Hi,
Since the FLAG object has a mission designers option to attach a flag texture to it, why not with a street or city sign (name plate?)
So, I am looking for an object where I can set the texture of it!

There is one I know of off the top of my head, but it's more of an advertisement-type sign than a street sign. I'm sure you can use this in some situations, or else you might have to make a new addon. A new one wouldn't be that hard to make though.

There is also an actual "street signs" addon, but it only includes two signs. You can check it out, and if it is close to what you need, you can either ask the author for permission to modify it to allow more textures, or you can make a new one similar to that style.

the first leads to a dead download link... :noo:
the second one is not what I want.
And making a new addon for me is impossible,,, ???
-
I can make the model... Shouldn't be too hard. No idea on how to make it customized though... Nedless to say, I'm no addon maker. I can have a look at that advert sign and maybe try to figure out how he did it.
:beat: *Gets Shot* :beat:
EDIT: That is, if I can find a correct link to the advert sign. ;D

Hi,
It has something todo with hiddenselections in oxygen, and the use of setobjecttexture, at least that is what I can find in the forum.
Maybe that helps a bit?
Johan
-
Yea, that's what I thought. I have no idea how to use them though. As I said, I'm no addon maker. I got a tag though, yay! ;D

in oxygen select the face or faces you want to be effected by the setobjectexture command, and make a new selection and name it yay
in the config you have to define yay in the Cfg models part like so
class cfgModels
{
class Default{}:
class Building : Default {};
class sign : Building
{
sectionsInherit = "Building";
sections[] = {yay};
};
};
make sure you have a texture mapped to the yay faces

@oyman
Wow.. thats abracadabra to me.. can you make a simple pole, with a plate on it that way?
Johan
-
sure when I get home ;)

Hey there was a sign addon on edgefiles that Grunt249 mentioned here but its link doesnt work.
But anyway, this addon idea sounds fun for making shops and car dealers and stuff.
We could even try to make a soda machine that you can advertise on!
If anyone makes this addon, please tell me! :) ;)

heres a test of the sign
I just took the BIS sign model, demo mission included
if you want some more sign models draw some in paint or something and ill make them :)

1 bug is that you cant knock down the pole

Have you tried:
destrType="DestructTree";
Planck
-
yes, I have
its in the config right now
seems not to work on objects configed as flags or anything that is configed off flags :-\
-
Hi,
Can you also include the TGA for the sign? its easier to make a new texture... :-)
And while your at it, maybe a small billboard too?
Looking forward great Oyman!
Johan
-
Base it off another class .....hmmm...... Target perhaps.
Let me see...
class Static: All;
class Building: Static;
class Strategic: Building;
class Target: Strategic;
class Whatever: Target
...

i think it would be great if someone made a set of blank signs, that could be changed using "setobjecttexture" like the nose paint on the SEB Nam Pack 2 Hueys. the sign looks the same, just has a different words/pictures
-
Well, he did, and does some more.. finally some is capable of doing it.. fingers crossed..
Johan
:D

those signs do use the setobjecttexture command the one in the middle is just the regular sign, and the ones on the outside use the command :)
