I'd like to make a jettrooper with a heavy-rocketlauncher. I made an .odf, and a .req, what else do I need to do. I asume I would need to make a special side with teh jettrooper in it, and munge it, but could anyone help me on what files I would need and what to do?

Here is the odf for the trooper, do I need anything else?

Code: Select all

[Properties]
MaxHealth           = 300.0

JetPush             = "8.0" //The constant push given while the jet is enabled (20 is gravity)
JetAcceleration     = "30.0" //Acceleration while hovering.
JetEffect           = "rep_sfx_jetpack"
JetType             = "hover"
JetFuelRechargeRate = "0.12" //Additional fuel per second (fuel is 0 to 1)

Thanks.

I've seen tutorials on how to make sides, but they don't include the exact specifics.

Well, first you'd need to get the unit's mshs and tgas, along with all the weapon odfs and mshs and tgas. Did you copy over the effects and munged folders from rep too?

You need to also add your unit to your side's .req file and load it, your unit, in the lua if you want to test it (duh). Remember to take just what you need from the the stock rep folder or any other folder. Also remove any unnecessary lines from your side's .req file.

K, thanks.

I messed something up there, so, would I be able to make the odf and req, put it in the normal rep file, add it to the rep.req, and then munge everything?

Thanks
