Hey guys im trying to make the comanche fire some sort of laser beam. However i cannot find the correct laser bone to fire the laser out of its 20mm cannonn model.

i tried using 'TurretFX' and 'Muzzle' which i took from it's W3D ModuleTag coding but it's all still wrong.

Does anyone know the correct bone name?

the lasers are wierd, the bone that the visual effects comes from is named in the weapon's inis. See what the firebone is for the Comanche, then make a new weapon for the Comanche to use.

Mabey this can help;


Weapon CAT-BeamWeapon
PrimaryDamage = 5.0
PrimaryDamageRadius = 1.0
ScatterRadiusVsInfantry = 0.0
AttackRange = 220.0
DamageType = EXPLOSION
DeathType = EXPLODED
WeaponSpeed = 999999.0
LaserName = Lazr_PatriotLaserBeam
LaserBoneName = 101
FireFX = Lazr_WeaponFX_LaserCrusader
RadiusDamageAffects = ALLIES ENEMIES NEUTRALS
DelayBetweenShots = 90 ; time between shots, msec
ClipSize = 0 ; how many shots in a Clip (0 == infinite)
ClipReloadTime = 0 ; how long to reload a Clip, msec
AutoReloadsClip = Yes
AntiAirborneVehicle = No
AntiAirborneInfantry = No
AntiGround = Yes
AntiBallisticMissile = No
ProjectileCollidesWith = STRUCTURES
End
Just replace whats listed at LaserBoneName with the Comanche's firing bone's name, and change the Comanche weaponset so it uses this.

You can also change any of the other peramiters if you want.
