Wurnman 1 Posted June 1, 2012 Hey all, I just recently bought Take On Helicopters and I love it. Ive always loved flying games/Sims and recently decided to buy MS Flight Simulater X and now Take On Helicopters. One thing that bothers me slightly are the graphics for the AI vehicles and ground/roads etc. It looks awful to be honest. I have noticed this with MS Flight Sim also, but thisgame being a few years old. Recently I played GTA IV and Saints Row III and both had really good graphics concerning landscapes/cars when looking down from a plane or Helicopter. Especially GTA IV had good graphics. So far i have not seen any good graphics (ground based from the air) in any Flight simulator. Is this because the area one coveres in a flight sim is too big for any pc to handle or not much time spent designing the ground maps? Which brings me to my final question, will there be a Take On Helicopters II in the near future that anybody is aware of? Thx, Wurn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purepassion 22 Posted June 1, 2012 If you want high fidelity ground units, check out Take on Helicopters: Rearmed! The developers released a patch for free which enables you to use content from and merge TOH with Arma 2. It lets you use the content and of Arma combined with the heli awesomesauce from TOH :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[evo] dan 79 Posted June 1, 2012 I actually hope they make a Take on aircraft using the A3 engine at some point if they don't add a new flight model for jets into A3. Although an expansion or 2 wouldn't be bad for TOH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They plan to make the a3 helicopters utilize the ToH FM if that's any consolation :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

almanzo 144 Posted July 20, 2012 I was to suggest the same thing as PurePassion... You need to have ARMA II though, but I'd recommend it... Chernarus is a beauty! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man, do you use Blakes mods for TOH? If not you should check em out. It vastly improves the Picture in Picture stuff (control access etc) Nothing like flying long line with a functional load cam, which is not just a triggered event... or using one of the other 360 cameras which you can directly control with the top hat on your joystick or similar. I recomment Blakes WorkShop (Pip stuff mainly), Autopilot and sling load (pip sling load cam). The trim indicator also seems good, but I cant get that one to work. Here is a pic of me using the long line cam for the Seattle needle mission. EDIT: I would rather have more DLC for TOH 1, but it needs to have a interesting single player campagin. Take on Hinds was a bit disappointing if it wasnt for the fact that its the only attack helicopter in the game. On a larger scale I actually think Bis should expand DLC production for Arma 3, but instead of low quality stuff people should buy access to key DLC vehicles. So if you are a helicopter freak and bought all the A3 Heli fanatic DLC with TOH standard+ you could fly the helicopters from that, but you could still make a mission that had them in it and play with none DLC people which would see them in HD, but wouldnt have access to use em unless they had the DLC themselves. Except for maybe being none gunner passengers. Would be silly to have a troops transport heli no one could board :D Edited August 1, 2012 by JojoTheSlayer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
