dm 9 Posted September 13, 2006 Hate to stray further offtopic (ish) but at BAS when we were doing the Littlebird update, we found that the custom animations were unreliable. On the MH-47E the backramp worked every time, others didnt. The same occured with the switches on the Littlebirds. We had the same setup as you, with the switch in every LOD etc etc. The only thing we found that it was because of the soundfile played along with the backramp. For some reason the sound caused the animation to be recognised globally, while the switch animations (with no sounds) were not being recognised on client machines a certain distance away from the helicopter. Thats why we switched to weapons on the LB's. Anyho, not that it matters, as I doubt this addon is going to get too much MP use. And hey, at least it actually works on a dedi server without causing error messages or crashes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Messiah 2 Posted September 13, 2006 cheers kyle - have been using the method you've suggested for a while (the idea about using every conceivable LOD), its more i've had told and read 100's of contrary reports it hurts the brain What exactly are you saying? sorry, guess it didnt sound/read clear essentially i've been using that method, but had read that it can be unreliable, although i havnt encountered it - so i was wondering if you were doing anything different in your methology... hence why i asked my initial question.

Big Dawg KS 6 Posted September 13, 2006 Well all I know is I've never had problems with animations. And like I said before if it's only for setobjecttexture, it won't make much of a difference if it's not in view. Also, in MP, if one player is one side of the island and another on the ohter side, if one of them puts on a mask, the animation should work because it's on the player's unit (not far away from them). Assuming animations are global, even if there are no other players around, all it should take is for it to work for one person and the local scripts (the scripts running on each unit locally for each player) will detect the proper animationphase. So even if this animation problem exists, it really doesn't effect the setobjecttexture method. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

23-Down 0 Posted September 14, 2006 Yep i hope u will update it, one more time again, please.. The version of your Gaz24 isn't working probably, the lights are not seeable if i activate the sirens or light button. It works only with the original version of the Gaz24 but the orig version dont has the cool turning lights like your version. Please fix that. oh btw: It's a fantastic addon liked your previous version from 2003\2004. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blackdog~ 0 Posted September 14, 2006 great job dude,but is there a helicopter planned...coz would be really nice to drop off units in a riot Indeed, this is probably asking a lot, but it would be pretty cool if you could either get permission to use Airwolf_PL's police Mi-2 (with your police marking standards and better loudspeaker voices in place) or if you could get permission to use Nash Orijue's stuff.

dm 9 Posted September 14, 2006 Nah, I'm afraid thats it. I wasn't even going to update 1.2, but because it was a stupid packing error you got 1.2a. No more Policie work from me, was only because I found the source files and thought it would be nice to get them out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lenin 0 Posted September 14, 2006 Great addon. Unfortunatly, there is one little bug. Gaz24's (edited by DMX) police light is always on, but it doesn't rotate. Neither, if you turn it on (or off) from the menu. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
