From the first post

Hmm, this is more for realism units in the community but I'm sure other people will grab this idea too.
rn
rnMaybe having a salute, in which the character puts his right hand to his forehead and then goes down in consistent motion.
rn
rnThis would be real nice for presenting awards etc in the realism units, and upon entering and leaving the server.
rn
rnMaybe have it binded to a key like dod_walk.
rn
rnJust idea, replies please.

rnNot sure if this has been requested or if hasn't, new member here. Thanks

now I'm not a coder nor am I currently into Realism but knowing from being a part of a clan that has a Realism squad that would really be appreciated(sp?) by most Realism teams, however in order for the coders to be able to have this happen you would have to have a custom model that everyone would have to be using that has the salute thing as part of the model's motions.

I dont think so, but I saw him do one of the signals that actually looks like a salute. I can't remember what it was, though.

I think Wilson has, rnrnthere was a 29th video that had the men moving in different ways that wasn't normal to regular movement in DOD. Also, I was reading and don't remember off the top of my head but, someone made something so the allies don't scratch there balls and rub there face. Not too sure who did that as it is not installed on my server!!rnrnAs for the signal that looks like a salute, I think this should still be created because signals can get mixed up as opposed to an actual salute.

it would be pretty cool.. but making clients download like 10mb just to have models with an extra animation is scary :P

Ok so in-game the signal that is closest to salute is "signal_grenade" now I binded that to nbind i "signal_grenade; say *Salute*" and it looks good. But the only thing that I would like to change is the way the text message comes up saying... n"(hand Signal) Cpt. Cottrell [36th AIR]: Grenade" in team chat

You could probably catch and just not print out any messages like that, and as far as I know - that's the closest possible way to "Salute" and it looks pretty good.

Ok I just tested it out and theres 1 problem. When I say /salute it still comes up with (Hand Signal Grenade). But I'm not the one who sees it... its everyone else who sees the message I see what is meant to be seen (Hand Signal Salute) but other people see the other message under that. Now I was wondering if there was a way you could block it for both.

Do you think you could make the same thing, but have it say Heil! and do the Sniper hand Signal?

I have found one of the dod_idle animations better suited to a "salute" as the soldier grabs their helmet and tips it in respect... n nand since people are now asking for other animations to be displayed... I am suprised noone wants a crotch grab on command ..LMAO I can see it now... combined with one of D-O other "fancy" plugins... ok now I am straying ...

Ah, I would really appreciate it if someone rewrote this plugin for Heiling for German units. Instead of saying "Salute!" make it say "Heil!" and instead of the Grenade signal use the Sniper signal. It would be greatly appreciated guys. Thanks! :D
