func tank how to use shells and sound Created 20 years ago2004-07-10 16:07:39 UTC by zeeba-G

i know how to make a real good tank and everything i just wanted to ask two things.
?#1- How do you make the gun shoot shells out of its side when fired?,, i know the shell model name, but i just wanted to know what to use to be triggered to shoot out the shells(ive done it with gibs b4 but i forgot how)
?#2- How do you give your gun sound, i got the sounds but what field do you put the name in? -=++THX A LOT IN ADVANCED++=-

Tried to read this one already? At the end it describes how to get what you want:

env_shooter.

WAV name.

thx a lot man! but i guess you cant get the env shooter to move with the gun so i guess the best thing to do is put it right where the origin is
Wow ive gotten pretty good at mapping maybe ill try to compile this map and put it in the map vault (sp map)

hey some one told me that the name for the shells was shell.mdl but when i typed it in it didnt work, is there anything else i gotta write with that or is it a dif name? lol i got it to work with sprites/flare.spr but how should i type the shell.mdl ? ? ? ? thx...

You can start by unpacking your pak - you can find out how to do that from the hammer help file

i dont have hammer and i cant install half life correctly because of my crappppppyyyy comp so cant you please tell me what its called for shells .my comp hardly allows me to even create maps and it wont let me view the files. it would help me so mutch if anyone new of a website that showed everything like all the models sprites and stuff.
