monster_generic Created 18 years ago2006-01-29 12:48:56 UTC by HeAdCrAb KILLA

I am trying to set up the monster_generic entity to display an apache without the animation. I just want the chopper to sit there. Every time I set it up (since the "floor" of the model is above it) the model is misplaced. It ends up in the map's floor! Even when I raised the monster_generic in the editor, it still happened. WTF. Is there some kind of special key value or something?

Try the cycler entity.

Nope, didn't work either. I've seen this done before in singleplayer mod but I couldn't decomplile the map so I could see it set up for some reason. I'm stumped on this one.

It did that once, in an old map of mine. Lets see...

Ah, i just used the monster_apache entity, and set the following properties:

Name: chopper (required, even if you not plan to trigger it)

Flags:
Gag, Prisonar, Start Inactive

That seemd to work for me.

There's a "start inactive" flag...holy crap there is. I can probably make this work now. Thanks!

Only one question, were the chopper blades spinning?

Yes.
