I made a weapon and how do i make it that it blocks melee and weapon attack?How do i make it that it reflects these bullets ?

Hello anymone?I want to make it like the Jackal shield.

Good question (it's not really a bump, it's only been 3 days)

Ok i found out it protects me from granades and from some meele attack but not from shooting.

Hmm. I guess (just an educated guess, never tried this before) that you could create a model like the Jackal shield and skin it etc etc and then make the material type the same as the Covie plasma shield (the little glowing purple thingy). It would be VERY similar to the Jackal shield. Now how you do this, I don't know. Care to send me your "weapon" so I can play around with it. I don't have 3DS Max so I can't make it myself.

yes i know the jackal shield.I tried to find some info about the jackal shield but i couldn't find it.Wait i have an idea.....

Make the Surface be a force feild. Make sure its collision has a certian # of health (like 150)

how do i change the surface prperties?with the collision health i did that.maybe i check again some stuff.i DON'T KNOW WHAT ALL FIELDS MEAN(sry for caps)

In the bitmaps tag make sure it says force feild for matireal.

oh i set wood you mean the shaders

ok here is what i set:

Yea, bitmaps, shaders. Not much of a diffrence to me.

I changed it to jackal shield and the only thing that change was the sounds.For the guys who don't get what my prob is here is a vid:

Edit:Sry that the video is a little bit broken but the point is it protects someone from nades and from certain meele attack but not from shots.

Iam not sure of your problem. I dont think what you want it to do is 100% possable.

it has to be cause it is like a jackal shield

Your giving it health, thats a bad thing. That means once the Health reaches 0 or lower it will be destroyed, or simply not work.
Do you want it to be a energy shield? Or just like a old fation sheild like the spartans,persions,knights,etc used? If its not a energy shield then make it have a high health and a good breaking effect. But thats just for realistic things.

I want an old facion shield.But as you can see i have my heath over 100000 so it should prtects me the whole time.Should i maybe sent you the tags?I think you have better experience with that

Open the tags for the scenery file that is that energy shield, then you can use that data to understand how you can make a jackal shield. It uses nodes where you want the shield

ok tnx i'm on vacation right now so i will work on it when i'm late.I'm working on that new mod and its going to be great!
