I see this addon converted for arma it would fit in VERY nicely I imagine... And I hope I see "arma" some day. No, it's all in the Birkenstock... Hehe, sounds healthy. LOD issue: thanks for info, raedor! I've been talking to CanadianTerror in the meanwhile (thanks again, mate) and was finally able to reproduce it, which - just like you said - seems to be very hard to do. It only happens with FOV maxed out and going really high here (no drugs involved), and even then it is still pretty hard to notice. We will try to fix this issue in case this addon should get an update one day, but I doubt there will be one until some more serious issues should show up - or, maybe, when "arma" is out...
