Ivan Bomb to C4 explosive cursor

lionRA2forums · Disk Thrower **Joined**: 17 Feb 2016

I would like to transform an Ivan Bomb cursor into the C4 cursor using an SHP of the C4 — like the one PillBox20 made for his SEALs.

But how do I do this?

I sense that you will have many more questions... for that I am sending you a link to the ARES documentation:
http://ares-developers.github.io/Ares-docs/

There you will search for Ivan Bombs and other interresting features.

I suggest you save this link. Smile

If you want to change the game cursor however, that might not be possible. The animation I made is long for the cursor file.

Perhaps someone with better knolledge can help out.

That's a badly made tutorial on how to change the IvanBomb but I'll see what I can do.

SabotageCursor=yes. Might be mistyping it, so check the fake C4 Tanya uses against vehicles in YR which has that tag.

And this will only change the cursor to the mouse.sha's C4 animation. That's the best you can do.

Nice this gave the C4 cursor. How do I make the TNT image be instead a C4 once it's placed on the unit?

IvanBomb.Image= controls the attached c4s image but, you can't edit the cursor itself.

What do I equate IvanBomb.Image= to, SabotageCursor or a SHP of a C4?
Does IvanBomb.Image= go in Weapons or Warheads?

You need to write name of SHP file to IvanBomb.Image=

It goes to weapon like other IvanBomb. tags.

IvanBomb doesn't have an image in weapons. Thanks though, this worked perfectly!
