[SCRIPT]Vertical take off for Space Shuttle+booster detach
-
Heyho, I am working on a Space SHuttle mod, but I find it too be boring if it just acted as a normal plane. That's meeeeeeeeh.
So, I was wondering if someone perhaps would be able to help me out with a script here. I was thinking of making the SPace Shuttle a "simple" vehicle on its own and the solid rocket booster+fuel tank a seperate vehicle. Both could be attached to each other and placed in an upright position, then launched. After a certain height, the boosters would release and simply fall down. Probably wouldn't be 100% realistic, but pretty nice looking. I have a lot more ideas, as I already have a model of the ISS for example, but for now I think that the launch sequence shouldn't be that hard to script.
-
i was working on the same thing. mine is russian though, yours american i presume?
-
@SkylineGTRFreak i have made my boosters as , Bonnet so it falls off very quickly when i open the bonnet in mid air
looks awesome too. but the main thing is i want realistic afterburners and gas exhuasts for it. i want to give it massive ground disturbance. so it will take me time till i can release it , its going to be awesome! try the bonnet trick.
-
@FoxtrotDelta Yep, the Nasa series. I already had a Buran as well, but I only touched up the model back for GTA San Andreas
And yea, I had the same idea with the bonnet hahaha. But the problem is, everytime you fix the vehicle, it reappears, so that's meh...
-
@SkylineGTRFreak i seldom fix aircraft. as they seldom get broken. anyways . good luck it can be a great mod. i don't want to rush mine though. i have plenty of other mods pilled up at the moment. i will take my time, till i reach the rocket shuttle mod . probably 6-7 weeks.
-
@SkylineGTRFreak this is what i am working on. russian rocket + russian shuttle
gas exhaust plus ground disturbance, is a problem right now. does yours look any similar? which nasa rocket are u using?
-
@FoxtrotDelta Mine is this combo:
I have the models, but I am working on the Shuttle interior before converting
-
@FoxtrotDelta Is that the Buran? This experimental Shuttle? Because it's in the Technik Museum Sinsheim here in Germany
@SkylineGTRFreak Musst auchmal dahin gehen. Sehr interessant
-
@Kwebbl Taking modding all the way to the space huh? Been playing TBoGT all day. Came online and saw this.
Can't wait!
-
@Akila_Reigns Can you actually recommend it? I got 20 bucks right now and don't know what to get lol
-
@Kwebbl I have the Complete Edition, which is $30.

It has IV and EFLC.But if you just want EFLC,
http://store.steampowered.com/app/12220/
$20There are texture and graphics mods which make IV better than V, but without them, the game looks like shit.
-
@Kwebbl war ich schon läääääääängst
-
@SkylineGTRFreak Auch schonmal aufm Brazzeltag? Da fahren se mit dem Brutus rum. Bebt richting wenn der runterschaltet.

@FoxtrotDelta @SkylineGTRFreak
So,no one's interested in the ancient chinese "space shuttle"huh? :D
-
@Elope kite mod ey. may be one day. when zm3 supports cloth vertice id and data.
-
@FoxtrotDelta You didnt get it lol,ancient chinese strappec fireworks to the chair and tried to reach the space with the firework rockets
-
@Elope oOOOOOO. i didn't notice. the fireworks. i think many would have died trying lol.
-
@Kwebbl Ne, da war ich noch nicht. War nur einmal in dem Museum aufm Rükweg aus Italien. Ansonsten ist das n bisschen weit weg find ich (von Hamburg aus).
@FoxtrotDelta If you don't mind, I wanted to do the soviet OK-GLi. Looks more or less the same as the Shuttle, but has some differences and was able to fly like a plane, since it was only a testbed and never reached space.
-
@SkylineGTRFreak said in [SCRIPT]Vertical take off for Space Shuttle+booster detach:
OK-GLi.
No problem, its yours. Have fun
-
@FoxtrotDelta Great, I will make this in tandem with the AN-225 then
-
@SkylineGTRFreak your call. it shall be great i think. you have the model right? it doesn't have the interior. cockpit etc.
-
@FoxtrotDelta of the OK-GLI? Yes, I have made for GTA San Andreas mod. You can use it for the Buran as well if you want
