[Impaler[WrG]]

Amazing, what will he come up with next?!

 

[Houman]

Wow great!

Do they have animations? Can I use the existing Modern Tank anaimation for these ones?

Thanks
Houman

 

[snafusmith]

All of my tank models use the standard tank animations. Point to the tank.kfm files in your XML (that's listed in the original threads for each tank). The standard modern armor is just a reskin.

 

[Houman]

Thank you.

Edit: Oh BTW, Do I have to copy all the content from the Tank folder into the Renault Folder, if I wish to use the tank animation, or do I just point the nif file to othe Renault and let the rest pointing to the Tank? Would that work like this?

Thanks
HOuman

You also need to point the SHADERNIF tag to the renault, even if it doesn't have the _fx version just point to the same file as the NIF tag. Other than that it's fine and should work without a hitch.

 

[Houman]

excellent. thanks rabbit.

 

[Houman]

Is the space between the filename not a problem?

Renault FT17.nif
Renault FT17.dds

Can I rename it, or is the name hardcoded?

Thanks
Houman

 

[MaxRiga]

all this tanks are already in my mod for a long time
download my mod and look at all settings if you don't know how to make them play

I never used spaces in filenames before (for Civ4 that is ) but if smitty provided it like this he most likely tested and it worked. One thing though, you cannot rename the DDS file, even though it's named like the NIF file which might make you think they are tied in that way, they're in fact not. The nif file has a reference "inside" to the dds texture, and so matter how you change the name of the nif file you cannot change the name of the dds file, unless you modify the nif file in the viewer but that's another story.

Yeah I was expecting that the name is hardcoded. But it works, XML seems to be fine with spaces between names. The Renault is working. Thanks

@Snafus, are you as well baal_isidro?

Anyway you said all the modern tanks use all the normal Tank animation, but M1A1 uses the modernarmor.nif though.

Thanks
