Gruman 123 Posted January 4, 2011 Thats great :). But i assume for us TrackIR users, it wont help much? There isnt a stable Aimdot which doesnt move, when you use Freelook to look arrond? But either way, thanks for the work. Still can use it for the Hud Data :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AnimalMother92 10 Posted January 4, 2011 Thats great :).But i assume for us TrackIR users, it wont help much? There isnt a stable Aimdot which doesnt move, when you use Freelook to look arrond? But either way, thanks for the work. Still can use it for the Hud Data :) Pretty much, it functions like the HUD on the Apache or Wildcat and afaik they have the same limitation. Thanks for the addon! It's very useful! There is a problem though.. when loading a save game your head/aim is down: Hmm, I'll try and repro that. @mirrors Thanks :) Glad some people find this handy.

maturin 12 Posted January 5, 2011 The loading issue used to apply to Mando Missiles' HUDs, and he'd probably post a whole page of code on how to fix it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted January 5, 2011 Thanks for taking the time to inform us about your release :cool: Apologies it took me a while before adding it but work is busy and I am pretty much the only one working on Armaholic (news related) as Big is ill.

11aTony 0 Posted January 5, 2011 It would be cool to have this addon in PvP tweaks like AH1Z HUD. Anyway, thanks for this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Release frontpaged on the Armaholic homepage. Thanks Foxhound :) Very nice to see this, addon require to have patch 1.57 though. Lol im still useing 1.54. You can dePBO it and change the line requiredVersion=1.570000; so that it should run without 1.57 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j rock 10 Posted February 7, 2011 nice finally find ur thread where i can get a message to u,,, i just wonder if u r gonna intergrate it with ACE, i thought thats what u were planning on, since i saw u first announce this idea on the dev haven ACE bug and feature tracker page, some thing change? it will surly come in handy since the current model gauges isn't really that pratical.

AnimalMother92 10 Posted February 7, 2011 Referring to this: http://dev-heaven.net/issues/16182 ? Hopefully, it will be integrated soon. I ran into a few issues with it, namely that the proper crosshairs were not shown for the FLIR Little Birds (which I'm guessing has to do with their weapons being in a different turret in the config). Also the ".50 cal GAU-19" text does not display on the HUD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j rock 10 Posted February 8, 2011 rrrrrrr that is a trouble bird,,,, GAU19/FLIR.... would it be cause by this problem http://dev-heaven.net/issues/16475, unlikely since i really don;t know what i m talking about, but guessing is all i can do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
