I'd assume so, it's been done in HL (I think) and i always see scripted grunts shooting at things. Something to do with info_targets i think..?

It's probably easier to set up an explosion where you want it, and add a "flying missile" sound. Make the illusion of the apache firing a missile.

I have the same question but for source.

They did it in Hl1. I remember now, in the level with the dam, the apache shot the brigde that leads to the tower with the button that stops the fans.
I can also make it shoot a barney if I have to.

decompiling = shit
it doesn't work very good... and entities ends up to be little here and there

Run it through with "developer 2". That shows entity types as well as names, doesn't it? "Firing env_explosion 'foo'"?

Not funny!Woa.
There is no squence in hl1 its just apache's angle to the creature.And while having that missle launced into the dam.There was an alien slave in there.So apache(AI) automaticly launches its missles(according to its angle to the ground[alien slave]).But I've seen missles that been shot from somewhere else not from an apache.In chemical existence and heart of evil.I better check them again.I'll post an example map when I figure it out

decompiling = shitUm, no. The brushwork gets borked, but the entities are competely unaffected.

Decompiling is a valuble tool that nobody should discount...not to copy other's work--or make de_dust clones lol--, but to see how certain things are done.

Saco that'll be really nice. I think I'll just make the apache a prisoner and make two env_beams with a glow in their end as missles. The end of the beam will follow a invisible func_train that will trigger the explotions. After the missles explodes I'll just kill the beams and trains.
Much easier... that depends on if a chopper will follow scripts. :
Sorry for all the questions that I ask without testing, it's for a part from a map I didn't build yet, but I will soon.
