dr_eyeball 16 Posted June 21, 2009 I just quickly tried getting the AH-64 running in Arma 2. Within 15 minutes of tweaking, I got it flying in the editor just fine (with some visual material and weapon model issues). I haven't tried other vehicles yet. Some of the changes that will be required will relate to: changing inheritance (units), missing new properties (faces, scope, etc), removing arma1 data references (eg: images), changing model material types (old style material 50), fixing weapon loadouts. The AA loadouts should be easier now. The rpt file pretty much reveals all issues now. The UI scripting parts are already ported to a working state, but will require some further changes for the more complex parts (FLIR, cameras, etc). Arma 2 solves most of the issues relating to addon compatibility with regard to shared UI layer usage and UI event handling. Another idea is to separate the MFD, HMD components into a separate addon, to make it optional and make updates easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vengeance1 50 Posted June 23, 2009 I just quickly tried getting the AH-64 running in Arma 2. Within 15 minutes of tweaking, I got it flying in the editor just fine (with some visual material and weapon model issues). I haven't tried other vehicles yet. This is very exciting news, it is no doubt complicated and time consuming and we very much appreciate the effort. ARMA 2 really lacks the vehicle selection we had in ARMA 1, this would be huge for ARMA 2. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

p75 10 Posted July 18, 2009 (edited) Hey Guys, Where shall I start? First of all you have my praise for best Arma addon out there. What a great accomplishment. The way you guys managed to remake the Apache AH-64 and its systems is really impressive. My absolute compliments. I have a few questions, though: - Please confirm that this will come to Arma 2. If you need any help, I have alot of free time to help as much as I can. - I have a Xbox 360 controller with two sticks. If I want my left stick for flying and my right stick for the DTV. How do I set this up in the control settings? - What are the weapon/class names of the Hellfire missles? Secondly, I recommend this add on to everyone. This is the BEST Attack Helicopter Addon bar None!!! This comes highly recommended. 1 small comment is that I didn't find out about this addon because of its name. I would suggest a seperate addon for the Apache AH-64 for Arma 2. Jesus, I'm very, very impressed and hope that I can contribute to this quality piece of work!!! One more Question: I want my pilot to autohover when I'm gunner and not engage from a distance and command him to certain spots, how do I do that?

manzilla 1 Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) Hey Guys,- Please confirm that this will come to Arma 2. If you need any help, I have alot of free time to help as much as I can. Grtz Check the prior pages. They've already confirmed this a few times. Aplion also popped up in an A2 thread yesterday confirming it again. Always good to hear again though cause you're damn right, the HWM stuff is bad ass. Among my very favorites indeed. What are the weapon/class names of the Hellfire missles? HWM_HellfireLauncher HWM_16Rnd_Hellfire HWM_8Rnd_Hellfire Make sure to DL and check the last pages of the manual, in case you didn't DL the whole Mod. Not sure if it shows up in separate packs Here's a DL link: http://ofp.gamepark.cz/_hosted/mmstudios/downloads.php?cat_id=2 (Current manual is the second to last thing on this list.)

p75 10 Posted July 30, 2009 Guys, is there a thread (can't find it) or page anywhere which shows how to use the targeting/weapon system. It would be really nice to have some video (best in my view) explaining how it all works. The documentation explains what it is, but not so much how to use it in combat. A video example would benefit the mod tremendousely. Grtz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

reconteam 19 Posted June 7, 2010 (edited) How would I go about changing the M230 chain gun to use the ACE tracers rather than BI's laser lines? Also anyway to for me to get your fine AH-64A to use the laser guided system used by other helicopters in ACE mod? Edited June 7, 2010 by ReconTeam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
