H.B.M.C. Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 I know that if you jump whilst strafing into a wall you do a sideways, mid air cartwheel in the opposite direction, but a few times (most in the Pit level) I've jumped diagonal and up away from those small ledges, with my (if jumping to the right) left leg out straight and my right leg tucked up. It's a common move I know, but I can't seem to do it at will like I can the wall walk or back flip. Anyone know how you do it? BYE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obi-Cyph Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 I've had it happen a few times, I think its actually a by-product of flipping off the wall as soon as you start a wall run. While I can't test it at moment (busy), I think I've managed to get it happen by doing a wall run, and then hitting space straight away, while still strafing into the wall. Give it a shot, not sure if it'll work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come to think of it, the "jumping sideways thing" looks like a wall-walk in mid air, but your feet don't move. Maybe it is a type of "failed" wall walk that actually looks cool and has uses.

Obi-Cyph Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 Hrm, I know what it looks like, can't remember how to do it though. Maybe you've hit a small curve or something and its doing that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Con. Snake Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 looks like a wall-walk in mid air, but your feet don't move. I do this somewhat often, Usually in a crowded area, while tying to jump to a side, I end up starting a wall walk off someones back, then poof, im flying through the air like that. Next time it happens I'll have to grab a screen shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darksider Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 If you are moving in a direction but not actually pressing the key (ie you release the key before jumping or its a long jump and it happens anyway) you go into the 'flying' pose, it looks quite cool.

Chato Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 actually it's called a Fairy Jump due to the look of the jump (FJ) i've named it with 2 or 3 friends from #jediknight @ gamesnet don't confuse with the Butterfly jump Press any directions, relase, and press jump in that same second. The one to the back is a little harder but not much C yu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BYE To do a sideways lunge, strafe in one direction then simultaneously [while still strafing the original direction, press the opposite strafe button and jump. Doing a similar pattern while going foward will do a fairy looking swan dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
