๐ About This Mod
Adds fully controllable free flight to Crimson Desert with manual air-toggle activation, hover, climb, descent, forward boost, live config and controller support. Built for 2.03.00.
DESERTLINK TRUE FLIGHT
Free Flying Mod for Crimson Desert
๐ DESERTLINK. APP
โค๏ธ SUPPORT DESERTLINK ON PATREON
Take control of the air.
OVERVIEW
DesertLink True Flight adds fully controllable free flight to Crimson Desert.
Flight is activated manually while you are airborne.
Press F on keyboard or LB on controller to turn flight on or off.
Once active, you can hover, climb, descend, boost forward and move through the world with much more freedom than the normal gliding system allows.
The mod also handles shutdown automatically.
Flight turns itself off when:
-
[]You close the glider and begin normal free-fall[/]
[]You touch the ground[/]
This means you control when flight begins, while the mod makes sure it stops cleanly when normal movement resumes.
FEATURES
-
[]Manual flight activation while airborne[/]
[]Stable hover movement[/]
[]Full climb and descent control[/]
[]Forward boost for fast aerial travel[/]
[]Additional roll-based forward surge[/]
[]Instant free-fall cancel[/]
[]Automatic shutdown when landing[/]
[]Automatic shutdown when returning to normal free-fall[/]
[]Keyboard and controller support[/]
[]Remappable controls[/]
[]Live-editable configuration[/]
[]Exact-build compatibility protection[/]
HOW TO USE
1. Jump or open your glider to get into the air.
Keyboard: F
Controller: LB
to enable flight.
3. You will begin hovering and can use the movement controls below.
4. Press F or LB again to disable flight manually.
You can also simply close the glider or land, and True Flight will switch itself off automatically.
Important:
Pressing the flight toggle while you are already in normal free-fall does nothing.
This prevents the mod from forcing the character into a frozen mid-air state.
