Title: Artillery Addon that is fairly simple to implement and realistic?
Post by: Mr.Pibb on 13 Dec 2004, 01:49:12

 Hi

Just recently discovered the wave of artillery script addons availible here  :o

And I am not one to just download 10 different scripts till I find one that works(too much time loss) so, Id like to ask..

 Is there an Artillery addon that is:
 MP compatable <without constant issues with various server types
 Simple to implement - doesent take a script veteran to get it working
 And realistic - 'realistic' meaning realistic cannons that fire, flashes, explosions, etc - I personally would be using it for AI use only, so the actual player use of it dosent matter to me, just want the most realistic effect of the whole thing.(neat picture in my head of the land illuminating around the artillery firing and shells exploding in the night)

 Really appreciate any suggestions, much better than spending hours dwnloading 10 or more different addons till I find it (if what I am lookin for even exists lol)

 Thanks

 Pibb
 
 btw- didnt know exactly where to post this, editors depot forum doesent have a 'script' discussion, so hopefully this is the next best spot, if theres a more relevant spot for this topic admins feel free to move it, or I can re-post in right place - whichever.

well in the first sentance u said u wanted a script but in the second sentance u said you were looking for an addon.

it actually it depends on what you want as ofpec has many scripts and addons to suit your custom needs.



if you  want the arty to actualy be fired from arty guns and head into the target see the addon beta section(sombody just recently put one in)

if you want "simulated arty" where the rounds are being created above the target and are not really being fired from an arty gun then do what triggerhappy said.

Unified Artillery by Dinger and others at the addons depot (did artillery search)

Looks like exactly what Im lookin for  ;D

Fully functional artillery cannons.

Thought id throw this on in case someone looks here, havent tried it yet but it looks like a one of a kind.
