Making your second playable unit into an AI and recruit him tutorial.

[Larry]

okay, many people are wondering on how they can use their second invisible man as a new teammate, so I decided to post here on what I did. first things first.
these are the things you need:
Support Call - "Cheat" module by Kronzky - http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=16953
Arma 2: OA
Daizy version that supports double player. (how to know if your daizy supports that? = play the game, while in game, press "Y" or "U", if your player changes, then it supports it.) pls take note, the other guy is INVISIBLE.

now on the steps:

1st: spawn your second player, then teleport it next to your first.

2nd:while using your second player (INVI-MAN), spawn some weapons, ammo's, medikits, backpacks.

3rd: when the second player is ready to become an AI (when his fully equip).. drop first the backpack. ( JUST THE BACKPACK IS TO BE DROP, reason: it will disappear after you didn't remove it. DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE THINGS NOT INSIDE THE BACKPACK, THAT ARE THE THINGS THAT WONT DISAPPEAR. )

4th: after you drop the bag, change the player skin using "SUPPORT CALL". choose your desire player skin.
NOTE!!!!!: on this, after you change him to something else, he now became an AI controlled, to let the AI control him onwards, switch back to your original player,
NOTE AGAIN: IF YOU SWITCH BACK TO YOUR ORIGINAL PLAYER, YOU CANT SWITCH BACK TO YOUR ANOTHER PLAYER ANYMORE, SO BEFORE MAKING A MISTAKE, CHOOSE HIS SKIN WISELY!

5th: Do the same on your original character. NOTE: if you choose the skin that starts like this - BIS_US..etc, then you MUST choose a skin that starts with also that. don't worry, your original player wont be an AI because you have no other controllable units that you can switch too.
ANOTHER NOTE: i think that even you choose "BIS_BAF..etc" to the second player, you can still recruit him if you are "BIS_US..etc" - this is unconfirmed, so its up to you..

6th: recruiting, to recruit him, stand near him, press esc, call support cheat, click members..etc then choose "recruit nearest soldier".. TAKE NOTE, I tried recruiting random survivors but wont work, but it works to random snipers..

don't understand the steps? ask freely, I'll try my best to explain it in a better way for you. xD

You do realize that the second 'player' is used for the game over screen, right?
