Post #1361
That doesn't seem to work. I can try upping the weight more I guess.
Also no idea. :(
Edited:
Fuck pageking, no content. Shit. here, have a tank
m46 Legionaire. 30 tons 100mm good armor. Same p/w as a T-72. Set up for a much larger powerplant for later on. Treads and cupola are holo.

Well I tried swaybars with axised props and ropes with precision alignment, turned out pretty good, Went from rolling over if I turned at 30 because the suspension was soft to having no problem turning at 50 and if it did roll, it was because of the width not the suspension. Works pretty well, (but note: don't try to do it with hydraulics without gravity turned on for the props, when you unfreeze it, it spazzes and freezes gmod in all of like 1 tick.) Just make sure the props have gravity turned on.

drop the bars to the same height as the wheel rigid ropes and use stretch-only elastics if you want a lower COG. Just sayin'. but good times.Well I tried swaybars with axised props and ropes with precision alignment, turned out pretty good, Went from rolling over if I turned at 30 because the suspension was soft to having no problem turning at 50 and if it did roll, it was because of the width not the suspension.

poor mass center. weld parent your armor to make more physical mass. my tanks are usually around 50% physical mass to counter recoil, offer more rigidity, unfuck spheres, etc.
Edited:
also, anyone have any ideas for some quick tutorial videos i can make? i was thinking about showing how to do kafouille's antiroll bars, perhaps one troubleshooting sphere wheels as well.
-
I find that makesperhical wheels to be laggy, so I'm not going to use them anymore. Found that out when I deleted a makesperhical wheel from my 2x4 car and the lag-o-metre for the server drops a lot.

Second tank. 50 props and functional. Needs some detailing and stuff yet. Has a Light MG (12.9mm I think?? Can't remember) and a 50mm Cannon.
This one has suspension which works quite well and can withstand a decent load. Still looking at different ways I can do suspension setups though.
ACF 15L I4 Diesel Powered. Not super fast, but fast enough that I actually want to drive it. Weight is 14.5t.
I know it doesn't look half as good as some of the tanks you guys come up with.
-
Since we have autoloaders now, I think this might be a nice touch. Fuck fraps, recording my iTunes. Tho it synced up nicely, fucking weird.
how's kaf doing roll bars? ALso acf tank steering might be useful.
-
going to have to make it
sometime
Edited:
do one for car steering
because i can never get it to work

you allreddy post this krabin ?????????????????????????/
Edited:
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it's for blind folk
-
With this system and my new solid axles..... I'm invincible!!!
-
added it to OP under your tutorials. wop.
-
If my computer didn't cap me off at about 13-15FPS while FRAPSing I could do it. I even have a simple little E2 I made that works nicely with it.
-
Some ACF armoring things I found out.
Left one has 160mm front at 45 degrees, sides 180mm, back 180mm, top 30mm, 14 140mm rounds, mass 17.9t.
Right 230mm all round, 20 140mm rounds, mass 16.7t.
Also 40t tank I'm working on.
EDIT: Also F*** 50mm, 75mm autoloaders mount 2 cannons instead.
-
having ammo inside of props is against the rules of acf combat
-
aye, it's not allowed to use "block armor" because it's bullshit
-
I make exploding blowout panels, because fuck armor. And 025x blocks for base props aren't a crime. Stuffing all your ammo inside of one makes ppl rage, but having the bottom of a tall crate in one i don't see a problem with.
-
Is there an autoclutch implemented in the acf engine? because I feel like the engine looses power from time to time. Please remove this.
-
Nice armament.Corsair combat ready with four alternate firing 30mm HMGs. Retracts by way of fading door. It even stalls realistically if it pitches too sharply out of relative wind, though I have no idea how I got it to do that, I certainly didn't strike out for that, but it kind of pleases me. Feels strikingly similar to Il-2.
It just won its first dogfight against Phoenix's spitfire
Edited:
French tank
underpowered, undergunned, and overarmored
Edited:
I love you more than anything ever at all right now. (Btw I have a tank made out of crates. Impressive right?)
The Jagdpanzer VI Jagdtiger Ausf. B, Sd.Kfz. 186.
248 props and still WIP on the e2.
Original Armor value's and using a 120mm gun compansating for the 128mm KVK the real one used.
Holo barrel recoils back into the tank and slowly comes forth again to create realism.
Edited:
Hmm ye the stug III Ausf A, looks quite good. Also the Sherman does it's job but to comment along with the crowd: The Sherman needs more weathering on it's color (make it look more dark green, bit of rust etc etc.) And the Stug III indeed is quite small, i made a StugIII before without exterior armor plates on the sides, and as i build it of a picture i can remember the stug has 8 wheels, total each side. On the picture i can only count 6.
Example of my stug:

