Rav_Raven 8 Posted April 2, 2014 @Daantjeeuh LIFTER v1.04 mod already has support MARSOF. @ cym104 I can assure you that after several years (LIFTER comes from ArmA2 January 2010) is one of the best methods to determine the possibility or not of a helicopter lifting an object. Obviemente, ideally, would be that each creator addon (BIS included) put in the config of each object, a property indicating the weight thereof. This does not happen in reality and never happened since Operation Flashpoint ( the predecessor of the ARMA series 2001-2002 ) and only the ACE mod for ArmA2 approached the ideal. Anyway, in real life "generally", the objects become heavier, are bigger and more powerful helicopters are also larger (again , I speak in general). So if volumes will compare and contrast with a table of limits based on the experience of raising and verify a vast number of objects and vehicles, can be sure to approach a reliable method to determine if a helicopter "may" or, lift an object. The only thing left is to determine where to place the object position on the helicopter (my main headache) because there are many objects whose geometric center is moved out of position and are on the ropes. The method is not perfect, but although improved, has proven effective and saves me from having to maintain huge lists of objects and compatibility with vehicles of different mods.

Then maybe u can consider making some adjustments to the ratios so that an arma3 blackhawk(uh-80) can lift an arma3 hmmwv(hunter), just like a real blackhawk can lift a real hmmwv?

kgino1045 12 Posted April 3, 2014 That's strange, because i try with ch-147F the Canadian Chinook but can't lift hunter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rav_Raven 8 Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) @cym104 Ofcourse. The mod is far from perfect and needs the contribution of each to improve it. I'll be grateful for the help you can give me. (I'll see what the UH-80 and HMMWV). @kgino1045 The CH-147 (Canadian) has some problems of scripting in its design, which have given me problems LIFTER. But I just tested and I can confirm that lift the Hunter. Edited April 3, 2014 by RAV_RAVEN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kgino1045 12 Posted April 3, 2014 Yeap it work with CH-147F but i have to deploy sling on the engine side Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rav_Raven 8 Posted April 3, 2014 Remember that since v1.03 the search area at the lower end of the sling is an area of ​​7 meters diameter (the geometric center of the object should be within it to be detected). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cym104 10 Posted April 5, 2014 @cym104Ofcourse. The mod is far from perfect and needs the contribution of each to improve it. I'll be grateful for the help you can give me. I'd suggest u move the definition of those constants to a separate userconfig file and allow them to be manually overridden from a mission's init.sqf, so mission editors and server admins won't need to mess with main.sqf to tweak these values to suit the mission's specific needs or server preferences.

SerialMum 10 Posted April 9, 2014 Hi, this mod is a must. Thank you for your work. One Question, comment to the new Fast Roping: It works as described if the player is pilot via action menu and it works perfectly with ai via mentioned script. I did not check yet, what happens if player is pilot using the menu and another player is cargo (but regarding kgino1045s post it did not work also) But I tried player as cargo - and it ended everytime with the dead of the player. I got the action menu as cargo - that failed. I used the script - that failed too. Does it work as Cargo, if so then how? cu SerialMum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kgino1045 12 Posted April 9, 2014 Another bug seems like it's stuck with JIP. if other player join later, that guy can't deploy fastrope Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rav_Raven 8 Posted April 9, 2014 -Problem-JIP is easy solution. Just get home I see. -I will add a couple of missions pack (human pilot and pilot in charge) and throw a hotfix to clarify the issue a bit.

DJankovic 401 Posted April 9, 2014 Hey man... so i today i saw you updated and gived us the best thing for insertions thank you on that. But i would like to report some stuff. So I spawned empty CH47 and me and 4 AI enter it on water Assault boat witch AI is controling..i hovered over it and deployed sling now i attached it and take off. I get option to deploy ladders and here problem occurs only guys in helicopter are getting option to get OFF the boat even if they are on helicopter and guys in boat are not getting any option to get on helicopter. Now i mistakenly presed drop cargo but forgot to detach ladders and there is bug where slings and ladders are staying on attached on boat but i am getting new deploy slings. Or that is mybe because i was switching AIs. Thank you again for great addon i am big fan of the Act of Valor and my favourite scene is that boat insertion and extract.
