Title: RagDoll we NEED!
Post by: dave52390 on 12 Sep 2004, 14:32:42

We all need the rag dool feater instead of the stupid 4.        


(rag doll is when some one dies his body gives away, so if a bullet hits him the the head from the front his head will  fly back and his body will follow.)

If any one cna make this plz do!!! people would love this.

Greets,

Realistic physics in Operation Flashpoint? That'll be the day... :P ;D

The only way to achieve this would be to completely rewrite the OFP physics engine, which would require probably a year or so work, and would require the coders to crack open the flashpoint exe, and reverse engineer it (thus violating the EULA).

Bearing in mind that you need a mainframe to run OFP without lag as it is, ragdoll physics would send the number of calculations required through the roof...

I just don't see this happening... :P

Yeah, it might look cool, but (a) it is impossible to do in OFP, and (b) I'd rather have about 1 million more important physics improvements in OFP2 before this one. Besides, OFP isn't like most corridor-based FPS, where you are like 20 feet away from guys you kill. In OFP you are usually hundreds of yards away, so it isn't that noticable anyway.
