what i mean by adding them as props is that it would be cool to have the planes, helicopters, sentry gun, etc as a spawnable prop so you can built a scene with an ac-130 or a stealth bomber flying around

[QUOTE=LavaFlaminG6;28991645]True, this is pretty "awesome." Unfortunately, they do not work online with other people. It's possible that I have missed something and it actually does say how to somewhere else on the forum. But for all I know, using them online makes your player take out a laser mine that doesn't work either. Hopefully there is a way to get these working online, and if not, hopefully the ability to use them online can be added steadily one by one.
I read something about flares and what-not, but there really aren't any point to them if online doesn't work, right?[/QUOTE]
they do work online (at least when i played with a couple of friends).
in order for them to work the host and everyone else has to have the killstreaks installed
Alright, maybe my friend just didn't have the most recent version.

Sorry for the double post, but it wasn't very hard to make one due to how inactive this forum seems to be... The killstreaks don't work online. Well, accept for the UAV and maybe the Counter and the EMP. But, all others that require creation of an object such as the care package, create the heli-copter/airplane etc. but the object freezes at the spawn and doesn't move, including the predator missile. Any ideas?

Do you see a red error model instead of the model that it is suppose to be? if not, are there any errors in the console
Do the killstreaks require that the map have certain features like a 3D skybox or something? I've messed around with them on various maps and occasionally they won't work. (i.e care package never arrives, precision airstrike doesn't appear at all or the planes don't appear)

No, I see everything perfectly, such as the Helicopter and the AC-130, but they freeze at a standstill point in a corner of the map (or wherever they spawn at )
This also happens for the Predator Missile, but I only know because I see through the HUD, and I'm frozen above the map. I have to reconnect to the server for it to go back to normal.

Well there is a requirement for them to work on a map. First There needs to be a skybox, i believe a 3d skybox works too. There also needs to be a certain amount of height between the ground and the sky. Also the point (0,0,0) has to be in the map some where

Well does the host see any errors in their console, it sounds like the entity's are not getting pushed. I'll test it out later on a sever to see what the issue may be if it is the addon.
could you make that there pops up a message like for the ac-130 when you try to use a killstreak when the skybox is too small
Is this for the server that has the cod mod on it?
[QUOTE=tobiderfisch;29157458]could you make that there pops up a message like for the ac-130 when you try to use a killstreak when the skybox is too small[/QUOTE]
It should already do that, same with the predator missile
So the biggest bugs I come up against are with the airdrop killstreaks. Is there anything I should know about them that would help me fix or avoid the problem? I can't deduce the right "conditions" for using them, because they'll work one one map but not on the next one that's similar.
this is awesome! i love this
suggestion:
can you make the predator missile controllable with the mouse? or freeze the player, because if (for example) im on the top of a skycraper , when i use the predator missile i move and fall :S
sorry for my english
greetings ;)

Well your not suppose to move when using the predator missile, i will have to look into that.

are you using the svn or the download from garrysmod website?
maybe the version from the website still has the bug for moving while using the predator

Yes it would, because Garry updated garrysmod and it broke that feature, but i had fixed it.
I tested on a number of maps, care pack never arrives, same goes for Sentry and EM Airdrop... I know this is probably because of the skyboxes, but hey if it doesnt work in flatgrass..... Darn.

Well your problem is that your not using the svn version, your using the one from garrysmod.org, which is really outdated
I used svn + the models found on garrysmod.org... But, I tested it on a map with several "layers" of ground... And strangely enough it worked, but killstreaks only worked in the second upper layer out of 4, not the top layer LOL (map is called something like sgc_flatworlds_v3). I swear I got the SVN :/ But stuff like stealth bomber, harrier etc are working on flatgrass, I believe at least...
So, whats up with the EMP? What is it doing, really? :p
Anyways when Im done complaining, very cool addon, better than the "real" MW2 as that sucks haha :p

Well its hard to get them to work on every map, because every map is built differently.
I find the ground from the origin (0,0,0), problem being that i don't know if that point is even in the world, but it should be, and if there are different ground levels it can screw everything up, i might go back and change it so that it gets the point from the users location instead, it should make things easier.
I thought you had said that the care package didn't work on flatgrass, i know that is a problem with the version from garrysmod.org, because i screwed up with how it would fly, if the drop zone was to far away it would get off course and not make it to the drop zone, that's fixed in the svn and it can cross all of flatgrass and still make the drop point.
would it may be possible to make the user of the ac-130 able to set the point the ac-130 circles?
[QUOTE=Wizey!;20029612]Seems like the UAV is just that old "Over head map" mod from a while ago with an added Scan line on it... Just sayin'[/QUOTE]
that's why you needed to self rate right
Speaking of AC-130s, what is it that determines the point it circles around? Is it a spot that's x meters or so in front of where the player is looking, because I've noticed that I'll be able to see myself, but I'm not being circled by it.

i beleve it is the point 0,0,0 in the map

It spawns 2000 units behind the way the player is facing, if it cant spawn there, then it spawns at the players position.
Awesome pack.
I also wanna report some glitches it have when playing with friends:
When I call a predator missile I move while pressing W, A, D, S.
When I use a Stealth Bomber, Harriers, or Precision Airstrike, I stuck with the laptop after settuping where to explodes and the Strike never accour.
just that xD
Awesome pack tho (as I said before xD)
I'm having one problem with the SVN. In Garry's Mod it says I have Version 43, but even after I update it it stays the same, and Version 52 is the newest. Any reason why?

I'm not sure whats causing that, try starting over with the checkout, create a new folder and re-download everything, it may fix it.

Does this only happen when playing on a server? or does it happen during single player too?

yes, i made a mistake, i said that when i had an old version of the killstreaks, now it works excellent :D
greetings
[editline]25th April 2011[/editline]
only a suggestion:
can you make the AC130 "medium missile" more accurate? because it doesnt explode where i aim.
[QUOTE=Death dealer142;29404263]I'm not sure whats causing that, try starting over with the checkout, create a new folder and re-download everything, it may fix it.[/QUOTE]
Works now :D Not to be mean/rush you, but when do you expect any new killstreaks to be added?
