Adding a seat to the back of the warthog

Post by augie doggy2 »

I nulled out the chaingun in the back of the hog, but I was wondering if I could add a side seat. Can I position a seat in the back of the hog the way I want to? Is this even possible?

you could but you would have to add a chunk to the warthog's mode and to the vehicle itself.
edit: here is a pic of what i got so far, once i can get it to look good i'll be able to expain all that i am doing. Sorry i know the picis dark but i'm short on time.

or he could change and reposition a boarding seat. to move it where you want is in the markers in the mode tag. camera, seat radii, and how he sits is in the vehi tag. use insolence.

Okay I got most of that. I changed the passenger boarding seat to a passenger seat (now two people can get in the side seat lol). But how to you position it with the markers? (I'm a noob)

I can get the coordinates correct, but I cannot enter the boarding seat that I moved to the back unless there is someone in the side seat. I tried making the boarding seat a warthog passenger seat to fix this, but now my biped just goes into the side seat (even though I changed the coordinates of the boarding seat). I think that the boarding seat that I changed into a passenger seat is now using the original passenger seat coordinates. Is there any way that I can forced this changed boarding seat to go back to my original plan for the coordinates?

Also, how can I make bipeds shoot out of my boarding seat that I made into a passenger seat? And: how do I position the camera correctly for the new seat in back?

Try playing around with the seat boxes in DotHalo.

You may need to add a second seat or something to go with the boarding seat. I'm not really sure. I think there's a seat adding tutorial somewhere on this site.

This is something I have actually tried. I set the gunner seat to a warthog_p and coulden't get the seat to roatate on the yaw axis. I may have just been doing something wrong. I dunno, I didn't try very hard though.

Post if you figure it out.
