[TEC]New Inovation!

[Xantrokoles]

After over an hour work on the 88mm deck gun from SH3 for SH4, I recognized, that both the 105mm and the 88mm gun have almost the same 3d model

Thinking of some stupid porns I get an Idea:

I have seen some pictures and movies (i.e. Erich Topp on Youtube) where there are a couple of ppl standing arround the gun during shooting at targets.
(Ahhhhh this is the reason for having 7 Crew members in stock SH4 for the gun)

I did some tests and here is the result on an VIIB:



You see some bummers
If there takes someone stock in it, let me know.

Good question

-> The Leader with the until now infrequent working binocular and the two shooters are moving, the rest is static and gaping.

wish we had one loading....

[Xantrokoles]

Mikhayl.. I guess you did it in some minutes

But I have to correct:
I have not the 105mm model.
This one is from GWX 2.1 and converted for SH4.

But your deck is Über; which skin is it and is it the IXD2?

And it wold be cool to see the caboose hatch open and crew members giving the shooters ammo

[Xantrokoles]

Again the pro GWX team
It has no lightmaps I think?
But I said it, this subs looks great anyway!

The crew was just a good guessing and it costs me less time than getting the animation with the deckgun, cause I first wanted to use the ones from Sh3.

I imagine this is possible for the Fleet boats in SH4? It'd be really cool to see this.

[Xantrokoles]

We can't get away with loosing you here...

I guess Ref's post will be a large post

If I only loved fleet boats
You can set there 100 man and it would look empty on the deck

Nice! I always felt that with the deck gun was missing something...err someone.
Now we have gunners.

It would be nice to see something similar for us fleet boats, How to do that?

[Xantrokoles]

In the gun.dat you see add under the main chunbk you should have:

-Node - WM3 <--here you set his position
----Label - WM3

----Controller - CharacterInstantiation
--------Properties - CharacterInstantiation <-- the members name (WM3)

----Controller - StateMachineCtl
--------Properties - StateMachineCtl <-- the members moves (i.g. WCS for watch moves)

Submarine UPC file

[UserPlayerUnit 1.Compartment 7.CrewMemberSlot 3]
ID=CrewMemberSlot_DGunC2
NameDisplayable= Deck Gun Crew
Type= Crewman
WatchIndex= 0
IDLinkCrewMember= NULL
WatchCrewMemberSlot3D= WM3@slot_M01 <-- WM3@slot M01 (or M02 for stern DG)
BattleStationsCrewMemberSlot3D= WM3@slot_M01
WatchAccessoriesForAdding3DObjects= Binoclu_WCS <- give him a binocular if you want
WatchAccessoriesForSubtracting3DObjects= NULL
BattleAccessoriesForAdding3DObjects= NULL
BattleAccessoriesForSubtracting3DObjects= NULL

When you have to add this crew member slot, then you need entries at the bottom of the file:

[UserPlayerUnit 1.FunctionalSubsystem 30]
ID= CrewDeckGun
NameDisplayable= Deck Gun
FunctionalType= CrewMembersGrouping
IDLinkFunctionalSubsystemSlots= CrewMemberSlot_DGunL, 0,CrewMemberSlot_DGun1C1, 0,CrewMemberSlot_DGunL2, 0,CrewMemberSlot_DGun2C1, 0, 0,CrewMemberSlot_DGun1C2,
0 <- this code has to fit with the entry before.
