My map Hoth: Escape is almost ready to go, but I still got two vital problems that keep me from releasing it:
I edited the AT-AT to handle like the SWBF1 one (and to have some passenger slots), but for some weird reason the chin blasters operate seperatly from the head:

Hidden/Spoiler:

Also, I tried forcing the game into first person mode, but this simply doesn't work: all ground vehicles remain in 3rd person. What did I forget here, or what did I screw up? This is my AT-AT odf:

From the looks of it, the weapon's aimer pitch limits allow your chin cannon to aim 30 degrees in the downward direction, which more or less matches what I'm seeing in the screenshot. If you want it to not move, you have to set the pitch limits and yaw limits for that weapon so they can't move. Then, it would be totally dependent on the head for aiming.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong about that, but I think that's all there is to it.

Code: Select all

//ForceMode          = "2"

This line is commented out. I forgot which value makes it first person, but this line needs to be uncommented to have any effect. It's one of the first things set under properties.

I had this exact problem. Here's the working code for the passenger positions:

//FirstPerson = "IMP\impATAT;imp_1st_cockpit_atat"

your should remove your //

Also, the chin blaster might function differently when you try to insert other seats. Guess it's non-fixable!

Posted: **Mon Aug 04, 2008 3:32 pm**

I already figured the passenger and the FP view problem myself

But one problem remains: the AT-AT's chin blasters keep acting seperately from the head..

EDIT: I feel so stupid now.. instead of posting my own odf I posted the stock one XD It's fixed now.
