nutter4ever 10 Posted November 1, 2011 Gotten up to the part where you have first videoed the whales, then it says fly around and see if you can spot any more. Flown over to the wreck and it says that there are reports of more in your area. Flown all over the area (over the water at least) and it's not prompting me to do anything more. Any one got any hints on how to progress this one. Thank you in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutter4ever 10 Posted November 1, 2011 Thank you. The tutorials are very good at how to fly a 'copter (in relation of the game anyway). Pretty much fail to give you an hints on how to play the game. Didn't even know I had a map =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VeefourLFC 10 Posted November 6, 2011 Is the whale mission random co-ords? I have tried the following: 1. Film group1 2. Fly to the Cargo ship 3, Fly West and film group 2 4. Fly north and film group 3 Cannot find the whales, been flying a total of hours and about to resign Take On Helicopters to my Steam archive, fed up of looking for bloody whales with no hints or help.

Zaphoon 10 Posted November 6, 2011 I'm having the same problem with this mission. I filmed the first group of whales, flew to the second marker and filmed that group, found the cargo ship, flew to the third marker and found nothing. The marker says the whales may have moved, so I flew the northern zone until my fuel light turned red, twice. I drove off the whale about to beach itself, and reported another beached whale, but still haven't found the ones I'm supposed to film. I've noticed that you have to fly under 1000 ft or so for the objectives to trigger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sneagle 10 Posted November 7, 2011 Fly under 300 feed, if there is no one, you must see the group 3 a little south behind the two boats. Fly slow ( 150 knt ) to enter the marker for the wales. 3Green, Sneagle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drdavid 10 Posted November 20, 2011 Same as Zaphoon - whales 1 and 2 filmed then looked north of wreck - found 2 whales but no indication of filming. After 15 minutes the Oil warning light comes on! And then the video camera screen (insert) goes blank... Can I just go back to base? Wish I had floats on this helo! Cheers - Dai. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DnA 5154 Posted November 21, 2011 Did you check your map (M) for a hint on where they may be cruising? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lorgarn 1 Posted January 23, 2012 Hello, I am also stuck at this. I have followed the boat. Then I found the whales and let Kelly make fancy pictures of those. After that I am told to look for more whales. I traveled to the marker and found them BUT, Kelly is not filming them. I flew around them from all angles. I flew low, I flew high. I flew directly above them, I kept some vertical distance to them, no avail. I am sure, that I am at the right koordinates, I can see the models of the whales in the water. Can't even scare them away, almost landed on one of them, but nothing happens. I do not see what to do here. Regards Lorgarn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DnA 5154 Posted January 23, 2012 Did you try hovering near them (~150m distance / 50m altitude) so that they were on your right side and Kelly could see them? Try filming another group first perhaps (though the order does not matter). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lorgarn 1 Posted January 23, 2012 Now I have figured it out... I was hovering over the whales I had videotaped previously. Thanks for the headsup. Simple case of 'user too stupid' Regards Lorgarn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
