Custom Vehicle - Armoured Bulldozer

[geodav]

1st remove the UTVehicle_TheCar_Content and all it's assets,
2nd your problem looks like an animtree error, or all your wheels have the same name.

if you want upload it somewhere and send me a link via PM and i'll have a look for you

ps don't forget the source code

With Geodav's help I now have the bulldozer functioning basically in Unreal.

At the moment I can only get 1 of the machine guns and rockets to fire but am trying to get both to fire at the same time. Does anyone know how this is done?

Also I have been told by somebody that the code to get the tank treads moving is 'hidden in c++ code'. Has anyone got this to work using another method?

Thanks

the weapon effects are set in a few places

Seats(1)={(	GunClass=class'UTVWeap_GoliathMachineGun',
				GunSocket=(GunFireSocket),
				GunPivotPoints=(Object10),
				TurretVarPrefix="Gunner",
				TurretControls=(gun_rotate,gun_pitch),
				CameraTag=GunViewSocket,
				CameraOffset=16,
				SeatIconPos=(X=0.46,Y=0.65),
				CameraBaseOffset=(Z=30.0),
				MuzzleFlashLightClass=class'UTTankeMinigunMuzzleFlashLight',
				WeaponEffects=((SocketName=GunFireSocket,Offset=(X=-36),Scale3D=(X=6.5,Y=6.0,Z=6.0)))
				)}

	// Muzzle Flashes
	VehicleEffects(0)=(EffectStartTag=GoliathTurret,EffectTemplate=ParticleSystem'VH_Goliath.Effects.PS_Goliath_Cannon_MuzzleFlash',EffectSocket=TurretFireSocket)
	VehicleEffects(1)=(EffectStartTag=GoliathMachineGun,EffectTemplate=ParticleSystem'VH_Goliath.Effects.P_Goliath_MiniGun_MuzzleFlash',EffectSocket=GunFireSocket)

check the gunfiresockets, the above is for a single weapon.

from the manta code

	Seats(0)={( GunClass=class'UTVWeap_MantaGun',
				GunSocket=(Gun_Socket_01,Gun_Socket_02),
				TurretControls=(gun_rotate_lt,gun_rotate_rt),
				CameraTag=ViewSocket,
				CameraOffset=-180,
				SeatIconPos=(X=0.46,Y=0.45),
				DriverDamageMult=0.75,
				bSeatVisible=true,
				CameraBaseOffset=(X=-20,Y=0,Z=10),
				SeatOffset=(X=-30,Y=0,Z=-5),
				WeaponEffects=((SocketName=Gun_Socket_01,Offset=(X=-35,Y=-3),Scale3D=(X=3.0,Y=6.0,Z=6.0)),(SocketName=Gun_Socket_02,Offset=(X=-35,Y=-3),Scale3D=(X=3.0,Y=6.0,Z=6.0)))
				)}

notice how the weapon effects are set for 2 sockets

the track materials are set in the content code

	LeftTeamMaterials[0]=MaterialInstanceConstant'VH_Goliath.Materials.MI_VH_Goliath02_Treads_Red'
	LeftTeamMaterials[1]=MaterialInstanceConstant'VH_Goliath.Materials.MI_VH_Goliath02_Treads_Blue'
	RightTeamMaterials[0]=MaterialInstanceConstant'VH_Goliath.Materials.MI_VH_Goliath03_Treads_Red'
	RightTeamMaterials[1]=MaterialInstanceConstant'VH_Goliath.Materials.MI_VH_Goliath03_Treads_Blue'

That's one crazy model...looks like something an Ork would drive...nice job.
