Gearbox Issue

[RichardsD]

The standard gearboxes really do not do it for me. I've made quite a few static objects now, and that is just fine, I have a config template for static objects that works just fine. I need some sort of way to turn this static object into a .. well a working empty gearbox.

Any help gents?

Heres a photo..



And heres my current config file..

class CfgPatches 
{ 
    class dar_objects 
    { 
        units[] = {"DAR_Milcase"}; 
        weapons[] = {}; 
        requiredVersion = 0.1; 
        requiredAddons[] = {"CAData"}; 
    }; 
}; 

class CfgVehicleClasses 
{ 
    class dar_objects 
    { 
        displayName = "DAR Objects"; 
    }; 
}; 

class CfgVehicles 
{ 
    class House; 
    class DAR_Milcase: House//Wall 
    { 
        scope = 2; 
        displayName = "Military Case"; 
        vehicleClass = "dar_objects"; 
        model = "\dar_objects\dar_milcase.p3d"; 
        mapSize = 0.2; 
        cost = 1000; 
        armor = 5000; 
        destrType = "DestructNo"; 
    }; 
};

Why don't you simply inherit from a existing ammobox? Just remove the gear related code.

Err.. I don't know where to find the configs for the normal gearboxes are? Any way to direct me to such?

[[FRL]Myke]

Please use "ammoboxes" instead of "gearbox" as at first i thought the thread is about vehicles gearbox.

Ammoboxes can be found in the weapons.pbo.

class ReammoBox;
class YourClassName: ReammoBox {
    scope = public;
    accuracy = 1000;
    displayName=$STR_DN_AMMO_CRATES_WEST;
    class TransportMagazines {};
    class TransportWeapons {};
};

I think this should work to create a empty box.

Alright, I did as you said. But I do not get any gear option?

class CfgPatches 
{ 
    class dar_objects 
    { 
        units[] = {"DAR_milcase"}; 
        weapons[] = {}; 
        requiredVersion = 0.1; 
        requiredAddons[] = {"CAData"}; 
    }; 
}; 

class CfgVehicleClasses 
{ 
    class dar_objects 
    { 
        displayName = "DAR Objects"; 
    }; 
}; 

class CfgVehicles 
{ 
    class ReammoBox;
    class DAR_milcase: ReammoBox 
{
    scope = 2;
    displayName= "MILSPEC Gearbox";
    vehicleClass = "dar_objects";
    model = "\dar_milcase\dar_milcase.p3d";
    mapSize = 0.2; 
    cost = 1000; 
    armor = 5000; 
    destrType = "DestructNo"; 
    class TransportMagazines {};
    class TransportWeapons {};
};

}; 

Any ideas on this?

What LOD's does your model have? At least Geometry LOD will be required afaik.

[RichardsD]

HMMM.. I may have not implemented my Geo LOD.. I shall check that and report back at once..
