flame tanks help! | Forums

what do i have to alter in a tank file so that tank can become a flamethrower tank like the churchill croc. i got a mod that includes flametanks but i want to know if i can alter different tanks to have flamethrowers, for example can i have tiger tank with a ft. and what files do i need to change, the game file or a mod file.
and last can i still be able to play mp like that with files altered by me that no one has them exactly like the ones i have ?

reply is GREATLY APPRECIATED

Everyone has to have the same modifications...

I assume you are talking about my mod that has the flame tanks? I don't think any other mod has flame tanks in it.

You have to change the gun on a tiger to be "flame_gun" for the main gun or "flame_mgun" for hull gun. This stuff is in the vehicle .def file.

Woops, I messed up. You have to change the flame effect in tank.inc as well.

Shouldnt the flamethrower be a secondary weapon? The real flame tanks were normal tanks, but they had normal flamethrowers inside them, that they put into the gunbarrel..

[bf2player2006]

yes exactly like the chrucill croc that has its ft in the hull mg position
though ive never seen a fl tank that has the fl IN the gun barrel...

I don't remember the line... just look for the word "flame"... there should be changes to three tanks in there that I made.
