Author Topic: Simple Lock Picking Simulator  (Read 7076 times)

This is a simple Lock Picking simulator I made to eventually be implemented into my other game. It originally started out as a stand alone executeable, so you can try it out without extra junk added on to it.

You can choose either Lock Picker.zip, or Lock Picker v2.zip.

Controls:
Move mouse around to move the pick.
R: Reset game
1: Select hook pick.
2: Select rake pick.
3: Select second rake pick.
Scrolling up or down will increase or decrease the pressure from the tension wrench, creating more friction on the pins, and sometimes making pins set on the shear line.
When all the top pins are lined up correctly at the shear line, left click to unlock it.

By the way, this simulator isn't an exact simulation of how a real lock works. Locks work similarly, but the pins move differently.

Nope. Oblivion is one reason that I made this, though. I thought it wasn't very faithful to actual lock picking, so I decided to have a go at it, and put it in my other game. Of course, Oblivion uses different kinds of locks, so I can't really compare the two.


I used to see gameplay from some game that had this kind of lockpicking... I thought Oblivion...


coo
picking with a rake pick is piss hard though

Yeah. Rake picking with this simulator is pretty much useless compared to using a rake pick in a real lock. The only thing you can do is position it and hope for the best, really.
