MAF (Mechanized Assault Flyer) released see Assets forum

Post by FragMe! »

This is not truely a WIP but more of a gathering of resources from BF1 and adjusting it so it works in BF2.
I am also not sure if anyone has done this already, I did a search but couldn't find anything.

Anyway this is the The Mechanized Assault Flyer (MAF) was a piloted, multi-purpose gunship used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. As mentioned I am just bringing it over from BF1 the biggest challenge is getting the correct sounds or substituting appropriate ones. I may make a sound file that can be called in the LUA. You do get the sounds but only if you load the spa sound file but that buggers other things up escpecially if you use it on a graound map. All the animations work so that is good.

Here is a picture of it

As well a short video of it in action. Sorry about some of the flying the AI can't fly worth a hill of beans.

Nice, very nice. looks like a combination of a LAAT and whatever that CIS commandpost flyer is called.

I can't recall seeing this in bf1 though, not in any mods/maps either.

Anyway a new ship with animations and new sounds is always good :D

I actually never saw it in BF1 (not that my bad memory can tell anyway)
It is fun to fly as you can stop in mid-air as well as fly backwards, so you can "park" and destroy the enemy :P

As for the Zero-G it is still going, stuck on the texturing part now, it will show up in my new map both in a conquest mode
and a hunt mode where everyone is flying one on both sides sort of like a Red vs Blue free for all above an asteroid.

It was in Spira: Besaid as the airship. There aren't any animations, but if I recall correctly the firepoints and view positions are all set up right.

It was in BF1, though the only map I can think of that had it was Bespin platforms and kashyyyk islands.

Ah right, I remember now. but I didn't know it was from bf1. I do remember it from bf1 now, it was in some maps and some tatooine modmap. Did it fire beams or something? I remember trying to jump on it but falling through.

The MAF in the BF2 assets works fine as well, you just need some weapon ODFs.

Yeah, I'm glad someone's working on it. I got frustrated with it and never converted it over.

I recall seeing it in Bespin Platforms one in the Conversion pack, but when I tried to fly it, it was too close to the screen so I couldn't see where I was steering.

Anyway, Glad you're converting it, FragMe!, the more spaceships we have in here the better.
