LykosMactire 298 Posted July 8, 2016 wouldnt adding custom animations make it not able to be server-side only? as that means all clients would need that animation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duda123 1341 Posted July 8, 2016 wouldnt adding custom animations make it not able to be server-side only? as that means all clients would need that animation No - it would check to see if you have the addon installed locally. If you do, it would use the better animations. Otherwise, it will fall back to the defaults that you see in the video above. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

O.Languedoc 67 Posted July 8, 2016 Is there any way to make a rope object ? that you can use to allow the rappel? I am just thinking about all my guys going rope crazy on every ledge they find with their infinite rope super power Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duda123 1341 Posted July 8, 2016 Is there any way to make a rope object ? that you can use to allow the rappel? I am just thinking about all my guys going rope crazy on every ledge they find with their infinite rope super powerYes and no -Yes you can create a custom rope inventory item. However, it can't be embedded into a mission or be server side only. That's the downside. Clients would need an addon installed to use it. I could make a setting for my addons that lets you specify the inventory item to require, if that helps. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GamerOnkel 100 Posted July 8, 2016 it will be compatible with ace 3? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duda123 1341 Posted July 8, 2016 Jeza - great video! Thanks to mcrupert we have some awesome looking animations in the works! Will make weapon switching work much better as well. These addons will come packaged with the addon. If you're playing in SP they will be used by default. In MP, you will use the vanilla arma animations unless you also have the addon installed locally. The addon is still optional for for clients, but will look much better if you have it installed. Also working on adding in some optional rappel sound as well. Both the models and sounds will also be added to the heli rappelling eventually. Finally, the first release will contain AI rappelling, meaning you can order your AI squad to rappel with you. 23 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ceeeb 147 Posted July 8, 2016 If you are making custom animations, the hand controlling the rope (which must be the left hand if holding a weapon in right hand) should be below the descender, not above as shown in the picture. The further below/around your body the controlling hand is, the more friction and the slower you go. To allow two hand firing, the rope must be locked off, which takes both hands and some time to do (the rope is either wrapped around legs, or tied off over the descender). Auto-locking descenders are reliable and could be used instead, but I've not seen any videos of military using them. Here's an example video of people firing on rope with one and two hands (although some have poor rope skills, i guess they haven't done this before): And some military abseil training, including technique, wind noise and lock offs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ineptaphid 6413 Posted July 9, 2016 Amazed to hear you are adding AI support.Too often us SinglePlayer only folks dont get to enjoy some of these awesome mods because they are designed for MP. THanks a lot mate :D 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainAzimuth 714 Posted July 9, 2016 epic. It's become apparent to me that there are actually a large number of times i've explored Tanoa that having Repel ropes would have been ideal. Will this become compatible with Exile in the future? They already have rope in the game, and i think they may already be using your advanced tow system with the ropes as well. Perhaps it would be cool to combine the mod as one rope technology mod? Just curious. This is really epic stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
