Any idea on the release date of this BEAUTIFUL mod? I run the air wing in my Realism Unit, and the Littlebird is our ONLY CAS aircraft. If we had this we could destroy everything :)

Thanks everyone for the feedback!

Just a quick progress update:

We've been testing the base helicopter model, fixing damage and collision issues. On top of that we've started to work on the flight model. We expect to get into guns in the next week or so.

On the art side, all of the models are pretty much done, now it's a matter of making the textures.

Please feel free to comment and share your ideas!

Enough talk. Here's a screenshot!

Thanks again to everyone!

We know that you guys want to play with this already, so we're working hard to get it done. But we don't wanna rush through it and give you guys a shitty mod.

That said, here's a sneak peek at the 7-shot rocket pod to cheer you all up(GAU-19 is next) :D

Syko likes to land in/on unusual locations, so I'm sure it's gonna maneuver like a boss.

Thanks again to everyone for the kind words!

Regarding the flight model, we want to make something more realistic than the Hummingbird but without taking away the fun. We will be testing it with community members and pilots alike to get the best results :D

In other news... Mini Nukes confirmed!!!

Great looking screenshots. How is the polygon count in comparison with the vanilla games counterpart?

It has more polys than the Hummingbird but less than the Ghosthawk(heli model with the highest poly count i believe). We're constantly doing performance tests to make sure that the model doesn't use more resources than it should.

We plan on using a custom loadout system. So there would only be one bird that you would place on the map and be able to customize before jumping in the pilot seat.

That said.. if we have everything done before the loadout system is ready we might release the mod as a test version with preset configurations that you could palce down(e.g.: MH-6M, AH-6M(M134/M260), AH-6M(GAU-19/M134/M260, etc.).

Thanks!

Amazing work on the Rocket Pod textures, if all of them will look like that, which i highly belive i can already give you a 10/10.

We need more teams with that ammount of dedication to detail and perfection. Keep it up

Have you considered getting in touch with Johns Saul and Spartan(the makers of the FA 18/X Black Wasp Mod) their "service menu" is very user friendly!

Also, mini tac nukes are awesome!!!
