Javier Fernandez's new Carrier pack

<< < (2/11) > >>

Orion:
Only once per cat per flight?  That sounds odd to me.  Wonder why...

Voodoo:
Yeah, I ran into exactly the same problem when I did the steam effects for the default carrier, Orion.

If the steam effect is given a lifetime, once the effect has expired, it just doesn't trigger again. At least not on the same attachpoint.

On the other hand if you make the effect run continuously, it triggers, stays on until you try triggering it again at which point the effect stops, and immediately does trigger again.

I just don't know enough about the effects engine to know why it works like this. Be nice if someone could explain it though.

Pop:
only works in single p;layer, correct?

Orion:

I wonder how the default effects avoid that behaviour...  Maybe someone should go study them :P.

It only works as AI :P.  You need to use the SDK or 3rd party software if you want to be able to use it in any flight :P.

I'm currently working on a mission to get the carrier working in multiplayer (see here: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=2224), and I've only got a few more things to do and it'll be released.  I'd expect it to be ready in the next month or so ;).

skimmer:
I gotta give this a try. It looks great and Im hoping that the Flight1 UT2 product doesnt interfear with the ships. I know it does interfear with the ai.carriers1 package. Thanks for the dwnload Voodoo. ;D
