I did it! In the 10th try I think! It was fun. Also the person that brought to this to DEMO (getmika) was Freedom. Getmika thinks it was Freedom.

I'm the one who showed him how to do it the day he wanted to do it, and told him I had seen it done, I showed him, I did it, and I suppose he went on to showing everyone else :P

It's easy to set up a hopmod where you can survive: Go to the.mis file, and change the "Floor" value to -1. Works best on Cranium Crater, TT1_3.mis. Then, just line up the pads as getmika told you, and hop away!!!
I'm a newbie so ^ DJ's instructions are lost on me, starting with "Go to the.mis file."...What? I guess I'll never be a modder. Moder? Hey, I don't even know what "mod" means.
Anyway, I did try this in Cranium Crater but I could not make it work. Only one of the pads would turn, so I tried on several different servers but it was all the same. I could not get one of the arrow pads to turn toward the island. I don't know how getmika did it but if I see him/her I will get him/her to show me.
I still say an island hopping mod would be cool.
MIS files are found in the ThinkTanks source code, find the folder that TT's program files are in, and go to game/data/missions. Open the file called TT1_3 with a standard text editor, like WordPad or MS Word (NOT recommended, -z- likes UltraEdit in particular). Then, scroll down a bit, and you'll see "floor = 90". Change it to "floor = -1". Try it, and CC's fog becomes harmless. But it will NOT help you hop, you have to double all values of the area for that. Scroll up a bit to do that.
Thanks to Woohoo for showing me how to island hop on Cranium Crater. I did it with some success but limited survival.
YW Pug and don't for get to thank mika too for I learned it from him and there's another trick too...that TNT showed me at the same place at cranium and it's hidding or sinking under the slanted rock beside the ammo reloader...I tried it and I sank under the rock but u have to keep going forward llike trying to push the rock...while u are doing that u will sink under the rock slowly and dissappear...I tried it with the scrum and it worked but got killed before I got way under it...i also tried it at Battlemode and they could'nt kill me.... XD
The other thing that Pig showed me was at the same place"cranium crater"where there's a very pointy spot along the edge at the other side of the ammo reloader...I watched him do it and he carefully and slowly went up the point spot and sank under that pointy spot and then suddenly bursted out of that point spot...he also called it Island Hopping.
There should be more tricks out there someone might know about..........?

Oh I forgot to mention that I made it to the very top green part of the island and I thought I was going to survive...but I end up exploding..... :(... XD

Woohoo,
I could not find the rock but I had a blast (literally) sinking into that point. I got flung backward to the other side of the map, I got flung across to remote islands or down and then up an island. I can see why Pig called it island hopping. I most was just flung downward but I never ended up in the same place twice.
DJ Crossfade,^
Thanks for the explanation. After I translated what you said into Mac osx I tried it. I survived much longer in the fog but then I would still lose my brains eventually. Then when I changed the TT1-3 file back again I would die soon after spawning. Weird. So I just redownloaded the demo and replace the file.
Thanks for the tip.
Here is a tip if you like island hopping on Cranium Crater. Open up a server and OBSERVE using MonkeeMan's observer script. Problem solved.
HERES A WAY U COULD DO IT!!! [OK OK I DID IT WITH "MODWIZARD...IF U WANT 2 GET IT GO HERE ]

Demo getmika was showing a bunch of us how to jump to an island from Cranium Crater today. I can't manage to do it. He was lining up two arrows I think but I'm not sure how he did it. Apparently you can't survive long on there but it looked like fun. Has anyone else done this?
