Hello,

I would like to put a Fambaa in my card , but despite all my efforts I don't manage to do it. Can you help me?

Thank you in advance for your help.

...what?

I'm thinking fambaa like the big pink shield, but then I see card and I get confused.

I believe card=map

Well what Cleb said makes sense and if so then perhaps this fambaa is a vehicle/prop/exoticsoldierguy in reference to modding. Most probably a vehicle is what I think but I don't know. If any of those are true then you can check out the FAQ at this link:

forums/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=13806

And you can check out the various subcategories pertaining to vehicles/props/soldiers and adding them to your map.

If none of this is true and I've gotten it all wrong and either this isn't what you want, or you've already tried the above and need further help then please elaborate so that we can understand your problem better

"Card" and "map" are synonymous in German. You'll see this often (Youtube videos of video games are one easy example). For the OP: "Map" is the word you're looking for. "Card" isn't used as "Karte" in English - "Card" is predominantly used for its "Ausweis" meaning (or so Google Translate would indicate).

oops sorry I wanted to say map (error with google translation)

I've tried to put it as a vehicle, and I even tried to put it as an object, but without results.

What were the steps you already took? Do you have everything you need to put in a fambaa?

This is what I have for the moment

lua script: Zero editor setting
first com_item_vehicle_spawn second com_item_vehicle_spawn

Is your vehicle listed in your side's odf file properly? Also, I've had a perhaps similar problem with vehicles not showing up, for me it has always been getting the right memory pools set up, though I am not sure if this fambaa needs anything extra there, just a thought. Also it's just a vehicle correct? The rest of the things on that side work?

I think that this Should be this It is a walker, right (its a vehicle with legs)? So you need to put that there so it will work.

Isn't a Fambaa simply an armedbuilding with a shield as weapon?

Oh wait I'm thinking of a kaadu...

He said something about wanting it to be a vehicle and it not working, and having it be an object and not working either, so maybe that could be part of the problem? Maybe it's not set up to be a vehicle or something like that.

That's exactly the point. The Fambaa from the BF2 assets uses the rare ClassLabel 'commandarmedanimatedbuilding', wich means that it is a CommandPost, a "turret" and has a standing anim, even though that anim is nowhere to be found. You'll have to place it in ZE like a regular CP.
If you wanted to turn it into a vehicle you'll need completely new animations for it and modify the ODF heavily, but it's possible.

okay, so what should I change ?

I found this topic for you, does it help at all?

forums/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=14339&hilit ... to+vehicle

Sorry, but it doesn't function

Because it is about turning a prop into a flyer, not an exotic command post into a walker.
You could take the ODF of a stock walker (propably ATAT because it already has 4 legs), change the GeometryName, modify the piloting sections, details like sound and of course the AnimationName. You'll also have to make new animations for the Fambaa.

I have already tried to change the ODF of ATAT, but without success.

Otherwise if it helps here is the error I get when I munge the map and here is the error report. What is strange is that I can't put a Tauntaun or a Kaadu in my map. Are these two problems linked?
