Practicing

RPing on LOTRO
Ok, maybe I'm being dumb here but I could not get the console to come up last night.

I wanted to use those console commands to open a few maps and explore them a bit, try some nading and filling dummies full of lead from different ranges.

I joined an empty server and tried the tilde key (~) but no joy.
I tried on a training mission and no joy either.

Can anyone please spare some time to let me know what the steps are to get some offline practice in?

Cheers.

Try going through this matey



Practice Mode: Use the console to call up a map, stroll through it offline, learn where the objectives and good hiding places are, summon some target dummies and practice throwing tough nade tosses.

open Pipeline.aao: Loads the pipeline map. All the maps of America�s Army are actually loaded on your computer already, they are not loaded from the server when you get online. You can load any of them offline and �play� them by yourself. If you don�t want to practice Pipeline, type in the appropriate map:

Bridge.aao
Bridge_SE.aao
FLS.aao
HQ_Raid.aao
Insurgent_Camp.aao
JRTC_Farm.aao
Mountain_Ambush.aao
Mountain_Pass.aao
MOUT_McKenna.aao
Pipeline_SF.aao
Radio_Tower.aao
River_Basin.aao
SFcsar.aao
SFhospital.aao
SFrecon.aao
Swamp_Raid.aao
Tunnel.aao
Weapons_Cache.aao
Weapons_Cache_SE.aao

start Pipeline.aao: Same as open Pipeline.aao.

playerlock 0: Allows you to move normally. You are frozen when you first load a map.

mpcheat changeclass r: Gives you a rank and a weapon. When you load a map in practice mode, you have no weapons or rank. r gives you an M16A2 and the grenades that normally accompany the weapon. For other weapons, choose the code that matches:

r M16A2
g M16A2/M203
s M82
s24 M24
ar M249
m4m Modified M4
m4a1auto Ranger M4A1
ak AK47
ak74su AK74
gp AK47 w/ grenade launcher
rpk RPK Light Machine Gun
svd Dragunov sniper rifle
mos Mosin-Nagant sniper rifle
sl Squad Leader: SSG
ft Fireteam Leader: SGT
rct Recruit (no weapons)
v VSS
m9 M9 Pistol
sf SF Class
rpg RPG-7

summon agp_characters.npc_airborneinstructor: What good are weapons without anyone to shoot? This will place a practice dummy in the map directly in front of where you are standing, assuming there is enough room. The dummy will be one of those �Jesus�-pose dummies. This is useful to compare the number of hits it takes to kill someone. Compare shots to the head to shots to the foot. One shot to the head may kill while it may take 14 to a foot for a soldier to die.

If you don�t like the airborne instructor, replace
airborneinstructor
towerobserver
towerobserverfemale
flightcrew
airbornesoldier
medinstructor
nurse
medstudent
student
drillinstructor
ambient
soldier
civilian
doctor
virtualgeorge
character

avatar agp_characters.npc_airborneinstructor: Use this after the summon command, replacing airborneinstructor with whatever character you created. This command places you into the other body. If you have more than one airborneinstructor, simply type the command again, and you will switch to the other one.

walk: This will make your pawns come to life and kill you. Be sure you are a safe distance away. If this function slows down your system, use 'killpawns' to remove the pawns.

summon agp_inventory.agp_ammopickup.agp_m67frag: Extra weapons: this command gives you more frag grenades. Replace m67frag with a number of weapons choices:

m83smoke
flashbang, 40G1_1 (40mm ammo)
556_40 (M4/M16 ammo)
762_5 (M24/MOS ammo)
127_10 (M82/SVD ammo)
30G_1 (GP30 ammo)

That's the problem m8. At which point in the game do I do this?

Do I join an active server and do it? I tried on an empty one where I could run around but the console (~) wouldn't come up :(

Any help would be appreciated! :)

Cheers.

Where as I am clearly a n00b at AA ... finally just managed to get our server to load, then it craps out saying I need more training to do that map (don't even know which map it was)!! I've done all except Advanced Marksmanship, which I've read elsewhere isn't 'needed' just desired for the long range pea shooter.

Any ideas?

its a Special forces map mate, you need to have honour of 15 or more.

I can't change it to a non SF map but im sure the lads will do later so we can get you to SF status ASAP. :)
