MEDICUS 0 Posted February 6, 2004 Alsome! Looks really fantastic! But will boats really sink with the front part at first (picture 1)? I think the heavy part is the back (picture 2) with the engine and things like that. (but i don't know it... just thought about) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Munk 0 Posted February 6, 2004 Maybe add a custom unit with life jacket (using CoC Combat dudes or something? ) incase the unfortunate does happen? You could ask Deadmeat if you can use the life from his Policie pack and put it on a BIS civie... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(but i don't know it... just thought about) lol I guess it depends what end of the boat's got the biggest hole in it @Munk Already a step a head . Now has a useable life ring and custom life jackets. I try to keep from using other addons with these as it means people don't have to d/l this or that addon to get them to work. Having said that the life ring and life jackets are loosely based on the coc divers which is an excellent addon btw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah... good news, would have been a shame to miss those new anims because everyone in OFP cant swim There's already a few coast guard addons to add to the fun. Baywatch mission anyone?

MEDICUS 0 Posted February 9, 2004 Very nice! Â Will this "lifejacket" be part of new units, or will it be a addon (like a Backpack)? Mfg MEDICUS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colonel_klink 0 Posted February 9, 2004 The life jacket fits into the secodary weapon slot, so it is possible for other units to wear it. Still woking on the implementation of that for units not considered crew. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ExtracTioN 0 Posted February 10, 2004 got a question klink will the units all the time wear those life jackets or only when they disembark from the boat in the water Would be cool if they dont wear it not visible on land + in vehicles but when they disembark in water the life jacket got visible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colonel_klink 0 Posted February 10, 2004 Good question, ExtracTioN Actually hadn't given this much thought. But I can see this as being a valid point. Be kinda dumb looking seeing all the crew members wearing lifejackets while wandering about the countryside. So yeah, the crew will only wear the gear when on the boat, however seeing the life jacket is in the secondary weapon slot it doesn't show while the crew are in the positions on the boat. Dunno if this can be changed but i will attempt it. Next issue will be non crew cargo.. do i put jackets on them automatically when they get on board... will have to deliberate over that.
