There is a small annoying bug with the guns.

Check 7:45 on this vid: http://www.twitch.tv/predator_v2/b/404654142

I have adjusted my joystick to control the guns (aim up, down, left, right), but when you don't constantly pull the joystick down, the guns tend to push up.

Very annoying, if you try to keep your aim on full zoom with a large circle radius.

Hm double image effect? Screenshots? Maybe try post processing off/very low.

I also use my joystick to aim the gun, which is way easier than with a mouse.

Actually I've got a question about the AC-130's nose. Apparently some AC-130 aircraft are equipted with a balloon snatcher for the man recovery system (also seen in Combat Ace: Assault Horizon) in case if a unit has been negalected. Here are some screenshots of the nose:

None of the real AC-130's are/were equipped with the Fulton Recovery System, those were MC-130 specific....

:computer: ok. (darn Assault Horizon...I thought it was for real.)

BTW: I know this question isn't part of the discussion, but which area do I post for skin requests of aircraft anyway?

Any thought on porting this over to arma 3 after your release? would be much needed and appreciated.

Awesome model, excellent script and I love this addon. I am sorry for asking a stupid question, but could you make the same addon for ARMA 1? No one is making addons for this game but It is still very good. And there is no AC130 script and addon.

@czechu77

I honestly just started playing at A2 so Im not sure about how A1 works, but once it works for A2 and A3 Id be happy to!!!

@predatorv.2

@mumblz

ABSOLUTELY WILL BE PORTED FOR ARMA 3 :)

well, the way I built it, It shouldnt take too long to port over. the ammo is made from scratch, the weapons are made from scratch and all the sounds were done by LJH so its pretty self contained

Hi J0nes, any idea on the bouncing effect I'm getting on the gun view since it appears that predatorv.2 doesn't seem to appear to have that.....

are you using the ac130 in a scripted mission or just in the editor with a couple units?

does your game lag normally?

Nope. Running the latest version of ACE2. System specs are Core i7 3820 @3.6GhZ, ASUS P9X79 Pro MB, 32GB of RAM, an EVGA GeForce GTX680 w/2GB of Video RAM. The game is running on a 2TB WD Caviar Black dedicated to games.

I'm thinking that it is being caused by that "excessive" wing rocking that is shown during the exterior view.

EDIT#2 - Disregard, the addon is PERFECT! I just ran the game with ZERO addons, just an AC-130 mod folder, and all of the DLC's..... Going to try and find the conflict over the coming days....

arrrghhh system specs.....I understood 0% of that.... but glad to hear it!

yeah, the autopilot is so script heavy at the moment that even some of the internal scripts in the 130 cause it to lag.

I don't have VFTCAS. I searched for it in my ArmA2 folder and nada. I'm going to slowly put addons back in.....

EDIT: It's ACE..... The two don't play well with each other.....

ill work on ACE compatibility eventually, but Ive made tons of progress with the camera stability. there are some cfg settings that have no record. theyre found in the viewoptics of turrets and used in UAVs. its pretty interesting stuff
