Duncan sent me the HailFire droid to skin, so hope to get it done this weekend. The vehicles is quite impressive apart from needing a few animation tweaks. The rockets work well, arcing through the air. I think perhaps limiting them in number would b...  [Read More]

O.K. Duncan resized it and it looks a lot better. A lot of it comes down to the vehicle file though. http://www.home.earthlink.net/~monsoontide/NewFiles/dewback_ingame3.jpg http://www.home.earthlink.net/~monsoontide/NewFiles/dewback_ingame4.jpg ht...  [Read More]

Vehicles can be spawned in ANY type of game. However, RAVEN really only used vehicles in SP and SIEGE. It's up to the custom map makers to include the new vehicles in their maps, whatever the type may be. As far as BETA testing there will be 6 posi...  [Read More]

Well, it's scaled to the size of the r2 head. It seems about the right size when you are running around, but when you get in it, it seems to shrink?!? Didn't go with the droid npc since it doesn't fit. Would like to get it to rotate a bit though....  [Read More]

Well... it's in the game. The .veh file needs a sh!tload of tweaking 'cos handling it is just awful - it's based on the default x-wing .veh file. - Anyone with experience of the spaceship vehicles got any suggestions/advice? And I still have to do th...  [Read More]

Yes, the Sith Speeder has a few problems in regards to the .veh file! The reason it doesn't fall as fast as you though is because it's a repulsorlift vehicle (While you as a player don't have anti-grav built in!) The mine is the vehicles primary weap...  [Read More]

Yes - very acurate wedge! The lack of extensive testing & feedback was one reason we missed the problem with the Sith Speeder's mine weapon not working properly in single player mode. (And partially my fault for not setting a proper testing sche...  [Read More]
