Go to your Think Tanks folder (My computer/LocalDisk/ProgramFiles/WhereyouboughtTT/ThinkTanks) And get into "game/server/Scripts"

Find your ACAS Folder "Codes" and find a file called "TeamsTanksProjectiles.cs" Open it up with Microsoft word Notepad, or anyother Word Editing program.

At the Very end of The Page, you see this:

Code: Select all

$ACAS::CodesFolder::Function[28] = "admprojectilechanger";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Shortcut[28] = "/admarea";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::ExtraArg[28] = "SplashProjectile";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Description[28] = "Change Player to SplashProj.";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::GuiArgs[28] = "SelectedPlayer";

$ACAS::CodesFolder::Function[29] = "admprojectilechanger";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Shortcut[29] = "/admspeedy";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::ExtraArg[29] = "SpeedyProjectile";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Description[29] = "Change Player to SpeedyProj.";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::GuiArgs[29] = "SelectedPlayer";

$ACAS::CodesFolder::Function[30] = "admprojectilechanger";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Shortcut[30] = "/admbounce";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::ExtraArg[30] = "BounceProjectile";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Description[30] = "Change Player to BounceProj.";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::GuiArgs[30] = "SelectedPlayer";

At the Bottom of that, Put this:

Code: Select all

$ACAS::CodesFolder::Function[30] = "admprojectilechanger";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Shortcut[30] = "/admNAMEOFPROJECTILE";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::ExtraArg[30] = "NAMEPROJECTILEProjectile";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Description[30] = "Change Player to NAMEOFPROJECTILEProj.";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::GuiArgs[30] = "SelectedPlayer";

You MUST get the name right for this line:

Code: Select all

$ACAS::CodesFolder::ExtraArg[30] = "NAMEPROJECTILEProjectile";

Put the name of the Weapon you made in the Place of NAMEOFPROJECTILE. Keep Projectile in same place.

IMPORTANT:

You must Edit the Numbers at the End of the Line!

Code: Select all

$ACAS::CodesFolder::Function[u][b][30][/b][/u] = "admprojectilechanger";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Shortcut[u][b][30][/b][/u] = "/admNAMEOFPROJECTILE";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::ExtraArg[u][b][30][/b][/u] = "NAMEPROJECTILEProjectile";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::Description[u][b][30][/b][/u] = "Change Player to NAMEOFPROJECTILEProj.";
$ACAS::CodesFolder::GuiArgs[u][b][30][/b][/u] = "SelectedPlayer";

EDIT THE BOLDED/UNDERLINED NUMBERS TO THE NUMBER AFTER THE LAST NUMBER (youll understand it After a While.)

In the Bigginning of the Page, you see Projectile Changing for NonAdmins, this goes the same way as these except Code, GUIArg, and Function is Different.

Need more info? PM me. I was in a rush to type this, Sorry.

i have a problem with emitters. i made a new texture called flame01.png
well i made a emitter

Code: Select all

datablock ParticleData(flameone)
{
   textureName          = "~/data/flame01.png";
   dragCoefficient      = 1.0;
   gravityCoefficient   = -0.2;
   inheritedVelFactor   = 0.3;
   constantAcceleration = 0.0;
   lifetimeMS           = 2000;
   lifetimeVarianceMS   = 500;
   useInvAlpha          = true;
   spinRandomMin        = -90.0;
   spinRandomMax        = 500.0;
   colors[0]     = "0.56 0.36 0.26 1.0";
   colors[1]     = "0.56 0.36 0.26 1.0";
   colors[2]     = "0.36 0.21 0.21 0.4";
   colors[3]     = "0 0 0 0";
   sizes[0]      = 0.52;
   sizes[1]      = 1.25;
   sizes[2]      = 1.75;
   sizes[3]      = 2.95;
   times[0]      = 0.0;
   times[1]      = 0.2;
   times[2]      = 0.5;
   times[3]      = 1.0;
};

datablock ParticleEmitterData(flameoneemitter)
{
   ejectionPeriodMS = 73;
   periodVarianceMS = 50;
   ejectionVelocity = 1.5;
   velocityVariance = 0.5;
   ejectionOffset   = 0.0;
   thetaMin         = 90;
   thetaMax         = 90;
   phiReferenceVel  = 0;
   phiVariance      = 360;
   overrideAdvances = false;
   particles = "flameone";
};

but when i load a game to play it says
You do not have the correct version of the torque game engine or any related art needed to connect to this server. Please contact the server operator to obtain the latest version. missing particle texture: game/data/flame01.png and wehn i had it in game/data/shapes/tanks/ it was missing particle texture: game/data/shapes/tanks/flame01.png

Help?

Luke you made a new texture is it the right size and type of picture?

Posted: **Sun Sep 14, 2008 10:36 pm**

I know how to make weapons and emmiters but after i edit and save my special.cs I go to my server and the weapons are the same. I think its my special.cs.dso but i dont know how to fix it and i'm hoping someone here does.

When you make changes to the special.cs you have to delete the special.cs.dso before you restart the server in order that the changes take effect. Its the same when making changes to any .cs file, always delete the .dso.

To add to ACASv3 it's much easier now... I wonder why you're still using the slower and older ACASv2 :P

Luke your texture location is messed up it says ~data/flame
If you have your texture in your data folder move it it will only cause confusion
