New Mags for T72

[Cloughy 0]

I have made some neew mags for the t72, with no damage ammo, for a opening scene on my mission, i want the effects but no damage. The ammo works great when i createVehicle, it explodes, not hurting owt near it. But i create some mags for the T72 so the ai would attack my armoured convoy, but not hurt it, i dont get a error message but the ammo wont load, is there a config setting of the t72, which says what ammo it takes?, same for ak74s?

Cheers

there's magazines value for each weapon (or mode can't remember). define new weapon with new mags

[fasad 1]

Might it be easier to use a Fired event handler and one of the nearObject commands to find and delete the tank's rounds immediately after each shot?

[nuxil 2]

Yes using Fired event handler Might be easyer. depends on what you exectly want to do.

why you do not want to use it is because.

1.st. createVehicle is something you also want to avoid if nessesary.

2. nd. catching the object is better than deleting it.

3rd. make ammo to sute exactly the way you want them.

example in you case you could set hit=0; indirectHit=0; in your cfgAmmo.hpp file.

4.th creating a new vehicle makes alot of headic if you want to add score to MP missions. "who fired the weapon, who created the shell, shell killed someone, what typeOf did the shell kill. etc etc"

5.th thats automaticly done by the Game engine if you add a new weapon class in your "vehicle"

can you post the new mags config so we can look and help..

[Cloughy 0]

I have sorted it now, I have had to make new no damage ammo, then mags, then guns, then tank and uaz.

All config, fairly easy really.

This is simply for effect, i want the convoy to get attacked withut taking damage in one part of the mission.

Actually not sorted, here is my config,

it keeps saying (When the game starts.)

no entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgVehicles/Turrets.scope'

And when i try to insert the unit in the editor, it says something about a fireanim not bing defined.

Let me know if i need to be more specific with the 2nd error, if you have never come accross it before.

AI knows the hit value of the ammo, so he will not fire it because he knows that it does no damage.

Workaround was made in configs for laser "weapon" which can fire and makes no damage.

[Cloughy 0]

So i should make the tank fire these lasers? Or do i need to change my config to allow tank to fire lasers?

I want to code my vehicle model for Arma engine, so is there any tutorial available?
