Yoma 0 Posted October 29, 2008 Something i often miss in stealthy infitrate missions is the possibility to carry a "wire cutter" tool. All it should do is: be able to detect that the object your standing very close to is a wired fence. Upon "fireing" the wirecutters (maybe make it a silenced handgun?) it should create a hole (destroy) in the fence your standing next to. Of course it should only damage "fences" not walls/people. Is this a silly thought? I think it may add a lot to atmosphere and gameplay possibilities. Anyway, i just wanted to post this as an idea for some good addonmaker to implement. (digging into 3dmodels and config files etc is really not my cup of tea) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hurby 0 Posted October 29, 2008 This should go to the Addon Request topic  Otherwise a nice idea and I believe it is possible to do such things in ArmA quite easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArmaVidz 0 Posted October 29, 2008 There was a set of Wirecutters included in this addon release Entry Tools Beta Release however I do believe they were disabled. Might be worth having a look at? Cheers Vidz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_eyeball 16 Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) Definitely. A good implementation for 'wire cutters' is in Hidden & Dangerous. The cut out flap even folded down with curled wire edges. It's not so much that you need a 'wire cutters' object, but replacement 'fence' objects. i.e. The standard square framed wire fence and a replacement model with the hole cut into it. I'm surprised someone hasn't created the modified fence objects with a hole already.

ck-claw 1 Posted October 30, 2008 well i can't remember using any in ofp either... Ya never needed em. In ofp ya just ran at the fence,just before you reached the fence,you went prone. 95% of the time you ended up through the fence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoma 0 Posted October 31, 2008 WGL used timebombs as wirecutters. Â Arma too, but i think they are a bit noisy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
