ok... this is kinda fun... im making a cow launcher (press a button and a cow goes flying out)

however, i need the cow to launch in a VERY SPECIFIC path, and land in one spot. i though it was fun, and addicting at the same time... for anyone else who wants to give it a try, here is the RMF file:

http://files.dodnetwork.com/download.php?userid=111&imagel=dod_atrac_cow.rmf

now, the ent your looking for is ON THE COW (env_shooter)

modify the angles properly to get it to land in the crater. the map cieling may need to be raised for this to work. to test it press the button in the middle of the sky area (there is a brick post there)

the angles:
ok, PITCH is the up/down angle, needs to be between:
90-180

the YAW is the rotating angle, this needs to be between:
160-180

you may also need to change the Gib Velocity

please note that the map looks like poop, cause i just deleted a bunch of stuff from the map its gonna be in so i could see better/have less compile time.

if you do happen to get the cow into the crater, please give me the angles you used!!!!


(yea yea, i know, this post is horribly organised... things popped into my head as i went and couldnt organise it...)

Reminds me of GingerLords Source map with the two cannons you can stuff things into and launch across the map.

whats really fun in source is making a big ass fuel dump and blowing it up with one bullet, not to mention 1fps :d

I was asking about Ginger Lord's cannon map. (not that I won't play yours too)
