you cant make them do wheelies...

but to make them have flaming tires, look in "Particle System", and look for something like "dirt kickup"... I dont know what its really called, but Ill look into it in a min... but then you want to swap it with "Flamethrower_Defoliant". and voila! you have flaming tires!

Im not sure you can make it "brighter", there's only one setting for screen brightness... other than that, edit the bitmap... that's the only suggestion I have...

Well I mean the intensity or a good RGB setting to make it look more bright. Was using the forest gulch bitmap for a night time fort mod. Not all that good with skinning etc

it's probably your router. do you have any port forwarding options?

you cant make them do wheelies...

but to make them have flaming tires, look in "Particle System", and look for something like "dirt kickup"... I dont know what its really called, but Ill look into it in a min... but then you want to swap it with "Flamethrower_Defoliant". and voila! you have flaming tires!
the underlined part is untrue i have seen a mod and a video where warthogs do wheelies and i want to make it do that and o ya how do u make hogs flip? well ur in them by pressing a button or sometin i know its possible cause ive played a mod where u can

you have to dramatically increse the hog acceleration, like set it to be how much full speed is or soemthing

no, you could just rotate the model... not the collision model tho. and then it would be in a permanent weelie... it's not possible otherwise, speed or not.

Try this...
Go into HMT and scroll to [vehi]Vehicle
Then click on either hog and set the settings to the following:

Top Speed Forward: 0.75
Top Speed Reverse: 0.2
Acceleration: 0.0028
Deceleration: 0.011
Left Turn Angle: 30
Right Turn Angle: -30
Wheel Blur: 1

Then save it and close the map, make your own server, and hop in a hog. Then just do donuts(keep turning hard left/right) for 5-10 seconds and you'll start popping wheelies. :D Have fun 8) :wink:

All you really gotta do is double the speed up to 0.5 then double the acceleration (no reference to post exact number...at school....going off of my memory). Basically...I edited the hog to double all its numbers and set top for 0.5 or just doulbed it. Forgot, but it does a nice quick wheelie for you. Also note that top speed possible for hog is 1
