What codecs are needed to play the files?

[Colossus 2]

What codecs are needed to play the files?

Use Windows Media Player

EDIT: Amazing! Looks to work very smoothly.

@celoush: I am aware of that, but he can use WMP.

Windows Media Video 9

@colossus: It´s player. Not codec.

WinAmp also plays it just fine.

Btw. Nice videos.

Makes me feel good, although I am more of an infantry kinda guy.

Ahh i have to "Save As" to get it to work else it was trying to open nothing

Wicked stuff i might actually have to buy a joystick

[CG Man 0]

So it's now a VTOL aircraft that attacks nothing?

Well done! And Look at the HUD! Can't wait to see all that's implemented. Thanks BIS!

Links seem to time out, anyone got a mirror? I mean file mirror not a shaving mirror or anything :P

Nice, but is that minimap going to be for aircraft only, I really hope so....

BF2'ish minimap =

Maruk your my Hero

[Dallas 9]

And a nice HUD too.

Minimap is GPS - mentioned in the list of changes in 1.05. Military vehicles have it and also special force soldiers.

I like that GPS! Great addition. But will you be able to zoom in and out in the GPS?

[TiGGa 0]

GPS has nothing to do with BF. I have one in my PDA so I can expect the soldiers to have one too. :P ^^

[feersum.endjinn 6]

Looks good!

What aircraft have now HUD, is it Harrier exclusive or did AH-1 and Sukhoi get them too?

Zooming is automatic and it depends on vehicle/solider speed.

Nice - just like GTA1 and GTA2

I love the VTOL indeed... And OMG, there's a HUD - I don't recall seeing it, is this new?!

[TheVoodoo 0]

The HUD is a great addition! Hope to see it in any flightvehicle which is supposed to has one.

Outstanding Maruk, do you have a vertical take off video for us?

Semper Fi!

[kavoven 4]

This looks really good, well done, BIS

Nice feature, but weird that you still have a chopper icon and auto-hover name, since it doesn't really hover and isn't a chopper.

I mean, when you use the addaction command you can give whatever name you want to your action, why not call it STOL or Short Take-Off ?  You can set new icons too, am I wrong ?

Seems to me like a first step to feed the hungry community, but a real Vertical Take-off would be even better (for future V22 Ospreys for instance).

Tomorrow will be a long day...

Looks good.

But, can you hover and make a 360° turn?
