[SCRIPT]Door opening script for F-14 variable wings
-
This is aimed at some scripting people as I am nearing completion on my F-14A Tomcat mod. What I need is basically a script which opens "door_pside_r" and "door_dside_r" at high speeds, so that the wings fold in just like in real life. @CamxxCore did this for my old replacement F-14D Tomcat, so perhaps you could take a look?
As a bonus, it would be cool if the boot (refueling arm) and door_pside_f (arresting hook) could be tied to a hotkey, so that those can easily be opened without having to go into a trainer menu or something. And last but not least, perhaps have an option to either have the wings work automatically (open at speeds of 200+) or manually. (Hotkey to open/close both of them, so you could also sweep them in when parking on a carrier or so).
If someone takes this up, hit me up via PM and I'll send the files.@Oskar @LeeC2202

@SkylineGTRFreak i request the same thing. but can't you use. the old script with this new model?
-
@FoxtrotDelta the old script incorperated some other stuff, I strictly want a script for the doors only...
-
@SkylineGTRFreak got it.
-
I can do this if @CamxxCore doesn't want to do it.
-
@SkylineGTRFreak @Oskar If possible,one for the B-1 as well pls ?
Before there were people doing these wings scripts everytime a new model with Variable-sweep wing,nowadays they were gone
-
@SkylineGTRFreak I can definitely do this man. If you just want identical functionality to the other script, I can just update it to be compatible.. And perhaps fix any pesky bugs that existed with it.
-
@Elope @CamxxCore This made me think, would it be possible to write sort of an universal script with an .ini file that simply let's you add new planes? That way there could be one script for all planes which would use variable wings.
I'd still like to have the otpion to open the other doors with a simple hotkey as well though...
-
@SkylineGTRFreak Yes! That would be the most ideal situation honestly. Something else that might work is if there is a unique bone/ dummy index on the model. it could probably be identified as compatible in that way. Would remove the need for an ini file.
-
@CamxxCore that'd be cool as well. Just a simply dummy in the hierarchy like "wing_script" or so?
-
@SkylineGTRFreak said in [SCRIPT]Door opening script for F-14 variable wings:
@CamxxCore that'd be cool as well. Just a simply dummy in the hierarchy like "wing_script" or so?
awesome idea. @CamxxCore would "wing_script" work? or does it have to be a dummy recognizable by the game?
-
@SkylineGTRFreak @FoxtrotDelta Yeah that should work. Just give it a unique name and I can use a native to check if it returns a valid index
-
@SkylineGTRFreak im making MIG 23 & 27 they can use this script as well if it works.
-
@CamxxCore top, that'd be really great
-
@SkylineGTRFreak @CamxxCore So an universal swipe wing script is coming
? Perfect
-
@SkylineGTRFreak Hey.. just wondering what your timeline is like as far as releasing your mod? How soon does the script need to be finished?
-
@CamxxCore May I ask when can you complete it? There is a new detailed model of tornado GR4 from dcs and it has same wings layout, i would love to use the script on that too,
-
@CamxxCore Well, it's pretty much finished apart from the script^^
-
@FoxtrotDelta Oooh... Well, Tornado GR4 and Tornado IDS do differ a little
But how did you get the model? I thought .edm files can't be imported
Edit: Oh wait, nvm. Probably the "old" model. (Which is still very good)
-
@SkylineGTRFreak it's a new model, wasn't me someone else extracted it. I do have doubts about the model, as if it's from dcs world or not. As there is no module out yet for tornado gr4 yet. But the link says dcs tornado gr4 german version
-
@SkylineGTRFreak The model.
-
@FoxtrotDelta Germany didn't even use the GR4, that's the british version... Seems like the one who uploaded it doesn't know his stuff
But i believe it's this one:
http://abload.de/img/screen_140617_2148312heuo.jpgEdit: yes, that's the one. It's an "old" Lock On model ported to DCS, which still looks quite good though.
I converted it to GTA San Andreas a few years back.
-
@SkylineGTRFreak i also have 2 Payware Versions FROM FSX. you can use any of these or fsx models if you want. you once said you wanted to do it. if no i shall do it myself. later. let me know if you need the model or models,
-
@FoxtrotDelta SkylineGTRFreak Ok can probably finish it today. Most of it is done
-
@CamxxCore Gr8 news. thank you so much!
