themaster303 22 Posted October 14, 2011 will there be a loaderposition ? so like kneeling at the door and tell the pilot where to fastrope or lift an objekt. didnt find such an option in mp. its hard alone to get this done, and i dont like to use 3d view. anyone saw this, or is it konfirmed that there will be loader position ? greetz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarp 10 Posted October 14, 2011 Yea, good idea. Trying to use the lean function (as a pilot) to lean out of the door is impossible due to a invisible wall/door. Wonder why, it sure would have been nice. :) Quick question for the devs: I presume, that this function (i.e lean left) would work from both pilot and passenger/operator positions if the invisible boundaries were removed...or?

CarlGustaffa 4 Posted October 14, 2011 Isn't this in ACE? Could use a similar approach maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zentaos 10 Posted October 14, 2011 can the doors be removed before flight so we could lean out to look down? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidpinky 11 Posted October 14, 2011 can the doors be removed before flight so we could lean out to look down? Still can't lean out further on the no door versions of helis. In the OA preview version we could lean out a lot further, although at the time it was through the door models and I would just open them first so it didn't look so bad.

Armored_Sheep commented as follows on the ability to lean further in the community preview:Game supports 6DOF including zoom. Range of movement is limited to respect that pilot has a seatbelt. Some players like to zoom with head movement, other prefer to offset head without zooming. Feel free to configure your personal assigments of TrackIR axes movement to game controls Options->Controls.

liquidpinky 11 Posted October 14, 2011 Armored_Sheep commented as follows on the ability to lean further in the community preview: But really it was just to cover up the fact that it is the collision model that has been altered to stop clothing passing through the door windows. ;) The alternative would be multiple collision models for when doors are open or a separate door colision model. Probably too late in the game for the latter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zentaos 10 Posted October 14, 2011 In reality, they are a lot smaller than you would imagine. The MD500 series are pretty cramped machines. With the door closed, your shoulder is only about 2 inches or so from touching the window. With the door removed, and your seat belt on, it wouldn't be far fetched at all to be able to lean over enough so that your sight line was past the floor. The 412 might be a little more roomy.
