How do I remove the aimer and modify a scope?

Post by swado95 »

I've been wondering if I'm able to get rid of the aiming device in the game for my map so I can encourage the player to use the scope. Also how do I change the scope to like say an iron site can I just skin it?

For removing the aimer unless zooming use this code:

Code: Select all

ReticuleInAimingOnly = 1
As for the iron sights, it was discussed a while ago, if you use a texture you'll get top and bottom sights. There was a solution but it was incompletely answered and I myself had no idea what it was saying.

If you guide me to that form that would be great or give what you heard. As for the aimer where do I insert that code?

It goes in the weapon ODF.

And the solution was to make the zoom a third person view with the camera coordinates set to look down the length of the gun. But there's quite a few complications with doing that. It's largely impractical.

I wasn't thinking of making it zoom down the scope. I was thinking getting a picture of an Iron site and pasting it into the scope.

Also where do I find the scopes tga.

That wouldn't work, you would have 4 ironsights each inverted from the others position.

The biggest problem is the trouble with trying to align the ironsights with the camera angle and the 'theoretical reticule' (on top of the fact that no swbf2 weapon actually has ironsights). It would be a huge nightmare to make but its still possible.

Wouldn't you be able to just make a new mesh in XSI with nonquartered UVs?

I don't think there is a mesh for the scope, which is why that solution wasn't thought up earlier.

Sorry if I'm hijacking the thread once again but I personally am interested in the subject and I believe I am in a way helping to answer his question. Does this work in the way that you can set it up for first person only and if so how?

There are various .tgas. They ought to be projected onto something.

I never said there wasn't, I personally have never bothered to look as all that has been said contradicts the theory that there is a msh for it.

That's not remapped, that's exactly as it would be by default.
