Moving gunner animation example - MH-60L

Recommended Posts

I've had a few requests for this old addon over the years, so I thought i would release it as a stripped down example. The only thing it does is show how to set up turrets with a gunner that can move and keep his hands on the handles. Not the most complete effect but still miles ahead of the gunner just sitting there motionless. It has no other animations or textures and is just a kitbashed model from the Arma1 mlods. Everything is free to use of course.

The effect can be seen in this old vid:

History:

This addon is so old that the original mod was done before the Arma 1 tools were released. I retextured the default uh-60 and then added the MH-60 parts by setting them up as a soldier that would then board the chopper through scripting, thus adding the new parts. Once the tools came out with the open mlods I tried doing some fancy things with animations. It had blades that curved with load and I simply attached the gunner to his turret and added an animation to turn him in the reversed direction that the gun was turning. It looked neat. This effect could be applied just as easily to a unit that turns with the gun (like a tripod) and only would need to be animated for the elevation. Arma3 is hopefully going to have a similar effect.

beeteedubs I'm sure this is the right section; it is not a complete addon and is just an example of config.cpp, model.cfg and .p3d editing

Nobody else has seen this yet !?!

Thank you so much for releasing this Sakura Chan! I'll definitely play around with this, but it won't go further than that in my hands ha. Hopefully someone with the expertise and motive will make something neat with this!

this addon is nice.

however, a few things to say:

-is it possible to make a version without the fuel probe? so that we can choose either with or without it.

-put a copilot in the chopper please, it will be more "realistic" (like ADuke did on his choppers, or like the UH-1Y)

-can you heck if you can add norrin's fastrope directly to this addon? like in the ADuke helo pack or in the MH-47E from konyo?

thanks
