Post subject:  Need help with offsets - HDFirearm
First off, Hi. I'm new on the forum (I know it's not the good topic for introduction, Exalion and everyone will flame me... So I was just making a quick introduction)

:roll:

So here's the problem: This gun, wich I call the Little Friend, Has such of a random Offsets. I followed every HDFirearm tutorial I could find, even this http://www.datarealms.com/wiki/index.php/Offsets, and I didn't got anything. The thing is that the gun only works with a good placement on one side, and changes now and then. I know I shoulden't post my first mods, but it's just to make me learn :grin: .

:???:

So, here's the gun
Image

Here's the code

Code:
AddAmmo = Magazine
   InstanceName = Magazine LittleFriend
   Mass = 1
   HitsMOs = 0
   GetsHitByMOs = 0
   SpriteFile = ContentFile
      FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/Pistols/MagPistol.bmp
   FrameCount = 1
   SpriteOffset = Vector
      X = -3
      Y = -3
   EntryWound = AEmitter
      CopyOf = Dent Metal
   ExitWound = AEmitter
      CopyOf = Dent Metal
   AtomGroup = AtomGroup
      AutoGenerate = 1
      Material = Material
         CopyOf = Military Stuff
      Resolution = 2
      Depth = 0
   DeepGroup = AtomGroup
      AutoGenerate = 1
      Material = Material
         CopyOf = Military Stuff
      Resolution = 3
      Depth = 1
   DeepCheck = 1
   JointStrength = 200
   JointStiffness = 1
   JointOffset = Vector
      X = 0
      Y = -3
   DrawAfterParent = 0
   RoundCount = 100
   RTTRatio = 0
   RegularRound = Round
      CopyOf = Round SMG
   TracerRound = None

AddDevice = HDFirearm
   InstanceName = Little Friend
   GetsHitByMOs = 1
   SpriteFile = ContentFile
      FilePath = LittleFriend.rte/MyNewImage.bmp

   AtomGroup = AtomGroup
      AutoGenerate = 1
      Material = Material
         CopyOf = Military Stuff
      Resolution = 2
      Depth = 0
   Magazine = Magazine
      CopyOf = Magazine LittleFriend
   RateOfFire = 1000
   FullAuto = 1
   ShakeRange = 30
   JointOffset = Vector
      X = -3
      Y = 2
   ReloadTime = 4000
   SpriteOffset = Vector
      X = -10
      Y = -5
   JointOffset = Vector
      X = -7
      Y = 2
   SupportOffset = Vector
      X = 0
      Y = 1


Yeah, it's a very noobish code, and I must credit Lord Tim for the good part of it :wink:

Yeah, maybe one day I'll be part of the known moders. :) (Lord Tim, Winterous, Divix and everyone else... Sorry if I forgot you I just don't want to loose too much time with this.)

You have two JointOffset code snippets in your gun's code. The second one is probably better. Take out the first one. The rest of the offsets look fine.

EDIT: Directed at OP's code. Dunno about second post's.

You are kinda contradicting yourself there, Gotcha! is a great modder.
as far as i know, he started modding this year and he already has a huge pack.
I however Don't have a huge pack, or any Great mods for That matter, and I have been modding since B11.

That's uh, really flattering dude.
I still haven't touched an actor yet, I've only done weapons.

Anyway, offsets are a ♥♥♥♥♥ to do, and when you turn around they move 1 or 2 on the x axis (that's really annoying, needs to be fixed), but to work them out you just need to fiddle.
I think I'd be classified as an awesome offset-er on these forums, noone seems to have the patience to do them well.
But some things don't make much sense, like, for example, the 'magazine offset' variable, it does nothing that I've observed, and you have to change the magazine's sprite offset instead.
