As for vehicle carrying, we know it requires scripting but we don't have the required script. the closest it gets is to use coldsnap's(which we don't have) but again, the fact it's restricted to "landing pad" is a problem. we'd rather make it so it chooses "closest ground vehicle" or something like that. I'm currently working on trying to design a vehicle carrier and a ground heavy tank but sadly, it's hard to draw it the way I see it in my mind.

so if anyone has a pickup script or can make/get us one, it'd be appreciated. Else it'll end up remaining host only using dev mode.

Someone made a better one, I even think he released an app to write the pickup script to make sure everyone could use it. It should be over at gbxforums.

Oh. Well then thanks I guess I'd scrolled over the forums abit too quickly.
The script is pelican only though as it looks...hm.Looks nice for pelicans however so I'll forward it to terrel.

Im pretty sure the script can be edited to let it, as example, be used by your condor

I don't think using it for the condor is wise but yeah, I guess editing it is simple once you have the basic made... just have to read it abit.

It has great potential, but as of now it's too boxy.

OpsY · Post by **OpsY** » Thu Jul 12, 2007 6:36 am

Hard to add polies just for the sake of adding some. Name custom vehicles that are NOT Boxy. Chopper? Draco? hovercraft? Hugeass jets?Once skinned it'll do just as the others and will look fine.

Moved...read the rules. If it doesn't have a download, post in the Pictures forum.

Man, you can just use this pickup script:

(sleep_until (volume_test_objects <trigger> <object>)5)
(objects_attach <condor_name> <seatname for cargo> <warthog> none)

OpsY · Post by **OpsY** » Thu Jul 12, 2007 7:35 pm

We'll see how it goes and far I'm concerned we ain't there yet. This thread is actually Condor related and until we have anything else, well that's it.

I would absolutely love a seat in the bottom of the craft where there is a trap door that opens when you enter the seat, there is a small pile of bombs sitting next to you, and you are the gunner (as in you drop bombs on enemie s down below). That would be 1337!
I could see that shape of a craft being better used as a bomber than a fighter. I would think of a fighter as much more slim, less boxy.

Hard to fit on Condor but I keep track of the idea

I'm updating first post with renders of the textured product.

Take note, it's the first time I texture something Ever... and it'S not final.

Hotrod · Post by **Hotrod** » Tue Jul 17, 2007 7:15 am

The textures aren't that bad, but it might help if you could find somebody that's really good at skinning and ask them to help.

OpsY · Post by **OpsY** » Tue Jul 17, 2007 8:28 am

Yeah I'll see bout that... I'm fixing some stuff here and there on the exterior and starting the inside.
