Amazingly I understood that. I always wondered where 0,0 lies on the head piece.

EDIT:
I'ma stop hijacking this thread now as suggested earlier

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=13692

i did too... i thought 0,0 was in the center..




this changes my whole perspective on things, thanks.

It's one of the weirder quirks of CC... as far as I can tell, when you spriteoffset something, 0,0 is at the upper left corner. But if you don't give it a spriteoffset, it defaults to the center. I'm not sure offhand if defining 0,0 makes it the upperleft corner or center.

You create the sprite offset first which defines both where it rotates, and where you base all the other offsets from, So if you went from the top left, and went to -12,-15, that point would become 0,0. Then if you made it a gun, and said that the Offset was 0,0. It would be at the -12,-15 pixel of the sprite, from the top left.

I don't know if this was brought up or not but do you guys remember the vanilla flak cannon for the Coalition?

Why don't you guys just make the bolters shoot those except have them explode on contact? That seems to solve the whole screen going back and forth thing.

Sorry to bring this up if you guys already fixed it.

I drag and drop DA.rte in my cortex command folder.
I put it where all the other .rte file are.

and i get this error when I run the game.

anyone? please help.
thanks

that wouldnt be a bad idea,duo9ace except the explosion is a bit onstentatious, and the fact that it's a cannon, rather than a rocket.


I have been playing around with a modified coalition rocket launcher. it works pretty much how it's supposed to. offsets are kinda funny though. and my replacement sprites are kinda lame. but oh well. feel free to steal and fix. credit goes to Ivan.

So I tested your bolter out and I think I like the automatic one better so could you make one automatic for the normal bolter?

Specs:

Good penetration, no annoying "bouncing of walls and armor and killing me" action

Problems:

I think it goes through terrain way too easily

is it possible to fix this without sacrificing penetration power?

ok duo9ace, but to balance the rapidfire, i've lowered the ROF to 350, you can change it back if you want, it was 500

not sure about the terrain thing, i kinda like it, it's not too much, and it's not too little. except for the heavy version, that's just sick.

maybe changing the weight of the projectile down? or giving it slightly less Air blast particles per minute, say down to 8500, or a combo of the two.

i like it how it is, but feel free to change it for yourself, let me know if it plays well, i might modify it...

Here.... This might be helpfull for people.

Someone please do these, and lable them correctly, not as 2 letter rte's....

Well, I definitely think that ivan should sprite for Data.

Ditto. And what was the point of that...unique solo?




Its perfect! Now how would I adapt the bullets and everything to the Ivan Bolter sprites?

People could also start working on that armor setting too...

Ah, sorry that's my bro's recording, I meant to post some space marine noises from dow. Lol he's pretty terrible huh?

not too hard, Duo9ace, thats basically what i did, only i had like 3 different versions of ivan's, bobba_fett's, and another one that all looked the same... so i changed it so i could recognise it...

but all you'd need to do is copy ivan's sprite to the file and change the Framecount back to 1

the files i used were modified versions of ivan's ones, they should still have the same name.

Edit: edited for grammar

also i'm not too sure about the bullets. i had to lengthen the ones i used due to accuracy issues. but they're really not that noticeable.

Yea, I never tried modding before but I think I can do this one maybe. Would the framecount be in setting.ini or something?
