How do you add the rear gun and rocket pods to the Pelican?

[xzodia]

I did change both of them (changed 'default to attack' and 'attack to default') But I had to change the hlmt's of the 'attack' variation that I had changed to 'default' to the rear gun and the rocket pods.

Now alls I need to know is how to relink them to the co-pilot seat <_<

how improper...

Okay guys, you are close here, but not quite. I did this a year ago.

Clone a vehc (Vehicle Collection) tag and rename it to "multiplayer\single_vehicles\pelican". Change the only dependency in it to the pelican. Then the vehc has a permutation. Set it to "attack".

Then it works perfectly. And the pelican will actually respawn.

Add it through the Netgame Equipment reflexive. Just don't hit floating or it will keep spawning as soon as it drops.

Don't do a Hlmt swap. So many other bugs could happen and it doesn't work perfectly. (Anyone remember the swaping elite helmets?)

Okay, my plugins are kind of outdated and I don't really understand where the bitmask you're talking about is at; could someone please post a picture of where you relink the rocket pods to the co-pilot. And FYI Lestafreak, I did spawn my pelican through the VEHC, so no, the way I did it was not improper, merely an anomaly in the normal matter of doing things.

Bump.

You can link the front gun to the passenger but not the rocket pods.
The rocket pods however can be fired by the pilot...

In order to have the rocket pods controlled by the pelican driver, do this...
*Entity v1.3.9 used in example*
1) Pop open your map in Entity and select the pelican rear gun in the vehicle tag.
2) Go to Meta Tools and select Meta editor.
3) Click the tools button and select Show......


4) Check "show all" and hit ok


5) Scroll down the list and find the second group of "Flags"
They should like like these...

Check bitmasks 10 and 11 and hit save. Thats all.

Awesome. <_< Thanks.
