Parachute Jumps

I saw this posted on another site (TG) and don't remember seeing it here already so thought I'd share for those who care....

the lines in controls.con look like this for me, using numpad 0 for jump&chute:

jump: ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_PIAction IDFKeyboard IDKey_Numpad0 10000 0
chute: ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_PIWeaponSelect9 IDFKeyboard IDKey_Numpad0 10000 0

The main advantage to this is that when you jump off a roof, you can just keep spamming the jump button, thus minimizing the time needed to open the parachute.

This might catch out all those bunnyhoppers. Lol. Seeing them jumping around like mad and then their parachute opens...

Re: Parachute Jumps

that prob wouldnt happen because it takestime for the parachute to deploy, but i still prefer 9 for my parachute beacuse its harder to be tracked when ur just urself than when ur urself plus a big canopy


but heres a tip, u can be near a wall that will block a parachute, it wont deploy, like if ur going down crane, u can deploy in the ladder chute and u cant really deploy in closed spaces

Re: Parachute Jumps

This sounds helpful. I like to bail out of the jet on Oman and blow up the commanders stuff, but to get in there undetected, I have to jump pretty close to the ship. I don't always find the 9 key before I crater into the tower.:laugh:

Re: Parachute Jumps

I would figure this would cause a conflict because you can do this in the control options. I just tested it out and seems to work great. :yay:

Re: Parachute Jumps

Question though, So I can set this using the ingame keyboard assignment options, and it wont reject it saying the key is already assignged?

Re: Parachute Jumps

so do we just copy and paste this into the Controls.con in our profiles folder or what?

Re: Parachute Jumps

I did this and has helped a great deal. You can't do this in the game's options, but can easily be done in the control.con file for the profile you are currently using. I haven't had any issues with it either.
