I assume you’re wondering how you put current tank models into the game.

Right click on one of the 2D views and click misc_gamemodel OR misc_model. A model is plastered into the map but a gamemodel can move and act as an objective.

Press “N” to bring up the entities menu, and delete the whole shortcut up to the models/mapobjects/etc. part.

E.g. if the key was “model” and the value was “C:/Program Files/Wolfenstein - ET/etmain/models/mapobjects/tanks_sd/tank1.md3” you need to delete the “C:/Program Files/Wolfenstein - ET/etmain” part.

First I recommend you extract the whole models and textures part of the pak0.pk3 file into etmain if you haven’t already done so.

EDIT: I forgot to tell you, you’ll find the tanks in etmain/models/mapobjects.

its a .md3 model texture already made. make a misc_gamemodel and find it in the models\mapobjects folder

yes, and that one you can find in the models\mapobjects anks_sd folder.

(AnNuM) #7

but i’m whant to tank move when i’m close

(AnNuM) #8

thx Ifurita you right

(ThompZen) #9

ah i see. well, i think you can find a prefab somewhere, but you should be familiar with scripting before you make such a thing in you map.

Getting a tank to move like that is really complicated…

ThompZen: Hehe, but mine was first! :wink:

its not really that hard. Took me about three days to get it working right. I have a tank and a truck in my map. Just open up goldrush and select everything to do with the tank and its splines, dont worry about the pink ones. then save selected.
make a new map and import the tank stuff. Now open up the goldrush script and save it with your map name.script keep all the stuff from line 1-143. you will change that later
also keep lines 154-1782. This is how the tank works. look at the tank script hard and you will learn how to get it to work then you can apply it to your map. also look at fueldump script for tank help.

also delete setautospawn from the script. you will use that again later.

(AnNuM) #13

but wen i’m copy this tank he is a ghost and don’t move :frowning:
:moo::moo:

(AnNuM) #14

please script and prefab
:moo::moo:

(Pukedukem) #15

did you try taking the tank, script from goldrush. well if it isnt moving take all of the goldrush script and save it as your map name. and only delete the setauto spawn lines.
Also when you get the tank from goldrush just make a box around it and select touching. You may have missed a orgin and a clip box for the tank. look for a yellow path coming from the tank and going into the ceiling of a building this is where that orgin and clip is at. dont save the tank, piece by piece save it all at once or it may not work.

Dont have the time now to make a prefab.
maybe later tonight after work.
