DaSquade 0 Posted September 13, 2007 @klamacz: I posted some suggestion (optimize/fix) regarding your model in the 'stuff you are making' topic. Afaik, it isn't allowed to cross post and i'm to lazy to add it here too. The reason why i posted it overthere was it might help others aswell to understand some flaws (if they are ). Again, just some friendly meant suggestions... Keep it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IFlyAHeliChopter 0 Posted September 16, 2007 Well, my every day for the last 15 months has been Kiowas and Sniper Rifles, I can say that I am THE MOST stoked person on this forum (and probably person playing Arm:A too! Afterall, I offered cash to someone who would make this damn bird like 4 months ago! Anyways, Im damn proud to see your taking your time and hitting all the small details! Nothing irks me more than seeing unrealistic looking birds put into games! UGH! Especially when the game developers do it! Come on, its sad when Player Modelers put more work and research into their projects than game makers! ANYHOW Keep up the awesome work, if you need any specific pictures/shots of the Kiowa just let me know, id be MORE than happy to contribute to making this mod look and perform properly! Infact, Im going to be back in the United States in about 15 days, if you need a beta tester at all , PLEASe give me a PM , I would love to fly this baby and help tune it for the ArmA community Mac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xnodunitx 0 Posted September 16, 2007 Well the thing is the small details take polies that everyone is afraid of, though this engine has more then shown it can handle trillions of polies with little problem so I think we should stop fretting over such a thing.

miles teg 1 Posted May 1, 2008 That and the OFP AH-1 Cobra would be nice to see in ArmA until someone makes custom versions. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klamacz 448 Posted May 2, 2008 I'm proud to inform you that: - my Kiowa found good place in one of the Arma MODs, the one, which should be called "ultimate" - it looks like there is more than 1 man working on it at the moment, including the most skilled addonmakers in community So, after months of laziness it has a chance to being completed. Thank you all for kind words and watching this place. Especially thanks goes for people who sended me info, bug-reports and materials. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MEDICUS 0 Posted May 3, 2008 Nice to hear that this baby is in good hands. Any idea if there will be a standalone version of it? MfG, Medicus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miles teg 1 Posted May 5, 2008 Quote[/b] ]Any idea if there will be a standalone version of it? Actually no plans for that. That's both good and bad. Good if the mod actually ever releases a pack....bad if it dies like so many others did in OFP without ever releasing much (despite loads of awesome screenshots). What usually happens however is that we end up waiting for a year or two before we every fly this bird. yay! Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's real, it's on the way, and it's not terribly far off. You'll see the Kiowa in it, no worries. The sky is not falling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
