Configproblem with my stinger rocket.

[brsseb]

Hi

Ive made myself a nice little rocket, an AIM-92 Stinger. But ive got some problems. The rocket is in a p3d file named BRSSEB_AIM_92.p3d ("0.000" and Geometry) and Ive inserted it as a proxy (3 times) in my helicopter model, ghost\ghost.p3d.

I inserted the proxys this way: insert proxy, "\ghost\BRSSEB_AIM_92", positioned them right (using bulldozer) and deleted the foldername in the selectionname, from "proxy:\ghost\BRSSEB_AIM_92.01" to just "proxy:BRSSEB_AIM_92.01" (.01 -> .03), just like a tutorial told me too.

So I guess the error lies in the configfile. Here it is. When I try this, OFP loads fine but it just crashes to desktop when
clicking Preview in Mission Editor when I test my heli. Does someone spot anything wrong with the weapon setup? (The heli works fine when I delete all weapon-stuff).

{

class weapon: default{};
class BRSSEB_AIM_92: weapon {};
};

Ok, did some changes and sorted out the most obviois bugs, now it doenst crash any longer, just says "no entry ".modelSpecial."" and I dont understand why :| !

I suspect the error lies in the cfgNonAIVehicles..Here it is:

class CfgModels
{
// The weapons
class weapon: default{};
class BRSSEB_AIM_92: weapon {};

};

try making the 0.000 to 0.750

Changed the stinger lod name from "0.000" to "0.7500". Also tried "0.500" but still saying "No entry .ModelSpecial" when I try to test it.

Hi. was thinking..

In cfgModels, shouldnt I write instead?:
class weapon: default{};
class BRSSEB_AIM_92_L: weapon {}; // Notice _L for launcher

(makes no difference in the error, though)

And, in the CfgNonAIVehicles, why not:

class ProxyBRSSEB_AIM_92_L: ProxyWeapon // Notice _L
{ ..... };

instead since BRSSEB_AIM_92_L is the launcher (weapon) and just BRSSEB_AIM_92 is the ammo? (YTHIS generates an error if I do so, since ofp tries to fint the rocket p3d file in my data3d pbo instead of ghost pbo.
