Editing the WartHog physics to change the way it drives

Is there anyway to allow a hog to go through a roller coaster spiral?

drive into a tank and u mite pull a backflip if u hit it rite

ty for that worthless info. I want the hog to drive at a high speed and go thru a spiral.

u mean like u fly it and make it do a barell roll with controls? well to fly it change the id to pelican but to do a spiral i think u wud have to somehow edit the flight path

change the turning angle

From what I understand, he doesn't want the warthog to fly, he wants it to be able to make a loop or something at a hide speed.

He wants to be able to drive a complete loop-de-loop.

You know for modders alot of you guys are real stupid. You cant even seem to understand whats hes talking about. He obviously wants to know how to make it so the hog can go through a spiral. He prolly made a roller coaster out of scenery or something. You would have to mess around with the weight and all kinds of stuff. Just spends a few hours trying all kinds of different combinations.

I don't think Halo's phisics would alow that. Because its in code that if you hit any enviorment at any angle more than 90% you fall out.

well, you could open up SE and make a spiral, then edit the texture so its invisible. That would do it, but the problem with that is actually finding the loop that you made.

Um... why would making it invisible help?

If you make it invisible and you go around the loop your still going to fall out

amen to that, and yes, that would be the best way to approach it...

Yeah, the best way to try this is to try combos of the weight (under the physics tag) and the speed & accelleration (under the vechicle tag).

Don't make the weight too low or it will not drive well on flat land. And try not to make the speed too high or you cannot steer.

I guess people didn't care to see that it doesn't matter if you change anything. If your more than 90% you will fall out!
