Arma 2 AV-8B Harrier II Port

Recommended Posts

It's going to require some more work, i don't know how long as i've never done this kind of modifications before.

If there's no unexpected problem and Kazimierz sends me all the files i need i'm guessing within Christmas.

excellent, the other mods like F-18 and Su-35 always seemed a bit too big (airfields too short to be realistic for operation, jets cover island too fast) for an island like altis which seems better suited to a smaller aircraft like the harrier

nice work looks good are you making a load out menu to ?

No.

Unfortunately i don't have enough time for that and i would have to remake all the proxies.

Also i should find some template first as i have no idea where to begin with.

Hello Chairborne, will you add a GPS system to help drop bombs? It will help massively with CAS missions and would be more effective as well.

I really like your Harrier, it could use a RAF skin and a raised seat as well! :D

Lookin great!! Good job Chairborne.

Yea I have a lot of fun with bomb proxies too. I played around a lot and now finally have some working layouts for my Su-34. But it still won't do exactly what I want : )

Would like to have a few empty proxies in my loadout mid wing but that just won't happen

Also, great skins Kaz!

I found out it's the new CAS jets classes that mess with the proxies.

Try making new classes or using the ones from the buzzard instead, that should solve your problem. :)

Where in the config or model would the new classes be?

Uhm open the config viewer and check the magazines[]={...} array for the CSAT and NATO CAS jets, if your magazines are subclasses of one of them they're gonna make a terrible mess with proxies.

I think they are coded to work on specific proxy indexes so they show up where they shouldn't.

I used the scalpel as parent class for my mavericks and everything went into place correctly.

Ahhh, yes yes... BI's habit of designing stuff for their loadouts first and foremost (and any moddability being a happy accident) rears its ugly head again. :/

UPDATE - V0.3 31/01/2015

Finally the British Harrier GR.7/9 is finished!

I made some small modifications to the already existing model to give it a closer resemblance to the british counterparts of the US Marines jet.

They feature a redesigned shorter nose and two additional pylons.

They come in two variants, GR.7 with Mavericks and Mk-82 bombs, and GR.9 with GBU-12 guided bombs only.

On top of that, the USMC Harriers have new textures too (except for the multirole one).

Many thanks to Kazimierz who made this contribution!

There are also some other changes, the pilot now sits higher, the jet has more realistic dampers and materials were improved.

Finally, i changed the editor menu arrangement, they now appear under dedicated factions.

V0.3 - 31/01/2015

-Added Harrier GR.7/9

-Added new USMC textures

-Reworked faction classes

-Improved materials

-Tweaked glass texture

-Raised pilot proxies

-Added hiddenselection for custom textures

-Improved dampers

-Gatling gun now has correct particle effects

-Collision lights updated

Oh....my god...I need some tissues....be right back...

---------- Post added at 13:18 ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 ----------

I'm back.....the GR.7s and 9s are just adorable, personally I would have preferred them to stay in the NATO faction but thats just me!

Appreciate your work!

BTW, the GR.7 and 9s have larger wings compared to the AV8B but whatever :o

Congratulations Chairborne! I'll continue working on the Italian and Spanish versions as well.
