actually darkblade, that bit's armoured too :)

and sorry if i didnt explain properly duo, but everything is made of materials. it's all in materials.ini. their armour at the moment is Kevlared Flesh, military stuff and civilian stuff i think. if you want it to be ceramite you're gunna have to tell the program what cermaite is like, seeing as how it's a space marine thing it hasnt been coded in CC. so you copy a material to modify into ceramite...

Code:
AddMaterial = Material
   Index = 42
   PresetName = Ceramite
   Bounce = 0.6
   Friction = 0.6
   StructuralIntegrity = 100
   DensityKGPerVolumeL = 5
   GibImpulseLimitPerVolumeL = 50
   GibWoundLimitPerVolumeL = 1.0
   Priority = 15
   SettleMaterial = 149
   TransformsInto = 12
   Color = Color
      R = 140
      G = 140
      B = 85
   UseOwnColor = 1


now, that is by no means a well done ceramite copy, all i changed from the armoured flesh mat earlier is the index number, the structural integrity, the density, and the gib limits. now it's probably overpowered vs everything up to a high caliber sniper bullet.

to test it copy it to the top of your space marine "marine.ini"

then go through and replace all the materials on the arms and legs and helmets and torso with your ceramite. Try not to replace the mats on the gibs or the head. would be kinda weird if all of a sudden their foreheads were bulletproof. i dont care how much a fanboy you are, that's not in the fluff :)

and then, "whalaa!" ceramite...

fo course if you dont like it, try changing the values on the ceramite...

have fun :)

also the undefined number is the index number, there's only a certain number of materials, so you need to find an index number that's not being used... see the 42 in the code above...

Well, it's practically kevlar plated rubber, as bullets do penetrate, as long as they are solid slugs.

So just for clarification:

Density messes with the weight of the object/armor while gib limits messes with how long until the armor gibs or would that be the Structural Integrity?

I'm going to start with the Ultramarines and go from there with the armor.

This is from Marine.ini:


Material = Material
CopyOf = Military Stuff
Resolution = 4
Depth = 0
DeepCheck = 0
JointStrength = 400
JointStiffness = 0.1 //0.1
// BreakWound = AEmitter
// CopyOf = Wound Bone Break
JointOffset = Vector
X = 0
Y = 0
DrawAfterParent = 1
GibImpulseLimit = 6500 //4.5k
GibWoundLimit = 40
// GibSound = Sound
// CopyOf = Bone Crack



The thing thats bolded/underlined/italicized I would replace with "cremite" or whatever I put into Materials.ini right? Is that all I would have to change?

EDIT: I added your code into Materials.ini and changed stuff in Marine.ini to ceramite.

Now I got an RTB or whatever aborted saying that the UseOwnColor = 1 is a problem. It says that it could not match property in line blah blah blah blah blah. I narrowed it down to UseOwnColor = 1.

Also, when it says something like Index 4 is undefined, that means I can use it right?

density also effects what can penetrate if i remember correctly...

Duo9ace wrote:

also, yeah that's the bit you replace...

but the material should go into marine.ini, i make sure to never change base.rte not after what i accidentally did to my copy of build 19, that also makes mods self sufficient.

also, yeah you should either set UseOwnColor = 0, or delete that line, i'm not sure how needed it is...

yes, but you want to make sure that it actually is undefined, i think #4 is being used, but the undefined bit is commented out..

yeah, i just checked, and #4 is being used for Xenocronium

yeah :) you're probably right, i agree that's probably the weakest point in their armour...

Haha, nice mod! The Heavy Bolter eats dropships like candy! I've made a mountain of junk to the west of Maginot!

'Course, you need an Assault Marine to boost outta the way fast enough when they fall... ;D

So, working on a lascannon yet?

What he needs is heavy flamer and assault cannon for termies, and a dreadnaught.

May I use your beam gun(don't know the name) code to make my own beam cannon?

Lol, thanks. I'll give creds Come to think of it, this mod is just other peoples code and sprites with modified atomgroups. I probably won't release it because none of it's mine :D .

Hey guys, just wondering if you could help me with a little problem I've been having with the mod...

I'm getting an error message which reads:

'Abortion in file.\system\reader.cpp, line 530, because: Referring to an instance ('tiny smoke ball 1') to copy from that hasn't been defined! in SM.rte/devices/weapons/machineguns/bolt pistol.ini at line 59!'

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Um, try re-downloading/installing. There's absolutely no reason you should get that error considering that everything required is in the .rar file.

If that doesn't work, look for the part of the 'bolt pistol.ini' (open in notepad) at 59 where it's referencing the 'tiny smoke ball 1' and comment out the entire section.

Should look like this, it's the // that makes CC not read it. Also there are two section that reference the tiny smoke ball, make sure to get both.

Quote:
//AddEmission = Emission
//EmittedParticle = MOSParticle
//CopyOf = Tiny Smoke Ball 1
//InstanceName = Sniper Smoke 1
//LifeTime = 200
//GlobalAccScalar = 0.0
//ParticlesPerMinute = 1
//BurstSize = 5
//Spread = 0.3
//MaxVelocity = 1
//MinVelocity = 0
