I'm pretty sure that the tow cable idea is a dead issue.

ELSE (continue with walk)
Something like this, but I know it is not that simple
I'm pretty sure that would lead to a CTD (Crash to Desktop) fallowed by an error message that says "WTF?!".

I said I was not a coder, this is the only thing I know about coding from a time far far away

Dragunov its not possible, lets leave it at that. As i pointed out in my precious post their are too many problems, if the Dev's get it working Bravo (You guys are Gods) if not we understand.

but for now, we don't know what the engine can do

Not much more than in regular BF2.

that's just to transport urself, but in some way it interacts with the player, so maybe it also can interact with vehicles

anyway there is the cable of the grappling hook in the special forces expansion - may it help to understand how it works..

it is only impossible if the engine needs to go beyond his limits

but for now, we don't know what the engine can do

Re: Hoth Insertion

I think it's impossible with this engine.

well, don't look to GC, just focus on ur own mod

cause it didn't work in GC, there is no reason it cannot work in this game

I know this is another engine than those used in star wars games, but there is a game who has this ability to use ur tow cable

I think it was a game for the Nintendo 64

It would be easier than in 42, so don't judge based on what GC did, but you're still right. Very hard.
