Scripted Optics

This framework provides support for scripted optics, optics that have animated reticles when shooting the weapon or when changing the magnification of the optic continuously (as opposed to the discrete modes from the base game).

This also includes "Picture in Picture" (PIP) optics. These are optics where the background around the scope is drawn unmagnified using the Arma 3 PIP technology. PIP optics are copies of normal 2d or 3d optics with a special optics model with a procedural "render to target" texture.

PIP variants of optics and weapons with integrated optics are hidden items that get swapped out automatically when the Use picture in picture optics setting is enabled locally. These classes are changed back when the setting is not enabled, thus you can change this setting during the mission and different players can enable or disable the setting without interfering with the preferences of others. The classes are also changed back when operating the Arsenal and are therefore compatible with the Save and Load functionality.

The for the PIP technology necessary camera object is not created when the Use picture in picture optics setting is disabled. Therefore you will not suffer any potential performance impact by this addition to CBA unless you make use of a compatible optic. Likewise, the rest of the framework is disabled and all script functions remain uncompiled when starting the game should none of your addons make use of this framework. CBA does not provide any optics and does not modify any optics from the base game either.

Another addition is the limited support for CQB optic attachments for weapons with integrated carry handle optics (e.g. H&K G36A2). By creating copies of CQB optics that include the weapon's carry handle optics mode, and swapping these optics in and out whenever necessary, it is possible to make these optics appear to work as expected and seamlessly to the players while remaining compatible with all other weapons.

    };
};
  • The class is ignored unless weaponInfoType is set to CBA_ScriptedOptic or CBA_ScriptedOptic_zooming.

Config entries for both CBA_ScriptedOptic and CBA_ScriptedOptic_zooming

  • bodyTexture: texture of the scope body
  • bodyTextureNight: texture of the scope body in darkness, optional (falls back to bodyTexture)
  • bodyTextureSize: scope body texture scale factor (> 1 bigger, < 1 smaller)
  • manualReticleNightSwitch: If set to 1, the reticle must be switched manually to the illuminated version. Default keyind for that action is Numpad 0. Default: 0 (automatic switch to illuminated reticle in darkness) (requires CBA_A3 v3.11.2)
  • hidePeripheralVision: If set to 1, the area outside of the optic body texture is blacked out. (requires CBA_A3 v3.11.2)
  • opticsPPEffects[]: Array of optics effect classes from CfgOpticsEffect that should be in effect when using the optic. Radblur effect and a few others require the PP setting to be enabled in the video options.

Config entries for CBA_ScriptedOptic

  • reticleTexture: texture of the reticle
  • reticleTextureNight: texture of the reticle in darkness, optional. Used for illuminated reticles.
  • reticleTextureSize: reticle texture scale factor

    };
};
  • minMagnificationReticleScale[] = {minMagnification,minReticeScale}; and maxMagnificationReticleScale[] = {maxMagnification,maxReticeScale};
  • These control how fast the reticle is scaled up when increasing the magnification, example:
minMagnificationReticleScale[] = {5,1.026};
maxMagnificationReticleScale[] = {25,5*1.026};
  • These mean the reticle texture is scaled to 1.026 at 5x magnification and to 5*1.026 at 25x magnification. Should be proportional. Not necessarily the minimum and maximum magnification of the optic, just two fixed points preferably far apart.

  • reticleSafezoneSize: The "Safezone" is the area at the center of the screen where the reticle is rendered. Default 0.84. (requires CBA_A3 v3.11.2)

  • reticleDetailTextures[]: texture LODs for different optic magnifications (to keep image sharp)

reticleDetailTextures[] = {
    // {show at magnification > this value, reticleTexture, reticleTextureSize, reticleTextureNight (optional)}
    {0, "\bwa3_optics\data\reticles\bwa3_pmii_shortdotcc-reticle_ca.paa", 1, "\bwa3_optics\data\reticles\bwa3_pmii_shortdotcc-reticle_illum_ca.paa"},
    {4, "\bwa3_optics\data\reticles\bwa3_pmii_shortdotcc-reticle_detail_ca.paa", .5, "\bwa3_optics\data\reticles\bwa3_pmii_shortdotcc-reticle_illum_detail_ca.paa"}
};
  • hideRedDotMagnification: Hide generic red dot texture above this magnification.
  • fadeReticleInterval[] = {start,end};: Fade reticle from start magnification to completely disappear at end magnification.

  • The weaponInfoType has to be set to CBA_ScriptedOptic (or CBA_ScriptedOptic_zooming).
  • The modelOptics has to have a face assigned with a procedural texture named #(argb,512,512,1)r2t(cba_optics_rendertarget0,1), e.g. \x\cba\addons\optics\cba_optic_small_pip.p3d or \x\cba\addons\optics\cba_optic_big_pip.p3d, or a custom made model.

Add limited optic attachment support to weapons with carry handle optics (including pip support)

Click to expand

The G36A2 is a weapon with carry handle optic and picatinny rail. We want to be able to attach the RSAS CQB sight on the rail and still be able to use the carry handle optic. We cannot however add the carry handle optic to the G36A2 only, because then the G36A2 would lose access to the carry handle optic when equipped with the RSAS, or add the carry handle optic to the RSAS, because then other weapons equipped with the RSAS would gain access to the carry handle optic of the G36A2. The solution is to switch around multiple versions of the RSAS with this framework. The optics should either be a normal CQB optic or a CQB optic with additional carry handle optic mode to replace the mode of the G36A2.

We also want a variant of the carry handle optic with PIP camera to emulate the scopes magnification while everything outside the scope remains unmagnified.

Thus we need two weapons: the normal G36A2 (BWA3_G36A2) and a PIP version of the G36A2 (BWA3_G36A2_pip). And we also need 3 optics: the normal RSAS (BWA3_optic_RSAS), the RSAS with the hidden G36A2 carry handle optic mode (BWA3_optic_RSAS_G36A2), and the RSAS with the PIP version of the carry handle optic mode (BWA3_optic_RSAS_G36A2_pip).
