Stock Renegade does NOT use tracking missiles. That is why, in the post I posted above, I said to modify the ammo so that it tracks, that way it is useful against aircraft. Other wise, the aircraft would need to be in one place in order to be useful.



Ah i got what you mean, thank you.

WeaponDefinitionClass *d = (WeaponDefinitionClass *)Find_Named_Definition(Get_Current_Weapon(obj));
	if (d)
	{
		unsigned long AmmoID = d->PrimaryAmmoDefID;
		AmmoDefinitionClass *AmmoDef = (AmmoDefinitionClass*)Find_Definition(AmmoID);
		if (AmmoDef)
			AmmoDef->IsTracking = true;
	}


This does fix it but only server side, for the client they still shoot in the air, is there a client update needed?


Edit: Yep tested it, for 4.0 user's we would have to let them download a custom objects.ddb what really sucks.
(older scripts 3.44 etc it does work fine)


Bückstabü!

Can someone get me some evidence (e.g. video clips) of how this stuff worked pre-4.0 and how it works now so TT can see exactly what is broken here?

Note that I mean whats broken with a stock objects.ddb (i.e. ignoring any of this talk about objects.ddb changes)

ok, unless I can get specific details about exactly how this worked in stock and how it works now (no that video isn't good enough, not unless you can also get a similar video taken with stock renegade) I have no way of fixing this issue, whatever it might be.

It may have been something they tweaked and didn't know what it went to or something, when they first started on 4.0.

Shit happens like that when you start to make patches.

I definitely remember SamSites not being limited to only shooting missiles above themselves. Playing a bunch of co-op years back definitely made me nostalgic of the PITA missions lol
