Hi All,

I've a brain lock-up with the gunstations + Guns for the A-20C Havoc. :emptiness:

It's the rearward facing dorsal gun. The x, y, z is set for gunstations. My problem is with [guns.X] parameters.
How to get the angle of the barrel matching trajectory. Gun flash matching barrel muzzle. Never been down this road before.

; Rear Gunner Upper 50 BMG
gunstation.2=0,52,2,0.08,870,2,0.01,500,2,40,1d1*18.4,0,1.4,-4.77,-15.0,0,180,-60.0,60.0,15.0,-45.0,5.184

[guns.2]
gun.0=400,0.555,0,0,0,0,1,400 <----- these parameters are killing me. :banghead:

If needed, I can send the whole aircraft. Just leave a PM and I will provide a link.

Thanks In Advance,
Dave
 
The gun flash effect was never meant to seen with angled guns. There is no way to rotate the gun flash effect sadly.

Thanks for clearing that one up Allen. After all these years you think I would have noticed that.
Pssst, if I didn't notice it maybe no one else will. :wink-new: Shhhh..
