you want to set the turret and barrel to the centre in HVA, then set an offset in art to move it to the right position.

Ok I got the turret sorted but the barrels are in the air for some reason is there a barrel offset I need to enter?

also need to know how to do a tank drop? since I think the RP is loaded up now

1. Crop your images. Makes it easier to see the problem, and loads quicker so they can help. Open it in HVA Builder and position using voxel offset.
2. Yes

OK so I'm near done with the need to get balanced version though I need to fix the scud missile problem and another arose while I was working on the chrono prison

its selectable using any side even though the country owners are only the allies

and still a noob on HVA editing but the battleships barrels are set to the position but every time it move they jerk up above the turret

EDIT solved the chrono prison problem just did'nt have a allied war factory prequiste

I was completely lost in that I think I zoned out trying to work out how to solve the problem ;)

Ok I found a IE I dunno if its the spy plane or something I added when I tried to get soviet AI to make the airpad so it can do mig strikes and tank drops but one with the spy plane while I'm playing as a soviet country I use the spy plane I dunno if it happens randomly or every time I move the mouse to the mini map while its going but I get a IE I dunno if its affecting my airpad code just working on that now or not though

all I did to the spy plane is pretty much renamed a jet voxel and hva as spyp to override the propeller one

I think it was the spyplane that was giving the error

EDIT

ok doing a few runs it seems the it gets the error if cuba uses the spyplane I dunno why though maybe it had something to do with the V3 veteran setting or something

I suppose that everyone is going to be busy playing c&c 3 for awhile so I'll wait on uploading the beta it since my pc isn't up scratch so till I can get it going I'll be working and trying my skills at balancing the units as well
