Flak88mm acting like mg42

[Krane]

Ok, I want to "hack" the 88mm model to make it act like a mg42, like when u use it, it'll shoot like crazy instead of one shot at a time. Same bullets as the mg42, etc...

I'm affraid this is not possible coz the animations of the model, is it right?

Or maybe do the oposite way: get a mg42 and change the model in the tik for th 88mm...but this doesn't seems to work...

Help!

[jv_map]

I would try to do it the second way... but if you say it doesn't work....

[Krane]

Prob is, if I copy just the path/models...flak88_turret.skc part only, it crashes the game. So, I copied the animations part too and worked...I mean, it's shooting one bullet at a time...

Old answer for an old post.

Make a folder called models, then make another folder inside it called Projectiles

Copy this to notepad:

TIKI

scale 1.0 // Needs to be unnaturally large so it is visible
lod_scale 30
path models/ammo/bazooka_shell
skelmodel projectile_bazooka.skd

}

}
}

Save this as flak88shell.tik & put in the Projectiles folder.

Make another folder in the Models folder & call it statweapons.

Open notepad again & copy this:

Save this as flak88turret.tik & put it in statweapons folder.

Turn the models folder into a zip folder by using Winzip.
Then rename the new zipped folder to flak88.pk3 & then add it to your Main foler.

All flak88's should be useable.
