misc_turret & misc_G2turret

[Pahricida]

I'd really like to know wether anybody can help me out on this one.

The misc_turrent and misc_G2turrent entities place some NPC static turrets.

Now what I wonderd about was the location of their model files.

 

I browsed the whole assets but couldn't find anything.

 

NOw if anyone could tell me where those are stored ... that would be neat.

misc_turret:

models/map_objects/hoth/turret_bottom.md3 - bottom of turret

models/map_objects/hoth/turret_base.md3 - top of turret

 

misc_turretG2:

models/map_objects/imp_mine/turret_canon.glm - standard turret model

models/map_objects/imp_mine/turret_damage.md3 - destroyed turret model

models/map_objects/wedge/laser_cannon_model.glm - turbolaser battery

 

NOTE: misc_turretG2 doesn't seem to work properly in MP.

thanks!

Now I just need to get the bones for it.

[razorace]

.md3 files don't have bones. as for the .gla models, just open them in modview.

[Pahricida]

yes I saw the bones in Modview ... but I don't have a root file.

 

Do I just have to build the model around self placed bones wich are placed at about the same coordinates as the original ones?

[razorace]

It depends. what are you trying to do? Replace the turrets with new models?

[Pahricida]

exactly ...

 

Maybe even add some new animations for the turrets .. It's kind of a new territory to me (the animating) but I want to advance a lil' bit.

 

But for now new models would also do fine

[razorace]

well, I beleive the issue is a matter of weighing the model correctly. But I don't understand modeling that well. I suggest you post about this in the modeling forum.
