Usmc uh-1n

Recommended Posts

Great addon with some great texturing, only thing I didn't like is that the pilot is "hovering" above his seat. IMHO Pilot proxy needs to be lower. Altough as I said great texture work. smile_o.gif

Very cool!  You actually could have saved yourself alot of work and modified the UH-1N from my mod (Lost Brothers).

But still it looks very good.  

Things for improvement:  Extending the nose just a tiny bit.  The UH-1N seems to have a slightly pointer nose section then the Vietnam era Hueys or is that just my imagination?

Also on the door gun, I would recommend putting in a minigun.  You can perhaps ask DeadMeat of BAS for permission to use the doorgun from their blackhawks.  In Iraq, this is the weapon I usually see them using as a doorgun.  In alot of the video from the Fellujah assault you often saw the UH-1N's flying with AH-1W Super Cobras in hunter/killer teams.

You could see the minigun going off by the big long puffs of smoke coming from the doorgunner area and you could hear that wierd sound of the minigun.

Perhaps two or three variants could be made to include one with rocket pods.  

Below is a pic of the doorgunner and you can see that mounting bracket under his gun.  That bracket is what holds the rocket pods.

At any rate, aside from the floating pilot issue, its a great UH-1N and I'm looking forward to sticking Earl & Sucheys Marines on it for some USMC missions.

EDIT-

Oh another BIG BIG bug... it has the BIS muzzleflash and BIS logo bug on it. Ack...nevermind...not usable in missions until those are either removed from the LOD's are fixed.

Yeah its the same here.  I answered just looking from screenshots and now that I've tried it, yeah I got the same bug.  I think you have to have the original SEB Huey helicopter that its based on to avoid this.   This is a very bad bug and really prevents it from being used in my own missions until the muzzle flash and BIS/squad logo are either removed or that issue is fixed.  The constant muzzle flash is especially annoying.    But other then that the model is quite good and I see now that the rocket pod brackets/MG stand is modelled on this helicopter which is very cool.  Just no rocket pods yet.  smile_o.gif

If those bugs were fixed and if minigun and rocket versions were made it would be perfect.   Oh...one other small thing... the engine sound is good, but is that from a Huey? One thing that I've always noticed about all Hueys is that they have a very heavy "Thop thop thop" main rotor sound that is very distinctive due to its two big main rotor blades.

btw it's not my addon if anyone was thinking that, it's just been on ofp.info for a while and seemed to be ignored or just not noticed.

Well even your Anafa does not have its nose long enough. Not mentioning you should also make medevac dust off version like I ve seen in Heyl Haavir. Also camo colour of your UH1N is not of that used in Heyl Haavir. As I remember sound is also not of that of real twin engine UH1N.

Things for improvement:  Extending the nose just a tiny bit.  The UH-1N seems to have a slightly pointer nose section then the Vietnam era Hueys or is that just my imagination?

No its not your imagination. Its true. Nose should be longer and slimer. Here are all versions of UH1.

Nice chopper, flies like a dream.

UH1.jpg

But it has some strange lightning, and what I really hate, it has no shadow.

I have no muzzle flash bug, and I am not using the sebnam chopper.

Yes Firefly, you are correct, our UH-1N Anaf needs its nose extended also and yes it does not have a UH-1N twin engine sound. However it does have the UH-1 rotor sound. I basically just need to figure out how to combine an engine sound and get it to loop correctly (its not easy to mix two seperate looping samples together). For now however I think its reasonably close and in this UH-1N addon I think the sound is "good enough". Thats why I thought it was just a small thing. But if you know of where to find any good UH-1N sound samples feel free to post them here.

Oswald- Yes I noticed something wierd... that AH-1W Super Cobra addon also now has that muzzle flash bug. Bizarre.

So apparently something is conflicting.

I'll have to experiment to see which addon is causing the conflict.

i dont have a muzzel flash bug

i dont have a BIS logo bug

i dont usualy look at my ass when im flying so i didnt even know the pilot is hovering.

my ONLY issue with this thing is: the class name "Preperation H - Air Vehicles"

ok i know alot of mods are coming up with some weird/sick names like PMS studios and preperation H mod, but can we leave that out of the editor class name please? when i boot up OFP i want to play with a UH1N not see an advertisment for hemriod cream rock.gif

could ya just stick it in "Air" class?

So "Tampex Productions" or "Viagra Mod Studio" wouldn't be good names for mod groups you think?

Tampex - Armour

Tampex - Air

Tampex - Car

Great, but remember to put correct colour scheme for Anafa as it is in Heyl Ha'avir. As for sounds yes I can record you exact interior and outside sounds of twin engine of Anafa.

The green color scheme was originally done by Vipersheart and is based on some pictures that may be out of date. But because we don't have a texture artist, it would take a LONG time for me or Calm Terror to make a new color scheme as we suck at it, and the results might not be very good. So we'll probably hold off on that until we actually get a good texture artist who can help us.

But back to this chopper.... still can't figure out what's causing the conflict thats causing the muzzle flash and BIS logo...wierd.

edit: viagra studios.. you know if someone made that a mod name it would just be to get a rise out of people. and you have to admit that it would be a hard mod to compete with

edit2: and the tampex mod would prolly put on a bloody good show with thier addons tounge_o.gifbiggrin_o.gif

Yes its true but take a look. Here is better picture of this colour. Its lighter than this in your addon.

One more thing do you have any pics of armed Anafa? I got only unarmed dust offs pics.

isn't this supposed to be about prep H's UH-1N  rock.gif

anyway great work  wink_o.gif

Yes it is. But since both addons are the same aircrafts then i think we can solve this problem here. If I m wrong then moderators can allways split this topik.
