ATM I'm making the cinematics for my airstrike.

Found at jonwills cinematic guide:

"Create_Explosion (creates an explosion at a bone). Parameters:
Explosion preset to create.
Slot number for the bone object.
Bone to create it at."

Possible, that Create_Explosion" doesnt work???

because, nothing happens, only the plane is following his waypath (i want to have a real explosion created at the place, where the airstrike calling beacon is):

or would this be better? but i still got no explosions.
gmax file attached.´

concerning the timeframe...is it detinated by the length of the main animation? mad it 400 frames. or is it independend? if so, how to determine the timecode/length?

PS: if I use e.g. a vehicle preset instead of the explosions, then it works.

PPS: some1 knows a script to make a vehicle fire its weapons?
base-Defence-scripts seem not to work, if i attach them to the preset in LE.

This is what I once did.

Create an (invisible) object, script it to self destruct instantly.
Script it to set the explosion to your will.
