Mi-8 Pack will include scripts similar to BAS ones including ladders, rappeling ropes and weapon selection. This pack is going to be released in two versions: high quality and medium quality. Medium quality model will have less polygons, lower resolution textures and less CPU intensive scripts. On the screenshots you can also see new pilot models made by Laser. This pack is in the final stages of the development and can be expected to be released this summer. p.s. Thanx psykke for translation:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capitaine Haddock 0 Posted June 3, 2005 Amazing work! What can I say... we needed a proper Mi-8 since the original game was released. And this looks absolutely gorgeous, as usual from the OW team. I love the small details, like the extra side-armour for the pilots. Thanks for the hard work. You've got a huge fan of your choppers here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gordy 0 Posted June 3, 2005 Agreed, Too bad my model is still somewhere in the shelf. It'd be nice competition. Anyway, the first screen shows MI-17 if i'm not mistaken. MI-8 has its rear rotor on different side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DPS -CCCP- 0 Posted June 3, 2005 No. In first screen there is Mi-8TV. Left sided rear rotor first mounted on Mi-8MT (you can see him on screenshot, when he fly over smoke:) ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peanut 0 Posted June 3, 2005 I like it a lot I always hoped for an MI-8 by Our Weapons and I'm really glad that you're working on one. How CPU intensive are the High Quality choppers? More than your MI-26 or on the same level? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gedis 0 Posted June 3, 2005 holy s***! finaly some official info and pix about this mi-8 pack. I saw something like this in flashpoint.ru 2-3 months ago, when your mi-26 was just finished finaly... then it was only early beta, now it looks amazing! i even set picture # 5 as a wallpaper... man, things like this, i think will be better than ofp2's! but still, long to wait  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Functionality is what's makes a good helo and that's pain in the ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cpt. FrostBite 0 Posted June 3, 2005 OH MY GOD, THIS IS BEAUTIFULL Your Mi-2 was perfect, but just a bit too small, which prevents it from being my standard EAST transport helicopter. Your Mi-26 isa also perfect, but just a bit too..eh.. huge. It's so huge it's just not really practical in the game to drop of a 12 man team. This Mi-8 will fill the gap between these two and looks awesome. The Mi-8 also has a cockpit which is perefect for the first person view; because of all the glass you can see a lot. The Mi-8 is one of the view choppers I actually fly in first person view. It looks awesome, guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

llauma 0 Posted June 3, 2005 Great job  Btw what are the main differences between a Mi-8 and a Mi-17 ? The name and the engines.. Also the most obvious is that the tail rotor is on the other side Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Messiah 2 Posted June 3, 2005 so what unique features will we expect on this baby, besides those listed? I've come love the OW addons for their lovely features, and small touches (like the flicking on of switches on engine start up) Possibly a winch script?
