If you can't find the name, then take a peek inside the config ;) .
-
dont understand........is there a manuel with all the 'special' objects in?
-
No he means depboing it and peaking in the mission.sqm file (if it is a mission) or in the config.cpp (if it is a addon).
-
NO! i mean things like what chops used as a punji stake....an aerial! Its like what u find on the back of a uaz. Am i missing something here or did he use a prebuilt model?
-
lol, ow u mean an antenna ;D, that kinda aerial :D.
Well the same sollution still applies, u can de-pbo the addon and find the class name of the aerial. :)
-
no but i need to camcreate the antenna thing, and i dont think chops de-pbo'ed anything.....and if he did....what the f**k was it he unpbo'ed?
-
Ok gettin the name in 4 steps:
1. de-pbo the traps addon.
2. open the config.cpp file with notepad or whatever.
3. find the name of the aerial.
4. use the name to camcreate with it.
-
no, i dont need the name of the antenna thing, i need tank parts an stuff, and its a script not an addon, so i want 2 know where he got the classname from. It just camcreates an antenna. i want tank turrets and tracks ect.
-
That script uses the radio object (the big one) that is used in many of the cutscenes in the Res campaign. Its under the objects menu, but I cant remember the name.
-
object menu? what? can i find more objects like it?
-
When placing a new unit in the mission editor, click on the box next to "class" and select "objects"
-
eh? i need to camcreate objects like tank tracks turrets ect.
-
I thought you said you wanted to know what the classname of the antenna used in the pungi stake trap was? I'm telling you that it isn't just an antenna, its the radio, only placed below ground so you only see the antenna. Just plop down a radio, save the mission, open up the mission.sqm file and look for the "vehicle==XXX" line. Walla, you have your classname.
As far as tank tracks, turrets, etc: I've never seen any such object. I know there isn't anything like that by default. Maybe you could find something like that in the editor upgrade, but I really doubt it.

oh, i is wid u now.....ok! Thnx
