SkitzoManiacal Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 alright, here's my problem. IN SP i see the computer jedi doing cartwheels and I want to do them too... Now, when i say "cartwheel" I don't mean jumping off a wall and I don't mean rolling. I would assume the move could be done with a variation of crouching, jumping, and strafing but so far nothing's working. I was just wondering if somebody could shed some light on this mystery...
The_One Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Don't jump to conclusions mate, he may have lost his manual. Maybe he did, maybe he didn't, but don't pre-judge people. I want to know how to do a cartwheel too!
SkitzoManiacal Posted April 8, 2002 Author Posted April 8, 2002 i do plan on buying it, i wanted to test it out first...but i just want to know how to do a cartwheel for now...
The_One Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Warez is strictly off limits in this forum. I'd advise you keep your mouth shut before you get yourself in trouble. Buy the game, then maybe someone will help you...

SkitzoManiacal Posted April 8, 2002 Author Posted April 8, 2002 I am definitely not a warez guy...I just borrowed the game from my friend to see if I like it... ...all i want to know how to do is a cartwheel
L3onheart Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Then if your friend bought it, he has a manual. Go ask him.
SkitzoManiacal Posted April 8, 2002 Author Posted April 8, 2002 my friend is gone on vacation for two weeks and he hasn't really played the game that much...i just don't feel like waiting 2 weeks
Pseudofun Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 does it even tell you how to do a cartwheel in the manual? i don;t remember reading it anywhere
Econ Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 The manual "doesnt" tell you how to execute a cartwheel.. What page are you reading...
SkitzoManiacal Posted April 8, 2002 Author Posted April 8, 2002 I don't think it does...because i've talked to others that have read through it and they don't know how to do it...I wish people wouldn't be so quick to condemn me to being a thief before they even know what's going on though
L3onheart Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 You have to wait 2 weeks? You can't play the game without doing a cartwheel? Nice story you got there mate. But since I've bought my copy in Portugal, I'll give the benifit of a doubt to you, because my manual tells, shows and even has a picture of Kyle doing a cartwheel, but since It's in Portuguese, there's a chance your's don't hav'em. Just side strafe against a wall and quickly press jump. Don't run forward or backwards, just strafe against it.
SkitzoManiacal Posted April 8, 2002 Author Posted April 8, 2002 I'm not sure if you actually read my post, but I said that I already knew how to strafe-jump off a wall, that's not the cartwheel i'm talking about. I'm talking about the one the computer occassionally does
L3onheart Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Then pardon my english ignorance but, then what the heck is a cartwheel?
CorranHornjr Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 I know the one you are talking about. I have asked this acouple of times and nobody seems to know. It might just be a npc move only. Like the slide forward that luke does or the really fast speed burst that they do as well.
CaptainRAVE Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 It doesnt say how to do most of the moves in the manual so dont start accusing people......anyway.... Unfortunatly only Reborn Acrobatists can do them.....its kinda like their special move. However I would really love to do it and am sure there will be a mod to allow it at some time.
SkitzoManiacal Posted April 8, 2002 Author Posted April 8, 2002 alright, the best way I can describe THIS cartwheel is that there are no walls involved...the character is always standing with its limbs outstreched. They spin to one side, placing one hand on the ground and then continue to complete their rotation until theyr'e back on their feet...i've been trying to get a levelshot but they move to quickly and I can't seem to bind that cmd to a key
enDless_Deliriu Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 The funny thing is everyone is condemming him for being a warez person and not reading the manual when the move isn't even in it. He's talking about the move that has several posts about it, and they're usually started by people who tell others to "Read the Manual" so I assume they bought the game. I believe he's talking about the handless cartwheel Tavion and the Reborn do instead of a side-ways roll. So far people have only seen the NPC characters do it. I don't know how to do it myself, and I've read the manual cover to cover several times. Don't believe I have it? Page 25 of the manual, under the heading "Shield Power Converter" first line, last word: directly Anyhow, we don't know how to do the move yet, people are trying to figure it out though
Wes Janson SMR Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Warez talk asside, here's your answer: YOU CANNOT EXECUTE A CARTWHEEL, period. It's an NPC-only move. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. Until someone mods it in (or digs around the config files), you cannot pull off a cartwheel without the aid of a wall.

dachish Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Oddly enough, the speed dash the NPC's do at times can be done by the player, but I've not the slightest idea HOW it is done. Twice now it's happened to me. It's like a second or two burst of force speed. I had it happen once in the level right after Yavin...it happened trying to dodge those evil snipers. And another time in Cloud City streets as I was rushing an enemy on a mountable turrent. I should mentioned I was replaying the game with setforceall 5 active.
Econ Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Originally posted by dachish it happened trying to dodge those evil snipers. I have seen it also when I was almost sniped.. The book mentions something about being able to dodge sniper fire. I thought I used mind trick on the Enemy and as soon as he fired I dashed out of the way.. pretty cool.
Hiteche5 Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 The dodge sniper shot things happens if you have Force Speed at level 2 in sp and are standing still. in mp You must have Froce seeing on and it will dodge sniper shots

No offense, but this is the exact opposite of what's true. In order to preform a cartwheel (the kick a$$ move the reborn love to do when the attack you from midair while they are upside down) all you have to do is run at your opponent and then press attack + jump simultaneously. I'm not sure if it requires a certain level of force jump but I know that it IS possible. No ifs, ands or buts about it . Just make sure that you are nice and close when you attempt it.
