Ranger79 Base Objects Pack (Hesco's + others)

it seems this mod is broken now I cant use it with new beta version

Sorry man, I am not using the beta and do not know why the pack isn't working.

not working in the new either

Very noob thing to have to do, but after 15 minutes of trying to figure it out myself (and being afraid of guessing and screwing something up), I decided to bite the bullet and post here asking for help.

How do I install this? Sorry to have to ask such a stupid question.

You don't really say what you've tried / looked at so far - so gonna assume basics - have you read this - http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=98607

@ Mastiff / Ranger - Works fine in 1.2.8.27203

Haven't got a JSGME pointing at my beta so can't test that?

You are an outstanding human, thank you. Naturally I had to post a question in there too (if you can't tell, this is my first "modable" PC game), but I guess that's the only way I will learn.

not working here on 1.2.8 :(

Maybe any details on what you tried to make it work? Gives us a chance to help! ...doesn't work is somewhat vague.

Does it crash? Did you install manually, modman or JSGME? Can you see the new objects in the ME or not? Do you use the ones under Armor, not the Fortifications, as said in ranger79's description?

Works for me with the latest 1.2.8

@Ranger79: AWESOME work! I would +rep you daily ... but I can't :smilewink:

One small issue, though: the ASV M2 (both variants) shoot too high. The closer the enemy is, the higher they seem to aim - as if the aiming was upside down / inversed / off by 180 degrees.

Great objects for mission design there Ranger! Should be in ED's package so all players got them :thumbup:

Update to mod pack coming this Friday. Update includes static C5, patrol hmmv with and without overhead lights, and other goodies. Would love some help getting the CA view fixed, currently the gun sights are 90 degrees off when trying to use the units in CA. Units shown in video below

Hello dear Ranger,

WOW great news, it's super.

A great thanks in advance, Skull.

Hello Ranger, welcome back!

Try to contact upuaut or Lilkiki, they have the latest mods of CA units and sure they can help with the little bug of camera.

Hi Ranger,

to correct the "view position", you need to turn your "POINT_GUN" helper in Max in that direction :

UP = Y

RIGHT = Z

FRONT = X

Do the same for "CENTER_TOWER" helper.

Hope this help ;)

Awesome, i only tried one of the helpers last time. I'll give it a try on Friday, thank you

Don't forget to add a helper point for the driver view. New feature in CA.

this can be edited via lua parameters without helper ;)

Wow! I wonder why I haven't seen this mod before

Lol. I just found it myself! Life raft for the win. I am going to have a little fun with that.

Hey Lilkiki,

I haven't used 3ds in over 8 or 9 months and it is a very perishable skill, if I send you the max files can you assist with fixing the gun orientation so I can focus on mission building?

Sure if it helps !

send also the lua file so I can check connectors & args

Thanks Bro will send a PM with link to download shortly.

Pack updated on main page, more to come in the next few days.

Good, I take that for now the camera is not fixed yet?

Also it would be a good thing to group all your units into a "group" by adding a tag before the unit names.... like "ranger79" so it will be very easy to know what unit is from which pack.
