Coastal bunkers

[Bramtyr]

Any progress on getting coastal bunkers or shore batteries to work?

The stock coastal stuff is FUBAR. I noticed that one has the cfg pointing to another model.

I might fix this, as it's pretty easy, actually.

quote Jos:"Both fotos are taken in Flushing (Vlissingen) in Holland
there were 2 torpedotubes to protect the Westerschelde
Later in the war the batteries were changes to fire Spinne-
torpedos ( the topedos were guided by wire , at the end of
the torpedo there was a light so the operator could guide the
torpedo to the target)

On the Atlantik Wal they had a few bunkers that would fire torpedoes : equipped with a torpedo turret similar to that seen on most battleships, I've wanted to have a few of those.. imagine getting fired at by one !

Tater,

I am still interested in getting one of the bunkers or other land units to act as an inert smokepot, if I ever do get around to building that Wake island mod. Turns out someone has already modeled and skinned the light cruiser Tenryu, which should bring the workload down significantly.

The whole modeling and modding is pretty intimidating, i'm not even sure where to start. Any pointers?

BTW Interesting post, keltos!

S3D makes much of it quite easy.

In terms of the land-units, you want to make it a fixed, bombed out area, is that it?

You'll want to clone a ground unit, probably.

LEt me know what you're getting at, and I'll show you where to start. Make a thread about it, then walk others through so they can see it and perhaps get new ideas.

One cool thing about S3D is not just doing the modding, but seeing things frequently gives you new ideas

Tater,

So far I have been unable to clone a "Land unit". I have cloned subs, ships, snorkels, periscope but I can not seem to clone a "Land Unit". Any ideas would be appreciated. I can get the New unit to show in the mission editor and add it to the mission, but it always crashes while loading.
@Bramytr If I can get land unit cloned then I thing we will be one step into solving the problem which we discussed a long time ago. Problem being that if you make a unit smoke, every one in the game smokes. So we really need something cloned that will not affect others in the game.

Edit: I think I may have found the problem, but I will have to test to be sure. If it works I will go the next step.

I've cloned a few, no problems.
