CT_OBJECT

Introduction

With this control type it is possible to integrate 3D objects into a dialog. For some more information you may want to look at this blog post by User:killzone_kid: http://killzonekid.com/arma-scripting-tutorials-gui-part-6/.

⚠

The y and z values for the vectorDir (direction array) and vectorUp (up) are switched.

• 

  The head in the shown dialog is an object, though it is unknown how to set the actual face texture or additional objects.

Default Classes

AddOns: Classes need to be initialised first with class SomeClass;

---

Missions: Since Arma 3 v2.02 one can use import SomeClass; to initialise a class (see the import keyword).

In older versions, use "Default" call BIS_fnc_exportGUIBaseClasses; and paste the result into the description.ext.
