Is this right I extract the banshee meta
from here right
[vehi] Vehicle
then
objects/vehicles/banshee/banshee
then hit extract meta save that then I clicked
objects/vehicles/spectre/turrets/plasma/plasma_turrets
then I inject meta and I saved tried to test it nothing happens I want to have the other people see a turret and able to fly it and I see ghost but it looks like turret for them and Im able to fly it.
Can you kinda explain a little more in little steps Im kinda of a nood at modding. Remember Im trying to do this in DotHalo

You have to copy the meta offset of the banshee and paste it where the spectre turret's meta offset is. I know that this should make the spectre turret flyable for everyone excep for you. I'm not sure that this next part will work, but you can try. Change the hlmt of the spectre turret back to the spectre turret. Then, under spectre, make the seat that is normally the seat be the driver seat. Then see if this lets you fly the turret.
Edit: Oh, I didnt see that you wanted to be able to fly it looking like a ghost. If that is the case, then you also need to paste the meta offset where the ghost's meta offset should be, then change the hlmt to ghost. Skip the last part I said before this edit (the one that I said that I hadn't tried it yet), it will not be needed; You will be able to fly the ghost and people will see you flying it, you will be able to fly the spectre turret also, but it will also look like a ghost. Have Fun!

True. Only non-host can fly the turret, but if you make your hlmt a banshee, then you fly a banshee and they see a turret.

Well, if you do what I said with the spectre turret and the ghost, not only will they be able to fly turrets, but everyone will see you fly the ghost when you get into it, you will also be able to fly the turrets and the banshee, but they will look like ghosts. I don't know if you saw what I said, but I also put a way that might let you fly the turret and you see it, but I have to check that out later tonight, so don't try that part if you don't want to. . . Find what?

Well wat I said is right yes ok. But when I try it it doesn't work. To make sure were seeing eye to eye read this
[vehi] Vehicle
then
objects/vehicles/banshee/banshee
then hit extract meta save that then I clicked
objects/vehicles/spectre/turrets/plasma/plasma_turrets

I meant fly not find i was writing fast.
What i was thinking is that there are alot of unknowns reflexives that vehicles have and none of the turrets have im sure one of those reflexives has to do with the controls of driving or flight if we could add chunks to those reflexives we may be able to make turrets that everyone can fly and see fly even in 3rd person flight cam.
Ill look into it more and give some more details
OK
