Hitori kyo 0 Posted April 11, 2007 hello i noticed the shilka in arma only fires as one gun with one tracer, i was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible (when the tools are released) to have 2 weapons firing at the same time, or to have multiple tracers to fake having multiple weapons firing at the same time? (for example a quad barrel AA gun) thankyou in advance - Hitori kyo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Freshman 0 Posted April 11, 2007 Afaik it's not possible. Same Problem with the AH6 Littlebird. It does actually have 2 M134 at the EFAMS but only the left one is able to shoot. To me it's very annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackass888 0 Posted April 11, 2007 the 2-3 years old BAS littlebird had 2 working m134-s in OFP. RHS hind had dualweapons in OFP and also has it in arma. so is it just impossible for tanks? would be very nice to have working dual/quad/... weapons ,especially official ones.

Serclaes 0 Posted April 11, 2007 The BAS littlebirds didn't fire from both guns. There was only a muzzle. I guess it is the same for the Hind. AFAIK it was intended that the littlebird could shoot simultaneously from both guns, but it may be bugged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Opticalsnare 12 Posted April 11, 2007 You could cheat and have them as rockets but make them fire bullets insted of rockets as the ammo. < thats what ive done to the RHS Hind with the gunpods which now fire 30mm. Il see if i can get them working on the shelka and littlebird, but its alot of fiddling about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-ZG-BUZZARD 0 Posted April 11, 2007 Having faith in BIS I hope that sooner or later there will exist vehicles with multiple independent weapons... What I'd also like very much is dual-wield of weapons as a unit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hitori kyo 0 Posted April 12, 2007 Thanks for the prompt replies guys. @ Opticalsnare - Thats a fine idea, please let me know how it goes with the little bird and the shilka. - Hitori Kyo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[aps]gnat 28 Posted April 12, 2007 Think I saw someone post that they had accidently created a dual barrel weapon on a vehicle (chopper I think) by linking 2 separate turrets ...... so I'm think it is possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-ZG-BUZZARD 0 Posted April 13, 2007 Erm.... Hmmmm... (WATCH THIS ON OFP.INFO) Wasn't more than one guns also supposed to be possible in ArmA? I remember that supposedly there was a Blackhawk with two door miniguns, one on each side... But since I don't have the game yet, I dunno... Also, BW-Mod are planning on having the Fuchs 1 Tpz with multiple guns... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought Suma, or some other Dev, said that there would be no drivers that would be able to use weapons, in ArmA? Don't remember where I read it... Which would mean that something like the Apocalypse Tank won't be the same if it comes to ArmA... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hitori kyo 0 Posted April 14, 2007 sure would, id say many mods and the original arma would benefit greatly from this feature. - Hitori kyo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
