yeah that would really be great for the halo mod

opps forgot to put an edit in this I worked it out minutes after posting this its just a case of rotating the weapon null objects in XSI, currently have my ship releasing a 3d wave of missiles (2 straight, 2 at 65 degrees up and down left and right) makes for a nice 3d pincer look, ill upload a pic later.

although another Q, any body know how to make a weapon affect an objects position aka make a ship get thrown around due to the power of the impact. That and is there an option in sins to make damage instant, ive noticed that it takes my game a good few seconds to apply the damage from weapons to an enemy ship and with the speed of some of my weapons it makes them really annoying to use and eventually balance.

So far I know of two damage apply methods, that is "backloaded" which basically means damage is applied separate from actual weapon fire (I assume this is for sync reasons for multiplayer or something) and "overtime" which is used for beams. You can play dumb and try putting in "onhit" or "instant" but don't blame me if your comp blows up in yer face.

the two groups of missiles going up and down look a bit odd, but apart form that, great work, especially on the frigate

What happens if you apply this effect to a beam or particle weapon?

I think you can do 0 degree fire arc's with weapons used as abilities like the TEC Kol Destroyer Gauss gun.

I know of no other way to restrict fire arcs, they all seem to be hemispherical and it is something of a problem.

I just have to say I really love that ship design and it's weapon firing
