Custom ruins models for custom buildings

[DPS -CCCP- 0]

Hello.

I have created a building, and configured this, that when building is destructed, it's falling down and there is destruction (ruin) model that created in place, were building was before destruction. Like most of standart buildings in ArmA...

But when I try to use my own created "ruin" model in config, I have no results in game (ruined model don't loading).

Here a part from config, that should load ruined object after destruction:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

class DestructionEffects: DestructionEffects

{

class CB_b1_ruins

{

simulation = ruin;

type=\OWP_cb\ruins\OWP_CB_b1_ruins.p3d;

position="";

intensity = 1;

interval = 1;

lifeTime = 1;

};

};

Custom ruin object won't load (there is no difference what I have in custom model: complex model, simple box or just renamed one of original ruins model from ArmA, so the broblem is not in the model)

But if I replace

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

type=\OWP_cb\ruins\OWP_CB_b1_ruins.p3d;

with

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

type=\ca\buildings\ruins\Panelak3_ruins.p3d;

all works well with in-game ruin model. But I want use my own..

p.s.

try to put

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">type=\ca\OWP_cb\ruins\OWP_CB_b1_ruins.p3d;

No changes:(

You also need a config for your ruins model, otherwise the engine doesn't know what to do with the model.

The class MUST be land_(modelname).

So, in your case, the classname MUST be "land_OWP_CB_b1_ruins".

Just configure the ruins like any other building, but it MUST use the classname above!

Wow! It's work! Thank you:)

Didn't think about that "land_" in name can affect something...

land_ is also required if you want your visitor-placed objects to have a config.

When you load a map, for every object on the map it will look for a config with the name land_(modelname). If it finds it, the config will be used for that map-placed object.

Note this only happens if the model has simulation=house or building in the named properties, I believe.

Anyway, this is how you can have things like working doors or lights for visitor placed objects (as opposed to only editor-placed objects).

Thank you for usefull info!

Any chance you can share your config. I have a door model that when destroyed i want to show a ruin model of the door. I too am not getting any model showing up when the door is destroyed - any help greatly appreciated

I'm not shure what exactly you mean, but here is a config, I hope it will help you.

Thanks will try this out !

Any clue?? I haven't given the object a class name in the named properties, i have also tried using default ruins but dont get anything when the door is destroyed ??
