Hi all.

I was testing a slum in my BHD MOD and I created also the destroyed model of it (just to try)

and

Ok, how to implement it ingame?
I want that when the slum has been destroyed, you will get smoke around, and the the original model replaced with the destroyed version...
I always got this error ingame when the object get the damage of 1:

My config:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class CfgDestroy {
access = ReadAndCreate;

class BuildingHit {
sound[] = {};

did you try this ?

yeah I did, but no result, since as you can see in the config, all the time I add the "\BHD_m\Slums\slum8_dest.p3d" line i got that error, that there's not an entry to the model in the main config.bin

posted m8... I downloaded your models, but seems that the problem is not how I made my own ones, but the config... http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/sad_o.gif

I thought that there's something to implement into the model after having binarized it...

Instead of modeling RUINS you can also use RTM animation of the object. Each part of model has a named selection and keyframe animation of this "bone" is stored in RTM. See radiotower or bridges config definies for more.

Oh GOD, you mean that we can use in ArmA animations on building models? http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/pistols.gif

have a squizzy at 'class Land_Vysilac_FM' in the buildings.pbo config.cpp.

and here's a little christmas present (ftp://mlod@<hidden>/buildings/vysilac_FM.rar)... i took the liberty of the hex'ing the bone names to match the rtm... so load it in O2PE and run the '\ca\buildings\rtm\vysilac_FM.rtm' animation against it.

Ok, I'm making some RTM for my models... but I got this error message:
http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/2108/error1tx7.th.jpg (http://img80.imageshack.us/my.php?image=error1tx7.jpg)
what to do to fix it???
it happens for all the points from MS_01 to MS_12 (I called MS_xx all the separated faces of the sheet)

Ok I solved the problem.
It occurs when you want to animate a simple face (a quad or a triangle). just make it solid and the problem will be overpassed.

But now... I correctly made the model, created the proper animation, exported the matrice to a RTM, and put the line in the config.
I still can't get it to work... do I need to binarize the model with its model.cfg configuration file?
If so, can you give me the root class for objects?

EDIT

this is the animation working in buldozzer...
Sheet destruction animation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvbs9r5Rfuo)

yeah you can see it's still ugly because I'm learning the process...

<s>But when i go to the rtm folder i can't find anything inside..</s> (now i can see)

Maybe i could use this config, or modify it for what i pretend.
My intension is to make an animation for this model (http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm190/BCbravo6/Al%20Amiriya/models/Amiriya_buildings_10_b.jpg). I just don't know how to do it, can some one point me to the right direction, please?

edit1: how do i build a rtm animation?

you name parts of your model...
in O2PE you turn on the Window>Animations tool window.

you insert 'keyframes' at each keyframe you move your named selections using the various tools in O2PE.

you open .rtms with O2PE... by right-clicking in the Animations toolwindow and selecting from matrices... navigate to an appropriate .rtm for that particular model

Thanks m8, looks like im in the right path now. Just need to get used to it alittle.

Does these animations lag more then the collapse houses when they get destroyed?

that's a good question... You're probably better off ask LinkerSplit (who's unavailable atm) or DeanosBeano, probably the later as he's done ALOT of building rtm's...
