few ideas
« on: 20 Feb 2003, 10:28:20 »
hello

i Personally dont see why any Pickup Trucks have not been made for OFP..

i think what would be a pretty cool couple of addons for OFP and especially Resistance would be

Dodge Ram
Ford
Chevy

and Ford and Chevy Flatbed addons

i have never seen a Pickup Truck addon at all.. seen big troop transports cars etc... but never Pickups

also think an addon for a big chopper with openable tail gate allowing to drive a vehicle on board for transport cause i personally think cars hanging from below the chopper is very boring and not so easy to do while in game but an addon with openable tail gate allowing the player to drive a jeep or other car on board and fly the chopper somewhere and unload the vehicle would be pretty cool a lot funner and easier then using scripts and having the vehicle hanging below the chopper without anything even touching it

I think, with driving cars in the heli, there is one usual problem. If you place a unit ON a chopper, not in the cargo, he just falls off when it starts to move. It's the same with any other vehicle.

It tried getting my guy to start inside a flying heli by using setpos height script to the height of the inside compartment of the chopper, so i could be IN it and still run around. Didn't work. I just fell off (although if it stays hovering you can start on top of it which is pretty cool and totally useless).

I think the chopper would have to have the properties of a building in order to fly with a unit in it byt not technically in cargo...

For example, i donwloaded an LST transport ship. You can store men and tanks and stuff in it and walk around in it, but if it starts to drive they all fall off. :-\

that really would be a bummer... but none the less its a good idea and i think it would be very nice to have(WORKING) for OFP cause vehilce magically hanging below a chopper is boring/very unreal and hard to get to work without it starting the game already attached

anyway atleast the Pickup Trucks wouldnt be so hard to make

just i dont think anyone is interested in making them

There is a script snippet in OFPEC for hanging vehicles under a chopper with a rope. Under aircraft i think

have it but never use it.. i prefer the idea of boarding vehicles inside an aircraft for transport...
