I duplicated a thor and made a new Hand Cannon attack for it and duplicated the nessesary effects\actors for it and linked up the Events to the actors to use the new Hand Cannon, but when my thor attacks it shoots twice like normal except it shoots 2 blasts outta one arm instead of using both, any ideas why this wud happen?
go look at the attach method for the thor. you have to go duplicate the one from the original and for "drivers" put in the id of your new effect. also don't forget to replace the old attach method w/ the new one.
i was searching for "attach method" and i finally realized it was in the Data Type menu lol..... well anyway i did what u said and i duplicated the Attach Method for Thor and changed the Drivers to my new Thor and it still didnt work and i didnt know how to replace the old attach method with the new one cause im noob lol, well anyway i found something like that under Launch Attachment Query and found the "driver" pattern there and changed it to my duplicated one and it worked, not sure if thats what u meant? Nonetheless thanks gizmachu for your help.
One more problem, i cant seem to do the same steps for the Javelin Missles like i did everything for the hand cannons....i can get the missles to shoot cept they come from in between the feet but the missle flaps open up and the smoke comes out on the thor.....i wish this shit jus linked itself together lol....
For the missiles to come from the chest openings, you have to duplicate the "AM Pattern Thor AA" and change the driver to your new effect, then put that into the Launch Attachment Query.
there is no "AM Pattern Thor AA" there is only "Pattern Thor AA" and i already duplicated it and changed the driver to my new effect and changed it in the launch attachment query, still no work :\
The thor attachment methods just assure that the unit correctly switches between weapons. This is so it shoots both arm cannons, not the same one twice. If the missiles aren't launched from the right place to begin with, the other attachment is wrong, the one that says something like AMWeapon00.
but its the same as the original? Even after deleting/changing it still fires inbetween the thors feet
{Edit} I finally found the problem, i forgot to change "Missle" under the "Thor AA Attack Copy" actor to "ThorAAattackMissle2" instead of the original "ThorAAattackMissle"
this was driving me nuts :| thanks for the help guys
