Sorry if I posted in wrong section of the forums!

I have created a new vehicle model for call of duty 2, but one question how do i make it instead of crusader, i mean its just to change the scripts with my custom models name, in the mapname.gsc also i was following a certain tutorial Tutorial * it said i need to combine all all of the model, but once i export call of duty 2 models they are not fully combined such as turret is not combined with body and body not with tracks, so its made of 4 pieces "Turret, Body, Tracks, Wheels"

my most biggest concern is that do i have to rig my model? or not? as i am making a singleplayer vehicle that i want to make for ally AI's and also one as a viewmodel "Player Controlable"


Thanks for your help!

Yes, you will need to create rigs, if your model can be based easily on a crusader, then all you need to do is find what rigs the crusader has (e.g j_turret) then just create and link the bone to the mesh, and the animations for the crusader will work. If not, you will have to make your own animations. :/

This is the same example for gun models, when you see gun models where the bolt and magazine moves, but it doesn't look right, this is because they have just linked up the bones to mesh, and not created their own animations, to create bones it isn't too hard, you just need to make sure you have the correct names :L
