PUBLIC RELEASE NOW AVAILABLE !


To celebrate [GT] Clan's participation in Battleweek 5 the SaturnLabs Assault Armchair is now available to anyone who wants it.


To [GT] Clan who have downloaded it already: I have updated the msh and included new shadow geometry, you may want to download this new version using the link below.


* IMPORTANT NOTE * I am releasing this as-is, I am not providing support for it. You use it like any other vehicle. It requires some X-Wing assets to be present (lasers, engines) . For your convenience, I reprint the READ_ME.txt below.

*****************************************

READ_ME.txt

It's not easy taking on a despotic regime that controls the Galaxy. But you're a part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor.

So if you're going on a suicide mission against the Sphere Of Fear, you may as well do it in style.


Fast. Sleek. Heavily armed. Nice and comfy.

Announcing a brand new vehicle from your friendly neighbourhood polygon pimp to celebrate the GameToast [GT] Clan's participation in Battleweek 5.


WE ARE THE MODS. AND NOW WE PWN YOU

==========================================
******************************************

SaturnLabs presents the Assault Armchair (SLAA).

This is released as-is (unsupported, basically) with new geometry and texture by Saturn_V.

Set it up in a custom side. I have included a .req file to go in the REQ directory, and don't forget to add a call in the <custom side>.req file

The odf is based on the X-Wing, so the chair has the same performance values.

The HUD / map icon isn't very good, if you want to design a new one feel free. If it's good, post a pic and I'll include it in the pack.

**IMPORTANT NOTE**
===================
IF YOUR MAP CRASHES WHEN YOU GET IN THE CHAIR:

First, always use SPTest to debug your map and find out what the probable cause of the error is.

The map I developed and tested this on had an X-Wing in it. The chair requires some X-Wing assets to be present (eg, the lasers and engine glow) so either copy these assets to the custom side too, or put an X-Wing in the ReadDataFile unit load-outs in the mission lua (do this for CW era too). You don't have to have the X-Wing appear in the map, just call one in the lua.


Don't know how to add a vehicle to your map?

Sheesh! Why did you even download this? Check out this mapping tutorial first: http://www.saturnlabs.net/Tutorial_Lava ... ge_00.html

With big thanks to the GameToast crew for tools, help and inspiration,
without them this wouldn't have been made.

ok thanks i'd love to,um i was wondering if you could put 2 armchairs together
for a couch,and is it alright if we retexture them so the imps and reb's can have different color
armchairs...

thanks

ok thanks,i might make a mod called "Armchair Wars" hopefully with other household stuff
a spacebattle would probably be my first if i were to do it...i just dont know how to make a
spacebattle...which could be a problem

Get the couch here:
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/SWB ... erimental/

You'll need the texture and other bits (msh chunks) from the Armchair pack. I'll get round to updating the chunks at some point, and probably put another engine on the couch :D

Edit> pic added, and note that the co-pilot for the couch is not fully set up, first person view needs adjusting, but hey, I've given you the odf, and you all want to be modders, so go forth and mod this baby

Not that I need to prove that I pwn, but...

Stupid bots, hogging the couch!
