| Post subject: | How do device offsets work? |
I'm making a simple weapon mod, but for some reason I can't figure out how to set up the offsets for the magazine and weapon sprite, muzzle offset, etc. Can someone explain what negative and positive integers for the follows offsets will do, or tell me where I can read about this? For a device: SpriteOffset StanceOffset MuzzleOffset EjectionOffset For a magazine: SpriteOffset JointOffset (What is this?) ParentOffset (What is this?) Normally I don't have problems with offsets, but recently I haven't been able to figure out how to accurately adjust offsets without loading the game, buying a weapon, quitting, editing the mod, and repeating the cycle. |

That IS how you do offset, man. Set them to ridiculous values, see where stuff goes, then find out from there. |

I was really hoping for an answer that wouldn't have me loading CC, testing a gun, then quitting and editing something, just to start the process all over again. I'm sort of obsessive about detail and it would take forever for me to get a magazine lined up correctly with a gun, or a shell exit point to be set just so. |

AddActor = AHuman CopyOf = Soldier Heavy PresetName = Weapon Tester AddInventory = HDFirearm CopyOf = YOURGUN Add that below your weapon's .ini file, then load CC and start the actor viewer. Press menu + up to reload your .ini file. |

or, for what they do, assuming you can use logic (all are from the SpriteOffset) SpriteOffset - instructions to the game of how to move the sprite so the origin is at the center, basically the images dimensions / 2 StanceOffset - how your actor holds it, offsetting the jointoffset from the arm's "shoulder" MuzzleOffset - where the muzzle is EjectionOffset - where the shells come out mag stuff: SpriteOffset - as above JointOffset - where the joint on the magazine is. ParentOffset - where to place the joint on the parent (gun) |

I tried the actor thing and apparently reloading the INI only reloads the actor's data, and not the gun's data. Bummer :[ |

Nevermind. I had a different ammo file and so I stupidly thought it would reload the ammo.ini file as well as the devices.ini. MY BAD, THANKS GRIF |
