Pierrot 0 Posted January 3, 2003 Although we are inside buildings, for example hard castle, we will be easily blown when a hand grenade hits the outside of the building. I can accept my death when laser guided bomb hits the castle, but only one hand grenade! I want this bug to be fixed. Another problem: hand grenade in OFP explodes immediately when it touches the ground. In addition, I want usual type of hand grenade, like America's Army's; it explodes in certain time. And I want not only over throw, but also under throw if possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DracoPaladore 0 Posted January 3, 2003 How about an elevation thingy for when placing objects in the editor? Its a pain to try and get a single guy in the tower when using the editor, let alone a script. I think it would be easier if we can just set elevation of the object via the editor. So if I wanted the guy on the second floor instead of the roof or third floor on a building, I can just put a elevation for the object. 0 would probobly be ground level. You know what? Probobly just ignore me! I probobly have no idea what I'm saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did'nt understand didley-sh** But the realtime preview in a window helped to ease moving stuff around<span id='postcolor'> YES!!!! The OFP editor's "abstract" (to put it mildly) view is really counterproductive for some things. I'd like to see an in-engine overhead view, or some sort of accurate representation of one where the objects are displayed to scale and positioned exactly where their coordinates say they are. I noticed the OFP editor view doesn't even display all the buildings that are in the maps. Go to Levie on Everon, see the big buildings? Look in the editor for them, they're not shown.

TaNK_Em 0 Posted January 4, 2003 As ACEs Kevin said and other at least 2 gunner option. I was watching platoon and when there pulling out on the hueys and useing bolth M60s so cool same in we were soliders. Also i think before they go on to makeing further ofp stuff add some new animations. The whole realism scale for geting in a car is so low people just dont appear in one.

soul_assassin 1723 Posted January 8, 2003 From a modders point of view: - multiple gunner positions - availiability of gunner positions on aircraft - custom animation of memory LOD - the return of the transportVehicle cpp parameter as was originally intended - improved AI - possibility to add .rtm animations to weapons to make reload anims. do not despair people we just have 9 patches to go untill OFP is officially version 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Holy Smoke 0 Posted January 9, 2003 Rifle weapons on back set behaviour of a unit in SAFE mode. Weapon on hand, automatically sets behaviour on AWARE mode. This can be returned and it is useful for lots of things. Unfortunatelly, this is not true for handguns and you must get down on your knee to change behaviour to AWARE. This is annoying because now that we have handguns, there's no difference between having them on back or actually showing them on your hand. Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harnu 0 Posted January 10, 2003 If you have a jeep in a CH47 and turn off vehicle detection, then when ou take off, the jeep will stay on the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liquid_Silence 0 Posted January 10, 2003 And if you setPos it to make it stay in the aircraft, you may as well have collision detection on, cause setPos ignores it (collision detection) anyway... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BratZ Posted January 10, 2003 I didnt say remove the normal geometry, take this for example....you raise the landing gear on your plane before taking off,the plane before it even hits the ground starts bouncing and such ,thinking its collided keeps bouncing till its destroyed,the game has seperate collision detection that it is using asides normal 3d geometry Run into a fence ,it falls over,run into a helicopter ,or knock it over think it will stay? Some objects are just objects,others it needs to check because it might be a vehicle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pierrot 0 Posted January 10, 2003 When you ride on planes, the sight from the cockpit is bad because the front panel prevents you from seeing outside. I hope BIS adds an option that disable front panels. The dog fight on the Camel would be easier. Second, about mission editing.

saltebengt 0 Posted January 14, 2003 Would like: the ability to order an AI pilot to *land* (not disembark). Suggestion: put that in the "Mount" radio menu (4), directly under "1 Disembark", if applicable to the selected AI. Thereby: 4-1 Â is "Disembark", 4-2 would be "Land" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
