Title: Smoke Script Request
Post by: USM-CPT.Dyson on 19 Sep 2008, 21:15:39
Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone had some free time to make some scripts. If your looking for a topic to make scripts for, I have a few.

- Replace BIS smoke with realistic long lasting smoke effect
- Add smoke launchers to Tanks, APCs, and HWMVVs/ UAZs.

No, I'm not lazy. I just have 13 credit hours and I work 50 hours a week.

Thanks for reading,

Dyson

I know I've seen working smoke launchers in tanks and APCs, so that already exists (I saw it in IC-ArmA (http://ic-arma.net/), but I'm sure it has been implemented by other people too).

 you can find some of the answers you require here

 it will need very limited scripting for you to achive a couple of the things your asking for and you get to learn a little along the way ;)

Oh trust me I know that I SHOULD and COULD learn how to script if I want the work. But like I said I work 50 hours a week and have 13 credit hours plus homework AND a girlfriend. So any computer time is spent working on my CTI SectorLink mission which is a lot of work getting ALL 15+ scripts to work together (i.e. I test, find a bug, then as Mando or Spooner for help).
