Sorry if i've been making alot of posts in here lately, but how do you make a weapon that causes beams to shoot down from the sky? (a.k.a arial strike) Please do a step by step instruction


sorry, i've never done this sort of thing before

hmm... try searching orbital strike.

do you have the assets for any orbital strike droids that have been in packs (eg the convo pack)?
look around in those, and replace some lines in the odf files.

Actually, the shipped assets have an orbital strike asset in them already.

are the shipped assets the ones that come with mod tools? If so, were are they located?

yes, bf2modtools/assets contains all things that came with the game, and a bit more they didn't add.

I'm pretty sure there is not an orbital strike beacon in the BF2 assets, if there was, why would people need to make and release them?

Heres a link to a pre-made one.

Having something in the assets does not preclude someone rereleasing it as their own asset. Most of the time it's because there are simple changes made to it and other people don't want to do the changes (a la the R2-D2 assets we have, which multiple people have released "assets" for).

We do have assets for the orbital strike beacon; I know because I've made one from the assets before. However, I don't remember if it's from SWBF1 or SWBF2, and if you don't want the challenge/work of fixing up the beacon yourself there is nothing wrong with using someone else's work and giving them credit.
