What are the Convar commands for setting the parachute mode by default on a server?

same is happening with me too, with NPC Voice Chat and Climbable Rope

It shouldn't be doing any of that as it does not modify the physics of weapons or the global timers in any way. At best the old boogeyman of ViewCalc plays badly with other mods that modify the way the player camera behaves.

I don't know what arc9 is, but if it has any kind of view bob or sway stuff, try turning that off and see if it still happens. I thought I added a toggle to the viewcalc stuff in here specifically to make it compatible with things like that, but I genuinely can't remember since I'm barely at my PC these days.

I was planning on doing some routine tweaks and maintenance when I get time. If you can find out anything more specific that will definitely assist me in making a patch.

Okay this addon is weird af, so with all of my addons enabled, if I have the parachute enabled, the game works fine, however, whenever I disable the parachute in-game, as in the options setting, for some reason, when using arc9 weapons and shooting an npc at a distance, bullets seem to go right through them... BUT THEN, the moment I enable the addon, the npc gets hit with all of the bullets, it's like time was frozen or something, I know it's probably another addon causing this issue, maybe, but I'm just bewildered that it even happens in the first place, hence my angry comment 4 hours ago, since this addon has cause issues back in 2023 related to the health and armor regen addons. Also when disabled in-game NPC Health Bar breaks so yeah...

Apologies for the comment earlier, again I'm just bewildered things like that even happen, and I give ya credit for actually responding fast, so yea my apologies 😭

@elliot

So what would you have me re-write? Your comments has a lot of words and says absolutely nothing.

If you have genuine criticisms or ideas, I'm always open to suggestions. Just telling me to re-write a 15 year old add-on and not providing ANY feedback is lame behavior.

Please just rewrite this whole addon Idk why it just feels like breaking stuff but it does

@villomy

At some point they made it so +walk was no longer bound by default to the left alt key. Bind it to a key and it will work.

for some reason when i crouch and walk it wont work

@buckethead

Because the +use key isn't what activates the parachute, it's the +jump key.

(let me preface this by saying I'm not the brightest.) I'm trying to use the parachute, but when I jump out off a building and press my e key it doesn't work?

@fallguy

vanilla Magnusson model with a brown player color and a hat from Fallout 3 put on via PAC

Pm on forth pic pls

Guns from "Modern Coalfare Base" disappear when the parachute is activated.

Yeah, not a new issue. ViewCalc is one of the most fussy functions. It either breaks entirely or the functions multiply together to make the screen have a seizure.

That's actually a problem with the API, I guess.

Alright I see the problem. This hook can not use properly in addons without the risk of having conflicts, because you accually have to return something in order to use it. As it returns a non nil value it will stop the callback of all other addons using the hook.

Not sure how to fix it. CalcView is only used while you're parachuting.

You can check the code on github to see if there's anything specific I can change.

I have been reported that it would conflict with 3d stream radio. I use calcview for getting the real camera position for interaction with the user interface.

BATTLEFIELD 2142 MENTIONED RAAAAAAAH

Seems to be working with Glide & WAC. Played for the past few hours without any issues so far. If anything would break it would definitely be the calcview function since that's the usual suspect.

it might have to do with the calcview hook but from what i can tell, in glide its only used for simple thirdperson compatibility, shouldn't screw with mouse input at all, i haven't looked at wac code all that much so i couldn't exactly answer that one

im sure, i went through a ton of addons testing conflictions, having this enabled caused the issues

@wllrounded

There's no reason it should but I can try to look into it. Are you sure it's not a conflict with something else? There's not much to this script that can go wrong.

for some reason this seems to cause conflicts with glide and wac after one of the gmod updates a few months ago, mainly bricking mouse inputs/mouse controls

@honda

I believe you should first try reading the description and the helpfully labeled options panel.

Although anyone who willingly drives a 2005 Honda Accord probably doesn't have much attention span left after dealing with all the problems those cars have.

HOW THE FUCK DO I DEPLOY IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I don't speak Portuguese.

Que mod poronga, no es compatible con nada y encima te rompe todo, el atlas chat, el sistema medico, los Vjbase, no lo recomiendo usar

@heinrich

Check the options.

how the hell do i turn the parachute on??? i fall from a high building but it dosen't turn on

@V92 Oh okay, thx 4 making

@pururin

I guess reading the description is too hard for some people, so let me break it down Barney Style.

You can set it to require an entity pickup. Has been that way for a bit.

ya should make it so you can ONLY use it when you spawn it in. its silly its constantly equiped

is it possible to change the keybinde to open the parachute from the console?
its the best light parachute mod on steam fr thank you :)

HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE

Dayum this is pretty useful!!!

@demir

I have no idea what that means, but probably not if it does the same thing. Would have to test and find out. Mine has a toggle to disable it if it matters.

Sorry, I mean: Is this addon compatible with the parachute addon from Warzone? That addon adds Skydiving and Built-in parachute. But I need a realistic parachute. That's the only reason I'm asking

@demir

I have legitimately no idea what that is.

Can i use it with "WZ Skydive/Parachute +infil" ?? Or Do you have a version compatible with it?

where is it i cant find it!

@dfo

I have friend requests disabled, so just post in general.

Ok! I joined your server, and I friended you. Once friended, I'll create the chat

@dfo

Send them to my discord since messaging on Steam is awful.

I know a guy who can help! I’ll friend you, then hook ya up. Anything to help a brother in Christ!

@dfo

I want to but I have no idea how the keybind control panel works since the wiki keeps getting scrubbed of all useful information.

Perhaps maybe you can make it to where a person can change the keybind to activate the parachute?

@jro45

Are you using the jump button?

Use key...I mash it, and nothing happens