While we're bumping shit from two weeks ago, I missed Mr white's comment about rpms. That's why i don't use I4s; having two separate ignition points makes it so much harder to stall I never really have that problem. Then again my engines are usually fairly low p/w ratio, but high-torque.
Speaking of which...
Fucking CHAINSAW

Who else giggled with madness at the sheer fucking size of everything?Hi there, I'm currently working on a E-100
(ESPECIALLY THE GUN. /giggle/)
-
some more DeLorean stuff. Got it modelled, just needs some interior stuff done. thanks to mr. sticks and kai on the teleporting and the time/date/year thing inside the car. It actually shows your current time, date and year. Pretty nifty little device.
here is a video of me turning on the flux capacitor and making it teleport. it teleports to wherever I spawned it at (not going into the ground this time!) and has lots of cool effects when it teleports. problem is, you need to spawn it at a place where there's lots of space. It teleports away at 88 but that means it gets thrown out the other end at 88, meaning you need a a bit of space for braking it. think you can see it in the slowmotion shot I took at the end.

That is officially one of the coolest things I've ever seen. How did you teleport the whole thing without the constraints/relative positioning of tires/etc derping?some more DeLorean stuff.

awh, thanks. I'm using E2 setpos to the wheels in order to not make them flop everywhere when teleporting, but in order not to have the wheels exploding as it hits the ground when it goes out the other end, it locks the wheels at 88 (if the flux capacitor is on).
-
Way to welcome the newcomer... Great work man!

Anyone know where I can find tutorials and examples on holo controls? Right now I have to make do with physical controls, and while they do work, they're kinda finickey to set up and I haven't yet found a single vehicle where the valve handle prop looks proper as a steering wheel. Usually too small. I also have to tie up two of my eight joystick inputs working the pedals.
Also that DeLorean is fucking awesome. I've always liked that car, wouldn't mind owning one in real life as long as it didn't have the unreliable Renault engine in it. /OT
-
Holo controls? Like a hologram joystick for example?
-
Yeah, pretty much. Steering wheels, pedals, joysticks could be used as PRNDLs.
-
Basic holo really isn't that hard. It took me maybe 3 days to learn enough to put together the holo controls on my one minicopter. Then again I went from EGP to holo, which makes shit 99% easier.
Just start playing around with the Wire e2 wiki

International Harvester Scout II
-
Like red said its pretty easy, here is a very simple steering wheel.
Code:holoAng(1, Body:toWorld(ang(45, 0, -Body:toLocal(SteeringArm:angles()):yaw())))

Ok my current WIP is trying to figure out ACF...
Ok I downloaded it and it worked (Thank you Mr. White) But I have no idea how it works now?
It used to be you just link it, make a button, wire it to fire and boom you have a working unmounted gun. Now I try and nothing happens, then I wired active into the ammo crate and the MGs and autocannons only fire one shot? I wired reload it does nothing... HELP! I have no idea how the hell this is supposed to work.
I know I sound like a total noob but I am. I want to build things but ACF is like... Well it's changed so much I have no idea how to work anything anymore.
Edit: Ok I used a toggled dual input so NVM. Thanks again Mr. White. Lol I have NO idea what I did incorrectly with the last download. Thanks again.
Hope to post my own tank eventually!
-
Back to those ACF combat rules, where can I find them?
Edit: Why I cant use search?
-
Happens to me too. Really annoying.
-
I blame Garry. ALso the acf overrun clutch is fucking RAGEOUT annoying if you're trying to make anything slow.
-
ACF only just started doing that to me, where it seems that the clutch engages and disengages at an interval depending on what gear I'm in. I never used to have this problem, but now I do and it's hella annoying. Guess that's what you get for usinga Beta addon
-
Gonna be making a racecar if such a thing can exist in Gmod.
Suspension works well and has low centre of mass.
Not much to look at right now.

you must be new
