Simple Config Question

[Major Blood 0]

Hello All

I am creating a new unit, but I am having some trouble with the config. I need to define a custom face for this unit simply named: hhl_01_co.paa

With this config the units faces are random:

class CfgPatches

{

class IPD_operators

{

units[]={"IPD_operators"};

weapons[]={};

requiredVersion = 1.05;

requiredAddons[]={};

};

};

class CfgVehicleClasses

{

class IPD_operators

{

displayName="IPD_operators";

};

};

class CfgSkeletons

{

class Default;

class Head

{

isDiscrete = 0;

skeletonInherit = "";

skeletonBones[] ={"neck","","neck1","neck","head","n

eck1","lBrow","head","mBrow","head","rBr

ow","head","lMouth","head","mMouth","hea

d","rMouth","head","eyelids","head","LLi

p","head"};

};

class OFP2_ManSkeleton

{

isDiscrete = 0;

skeletonInherit = "Head";

skeletonBones[] =

};

};

};

Can someone please advise on how to define a specific face for the unit in the above config?

Sidenote: I am sure this is a simple fix, and its funny, I think most people had trouble getting random faces on the units, and I am asking the opposite.

I am complete noob with configs and just learning O2. Any help is appreciated.

Hey Q

Thanks for the reply. I dont understand your answer. I checked the link, but I dont get it. Can someone please elaborate. I have tried many changes in config, but nothing has worked.

Like I said, this should be a simple fix, but I have no clue.

Its too hard to read when posted straight to the forum, the format becomes a mess. Use Pastebin so the format is clean and readable

C++ is a language you can select

maybe its enough to delete the swap_hhl entry posted above.

sure shot is to rename the selection in o2/your model.

Urgh.... don't put CfgModels and CfgSkeletons info directly in your config; rather, create a model.cfg and binarize your model. Otherwise some users will get errors when they use your addon.

Hello again

Thank you for your replys.

I have removed the "swap_hhl" from the config, but no luck. I am sorry I dont understand what you mean by rename selection in O2. The desired face shows perfectly in Buldozer, but is ramdom in editor.

Barron this is a random config that I found somewhere, and my first attempt at getting a unit in game. I dont have the knowlege required to understand your statment. I am complete noob and only do modeling and textures. Besides with this being my first unit addon, it will most likely be for personal use only.

I am obviously missing something here.

Help Pleaseee

named selection are parts of the model that are specificly named. swap_hhl will have the head and the hands in this selection. check if the named selections window is active and search for swap_hhl in that list (all in o2). doubleclick it. head and hands should get red. rightclick on the swap_hhl entry in the list and name it like you want. this "disconnects" the config entry from the model, wich should result in showing the applied texture only not a random one. have to be done in all LOD´s wich actually has that entry.

Scars09:

That got it done. I went into O2 and changed the named selection. It now works perfectly. Thank you all for your help.

my pleasure

but we did it the rambo way i just noticed

easiest option would have been an initeventhandler added to config wich adds your face texture to the swap_hhl selection, bypassing the random faces.

[Von Rundstedt 0]

Could have been done by simple addition to config too. By adding following in "class IPD_operators: SoldierWB"

faceType = "blahfaces";

and adding this to config:

class CfgFaces

{

class blahfaces

{

class Face1

{

name = "Peter F.";

texture = "\ca\characters\hhl\hhl_01_CO.paa";

east = 1;

west = 1;

};

Which would have blocked all other faces than hhl_01_co.paa
