Bayonets
 

Just out of curiosity, what's exactly the engine limitation preventing coding a rifle to both stab and fire with the same handweapon/equipment slot?

Since I tested the mod I've been thinking how/if this could be done, I sort of got stuck with the idea. So, rather than starting from scratch I thought to simply ask you, hoping it's not a trade secret ;)

Well, I had some possible solutions for this: http://forums.filefront.com/fh2-sugg...g-bayonet.html
(number 3 would be the best solution if possible)

I have to say its not that big of an issue in FH2, bayonets are indeed very deadly already. Still, I'd prefer if you could fire while having the bayonet attached.

I don't mind it as much as I thought it would. I like the feeling of crouching, fixing bayonet and charging my foe.

Im thinking the limitation is because what you see is attaching a bayonet to the rifle but what the game engine is doing is switching from the gun to the knife.

Re: Bayonets
 

you can't have two projectiles come out of one gun IIRC

I've noticed that you can make the MG-34 switch between full auto and single shot buy selecting it. Given this, there may be a clever way to make it fire with the bayonet. Also in Battlefield Vietnam, the you switch between the C-4 and detonator by clicking right mouse so it may or may not be possible with some out of the box thinking.

I am not really sure it it matters all that much though because it isn't hard to switch.

Re: Bayonets
 

My thoughts too. Would it be possible to, instead of changing between semi- and full-auto, show an animation of putting the bayonet on and use secondary fire as stab?

Re: Bayonets
 

Its still 2 different projectiles.

It cant be done in BF2.

Re: Bayonets
 

than how about just simply when you select the bayonet you get the rifle with the bayonet already attached.I think thats done in another mod before,and i am a Red Orchestra vet so i am used to attaching the bayonet and going to war...

Rattovolante, its official; you're bayonets in FHTMOD is the best, and its a shame it cant be transfered to FH2, thanks to dice for that I guess :p
