Bomber mounted Beams

It is possible to put beams on a bomber... I had a GTB Ursa with an AAAf as it's turret... it was kick ass! but it requires you change the flags of a beam to player allowed, and use the beam free all sexp...


I will now put Terslash wanab's on the Ursa... :wickedsmile:

You're insane

This might be more useful to the B5 MOD however. The Whitestar for instance.

i just tried putting player allowed into the flags for aaaf but its not working - i'm new to this so what else do i need to do - just want to watch a sathanus be taken down bya swarm of bombers


Posted by Snipes on 03-05-2001 03:48 AM:

ok, you'll need to put the aaaf in the turret's bank..


Where it says

$subsystem: Turret01****
$default pbank: ("aaaf")


and then use the beam free all thing...


and Ice, yes, I am insane... I'm surprised none elsa has done it...

hmm yeah tried that but when i open fred it says the prometus r is in the turret not the aaaf - guess i'll just have to mess about with it for a bit see if i can get it to work


Posted by KillMeNow on 03-05-2001 04:25 AM:

wow thats cool - i put a huge beam cannon on my ursa and took down a sathanus think i'll need to scale down the beam though i kinda lost the fighter in this blue glowing ball when it fired


Posted by Snipes on 03-05-2001 03:25 PM:

yeah, that'll happen, that's why I changed the aaaf to be thinner, and have a smaller glow radius...

it's fun tho, right?

You think so? I believe there is a mod availible that has al kinds of fighter/bomber mounted beams. Not that it is fun te play(wel for the first 2 seconds it is) Even the Shivans have their piece of gunnery.


Posted by Snipes on 03-05-2001 08:41 PM:

and where, persay, is this mod?


Posted by KillMeNow on 03-06-2001 12:25 AM:

yeah probally need to do something like that although it is true it add little to the playablity of the game but the first few seconds to seeing beam fire from your fighter.....well it warms the heart doesn't it or at least whats ont eh recieving end anyway


Posted by KillMeNow on 03-06-2001 12:28 AM:

i think i'm going to take the seraphim or what ever it is the one that has liek 3 turrets or somethign on it reskin it and make it look terran turn it into a point defence fighter - another thing - i created a aaaf beam sentry gun which is fun


Posted by Snipes on 03-06-2001 01:01 AM:

I've done all of that already... Even put shields on the sentry, and then AAAf...

It was kikass tho...


Posted by KillMeNow on 03-06-2001 03:38 AM:

i take it sheilds are abit more complicated than clicking a tab in fred? hmmmm need to use that hm what it called sugeltech thing? never had a huge amount of luck with that thing


Posted by Snipes on 03-06-2001 04:39 AM:

Well, I am practically a beta tester for it, I've reported many bugs, and got him to make the newest version avail...
