[REL | THREAD] STINGER DROP MOD

[PatrickW]

I made this some time ago, but never made a decent showroom topic for it.

 

With this mod you can drop stingers (police spike-strips) behind your cars, by pressing the regular 'shoot' button. Each stinger will be active for 10 seconds.

 

Instructions

Add this to the OBJECT LIST ( don't forget to increase the OBJECT count )

 

DEFINE OBJECT PLC_STINGER 

 

add this to the regular list of other create_thread opcodes

 

004F: create thread ££stinger_sniff_thread 

 

 

Insert these two threads somewhere between the other threads in the MAIN-part e.g. just above the "HOT" thread.

Beware that you might have to change -204 (PLC_STINGER) near the top, to have the correct index for the PLC_STINGER object you inserted above.

If you want to have it only on a particular type you should replace

 

00DF:   actor $PLAYER_ACTOR driving

with

00DD:   actor $PLAYER_ACTOR driving vehicle type #ANGEL

 

Offcoarse, you can use any other type instead of #ANGEL

 

 

For those without Mission-Builder, Here you can download a pre-build version based on the "Totally_stripped" scm.

 

Have fun,

good work i will use this

[Y_Less]

Hmm, nice one Patrick.

[timmy2004]

Nice idea. Th first ever thing I thought of when I knew their were mods for GTAVC was personal spike strips. Thanks pat.

[spaceeinstein]

Hey Patrick, can I use your mod in my mod (again)?

[PatrickW]

Sure, no prob, you know the drill ..

[perkin]

Oh, I've implemented to my normal scm, but somehow the tire just didn't deflat, no matter it's the car behind me nor any car nears it, the strip is there though(I can see the strip), does anybody know why?

[PatrickW]

Nope, I don't know, works always for me, and haven't had complains from other people yet.

If you drop a stinger and drive backwards, does it deflate your own tires, like it should.

 

If not, double check if you got everthing done as described,If that still doesn't help, try to upload you main.scm.txt file somewhere and put a link here, so I can check your version.

 

[perkin]

Oh I use ur scm and having fun from it, thankq..

I'll figure out the difference of ur scm to mine later. hee~

 

very cool mod~ now it's like playing NFS:high stake

Sorry to bump an older topic Patrick (I'm not sure even WHY this is an old topic, seems like a fantastic mod), but when I try to compile, it doesn't know what to do with this code:

 

[email protected] = 0

 

Is there something I'm missing, or am I using a different version of MB. Using 0.33 I think

Noob in need!

 

Thanks

 

Edit: Crap...I just realised this was for Vice. Sorry!

Would this be able to be modified for use in SA?

[ThAtSgOtTaHuRt]

cool, good job. see there are ways to deflate tires and shut off engines, but how to you INflate tires and turn ON engines? anyway good job on the mod!

sorry to bump a very old topic, but is there not a simpler way of getting stingers/spike strips on cars? like a cleo mod? i dont understand how to do this, im relatively new to modding gta.

[Narcis_speed6]

seriously dude, a 5 years old bump?

there is always a private message buton there, next time use it to contact the creator of the mod
