Melee Attacks Underwater

Fierfek · Post by **Fierfek** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 11:17 am

Are weapons set as which type they can be? I have the melee attack from the BFX assets, but I want it to be a primary weapon, not a secondary. What do I need to switch to do so?
What I'm trying to do is get a melee attack that can be used while underwater. And please don't say "just don't use water".

remove this line:
WeaponChannel = 1
for it to be a primary weapon

No, I know how to do that. That's not what I mean. When I make the weapon a primary weapon in the unit's odf, the game crashes on spawn.

then you should have probably asked for that
and you could maybe post your errorlog to make troubleshooting easyer..

you have an overload of Severity 3's in their

Code: Select all

Message Severity: 3
C:\Battlefront2\main\Battlefront2\Source\DisplaySoldier.cpp(349)
DisplaySoldier 'imp_inf_officer' failed to find animmap impofficer_

does impofficer animation exist?

Xavious · Post by **Xavious** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 3:07 pm

The game can't find the impofficer animations. Do you have the animations files for impofficer from the imp/munged folder in your side's munged folder?

Fierfek · Post by **Fierfek** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 3:09 pm

I haven't edited the munged folder at all. I added a few things, but didn't edit or take anything away, so it should still be there.
I copied over the animations for BFX to my solderanimationbank - would that do anything?

Xavious · Post by **Xavious** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 3:10 pm

Check to make sure they're there anyways - you never know.

Fierfek · Post by **Fierfek** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 3:33 pm

I have 3 files called impofficer in my imp/muged folder - an anims file, zaabin file, and zafbin file.

Xavious · Post by **Xavious** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 3:36 pm

On second thought, try just removing the AnimationName line and see if that does it.

Fierfek · Post by **Fierfek** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 8:10 pm

That didn't fix it.
What I'm really trying to do is get a melee attack (primary or secondary) working underwater. How do I get this working with the BFX com_weap_melee_attack?

I assume when you say "melee attack" you mean to say the exact opposite (that is an attack that is not a melee attack). Since you indicate that it was set up as a secondary weapon, it was most likely an emitter with a melee animation (melee attacks can't be secondary weapons), and as a result it will not work underwater.
