Ok, after a little script reading and some info from Kc, I have finally created a manned working flak88 in CoD2 SP.

1. First we need to create a script_vehicle. Now, you can give it one of two models

key: model

value:

"xmodel/german_artillery_flak88"
or
"xmodel/german_artillery_flak88_nm"

Also, give it these keys and values.

"script_flak88" "1"
"script_flaktype" "tank"
"script_shootai" "1" (if you want them to shoot AI, this includes the player)
"script_shoottanks" "1" (if you want it to shoot tanks)
"script_team" "axis"
"vehicletype" "flak88"



2. Now for the Actors. The flak88's can run with just one person, I believe. The normal amound is 5. These can be any AI, as long as they are german. I have only tested with 5. Give them each this key and value:

"script_flak88" "1"

Now, check spawner and forcespawn on each of them. Once they are laid near the flak88, simply select the flak88 and then the actor and press W. This will autoconnect them. Do this for every AI, except make sure you connect THE FLAK88 TO THE AI!!!


3. Trigger. Now, make a Trigger multiple, texture it with trigger, and give it this.

"script_flak88" "1"

You should NOT connect the trigger to the flak gun. Just this alone will trigger the guys to spawn and jump on the gun.

4. Script. This is the easy part...

You got to add this line before the load::main();

maps\_flak88::main("xmodel/german_artillery_flak88_nm");

I'm using the model xmodel/german_artillery_flak88_nm, but the other option is xmodel/german_artillery_flak88



main()
{
maps\_flak88::main("xmodel/german_artillery_flak88_nm");
maps\_load::main();

level.player takeallweapons ();
level.player giveWeapon("m1garand");
level.player giveWeapon("thompson");
level.player giveWeapon("fraggrenade");
level.player giveWeapon("smoke_grenade_american");
}

And there you have it.

Can someone test this for me? I'm too lazy to make sure I didn't miss something small :P

Updated spelling mistake...

}

And there you have it.

Hold on, we are working on a possible script_origin and the air value for the flak type. But this tut will work. Just don't post it yet.

Ryan

Nevermind, I couldn't get it to work.

This tutorial is finished (sorry for the other posts, this tut has been confirmed to work though).

i have a question:

I followed it and it works but i have one question: how can i make the flak just shoot to an direction, so not on an enemy, myself ore a tank.

Connect script_origins to them, that makes them shoot at the script origin.

Also make SURE that script_shootai and script_shoottanks are BOTH 0 and I have mine set to script_flaktype tank.

And if you havent, try a script_accuracy (percentage of 100%)

Get back to me either way, thanks!

So:

Grab an script origin and position it where to shoot to
then link the flak to the script_origin and its done?

Yup,

Did it work?

not here

Doenst work for me. Any other idea's?
