Mac Gaming Mods

Hey, I'm trying to do a mod for the Silent Cartographer. But in the mod, I want to replace the Pelicans in the opening cutscene with Lifepods. I have done it before, I just can't remember which tags to switch... Can anyone help me?

Its been a long time since I have opened the b30 map. Try in the scnr, mess with some of the pelicans in there till you get the right ones.

d-swap peli with lifepod? o_O

if it doesn't work try d-swapping the model

I think that D-Swapping the peli with anything else crashes the map... well, it did when I swapped it with a UH-60.

You can swap it in scnr.
Originally in Just Under the Radar, you dropped down in a lifepod. It was a pretty cool cut scene.

The only problem was that once the lifepod hit the ground, it would stop for about 10 seconds before flying up and through the cliff wall and magically flying away into the night sky.

And that's a problem?

^Just my same argument.

^^^Collision, Physics.
Or just edit the cut-scene itself.

There are numerous tutorials out there, go read the stickies.

OK, now i have another question:
Is there a way to make AI automatically exit a dropship once it lands? (like how the marines automatically get out of the pelican in the start, but with elites in a covenant dropship)

Without scripting, my guess is the vehicle foot effects, or phys.

I'll try that.
EDIT: Wow, I have alot of campaign problems. I have me and my allies with the same animations and everything. I can enter the side seat or gunner seat of vehicles, but when I drive up to them, they just dive out of the way. I have checked the flag "Gets om Vehicle with Player" and "Disallow Vehicle Combat" is unchecked... I know they should be able to get on because they have the same animations and the string32 is usable for me, but not for the AI... WHY??

Covenant can't get in hogs. that's what I'm thinking.

yeah. and changing the strings dosent work either. i would just select the actv slots in the hog(the last 2 not the first) and swap with whatever.

Are they marines or elites?

Change the string to G-Driver for Elites.
