Blood Gulch Pelican vehicle dropoff theory
Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2005 6:00 pm
I have been thinking of a blood gulch video kit, and now that i have that special map with all the bipeds and vehicle, i have a theory.
Since you can control a vehicle when you become it (using meta swap) and you use the DevTrainer, i was thinking of a possible way to get the warthog into that cargo bay in the pelican.
You mod the BG map to have pelicans drivable and the warthog as a vehicle/biped and you change a scenery object into the hog. Then you go on with a friend on the map and using the trainer, you "bump" the warthog (cuz you made it as a biped it should work) and drive it somewhere. Then the second person takes the pelican (not bumping it) and flies it so the warthog player is directly in the spot where the vehicle is docked in the campain. A message should appear (NOTE1) and the warthog player should be able to enter the cargo bay as the warthog. Makes for a very cool cinamatic feature.
NOTE1: If you remember the Marine Gulch mod, there was a drivable pelican that had a 'cargo seat'. If anyone can tell me how to enable that, please PM me with instructions.
This is all in theory, of course. As soon as I'm ungrounded, I will attempt it when I find out how to to the 'cargo seat'.
