Need Help With Super Battledroid Muzzleflash [Solved]

[MDPtoaster]

Hi, I'm nearly completed a big side texture upscaling project and I want to know how I give the default super battledroid his muzzleflash.
I'm also having trouble with the particle editor, so if that's what i need to use, can anyone just give me a file to plop into my cis folder to turn this headache off please?

You won't need Particle Editor. The solution is already in the stock assets. See this thread: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=28684

cis_weap_inf_sbdroidmuzzle.msh is already in my side assets, what do I do with it to make it work?

It is essentially the weapon model that you have to use. You edit the SBD's wrist blaster weapon ODF to reference this msh.

I never imagined it would be as simple as making "cis_weap_inf_wrist_blaster" look something like this:

Code: Select all

[WeaponClass]
ClassParent         = "com_weap_inf_rifle"
GeometryName        = "cis_weap_inf_sbdroidmuzzle.msh"


[Properties]
OrdnanceName        = "cis_weap_inf_wrist_blaster_ord"
GeometryName        = "cis_weap_inf_sbdroidmuzzle"


//FirePointName     = "hp_fire"

HUDTag              = "hud_cis_wristblaster"


ShotDelay           = "0.25"

As well as making "cis_weap_inf_wrist_trishot.odf" look like this:

Code: Select all

[WeaponClass]
ClassLabel      = "cannon"
GeometryName        = "cis_weap_inf_sbdroidmuzzle.msh"

[Properties]
AnimationBank       = "rifle"
GeometryName        = "cis_weap_inf_sbdroidmuzzle"

HUDTag              = "hud_cis_trishot"

and even making your "cis_weap_award_wrist_blaster.odf" look like this:

Code: Select all

[WeaponClass]
ClassParent         = "com_weap_award_rifle"
GeometryName        = "cis_weap_inf_sbdroidmuzzle.msh"

[Properties]
OrdnanceName        = "cis_weap_award_wrist_blaster_ord"
GeometryName        = "cis_weap_inf_sbdroidmuzzle"
//FirePointName     = "hp_fire"


HUDTag              = "hud_cis_wristblaster"

I never would've guessed it was that simple, thanks man and I hope this big slab of text helps anyone else that gets confused by this.
Don't forget to add those hud tags to the .odf or else the wrist blasters won't have hud icons

No problem! Don't forget about HiResGeometry(?) too for first person view.

Its been a little bit since I last munged, but I initially did that and I think it made the sbd hand go away for some reason.
