working fast rope 1.3.1?

[sonikot]

Helllo, anyone got a working fast rope for 1.3.1 or did anyone get btc fast roping to work?

I had it working, but it still caused insta-death in most cases.  I'm waiting to see if someone brings out a newer version.

oh, can you give me some insight on how you got it working and which one you used. cause i cannot get it to work at all. and its not showing in rpt logs at all either, so i can't see any errors. i've put it every where around my init file too.

Fast rope works for the most part but it's a bit inconsistent. I've had newly purchased choppers not have the menu option until after a server restart - other times, it works fine. Haven't had any reports of instadeaths from use yet.

Just followed the instructions and it worked. Like I said though, I took it off already due to deaths.  Didn't even get time test it with my players, I tried it myself several times and died every time.  So maybe I was doing something wrong too :P

That's weird Matthew...was it a particular chopper type? Some of my players got creative and somehow managed to climb UP the rope, which I didn't even know was possible lol

UH-1Y . I got nervous after the seventh attempt and pulled the plug lol.  

I'm pretty sure I was doing something wrong then, if you got it working, so I'll give it another try this week.

have you tried it with a lowercase A for addons ? I'm not sure whether Arma is case sensitive with directories, as i've always used lowercase anyway. 

[sonikot]

ok, so it is working, -_- it doesn't work with sspawned in helicopters with infinistar AH.. im not sure why. thanks though mathew.

Yeah, when I used it, it only worked with vehicles that had stayed there after a restart, not newly spawned ones :)
