Farcry modding
Is there a reason why an animated object (.cga file) doesn't play till in the players view? I have some rings that teleport the player from one set to the other, but the animation needs to start for both at the same time. I scripted it to work that way, but until the player 'looks' at the rings, they don't animate. Even the one the player is at won't animate after hitting the USE key if he/she is looking up too high. Only when he/she looks down more at them do they play. Is there a way to 'force' the animation to play? Has anyone come across anything like this?
try to call self:EnableUpdate(1); at initialization time. by default entities are in frozen state until they do not get in the player FOV.

Thanks again, fagiano:)
Well, either it just doesn't work or I did it wrong:( Maybe I need to go back to using triggers and 'playsequence', I didn't have a problem that way. Its a lot more work than just putting down a pre-animated object as opposed to animating 2 sets of rings with the track editor. With each set having 5 rings, that equals 10 tracks of animation. I guess its not that bad:) But it makes it so I can't just give the rings to the other mod members:(

It will be ironic if Far Cry does support joysticks - I'm just about to release a utility that gives proportional joystick support!

That's intriguing - it correctly reports the number of buttons on mne (2). Does anyone know if joysticks can actually be used? Meanwhile I released my AutoJoy program - it allows you to use proportional joystick control in Far Cry, particularly for driving vehicles and boats.

To Alberto: I looked at ladder.lua but couldn't see any reference to gravity....

fagiano, before you left did you happen to find out if the export plugin for max was going to be compiled for Max6? I'm up the creek without a paddle right now.

not that I know. I guess it wouldn't take long for crytek to just recompile it...Isn't there some kind of mod support site? maybe some nice guy at crytek could just spend 10 min and do it.
