[?] Adding "camera recoil to handheld weapons

[qwerq]

I've been screwing around with modding in BF2 for a few months now and I've been constantly developing a personal BF2 mod. So far I've overhauled the all the weapon and vehicle stats as well as most of the effects.

Anyways, I want to add the camera shaking effect of vehicle weapons to the handheld weapons, similar to PR, but I'm not sure how. I've tried this:

Code: Select all

rem ---BeginComp:SoldierBasedRecoilComp ---
ObjectTemplate.createComponent SoldierBasedRecoilComp
ObjectTemplate.recoil.hasRecoilForce 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.goBackOnRecoil 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceUp CRD_UNIFORM/0.8/1/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceLeftRight CRD_UNIFORM/-0.5/0.5/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.zoomModifier 0.9
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphFrameCount 8
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphExponent 9
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphTotalMovement 1
rem ---EndComp ---
rem ---BeginComp:WeaponBasedRecoilComp ---
rem ObjectTemplate.createComponent WeaponBasedRecoilComp
ObjectTemplate.recoil.cameraRecoilSpeed 10
ObjectTemplate.recoil.cameraRecoilSize 3
rem ---EndComp ---

This:

Code: Select all

rem ---BeginComp:SoldierBasedRecoilComp ---
ObjectTemplate.createComponent SoldierBasedRecoilComp
ObjectTemplate.recoil.hasRecoilForce 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.goBackOnRecoil 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceUp CRD_UNIFORM/0.8/1/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceLeftRight CRD_UNIFORM/-0.5/0.5/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.zoomModifier 0.9
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphFrameCount 8
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphExponent 9
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphTotalMovement 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.cameraRecoilSpeed 10
ObjectTemplate.recoil.cameraRecoilSize 3
rem ---EndComp ---

This:

Code: Select all

rem ---BeginComp:WeaponBasedRecoilComp ---
rem ObjectTemplate.createComponent WeaponBasedRecoilComp
ObjectTemplate.recoil.hasRecoilForce 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.goBackOnRecoil 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceUp CRD_UNIFORM/0.8/1/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceLeftRight CRD_UNIFORM/-0.5/0.5/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.zoomModifier 0.9
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphFrameCount 8
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphExponent 9
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilGraphTotalMovement 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.cameraRecoilSpeed 10
ObjectTemplate.recoil.cameraRecoilSize 3
rem ---EndComp ---

They didn't work, as expected.

I've checked the recoil files in PR and they just had the SoldierBasedRecoilComp, nothing about WeaponBasedRecoil or cameraRecoil.

Anyone have any idea how to accomplish this? Thanks in advance.

Those settings for camera recoil don't work on handheld weapons. PR accomplishes the camera shake with the fire animation.
