I know how to script, don't worry, but I would like to know how to drop a weapon pod from a pelican like in halo 2. I saw a map that did it a few years ago now and do not remember the name. Anyone know how to do it?

teknoman117 Joined: Jul 21, 2009	Posted: Sep 14, 2009 08:18 PM Msg. 7 of 14 Another question about the pelican. Is it possible to add model animations to biped to allow master chief to sit in the other pelican seats? The ODST bipeds and Master Chief can not use seats other than the Two farthest back ones. Any way to change that?

teknoman117 Joined: Jul 21, 2009	Posted: Sep 14, 2009 08:23 PM Msg. 9 of 14 Since the animations for the seats judge the distance they will run to be able to exit the pelican, wouldn't that cause some problems with them just standing there?

Gamma927 Joined: Jun 12, 2008 Steam: gamma927	Posted: Sep 14, 2009 08:25 PM Msg. 10 of 14 Why would they just be standing there...? Also, you can use the model animations for the cyborg on Coldsnap, which have animations for pelican seats.
