Hey!
I have almost finished this vehicle "Westfalia", but I ran in a problem. The steeringwheel in the truck is only moving to the sides and not rotatiting? Anyone got a clue what i could be missing or what could be wrong?
Here's the code:
Here's the con script for the steering wheel
Code: Select all
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate westfalia_aSteeringwheel
ObjectTemplate.setPosition -0.3468/0.5832/1.7773
ObjectTemplate.setRotation -90/0/-26
ObjectTemplate.create RotationalBundle westfalia_aSteeringwheel
ObjectTemplate.collisionPart 1
ObjectTemplate.hasCollisionPhysics 1
ObjectTemplate.physicsType 3
ObjectTemplate.hasMobilePhysics 1
ObjectTemplate.geometryPart 1
and here's the .tweak lines4
Code: Select all
rem ---------------------------- Steering -----------------------------------
ObjectTemplate.activeSafe RotationalBundle westfalia_aSteeringwheel
ObjectTemplate.modifiedByUser "dkleader"
ObjectTemplate.floaterMod 0
ObjectTemplate.hasMobilePhysics 1
ObjectTemplate.hasCollisionPhysics 1
ObjectTemplate.physicsType Mesh
rem ---------------------------- Steering Rotation ---------------------------
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate S_westfalia_aSteeringwheel_RotationRpm
ObjectTemplate.setMinRotation 0/0/-30
ObjectTemplate.setMaxRotation 0/0/30
ObjectTemplate.setMaxSpeed 0/0/100
ObjectTemplate.setAcceleration 0/0/-90
ObjectTemplate.setInputToRoll PIYaw
ObjectTemplate.setAutomaticReset 1
ObjectTemplate.setAutomaticReset 1
ObjectTemplate.activeSafe Sound S_westfalia_aSteeringwheel_RotationRpm
ObjectTemplate.modifiedByUser "dkleader"
Thanks in advance!

I think the pivot has very low position. Try to move to the centre of steeringwheel

I have added this line
Code: Select all
ObjectTemplate.setInputToYaw PIYaw
to the
Code: Select all
ObjectTemplate.activeSafe RotationalBundle westfalia_aSteeringwheel
and changed this
Code: Select all
ObjectTemplate.setMinRotation 0/0/-30
ObjectTemplate.setMaxRotation 0/0/30
to this
Code: Select all
ObjectTemplate.setMinRotation 0/-30/0
ObjectTemplate.setMaxRotation 0/30/0
and changed the acceleration of the
Code: Select all
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate S_westfalia_aSteeringwheel_RotationRpm
to
Code: Select all
ObjectTemplate.setAcceleration 0/-150/0
is that what you meant [R-DEV]J.F.Leusch69 or?
I have only worked with modding for BF2 for 2 and a half week some I'm not that stong in the Con and Tweak grammer yet. But the Steeringwheel isn't turning now, now it's just stuck?

Thats for you helper, the ideer with changing the axis worked, Thanks!
If anyone else should run into the problem here is the working tweak code:
Code: Select all
rem ---------------------------- Steering -----------------------------------
ObjectTemplate.activeSafe RotationalBundle westfalia_Steeringwheel
ObjectTemplate.modifiedByUser "dkleader"
ObjectTemplate.setNetworkableInfo BasicInfo
rem ObjectTemplate.PivotPosition 0/0/1.4
ObjectTemplate.setInputToPitch PIYaw
ObjectTemplate.floaterMod 0
ObjectTemplate.hasMobilePhysics 1
ObjectTemplate.hasCollisionPhysics 1
ObjectTemplate.physicsType Mesh
rem ---------------------------- Steering Rotation ---------------------------
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate S_westfalia_Steeringwheel_RotationRpm
ObjectTemplate.setMinRotation 0/-30/0
ObjectTemplate.setMaxRotation 0/30/0
ObjectTemplate.setMaxSpeed 0/1/0
ObjectTemplate.setAcceleration 0/-90/0
ObjectTemplate.setAutomaticReset 1
ObjectTemplate.activeSafe Sound S_westfalia_Steeringwheel_RotationRpm
ObjectTemplate.modifiedByUser "dkleader"
I changed the axis to Pitch and moved the values from MaxSpeed etc to the second value instead of the third, so it's Yaw/Pitch/Roll.

best thing to get these things done is the editor as you can easily change the values live and test, but remember that sometimes the editor tends to not save things like you want them to/overwrites/deletes stuff

Yeah i realized that now after trying to get used to the Editor, before i just used Sublime Text 2 as i normally do
But opening the editor or PR_Edit takes to much time, thanks for the tip

you can reduze the loading time by removing all not needed content from pr_edit.

for example if you are working on a air vehicle, all you need is the air folder and maybe the weapons/arment/misslies
the rest of the objects can go.
if you have removed too much, you will either get a crash, or a red line/error in the consol, you should be able to just add in the missing stuff while running the editor.

or if you have some spare cash, an SSD can drastically increase editor (and bf2/pr) load times providing the editor, bf2 and mods are installed on it
