about dragging the bodies

[bartekb8]

Hi, so what can I say? I love this mod and I can't wait new better and better missions. Great job guys:)

 

But...

 

Forgive me, I will write about flaws this time. There's one thing that annoys me: bodies dragging. It's so uncomfortable because there are problems with dragging the bodies through the narrow areas(door frames). Unfortunately the best way to transport the body is not pulling it, but pushing, but it's far less realistic... Pulling the body is difficult, ineffective, and it kills some of the immersion in my opinion, so why chose this option?...(;  I think carrying bodies known from Thief series is much better because it is more comfortable and quicker(player doesn't have to fight with physics). Why not implement it to the Darkmod then?

Frob an corpse and hit the "use" button, you will be surprised

How many more posts like this are we going to see?

 

Wasn't there a section in the trainer that showed how to shoulder bodies? If not, add it to the list. lol

 

Please people, read the wiki!!!!

In fairness, that gameplay wiki document is huge and the mention of this one, fairly obscure feature is way down near the bottom.

It's an obscure feature, so only a true thief shall find it.

I double-checked the other day, and no, there is nothing about shouldering bodies in the training mission.

Thanks for response, people. I'll read the wiki section in a sec, just forgot that there's such a huge guide! 

 

Shouldering is easy and works very well, I don't believe I could have overlooked it, heh;)

I like both the shouldering and the dragging options, they serve different purposes. I was playing Chalice and wanted to hide a body in the kitchen storeroom. To my surprise, the dragging lets you grab hold of individual limbs so that you can perfectly position a body just where you want it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

There, now no-one will notice.

 

This will make things like hiding a body under a bed so a guard doesn't spot it possible (I'll have to test this out with a guard patrol though, don't know if they would notice or not).

That servant's in for a surprise if someone startles him to wake him up xD

Now I see it could be useful, indeed

And when it comes down to beds, the obsessive compulsive among us can finally tuck them in properly.
