Unless it's multisectioned or a mech, any HVA from the game will work just fine. Wink

actualy no it wont you need the hva to set the turret in the right place.... which reminds me i have some stuff for clazzy...

No, no, no, no, NO! The turret is scaled into position with the header scales (min/max boundaries) in the voxels themselves. The turret is then aligned along the length of the tank through the "TurretOffset=nn" in the Art.ini file.

Look at how WW did it with their work, and just copy it. It is such a simple thing to do, and yet I keep hearing all this crap about alignining with HVAs. People, aligning with HVAs is like using TibEd to do the coding. It is ONLY okay as a quick bodge, or if you don't know any better.

but thats a hassle and means youd have to give the alignment value with your voxel when you posted it. nah

And modders wonder why public assets are usually of such poor quality.

Saying that is like making an SHP in the wrong pallete and saying "I can't be bothered to do it properly; somebody else can convert it when they download it for use".

Also, aligning the turret properly takes me as long as doing it wrongly with the HVA. Besides, since you're including a README file with credits in the download anyway, you may as well add the "TurretOffset=nn" value to the text file.

The "hassle" is what makes a voxel polished and professional. I find that too many ppl's work is sloppy, half-assed and full of mistakes.

in english Gilbear demands the best and rightfully so Rolling Eyes

also not including turretoffset IS LAZY.

I agree with Gilbear. If you're not willing to put the effort into doing something like a voxel offset, then don't bother making voxels.
How would you like it if you had to manually find out the correct turret offset when making a mod because one person neglected to include one line of coding?

its the same with turret positioning on structures, however if the work if of exceptional quality.

im really not sure how it makes any sort of difference how the turret offset is set, really whats the difference?

Its the difference between a crap unit and good unit, an obvious example would be to remove the turret offset from say [HVR] or [TELE]

but if the turret is ligned correctly by the hva then does it matter?

Some turrets aren't centered on the body so the HVA can't really help. Look at the Magnetron it's turret is much farther back so a TurretOffset= is required.
