This mod is being released as a BETA for community testing and development. The project has been made through convertion of model of Mi-6A made for FS2004 by Vladimir Zchigulinskyi.

Credits: - Mi-6A 3d model - Vladimir Zchigulinskyi - sound of Mi-6A - NightIntruder - all liveries but two - Vladimir Zchigulinskyi - livery of Ukrainian AF (a grey one) - NightIntruder - livery of Royal Egyptian AF - NightIntruder - modification of cockpit mesh and textures - NightIntruder - rain textures - Gerrit Kranenbarg & Joe Binka - rain script - Silderoy - engine vibration script - CSJ & Gnat, modified by NightIntruder - attaching/releasing cargo script - by muckep, modified by Aplion ADDITIONAL SCREENSHOTS: DOWNLOAD: http://www.sendspace.com/file/wibr0d file: @mi6a.7z - 30.71 MB NightIntruder Edited May 20, 2014 by NightIntruder Updated version of the addon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NightIntruder 710 Posted December 20, 2013 Oh shi... Thanks for this workhorse! This was main heavy chopper in 40th Army in Afghanistan:cool: One more item in the OKSVA ArmA set. You are welcome :) There is a one particular CCCP AF livery which should fit to Afghan-Russian war era. Beside that fact, paint kit is available at avsim.ru and you can make and apply a your own one using setObjectTexture command. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NightIntruder 710 Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) hmm links are down on armaholic and avast told me that the installer is infested ^^ But I 'll try it ! Yeap, you are right gentlemen! Files on armaholic are removed and the one on sendspace was converted into sh...t by somebody. File uploaded on sendspace was clean and checked, no installer, its correct name was mi6package.rar and size 35,8 MB. I will reupload it again today. EDIT: Link on sendspace has been fixed and it is working now. Edited December 21, 2013 by NightIntruder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pulstar 55 Posted December 21, 2013 And now I'm receiving an error about lack of mi6_maxengine.sqf? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NightIntruder 710 Posted December 21, 2013 Nope. I am from Poland like vilas. Why? There is something wrong with my english (sorry guys)? :) ---------- Post added at 11:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 AM ---------- http://i43.tinypic.com/1072yar.jpg And now I'm receiving an error about lack of mi6_maxengine.sqf? Regarding missing .paa file - this one is correct and will be fixed in next release. It refers to missing texture map being seeing while looking at the heli through thermal sights. Also error about lack of sqf file is correct however I cannot find a real reason because fuselage vibration effect IS working on addon so we shouldn't get this particular error. Remember, it is still beta. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brigadeir998 10 Posted December 28, 2013 XD Fox. A friend of mine was flying one of these and I pulled an M14 out of a vehicle and put a spread into his cockpit, yet he survived... He didn't survive the CTWS Ammo in my Warrior, rapid fire doing enough damage to destroy a hummer in one shot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NightIntruder 710 Posted May 11, 2014 Please make CDF and CHDKZ textures for this chopper!) That's the plan, Fulcrum, however I am not in possession of paint kit of the chopper so it might be difficult a bit :) Please, wait for next release of the addon.

Gr1ggs 14 Posted May 12, 2014 this mi-6 looks very good, but what about version with passenger seats? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NightIntruder 710 Posted May 19, 2014 this mi-6 looks very good, but what about version with passenger seats? I am glad you like it and sorry to say that but I have already abandoned the idea as I though that it would be quite irrelevant to transport 90+ AIs / players in one helicopter in MP/SP environment, especially since it hasn't got any self-defense measures. There are enough other rotary-wing aircraft of east side available to transport soldiers into a combat zone, ie. Mi-2 "Hoplite", Mi-8/17 "Hip", Mi-26 "Halo" to type just a few from among all existed. Perhaps, the UNS dev team could make the passenger version for Viet forces but you would need to wait for the 2.6 release to check it ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
