tractorking 10 Posted August 6, 2009 Ok So like some others have said there are somegreat tutorials here but for someone who has no prior knowledge of editing scripts and OFP its not obvious enough. Lists are cool but I am unsure of what to do with the info. Ive read the guides and searched and tried many ways but cannot get this to work so............. When adding smokeshells to the unit via the initialiation bar... Ive added: this addweapon "smokeshellgreen" I can see it in my inventory in game but there are none availible, Ive tried various combinations of strings to try to get 2 smoke shells but nothing worked......Ive used every trick in the tutorials and forum and cannot get them to show up in game... Help a brother out. The Editor is cool and bringing new life to an old love (ARMA) Also...is the editor in ARMA2 more user friendly? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tractorking 10 Posted August 7, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the quick help but..... How does one add multiple items? say I want 3 and not one? also, how do you make a unit throw smoke using a trigger or waypoint. ie: designating a landing zone Yes I did the search and read the Wiki and no apparent answer was availible. Most of the documents assume you already now the basics. wich I dont, sorry, Im a Newb at mission editing. Thank you again.

tractorking 10 Posted August 8, 2009 ok so Ive figured out alot of stuff from the armaedit, but most of it on my own through trial and error. So how do I make a ai unit throw a grenade. Or a tank brigade fire on something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
