I am happy to hear it works and adds to the experience!
Did you see them light a cigarette at night through Nightvision yet? =D

The new dynamic smoking is amazing!

I had scripted in the smoking before but was in Eden/VR testing a different script when a US Marine I had placed down (no smoking script attached) pulled out a crayon and started smoking it while we waited for a chopper.

Absolutely stunning, thank you!

Great work

Heads Up:
Next update will be released on stable next week.

Upcoming New Feature:
AI - Automated Dynamic Smoking for Units
- Fully controllable through CBA Settings
- Manually make Unit Smoke through ZEN Modules
- API to blacklist units from smoking for mission makers and more

I responded to you in discord

Is there a function that would let me check if player is currently smoking? I wanted to make a save system based off cigarette usage for my mission, but the API page does not have anything and after checking the code there's a lot of QPVAR variables that don't really make sense to me how can I use them as getters.

yes

Can AI emit smoke?

Thats a known issue and the dude helping with models says there's no fix for it.

Here are the errors in rpt:

10:09:23 Subskeleton index out of range. There seems to be a SubSkeleton index that is greater than the number of sub skeletons, this should not be happening. Please report it with reproduction steps/files.

can not reproduce the issue with with cba, ace and cigs rewrite.

I'm sorry, it's cigarettes (I don't know what came over me). cigs_black_devil_cigpack

Felt Tip Pen?

When sucking on a felt-tip pen, you cannot stop the action through "ace", it will still remain in your mouth.

Apprechiate the github issue. Problem is identified and release is on its way.

Logged fn_combustion_init.sqf and fn_postInit.sqf errors in the GitHub, with rpt logs

Yea... so thats fixed

- Fix: Smoking Kills... large pop servers
- API Stuff
- Rework of Config and File Structure for most addons

are 80 players smoking or only a few?

if you have any RPT for that, please post it on the github.

What makes you think its the sound?

Also, wdym with " the cigarette lighting sound gets looped over and over" ? is it playing multiple times? when a player uses it once?

The 502nd Para can also confirm this

Today in a 80 player mission individual people's FPS went to shit, we think it is because of the Cigarette lighting sound getting looped over and over again. This got fixed when we asked our player base to not use the cigarettes and all do a soft re log to reset the sound SFX being looped for the individual players.

Update to the Dev Branch:
The Stable Version hides the intermediary Stages of the cigarettes in the arsenal.
The Dev Version will have all stages available in the Arsenal.

Update to 2.5.0
Changelog:
https://github.com/CVO-Org/immersion-cigs-rewrite/releases/tag/v2.5.0

should add the camel unfiltered and pall mall unfiltered

I beg to differ but you do you.

Thank you Overlord Zorn for bringing attention. Looks like other mod cause the issue: Ace DUMP.

@grybasTV
First time i hear that being reported.

without a reliable way to reproduce it and an rpt as an github issue, there isnt much i can do about that.

@colemanerik
- change the duration of a cigarette: no
- Make the ai smoke another cigarette: not without scripting, manually giving them a new cigarette and stuff.

I was contemplating about a system that lets AI Smoke autonomous and have some ideas, but currently no time to implement it.

GrybasTV Just now
It stuck in ifinate light the cigarete loop animation

Is there a way to get AI to light a new cig after smoking one or change how long it takes to finish it?

alright thankyou

I made a PR to Antistasi to add the lighters and packages to the starting arsenal when this mod is getting detected. Rest is up to them.

hey just so you know this does not work with antistasi plus as you cant seem to get lighters or the cigerate packs i have spent two hours now trying to find away there is none i would have put this in the given link but one it wasnt working and two i didnt realy know if this would count

I am not aware of any github tutorial?

.psd is is a photoshop file.
.p3d is a model file.

If anything, you need to edit the .p3d with the object builder and update the texture paths for the model inside the p3d.

and the psd needs to be converted via .png to a .paa first

Hello! For a bit I'm trying to create a sub-mod for your project using github tutorial that has been posted there, but I'm stuck at the part where I'm supposed to turn .psd files to .p3d ones. How do I do that? I would be grateful for any amount of help!

Do your part of the better future!

@elysium

if i understand it right, its an issue about the 3d models. I had someone look at it before and "fix it" but it started happening again.

I am a scripter, i have absolutely fucking no clue about 3d models, even less in arma 3.

Its a "known issue" that i personally dont know how to fix.

if there's a .p3d warrior around reading this and is willing to help out, im very happy to fix this issue and to do a couple of other small changes to make the creation of new cigs so so much easier.

Hey, I've been having issues with this mod (and the original one) on my community's server. I have these constant errors showing on the web console/log when I start smoking:


17:08:30 Subskeleton index out of range. There seems to be a SubSkeleton index that is greater than the number of sub skeletons, this should not be happening. Please report it with reproduction steps/files.
17:08:30 Warnings in z\cigs\addons\morley\data\cigs\cig1.p3d:shadow(1000)
17:08:31 Ref to nonnetwork object 1198605: <no shape> #particleSource


When it's only me is not a big deal, but usually we're more than 40 players smoking and then is when the server's performance starts to slow down.

Any tips? (besides maybe stop smoking all of us at the same time hahaha)

told ya ;P

Hell yeah shoutout to my homeboy Hatred

No way my screenshot got into this HAHAHA NICE

@Cruz i think there is a submod for SPE1944 Pipe to be used with Immersion Cigs - if it works with the rework - i have no idea - i kitbashed my own version

Cigars ✅
Pipes ❌

are there cigars and pipes in this mod?

I have a little over 900 hours in blender. I've never really made game assets before but I have modelled a spliff. It's topology is not game ready though (o tris). I'd offer to make that for you but not being aware of arma/game import parameters for models, im at a bit of a disadvantage.

i have some idea's on how to implement it and stuff but i would need models and textures and shit for that

haha cool, any plans to add smoke a joint? im doing vietnam missions haha

I'll see to make another setting for editor, but it will ship once i had the nerves to deal with the messed up update

most ppl probably play mostly from editor, all mission makers anyway. can only play on ur own tho until u export it

yeh i just play from editor, always have since flashpoint haha. make, play, tweak, repeat ha
