Basic Config.cpp files., Place here basic config files for newbies :P Options

[SGJackson]

Hi all!

I've made this post 'cause I took some config files from a tut and neither of any that I took worked..

So now, I'm asking YOU (dood that knows about config files) to place here the basic config files needed for an addon to work...

I was actually looking for the config to get a car into ArmA I... I have this one (witch doesn't work):

CODE

class CfgModels
{
    class default {};
    class Vehicle: default {};
    class Car: Vehicle {};
    class Jeep: Car {};
    class firstCar: Jeep {};
};


class CfgPatches
{
     class firstCar
     {
         units[] = {firstCar};
         weapons[] = {};
         requiredVersion = 1.0;
     };

};

class CfgVehicles
{

     class All {};
     class AllVehicles: All {};
     class Land: AllVehicles {};
     class LandVehicle: Land {};
     class Car: LandVehicle {};
     class Jeep: Car {};

     class firstcar: Jeep
     {                              
        displayName="HUMVEE REWORKED";     // Displayname in editor
        model= \firstcar\firstcar;    // our p3d model path
                  
        side=3;            // Its on the civilian side
        crew="Civilian2";    // The default driver are civilians
        maxSpeed=300;        // Max speed
        transportSoldier=0;     // Right now just driver, no cargo                                                                                  
      };
}

I may remark that this tutorial is made for OFP... dunno if there's any difference... but my firstcar.p3d doesn't appear under Civilian>Cars>HUMVEE REWORKED (or under any other drop-down menu)

Thanks to all!

Ok, I don't think you've set up the LODs correctly. Each LOD is essentially a different model. The yellow "ghost" model is just the lowest resolution LOD, so you can see the basic outline of the model when creating other LODs. To change between LODs you have to doubleclick them on the LOD panel.

If you've got stuff that's on the wrong LOD, you can cut/paste it as with any other program. Named selections will be preserved.

The "big" error is down to the positions of your driver entry points on the memory LOD. You should create a point called "pos driver" for the entry point, and "pos driver dir" close to it to show which direction the animation should play.
