Pimp my ride in ArmA

[Deadeye 1]

Hi folks,

since I'm a proud owner of ArmedAssault I love driving around on the countryside watching "this" and "that". Unfortunately the vehicles are veeeery slow.

So I converted a small script I made for OFP.

The Bike's maximal speed (on plain ground) is about 90. That truely sucks, but I didn't want to end up having superbike accelerating to 300 in 5 seconds.

I made two video's showing the speedie in action. The first one shows me hitting the pedal to the metal and the second one shows two ai's (ones got a speedbike guess who ) :

Here

BTW: I am posting this thread in the addon discussion

section because the bike (and cars) will be released as stand-alone units (until the tools are released I'll use the BI models) and the scripts will start up as you place the car/bike (no init command or whatever needed)

The OFP bikes worked in Multiplayer haven't checked it in ArmA yet.

Edit :Edit: the scripting is simple you will easily be able to modify the values if you wanna go faster/slower/more acceleration whatever

now the icing would be a road rash 3D mission

Nice.

Oh, and the first time I read the post title I was thinkin. "NOOOO, we don't need some pile of crap 85 Caprice with 20" dubs and a stereo system you could here in Dolores if it was thumpn' in Cayo. And if it is that I am getting the sniper rifle out!

Funny... I actually think the vehicles in ArmA are a bit too fast already compared to real life (real life being the mark by which I happen to measure things).  To each his own though.

I like the sound of this already.  Always wanted to be able to change speed and acceleration through scripts.  (saw the new forceSpeed, but sounds like you're able to change top speed and accel on the fly as well.)  Great job!
