How can I spawn a MagicBullet from playerangles, like the weapon was fired? I tried a couple ways (using as "base" scripts from iw5 used in 4D1) but nothing worked at all

Could you post what you have tried so we can see what your doing wrong.
Magic bullet should only really require a weaponfile and the vector at which you're shooting.

Code Snippet

Plaintext

magicbullet("ray_gun", self.origin, target.origin); //self = player

Code Snippet

Plaintext

forward = anglesToForward(self GetPlayerAngles());
magicbullet("ray_gun", self.origin,forward ); //self = player

Edit, I have a working script for t5m, I tried to modify it using WaW terms

The first one should work, the second one no.

Maybe it doesn't work because it's a projectile weapon? Have you tried with a bullet-weapon?

It worked, lol
Is there a way to shoot in the direction the player is facing? (player angles?)

^^^

Code Snippet

Plaintext


	pos = self.origin;
	pos = (pos[0],pos[1],(pos[2]+self GetPlayerViewHeight()));

	fw = anglestoforward( self getplayerangles() );
	impact = pos + vectorscale( fw, 3000 );
	trace = bullettrace( pos, impact, true, self );
 
	if( isdefined( trace["position"] ) )
	{
		magicbullet("zombie_colt", self.origin, trace["position"]);
	}

Maybe only this'll do:

	pos = self.origin;
	pos = (pos[0],pos[1],(pos[2]+self GetPlayerViewHeight()));

	fw = anglestoforward( self getplayerangles() );
	impact = pos + vectorscale( fw, 3000 );

	magicbullet("zombie_colt", self.origin, impact );

There is a little problem (not really), the player takes damage from the magicBullet, but the weapon I'm using does 0 damage, so whatever, thanks a lot

Edit: Can it be fixed?
