im trying to modify FOC executor's hardpoints LASER to fire 10 times in a pulse.  when i put the lines in the HARDPOINTS xml the model comes out with those hardpoints destroyed.

i need the names of the bones of the executor model EV_ExecutorStarDestroyer.ALO please and the text i would need to modify the hardpoints.

i dont want to add new bones or anything because thats way too difficult. just the text files

Use the ALO viewer. It's so simple and so fun, you'll be mad no one told you about it before.

what is the viewer, where is it, what is the name of the program

why do you need to see the actual hard point on the model for to actually change the firing times of a projectile - such as a laser ? - as you say this is done in hardpoints xml files not in the hardpoints on the models.

 

 <Fire_Min_Recharge_Seconds>3.0</Fire_Min_Recharge_Seconds>
            <Fire_Max_Recharge_Seconds>4.0</Fire_Max_Recharge_Seconds>
            <Fire_Pulse_Count>8</Fire_Pulse_Count>
            <Fire_Pulse_Delay_Seconds>0.2</Fire_Pulse_Delay_Seconds>
            <Fire_Range_Distance>3300.0</Fire_Range_Distance>

 

This section of code is all that is important for you to change for each hardpoint entry that fires a turbo laser.

 

try this for each hardpoint

 

 <Fire_Min_Recharge_Seconds>3.0</Fire_Min_Recharge_Seconds>
            <Fire_Max_Recharge_Seconds>4.0</Fire_Max_Recharge_Seconds>
            <Fire_Pulse_Count>10</Fire_Pulse_Count>
            <Fire_Pulse_Delay_Seconds>0.1</Fire_Pulse_Delay_Seconds>
            <Fire_Range_Distance>3300.0</Fire_Range_Distance>

what is the viewer, where is it, what is the name of the program

Every modder needs one! The ALO viewer ROCKS!

(You may not think that at first, but when you realize it's full potential you'll agree)

You can use it to learn the bone names(Thus, hardpoints without breakoffs) view animations(copying and pasting anims can allow you to use more abilities) and view modded work(great for skinners and modelers)

 

Sorry if I'm spazzing out.
