hmz, pretty not bad, but...

you defenetely should correct it's shape...

use these blueprints:

Mi-24

Mi-24

Mi-35

there are weapons load outs... so you need to correct them too, in pix, where you demonstrate Mi-35 i see that rocket pods of that tipe are smaller than ir real...

Ok...

1.I add manually  flares

No...!!! What's the reason for manual flares? They'll not work as they're supposed to (meaning they'll not spoof the incoming missiles!).     I say stick to auto flares only.

But it looks cool in mission when you fly and drop flares when you attack a target even if there are no AAs in the area. Have you ever seen films from Chechnya or Afghanistan? Russian Mi24 were dropping flares while commiting an attacks. Thats why I would like to see manual flares.

[ag_smith 0]

Yeah,... but what if there's an AA site in the area and they launch a missile at you and even though you dropped a bunch of flares, they'll never work? Sounds like an absurd to me... the only way to make functioning flares that I know of, is through incomingMissile eventhandler and this implies the flares have to be automatic.

Coolness = Absurd

Well usually thats how it is .

OFrP's helos like Puma and Gazelle have similiar flares which you can take out manually.

Yes I understand, but I m talking from position of missionmaker/scenario writer and I think it would be nice to have such feature.

3.I dont knew the  explosion bug ,you can show me???

Try to attack the hind with something like a RAH-66 AA (DKM MOD).

Fire some stingers to the hind until it will explode in the air and you'll see the explosion (fire) displayed at the ground level instead of the right altitude (smoke effects and debris will be shown correctly).

Anyway it's not a big problem, you will be rarely in the position to observe this bug and usually, you will fire at the hind just until its pilots will bail out...

Hmm, let me read what I wrote...

Well, I guess that now everybody knows my terrible english!

Sorry, I will try to post some images, LOL!

Your not the only one...

It's not that unusual to spot me doing 200km/h at well below 10 metres... Or using the drive-in of Ocean city's McDonalds with Comanche, hoovering without gear or auto-hover, using yoke...

Great news, Vit.

Ad 1. Ok. I think the best choice is to let the player decide whether to use auto or manual flares -> option in action menu (Autoflares/Manual flares)

Ad 2. I think he means you should decrase the contrast or saturation of the textures. They are to vivid (too bright) when compared to majority of textures in OFP worlds.

I agree. Thats what I thought about from the begining but didn't know if its possible.

Yes right, in Photoshop its "Hue and Desaturation" i think.

Heres a example, this function was used also a tiny edit with the contrast

The one in the back is unchanged

Here you are, Vit  

Hind explosion bug

Notice that in this screenshoot the explosion is displayed on the ground while the Hind is flying at 90 mt above it.

I have noticed the same with almost all your planes.

Just a bug on my computer ?!

Which island is that with such hills, snake777 ?

Which island is that with such hills, snake777 ?

These hills look like from Airwolf mod or sth.

The flares could be activated by pressing a key in the keyboard if its selected to manual. That would give much faster response.

Tallking about flares, have it been mentioned if they actually affect incoming AA missiles?
