speaking of which Y2K3 will feature the Grey version of the AH1W armed with the standard bis 30mm and ffar's and the vit hellfires. reason for bis ffar and 30mm is due to thier customized sound and suchbeing perfect. also the stock sound too. in Y2K3 the stock sound for the helo is much nicer then the one vit choose.. but thats not to say his choice of sounds was "bad" persay. just not to my preferance. smile_o.gif

Goddamnit those holes are too BIG !!

hey kiss my ass  blues.gif  tounge_o.gif

Quote[/b] ]maybe add smaller holes for small arms fire

crazy_o.gif i think i covered the reason for not doing this.

Quote[/b] ]not 7.62. those holes would be unnoticable considering the resolution of the textures and such

in the words of dr evil (APIII) "see i did say that" tounge_o.gif

I test'em out a bit and wasted some baddies,although my ass was full of holes from the machine gunners. tounge_o.gif Love that feature on your birds and Dkm Comanche,I'm tired to sit with an gunship 10 meters above the enemy infantry and they're smoking some cigars,watching the clouds,piss on a tree and anything else instead actually use those PK's. smile_o.gif

Haha, thats the quick re-texture I did at 3:00am. I've yet to add weathering.

I've started work on a fictional desert scheme as well.

Thanks Vit. I was (mostly) joking, as you did all the hard work. Again, thanks for making great contributions to the community.

Will you be releasing a texture version that is the typical paint scheme for Cobras deployed on most U.S. Naval landing assault ships.

I'm fairly certain most of these don't use that camo when deployed from sea.  Bleak and boring the color gray may be, but its hard to spot.

Havocsquad:

The original, and the default "AH-1W Grey" is the standard two tone blue-gray color that's in the fleet. The other camos were just a nice bonus. So in short, it's there.

however.. get rid of the teeth. teeth on the grey version, snake on the desert version. nothing on the camo version.

This addon is great, but I thing that you made wrong pylons  sad_o.gif  In my opinion ah1w can't use this type of Hydra launchers (they are too big),

I saw your version of HYDRA launchers on AH1Z

Sorry for my English sad_o.gif

theres an AH1G with the hydra rocket pods that BIS, and VIT used. now considering that the W model is more improved, with twin engines giving it more power, the ability to carry more weight.. i would take a good guess and say that the W is able to support 2x 19-round rocket pods  wink_o.gif

The Nam-Era AH-1 has the 19 tube launcher on the outside pylon.

I think the idea was that the inside pylon is to small to support this launcher (because of space not weight).

However the inside pylon has enough room for the large laucher.

I don't have any links for pics but you can trust me, AH-1s were flown with configurations from 14 to 96 Hydras (4 Launchers).

Great helicopter pack!

Are you planning to include the new AH-1Z?

Check it out @

http://www.army-technology.com/projects/supcobra/

It has 4 blades instead of 2 which means greater speed, rate of climb and increased payload especially with new engines. The upgrade will also add a laser rangefinder/designator. In addition to carrying TOWs and hellfires it is being qualified to carry the AGM-65 Maverick ASM and add chaff and flare counter measures.

The UH-1N is being upgraded to UH-1Y as well in the upgrade program since they have similar systems.
