Help Ballistic Knife Projectile

[Madnesslink5]

Trying to find a way to add to the NadeTraining mod a way to follow ballistic knives through the air (I guess it must be possible if its on game winning killcam).

For any other sort of grenades/tomahawk it is

Code:

self PlayerLinkToDelta( grenade, undefined, 0.5 );
            self setorigin(grenade.origin);

However I've tried many things with ballistic but can't get it to work, anyone know?

im lead to beleve its a missile not sure but can only try

Code:

self waittill ( "missile_fire", missile, weaponName );
//link to missile

Code:

            for(;;)
            {
                self waittill ( "missile_fire", missile, weaponName );
                Camera = spawn("script_model", missile.origin);
                Camera.angles = (self getPlayerAngles());
                Camera setModel("tag_origin");
                self CameraSetLookAt(Camera);
                self CameraSetPosition(Camera);
                self CameraActivate(true);
                self thread disableOnDeath(Camera);
                self thread Death(Camera);
                Camera linkTo(missile);
                while(isDefined(missile))
                {
                    wait 0.05;
                }
                Camera delete();
                self CameraActivate(false);
                wait 0.05;
            }

Works, but there is 1 problem.
The camera is facing downwards.
Any tip on fixing that? I want it to face the same way as you are looking, or even better, the same way as the ballknife.

yep I did this it's simple and it works xD

Code:

betheknife()    
{
        self endon("death");
        self endon("disconnect");


    for(;;)
    {
                self waittill ( "missile_fire", missile, weaponName );
                self PlayerLinkToDelta( missile, undefined, 0.5 );
    }
}

but that links the player to it, it doesnt just make the camera follow it

[rotceh_dnih]

yea but it works ,looks good , and he did say he was trying to do the same as nade traning and thats what this does ,so with your code the camera follows the knife and the player stays where they are ?

yep. and he can run around while it flies, and when it hits something he gets his normal camera view back. works perfect with grenade but you cant really see shit with ballknives

sounds cool hmm is it to do with the set position like whats this mean

Code:

C:\Users\Hector\Desktop\gscrawrip\raw\maps\mp\gametypes\_dev.gsc (1 hits)
    Line 1002:                     player CameraSetPosition( viewpos, ( 90, getnorthyaw(), 0 ) );

Wasn't aware of the second argument, I'll let you know when I've tested it, thanks.

I made a new version of nadetraining mod, which follow ballistic knives grenade launchers etc all very well.

I'll post a new topic about the mod tomorrow after my exam
