[Question] Ragdolls?

Post by milobr »

Sorry about being noobish, but I need to ask this.

How do you change ragdoll physics in this game? I've found Eve of Destruction Ragdoll works pretty well and would be cool if I could do the same here.

Do anyone know? Thanks.

It can be changed, I believe, but giving them more mass also gives them more health for some reason.

Your dead body is one.
Edit: it's when you are dead and your limbs move, or your corpse roll down hill(?)

well its more of a general gameing lingo.

Ragdoll is the term applied to how a body reacts within a game world, in reagards to motion, much like how you throw a real ragdoll around (thus the term thrown around like a ragdoll).

Oblivion has some very good examples of ragdoll physics. you can move chains, make logs roll down hills, move a dead corpse's body parts and organize stuff.

but yeah, ragdolls where all nice and fun for vBF2 but for a realism mod it sucks.

there are no such things as real "ragdolls" like there is in HL2 etc, in BF2/PR.

ragdolls means that they are dead bodys, that when you shoot them, there physics kick in etc like you can shoot a leg of a corps and the leg will move.

more info on ragdolls. BF2 dose have a little bit of it, when you get killed etc but nothing like the exstent of GL2 where you can place dead bodys on a map, having them hang from a rope etc and when you shoot them they swing :D

Ragdolls can be nice, but for some reason, they always end up being unrealistic, though Oblivion did a pretty good job at them.
