Installing The Ramp
- This MARS System was built for the 4 Door Medium Paladin. While it can be removed and attempted to be put onto other vehicles, it was made for that model specifically. No promises it will work for other models or vehicles.
Instructions to link to Paladin
- Ensure that the vehicle is turned off, including any lighting or other components that may change any attributes while installing the modification.
- Take a copy of your vehicle as-is. Modifications may cause damage or unlink prims accidentally. Save a copy now in case this happens!
- Rez the modification near your vehicle.
- Right click the modification and select "Edit".
- With the Edit window open, hold your SHIFT key and left click the vehicle. This should select both objects at once. Make sure you select the vehicle last.
- Press your CTRL + L keys, or click the "Link" button in the Edit window.
- If prompted, confirm that you want to link the two objects together.
- When linked, the modification should automatically position itself to the recommended position and resize if necessary.
- If prompted, grant link permissions. This may unlink some prims. Make sure to delete them after.
- If desired, you may usually move the equipment once linked.
Adding A Rappel Bar
- This repel bar allows for deployment of the rappel rope to get over large fences/walls. This is perfect for rapid deployment.
- Ensure that the vehicle is turned off, including any lighting or other components that may change any attributes while installing the modification.
- Take a copy of your vehicle as-is. Modifications may cause damage or unlink prims accidentally. Save a copy now in case this happens!
- Rez the Rappel Bars near your vehicle.
- Right click the modification and select "Edit".
- With the Edit window open, hold your SHIFT key and left click the vehicle. This should select both objects at once. Make sure you select the vehicle last.
- Press your CTRL + L keys, or click the "Link" button in the Edit window.
- Once the item is linked, the Rappel bar will automatically position itself once the scripts have updated.
Operating The Ramp
- Operating of the ramp is very straight forward. This can be done through the transferable HUD supplied in the box.
Syncing the HUD
- To sync the HUD, simply sit in the vehicle passenger or driver seat, then press the sync button on the HUD.
- The vehicle will then listen for commands from the HUD.
- When the HUD is synced, there can be two operators. A Passenger and a Driver can both operate the MARS System at the same time.
Moving The Ramps
- The ramps are moved with the arrows. Simply select the side you would like to operate and use the buttons to move the ramps.
Using The Rappel Bar
- The Rappel Bar is a special add-on used for getting over large walls.
- The Rappel Bar can be activated by simply getting close to the rappel bar and clicking it to deploy it.
- Once the rappel bar is deploy, you can touch the carabiner to deploy the rope and fast rope down.
- To fold the bar, simply touch the support structure of the Rappel Bar to fold.
- If the Rappel Bar does not deploy when touched, stand closer and try again.
Using The Side Steps
- The Side steps allow for SWAT members to hold onto the side of the vehicle for bigger groups to use it for breaching.
- Before the steps can be used, they will need to be deployed. Simply touch the side step and the step will deploy.
- If the step does not deploy when touched, stand closer and make sure you're on the vehicle's access list.
