eggbeast 3673 Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) yeah well when you say standard, we researched a lot of variants check my spreadsheet here http://www.gitsarma.gamingdeluxe.net/projects/FRL_Air/plane_loadouts_stock6.xlsx the mi8/17 tab has a lot of info on the variants we refined it down to a group of 6 types. the main thing BIS didn't do, which could be done with standard models: early and modern variants (has (M) in our list), domestic mi8 and export mi17 AT-2, AT-3 (export) AT-6 on later variants AT-9 on even later variants gunpods (we made these so not really viable with stock models) - GUV, GUV AGS, SPPU22 S5 rockets UB32 / UB16 S8 rockets UB8 Fab250 bombs gun-wise we added a 50 cal Afanesev 12.7 into the nose - not in the release yet - as one of our guys used to fly these and suggested the change the most modern attack variant has 4 wing stubs the earlier models have up to 12 - 3 on top for AT-2/3 and 3 on bottom for rockets, pods and bombs if you have A2 you can download our mod here and check out some of the models in the demo mission http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=26409 you wouldn't want to go mental like we did (48 variants i think, 72 hinds etc) but a few variants might be cool.

That is a lot of versions lol. I'll see what i can come up with, i'm not going to do 48 different variants but maybe 3 or 4 more i guess are doable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gunny24 46 Posted October 29, 2014 if you do a superhind i will handover my first born´s thankfully :-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chairborne 2594 Posted October 29, 2014 It requires some modeling and texturing, so it certainly is not going to be done in the near future. Maybe in the next couple of days i might get to finish the Hind, i still have to do the weapons config which is always the most boring and tedious part.

deltagamer 612 Posted October 29, 2014 Ohally managed to get permission to use the CH-146 Griffon from Take on Helicopters in the Canadian Armed Forces mod. It could be worth a try to get permission to use the Super Hind that was seen in Take on Helicopters Hind DLC.

deltagamer 612 Posted October 29, 2014 Try and give DnA a PM. I believe DnA is the Take On Helicopters Project Leader. ---------- Post added at 22:59 ---------- Previous post was at 22:57 ---------- You sure he didn't just port the unbinarised model that was provided in the ToH Samples package?https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Take_On_Helicopters:_Samples Oh yeah I forgot TKOH had sample files released, I think you might be correct. Still though its worth a try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
