Pretty big file and its illegal.. but its useful

Also what I like about it is, it doesnt crush you immediatly.

My point, as it almost always tells you you killed yourself, so you have to wait ten seconds before you can even spawn again. And when you spawn, seeing as how its at random, who knows how far away youll end up. O_o


EDIT: Where can you find it? Incyclopedia? I cant seem to find it.

Another problem fix I've definitely posted before and yet always seems to get lost in history. Here's one for that big important tut of yours:

To make a vehicle that is spawned by a weapon NOT kill you as soon as it spawns, simply change the values for the floats for "first person offset" in eschaton. More accurately: Open eschaton and scroll down to the weap tag. Open it, then choose the pistol. Depending on what plugins you are using, you want to look for either "reflexives-->triggers-->floats" or "projectile-->floats," something like that. Scroll down and you will come to first person offsets for x, y, and z coordinates. adding to the x coordinate moves the spawn point of your projectile/vehicle forward, in front of your biped, subtracting moves it back behind; changing the y value moves it left or right; and of course the z value alters elevation. So, change the spawn point to be far away from your biped, and the vehicle will not kill you when spawned.

...are not the method Brimstone was asking about, as he clearly did not mention using any gametypes to spawn stated vehicles. READ FIRST AND EVALUATE, THEN POST.

[Pielogist]

he said to naturally spawn them, i thought that means that the vehicles are just there when you start the game?

[Kayar]

Yes, exactly, they are there when you start the game without using gametypes, that's how the mod he is talking about works. Are you dense?

To make a vehicle that is spawned by a wea....

GODDAMNIT YOU GOT IT FIRST

What Kayar said. Just change where the projectile spawns.

You can also go in matg to swap the default vehicles.

The matg swap goes hand in hand with the scnr swap, for fully CSS vehicle swap mods. Like the Tanks/Scorpions mod. As according to Taxi.

EDIT: Where can you find it? Incyclopedia? I cant seem to find it.

No, not in Incyclopedia. I suppose you could ask Al Capone to pass you a map with the tag in it..

Actually its in their I just extracted it, Also you can pretty much make any vehicle spawn with a simple swap
Well, its a weapon. What happens is, it becomes your third weapon like a flag, except that you can actually switch between them. Its like the bubble shield.

I did not see him say the words 'without using gametypes'

Recently, I came across a mod called 20 CE vehicles.

To all appearances. this is a demo map, that has had CE vehicles imported into it, and then naturally spawned.

How, was this accomplished? I have extensive experience with bitmaps, shaders, and the positioning and spawning of scen.

Vehicles though, I have relatively little experience with. (Relatively as far as spawning them)

Kayar, leave him alone.

Pie, drop it.
