-Ash- 0 Posted April 25, 2003 *Start the Fanfares!* The team are proud to announce the beta release of what is possibly the most anticipated unit to ever appear for Operation Flashpoint.... The British Royal Navy Sea Harrier! Features of this beta download: Animated canopy Custom undercarriage Animated drop tanks and reduction in fuel when drop tanks are jettisoned Animated VTOL nozzles and vents Animated ejection seat VTOL and STOL capablities This addon has LIMITED VTOL capabilities. (This is because of the limitations of OFPs engine). Experiment with this. STOL is selected after engine started. In effect this capability gives a psuedo turbo-boost to take off, and uses a reversal of this for Short Landing. Head over to the Falklands War Mod to get it!!

marc0523 0 Posted April 25, 2003 I just finnished playing with this and... WOW The plane looks amazing and the eject seat works great, i cant manage to slow down or use the VTOL to very well but i am still enjoying playing with it, the alomitor (height thingy) sometimes goes to -11 when youre abut 3 metres above sea level but thats probably the way u built the VTOL. Out of interest how do u slow down and start usign the VTOL? I can if im already stopped but if im moving i cant slow it down properly When this does come out as non-beta its gonna need more of a manual than the Chinook from BAS needed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ExtracTioN 0 Posted April 25, 2003 this is beta right can you post bugs or ...... Well anyway when the plane is on the ground and you start the engine and dont takeoff just hit in the menu the eject seat and than return to plane and you can eject with the seat so how many seats has this plane I say this only if you guys dont know this bug and if it is possible to fix you guys maybe can fix it or mayne it is a engine limitation dont know when you use VTOL and press increase alltidude after some height there is a sound wat is that I dont say this is a bug but I want to know what it is And when you takeoff and you are at 200 speed how can you slow down and land with the VTOL Really nice textures I love it I saw the burn script but it does not dammage you I know the final version would be nice Ash Kevbaz the next suprise maybe a Aircraft Carrier please Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
