Does this Tutorial work with Arma 3?

[chief_wiggum 17]

Hey Guys!

I'm just trying to get into some ArmA3 Modelling/Modding.

I've already learned the bloody basics with an old OPF Tut.

Now I want to create a small basic heli.

I've found this tutorial, but it's based ond VBS,

so i would like to know if this will also work in ArmA3. ?

Would be great if someone could enlighten me about this.

Perhaps you even have some tips for a noob? ;)

The basic concept should work just fine. The Visual LOD and the rest of the tutorial work for both VBS2 and ArmA 3. However, the config part of the tutorial may/will throw you some curveballs due to each version of the software requiring different syntax. I think most people will point you to looking at one of the sample models provided by BIS to find out how to get the config to work for A3.

But, while we're on the topic, why did the tutorial have us sharpen the top and bottom parts of the rotor mast? I understand smoothing the main part of the mast, but the top and bottom are mysteries to me.

AWC_Chief_Wiggim, feel free to PM me, I'd like to work with someone on a beginner's level, as I'm trying to learn the in's and out's of modeling past the first visual LOD.
