Meatball0311 79 Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) **REMOVE ALL OLD VERSIONS OF mar_pilot FIRST** ADDON : mar_pilot made by MAR Version : version 1.0 Release Date :14OCT11 ====================== CONTACT INFORMATION : ====================== meatball0311@usa.com ====================== REQUIRED ADDONS: ====================== ARMAII OA ====================== DESCRIPTION : ====================== A United States Naval Aviator is a qualified pilot in the United States Navy, Marine Corps or Coast Guard. ============================== CONTENT/FEATURES/CHANGES/BUGS : ============================== This is a Marine Naval Aviator wearing the CMU-33/P Survival Vest. It is worn by all Naval aviators, Navy and Marine. In ARMA it provides for additional storage and allows the pilot to carry a pistol and other gear while leaving his hands free. It operates in the same routine as the traditional backpack unit while removing the look of a backpack on the pilot. The CMU-33/P has not been tested with A.C.E 2, however even greater potential for its use may be found there. Units can be found under: BLUFOR > USMC > MEN ============================== CHANGELOG/BUGS/KNOWN ISSUES: ============================== **CMU-33 is dropped if usmc_fighter_pilot is place in the editor assigned as pilot of an aircraft. Place usmc_fighter_pilot as separate unit in editor to avoid this issue for now. ====================== CLASSNAMES : ====================== usmc_fighter_pilot ====================== INSTALLATION : ====================== The PBO and Sign files in the archive need to be extracted into your ArmA/Addons folder. However the mod folder method is the better solution. Copy the following URL into your browser to view a Mod Folder Tutorial : http://tinyurl.com/armamodfolder ====================== CREDITS AND THANKS : ====================== Pharohx - I cannot thank him enough for all the hard work he put into this project. He did an awesome job on the textures and is now associated with MAR.

pharohx 10 Posted October 15, 2011 We hope you all enjoy our addon. It took many hours of work and research to create this Pilot but it was well worth it to create something that has been missing since OFP. Thanks to Meatball0311 for his flexibility in taking on this project. He was a great listener and very positive at all times. We are still ironing out a few things related to the vest but feel that ACE 2 has some untapped potential as we progress. Please enjoy and we look forward to hearing some feedback from the commutiny. Now get flying, Marines! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pharohx 10 Posted October 20, 2011 Just wanted to update! I know I made it seem as though you should have gotten a new toy by now but, patients is a virtue...LOL Seriously, we've decided to release a pack instead of a single unit. Santa's workshop (MAR Defense Industries) is busy breaking wooden mallots getting it ready for you. We think you will appreciate the extra time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jetherjr 12 Posted January 23, 2012 Very good work that you have been developing, and people like you that makes me more interested in the fabulous WEAPON. I would like to ask if you intend to add to the project the Naval Helicopter Pilots and also to know the possibility of two choices (Display Up / Down Display) for both units Naval Fighter Pilot (U.S. Marine and Navy) and Helicopter Pilot ((Marine and Navy). I think that would cause there were more pilots deficiency Realistc Naval Units Thanks for the addon and hopefully we can get talking .... if you need some help on the texture can count on me I'll be ready to help ... tanks Jether Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lavbo0321 5 Posted May 14, 2012 noob questions alert. Very nice addon. Really adds more depth to the flying aspect of the game. How do I effectively replace the current pilots flying my equipment (aircraft)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedra 11 Posted May 14, 2012 It depends... If you want the unit to replace the standard pilots in all missions, you will need to write a replacement config. If it is a mission you have written then you need to spawn an empty plane, a pilot and then move him into the plane... pilot1 moveinDriver plane1 if your pilot is pilot1 and your plane is plane1.
