Battlefield 1942 Mods, Modding Tutorials & Forums

Hi bfmods guys!

Last weeks I readed a lot of code from bf1942 and bfv and started testing some code lines.
Recently I saw that the models of the heatseeking missiles and bombs from bfv doesn't turn with the projectile's trajectory. Such thing doesn't happen in 1942 (I could only test the bombs, because there is no seeker code...), and I would like to change that to start making a bfv mod.
Does someone knows how the bf1942's bomb turning works?

What do you mean by "turn"?

I think he is talking about smart missiles that automatically select a target and fly at it.

I meant that the bombs point to the ground some time after relase.

Ohhhh.... That is different. this is it. as it is, it has no gravity effect. increase it, and it will hit the ground faster. Note a higher velocity does not effect time to hitting the ground. This is also true in real life. a bullet is fire horizontally and at the same time another bullet is dropped from the same height, the bullets hit the ground at the same time. The velocity will just change the max range of the gun.

had to edit... the image was too big to post as img.

Have you tried to attach a wing far behind the projectile? Or something to drag the back end so that the front end will drop...

I will try that. Thanks.
