Old man campaign.

[Colmaniac]

Hi, I have done several hrs on the Old man. I would like to know is how do you repair cars etc with the tool kit? I have several damaged cars and with flat tyres.

I cant find an icon that will let me repair them.

Scroll menu.

You need to find a service vehicle, and park next to it with the 'broken' vehicle to repair it.

The service vehicles are yellow with company adverts on them and yellow top lights. There are a few dotted around the island, and yes you can steal them to take them back to your home, the only one I know the location of right now is on the road leading into the georgetown police station.

I'd be careful about stealing service vehicles. Most of the ones in the towns/cities are classified as restricted, so any police or soldiers nearby will get alerted if they spot you driving off with one.

[Colmaniac]

ok thanks for the info. So the tool kits dont work and the repair trucks?

[mortified_penguin]

Toolkits work just fine. They just don't repair to full health, so you need a service vehicle or truck to properly fix it.

[Colmaniac]

Hmm, ok ty, I had a tool kit, but there wasnt an icon to fix it.
I have a car thats shot up, engine dead and a burst tyre, I have 2 tool kits, but there isnt an option on the wheel to fix, all it says is enter car, inventory or passenger seat

Are you running any mods?

[Colmaniac]

cva_A3, RHSAFRF/USAF/GREF, NIArms all in one, Enhanced movement, ACE no medical, ACE compat rhs gref/afrf and usaf

[mortified_penguin]

Yeah, I would suggest ditching ACE. ACE screws up a lot of systems in singleplayer...especially for Old Man. It's no doubt the reason why you can't use the Toolkit to repair.

Not sure why you need all the other asset mods though. Unless you use something like SSPCM to get access to the Virtual Arsenal, none of those weapons will actually be available.

ok thanks, I did try and disable the mods, but they are now tied into the game :(, I had the mods for Antistasi, when I came to Old Man the mods didnt work and had a black screen, suggestions were to turn off all mods, which I did, but some how some mods reactivated, wiered.

I'm having the same problem with using the tool kit for repairs. I can't bring up the little wrench icon ... there's no option to repair on the scroll menu. I've tried it with the tool kit on my "person", with it in my LBE and with it in my ruck. No joy?

Mods I'm currently running: Ravage, CBA-3 (or whatever it is Ravage requires), AimFix, dual carry weapons and ambient rabbits for Tanoa.

1. Check your mods.
2. Repairs work fine. You just cannot repair them to full "health" unless you get a repair vehicle or park next to a repair depot.
