New Transport Helicopter ( RESuggestion )

Allright ! New suggestionS coming from me ..
The fastropes .. Failure ..

Idea One: CH-47 Chinook ( Transport Helicopter )

The CH-47 Chinaook is one of these large transport helicopters, like the one you see when you're logging onto your account on PR.

A CH-47 Landing

A CH-47 is dropping artillery cannon on the airfield.

The main idea for this one is to not load supply crates, but CARS !
The CH-47 is supposed to take 10tons of cargo and 33 troops.
The maximum speed is on 315 km/h .


Allright, how should they construct this monster ?
Well, it could be dropping cars ( Not the heavy ones ) but the more light.
A HUMVEE, Motor-Bikes and similar.
Maybe supply crates too, x2 ?
Who knows :roll:

Idea Two: Removed !

Engine limitations for seeing your own body.
Engine limitations for having vehicles inside other vehicles.

rememeber to use the search function and check the already suggested thread

the chinook has already been made and is currently being worked on for the Devs

not being able to see yourself is an engine limitation afaik, games like Crysis have it, but BF2 wasn't given this ability

models cannot exist on top of each other and moving like how we want, but there has been talk of being able to spawn a jeep off the back

They made supply crates just come without you seeing them, should be able with vehicles aswell.

You can see your own body on vehicles. :)

Example:

(No hands on dirtbike) YouTube - PR dirtbike test 2
(Hands on dirtbike) YouTube - Dirtbike quicktest

You can't have usable vehicles in another vehicle, as said by Knight. The collision system in BF2 will render both vehicles destroyed.

Technically, you could drop a vehicle by spawning it like the supply crates now.

That's a very good point, but, if they made a script of any type that if you wanted to drop a car you HAVE to land it with two team members ( 50 yards away from the maximum ) or something similar.

BF:V used a different engine. Can't winch stuff with the BF2 engine.

that sounds doable to me, like spawning an RP

perhaps the ability to drop them at a firebase

Welcome to the forums;

The Battlefield 2 engine was made just for Battlefield 2, no other games. The Chinook is already being modeled by [R-CON]Ice_Killer and its is looking great. The BF:V engine was alot different then the BF2engine and the carrying of vehicles by helicopter is hardcoded. And please use the search function.

What about self-shadow? Is that impossible too?

Because it would be a great tool for you to be able to see your own shadow...
