O2 tutorial in Detail

[RUDOLF 9]

Any guy could kindly tell where could get O2 tutorial for ARMA or ARMA2 in very details, including the basic one to advanced, with way of putting textures, material editor use and etc.?

[Cornish Rebel 0]

I would be interested in that as well

Dont believe any exist.

Closest you'll come is;

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/_hosted/brsseb/tutorials.htm

Much is still applicable.

As Gnat says.. try those tutorials..

Just to help to you to get the crate tutorial working in game quickly' date=' try using the following lines of code as the config.cpp. The original did not work for me in AA2 and it took me hours of reasearch just to get that basic model to work.

This one will place the My Lovely Crate in... the Objects (under empty).

class CfgPatches

{

class Crate

{

units['] = {Crate};

weapons[] = {};

requiredVersion = 1.0;

};

};

class CfgVehicles

{

class All {};

class Thing : All {};

class Misc_thing: Thing {};

class Crate: Misc_thing

{

model="\crate\crate.p3d";

armor=20000;

scope=2;

displayName="My lovely crate";

accuracy=0.2;

};

};

Or this one will make it's own selection called Test...(under empty)

class CfgPatches

{

class Crate

{

units[] = {Crate};

weapons[] = {};

requiredVersion = 1.0;

};

};

class CfgVehicles

{

class All {};

class Thing : All {};

class Misc_thing: Thing {};

class Crate: Misc_thing

{

model="\crate\crate.p3d";

armor=20000;

scope=2;

displayName="My lovely crate";

accuracy=0.2;

vehicleClass = "Test";

};

};

hope this helps

Please use this config as a base and use OFPEC tags:

class CfgPatches
{
class YourTag_Crate
{
	units[] = {"YourTag_Crate"};
	weapons[] = {};
	requiredVersion = 1.03;
	requiredAddons[] = {"CAMisc3"};
	version = "2009-08-25";
	fileName = "YourTag_Crate.pbo";
	author = "name";
	mail = "mail@addy.net";
};
};
class CfgVehicles
{
class Misc_thing;
class YourTag_Crate: Misc_thing
{
	scope = 2;
	displayName = "My lovely crate";
	model = "\YourTag_Crate\crate.p3d";
	armor = 20000;
	accuracy = 0.2;
};
};

Working up to it with Videos....

http://www.ofpec.com/tutorials/index.php?action=show&id=225

Next Videos will be on the various Tools available in O2

Next series of videos after that will be on how to make a simple addon in O2.

I made some fences quite a while ago. I did get them into ARMA1 quite easily but am having trouble seeing them in the editor now. I get no errors in the log when I binarize it and my models seem o.k.

class CfgPatches

{

class bdfences

{

units[] = {wdfence1,stfence,srfence,gunemp};

weapons[] = {};

requiredVersion = 1.00000;

};

};

class CfgVehicleClasses

{

class myfenceclass

{

displayName = "Civil War fences";

};

};

class CfgVehicles

{

class All {};

class Thing : All {};

class Misc_thing: Thing {};

class wdfence1: Misc_thing

{

vehicleclass = "myfenceclass";

displayName="wood fence1";

model="\bdfences\wdfence1.p3d";

destrType="destructtent";

};

class stfence: Misc_thing

{

vehicleclass = "myfenceclass";

displayName="stone fence";

model="\bdfences\stfence.p3d";

destrType="destructtent";

};

class srfence: Misc_thing

{

vehicleclass = "myfenceclass";

displayName="snake rail fence";

model="\bdfences\srfence.p3d";

destrType="destructtent";

};

class gunemp: Misc_thing

{

vehicleclass = "myfenceclass";

displayName="gun emplacement";

model="\bdfences\gunemp.p3d";

destrType="destructtent";

};

};

Any help would be appreciated.

[t_d 47]

the class My_thing has probably scope = 1, so just add scope = 2 to all your fence classes.

[[aps]gnat 28]

You shouldn't need all

class All {};

class Thing : All {};

class Misc_thing: Thing {};

Just replace with

class Misc_thing;

And as Misc_thing is a "potected" addon, you'll need to add;

scope=2;

to each of your definitions.

Like;

class stfence: Misc_thing

{

vehicleclass = "myfenceclass";

scope = 2;

displayName="stone fence";

model="\bdfences\stfence.p3d";

destrType="destructtent";

};

Edit: Ooops. didnt see TDs post

[Stonewall Jackson 0]

Thanks TD and Gnat. Yes I see them now. Much appreciated.

I know I'm flowing a bit off topic but does any one know where I can get a look at the new class structures? I've never heard of Misc_thing class.

When I made these fences for OFP Resistance I used

class FenceWood: Fence {};

class wdfence: FenceWood

....etc.

TIA

You need to scan through the ALLINONE.CPP

Find the handy resources at DEVHEAVEN

Download it to keep it handy
