how to ski?

hey, just installed the game and the skiing doesn't work for some reason… I hold down Space and my character just jumps around

running under wine+linux

  • Jumping is how you deal with the friction, gravity is what gives you speed. Hit the slopes on the downhill and use your jets to maintain momentum and get air going up for your next drop. You'll want to be playing Classic or a similarly tuned mod if you gotta go fast.

  • it's just skiing is VERY different in every other Tribes game, here it's more like a bunnyhop

  • There are a couple of good Youtube videos out there.... Search for Tribes 2 Classic skiing. I never was a very

    good skiier in T1, but I have gotten better over time in T2 Classic. It's got a lot to do with timing and the

    angle that you hit the slope. I like to watch guys who are good enough that they use the sides of hills

    to change their direction side to side like being in a half-pipe.
