This is really strange.

Post by XwitX »

Hey everyone i found out something weird and i dont know y the comp does this. First of all im assuming everyone knows how to change driver seats. I decided that instead of making a vehicle drivable for the mc to make a vehicle drivable to the elite. (im doing this on silent cartographer)
I changed the driver seat to G-driver elite and then i switched my biped to elite. I played but when i got to the warthog it still wouldn't let me in. i changed the driver seat to everything i could think of but for someone reason the elite cannot EVER get into a warthog. The only way i got the elite in ( this is weird) was to play as the mc and then drive through a checkpoint in the hog then save, then close, then swicth biped to elite and then play again. Luckily i didn't get an exception error. Instead i was driving as elite but i was standing up. I guess this means no one ever made this animation for the elite or something like that. Why can the mc drive any vehicle but not the elite when you change driver names?

The elite has no antr of getting in or staying in....but it DOES have an antr for getting and staying in the ghost....elite-driver should have worked....you didnt put elite_driver did you? hmm try naming all of the seats elite-driver, you wont be able to get in the gunner or side seat then, but you should be able to drive it.

hmmm, maybe you could give the Elite the mc's antr files? in almost all likelyhood, it wouldn't work, but then again, I've never tried...

if you ever play AOTCR, and knock the banshee down from the first platform, if you go back up there, theres an elite that spawned, the same with wraiths, there are certain enemies that spawn just for the purpose of getting into a vehicle, sure they can shoot, but you'll notice that if there's an empty banshee or ghost by a regular elite, then they wont get in it, but the ones that spawn by the vehicles, their purpose is to get into a vehicle, and stay there, so if this is a trigger, then you cant do it, but if its just a diff biped, maybe

idea.... go to aotcr, and swap the shee with the warthog (before starting the level), and check out when the elite goes into the shee on top of the balcony, or a wraith, and if that doesnt work, three letters

well, there not actually completely self driving, you need to make 'em accelerate first... but from then on, they drive themselves...

they're not at all special.

just set their deceleration rate to something like 0.0000001 and make their speed pretty high. then make it so you can fire the gunner from the front seat and give it trigger lock :)

they can be very fun... haha

mod the passenger seat, driver is weird that way. I have an elite driving warthog mod on silent cartographer and I named passenger seat G-driver and made it 3rd person view.

Isn't G-driver elite the Ghost seat for Elites?

Oh! I know!
Maybe we can make the seat names the Shade seats, because both Elites and Grunts can use it.
Does that work?
