  • Multiple turrets ect.

    #1
    I have an idea for a small Unit pack for RA3 (an Ultimate Land/Air/Sea unit and a Building), While I should have no problem modeling/UV mapping and animating ect I have no experience with the SDK or engine and was wondering if the following is possible in the Ra3 Engine and if so pointers to tutorials or anything relevant ?

    1. Can a unit have multiple turrets (example adding an anti air and anti ground turret to the Kirov ?).

    2. Can Units be given the same stats as airfields (to add the ability to land and build aircraft from a moving unit ?).

    Thanks in advace.

    Null.

    I'm not much of a coder but:

    1. I believe you can, if you look at the twin blade it has two weapons, the minigun and the rockets. The same princible should apply.
    2. Interesting idea. I guess would start with the code for the Allied Aircraft carrier as that creates 'units' from another unit and they return to it to land. Couldn't say if it was possible without doing some testing.
    3. You can model/UV map and animate... do you belong to a MOD team, if not, would you consider joining the Unleashed Team?

      Everyone of those 6 turrets works 100%

      And, it would be better to look at the IFV to see how, each one of turrets is a separate turret in it's code.

        No they aren't, they're all hardpoint weapons.

          Oh, soz.
          That was my IFV.

          Just add each of the turret's as a new turret code entry on in the draw and the weapon module, just set the number to be the same.

            Imagine such a unit replacing the MCV... That would be awesome.

                  The closest I can think of, for me, is the Hammer Tanks Secondary Weapons, more specifically the Aircraft Carrier addon.
