[WIP] Medium Utility Helicopters

[GrumpyRhino 30]

Work in progress.

The helicopters in this mod are created from the medium helicopter from the game Take On Helicopters. Take On Helicopters: Samples

I replaced the original TKOH rotorblades with those from the old huey. Textures on the old rotorblades are made by CptDavo.

Additionally ColonelHartigan will be helping.

Not all helicopters are 100% completed yet, but they should all be flyable.

Bell 412 'Rescue'

UH-1D

UH-1N 'Blue'

Advanced Flight Model is implemented.

- Bell 412 helicopters uses the Mohawk AFM

- All others uses the Hellcat AFM

During the next month more helicopters will be added to this mod.

Interesting! Considering that BI didn't release TKOH MLODs (unbinarized models), I take it that you debinarized the Bell 412 and UH-1 models?

[mdtorch 39]

Will we get those Toh Hinds too? :)

As RKSL-Rock wrote, I'm using the sample models released by BI. I added the link to the TKOH samples in the description.

Will we get those Toh Hinds too? :)

No Hinds, only huey style helicopters. I don't have the TKOH Hind in an unbinarized version.

UH1D Rescue or sar defense still very nice :)

I can add a UH-1D with medic interior, but there are more pressing thing on the to-do list before I get to that.

Glossyness will be tweaked later on.

Thank you.

Nice project!

Thanks.

Would you please consider making green camo and grey textures? Thanks ;)

note that you are actually authorized by BI to unbinarize the following PBOs if you want to use those assets in arma 3

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Take_On_Helicopters_Data_Pack

that pack was also released under the APL-SA license authorizing you to use it for arma.

here's the sitrep saying it http://dev.arma3.com/post/sitrep-00104

Unbinarizing has never been allowed, as per forum rule 3.

the wiki says the following:

Binarized data from the Take On Helicopters series in PBO files. The purpose of this package is to clearly identify which game data is licensed for public use and modification, and what are the related conditions and requirements. Note that files indicated as "parts" are separate archives which can be unpacked independently from the other parts of the package, the data was split only for the purpose of easier manipulation with the files. Please note that TKOH data are licensed for creating derivatives for both the Take On Helicopters and Arma games.

[alganthe 74]

from the sitrep

You can download the goods via direct FTP links, but we recommend using our official Torrents. Another option is to subscribe to the (massive) "licensed_data_packages" branch of Arma 3 Tools. Various modders have asked us whether they can de-binarize the data within these licensed PBOs. Our goal is to stimulate the enrichment of the Armaverse with these releases. Therefore, we are OK with such use of the data, as long as the license is observed (Attribution, Noncommercial, Arma only, Share Alike for APL-SA). You can also go over the F.A.Q. for more information.

HI GrumpyRhino. Very nice addons! :) However I see that u write that in the next month u will add some Helicopters. U will add more type of heli, or you will add only new version of the heli u have release? Thanks and good job!

Hello, GrumpyRhino

I would like to congratulate him for the work done so far in this fantastic aircraft.

My group and I, we look forward for the next news and updates.

Congratulations!

[bravom5 2]

Very nice GrumpyRhino I loved those helis in TOH glad to see someone is porting them to ARMA 3. The current version is great quality doesn't really seem like an alpha :), keep up the great work!

[kotaco 13]

I would very much like to see someone take on a EC135 Medevac variant. This seems like a great pack to tackle that in!

[wolfgarth 74]

You added hiddenselection for the UH-1D?

[Teddybear1 11]

This will eventually have the sling load thing that carries people too,right?

For once ,we will get a stable helicopter flight model,from Take On.

I hope it will have a Search Light,movable from pilot seat.

[colonelhartigan 50]

Hi, I have a reply for Churrofighter and GamerOnkel about the textures.

I will be making some textures which will be included in this mod; I made a camo texture for GrumpyRhino for his last Huey mod (one of my source pictures was actually the camo Huey posted by Churrofighter) and look forward to working with him to bring many Huey variants to this mod. At some point down the line, this mod will definitely include a camo Huey variant like the one posted, a new Marines texture, a Heer army texture, and German SAR texture. And ideally I will get around to other variants too, such as the Australian Bushrangers, American SAR, or G-Huey. But I haven't much time for working on modding, and haven't much skill either, so it will take a bit of time, but I promise you they are in the works.

[reforger 30]

@GrumpyRhino

Amazing mod with high quality. Thank you for your work.

a Heer army texture, and German SAR texture.

Great to hear that. Here are two gallerys with very good pictures of the german "Tepichklopfer":D:

I can't find any of them in the editor

[GrumpyRhino 30]

In case anyone is wondering, I have not de-binarized anything. Binarized assets from TKOH are added as proxies. I wouldn't know how to use de-binarization anyway.:o

Sorry, it's more than I can handle.

You added hiddenselection for the UH-1D?

Will be added later(hopefully in the next update).

This will eventually have the sling load thing that carries people too,right?

Only normal slingloading. I don't know how to make people-slingloading.

So far searchlights can only be operated from turrets. I'll try experimenting with it later.

Some helicopters are civilian. Look under the civilian faction.

Next update is almost ready, I just needs to fix a few more big bugs. Update will be ready before saturday.

[Barry_Obama 10]

It's not that, they're just not loading up into the game. I'm unzipping the .rar with 7-Zip, do I need to use a different program?
