andersson 285 Posted October 6, 2003 I made a backpack addon. Its far from perfect but it works. Anyone who wants it can have it. I dont have the time and will to develop it at the moment. You can get the file here: backpack Its a backpack-addon (secondary weapon) to which you "assign" a special crate (cargocapasity 4 weapons, 20 magazines) and when you drop the backpack the assigned crate are moved to the units position and 1 meter under ground so you cant see it. But you can take and put weapons to the crate (name "backpack") as you would to the backpack. When a unit picks up the backpack the crate goes to pos [1,1,-10]. There are issues and basic scripting and so on but it works for me. So if you need a backpack at all cost then its maybe ok? Or if you want to make something of it youre welcome.

AKM 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Wow. That's kick-ass. If you had a few differnt models with differnt carrying capacities, and it worked 100% in OFP:R MP, that would kick-ass beyond all imagination. But, this is pretty damned sweet. AK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stag 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Good one! This opens up a couple of new possibilities, to say the least. Any way to show AT/AA weapons as proxies outside the main pack? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Nice one! Can't wait to get home and try this out. One of the more original addon concepts I've seen in a long while Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andersson 285 Posted October 7, 2003 Thanx for all the positive feedback!!   @Wardog. This is my first o2-work so I`m relatively new to this so I dont know how to make different proxies(?). @AKM. I have no idea if it works in MP. My scripting skills are limited and I dont have anyone to play MP with (and to high ping for internet  ) So this is one of the reasons I gave it away to anyone. I`m kindy busy right now and theres no reason for me to keep this work for myself. Its better to let the more skilled in this community work and develop it (hopefully!). It will give better results and faster. But I will continue working on this now and then. Maybe different bergen-models, winter/desert. If anyone improves this one way or another can you please send me a message/email or reply to this or ofpecs forum? I hope this idea will spread into more addons of this kind!

Stag 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Thanks for making the source files available. A very quick reskin: Not for release; just playing. The pattern needs better scaling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadow 6 Posted October 7, 2003 Thanks for making the source files available. A very quick reskin:http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-2/113955/BPK.jpg http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-2/113955/BPB.jpg http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-2/113955/BPF.jpg Not for release; just playing. The pattern needs better scaling. Sorry, I can't see shit I know I got a very dark monitor here at work, but those pics are very dark. Looking forward to testing the backpack when I get home. I've always wanted to make use of the Resistance backpacks in OFP does it include inventory-slots for handgun too? If not, would be nice to have a one handgun and 4 or 8 mags too (in reality it does'nt take up much space or weight at all) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BoonieRat 0 Posted October 7, 2003 You have to bump the brightness up with photo shop or such before you post screenshots. The gamma is different ingame or something... Those pics are like at november 3:00AM it's so dark! ... Damn good idea!, it's nice to see there are still inovative ideas waiting to be discovered ...

Stag 0 Posted October 7, 2003 how do i use itwhere is it in the editor i only got pd3 file do i have to make it myself? I advise you to download, examine and play the example mission included in the zip. It's not something you can use straight away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
