Is there any way to modify it so it does not fall through the ground? If planes don't sink through the ground, this should be doable right? Just wondering if there was an enterprising chap who had the knowledge to fix this and also if this bothers anyone else?

Bothers me ALOT! I THINK you would just add some obBodyPts to the hidden torso and you are all set! I was going to try this when I got home today along with me new "secret weapon" for the allies thats going to be available for download sometime in the future.

Thanks ArgonV!

I think this fix to the pilot would be a big boost to the realism of sdoe.

Please let me know when you have fixed up the pilot and I will test it out for you if you want.

I don't know what it is abouot pilots....I have managed to change physical models no problem, but as soon as you start playing with the properties, CTD....

OPS is fussy about them too, which makes things even more annoying!

Maybe it would help to ask those who did build "Dirk".

But Laika, Dirk still falls through the ground... Adding the bodypoints wasnt the problem for me. Getting them to make the pilot not fall through the ground was and still is the problem...

I spent a lot of time with Dirk. LOL, I also tried adding body points.

One thing to try is to kill the pilot on detach, using obKillDelay .1 and detach a new object that looks like the pilot but give it body points. Hopefully this object would land on the ground like a wing that has been shot off. This object would have to have mass and the parachute. (Be cool if it was flyable)

One problem, when the object lands, what happens to the chute?? Would it still fall through the ground?

I will be working on a parachute loadout like this if I can ever get back to OPS and work on the C-47.
