Airwolf

I've been doing a lot of crash landings lately with the AFM, and my biggest issue is that a succesfull auto rotation is often ruined by the helicopter flipping over and exploding. Helicopters should not bounce when they hit the ground, or flip over so often. Even if they do flip over they shouldn't just explode. Please make it so the helicopters do not explode when they roll. The pilot should be able to get out with minor injuries.

Hi, I am trying to create a squadxml logo. I designed it in Photoshop and have tried saving as TGA and PNG. Then converted to PAA via TexView2 from the BI Tools 2.5 pack. Have tried with and without alpha channel, but it still shows with a white background in game. Using Photoshop CC 2014. Help? Thank you,

Yeah, it is a transparent image. But when I load it in game, the background is white.

First testing of the new FDM I would say the shakiness is too much. Atleast give the option to turn that off. Helicopters shake, yes. But I don't think its necessary to have that in game, it just seems overly forced onto the flight model.

I've searched for this and don't see anything so hoping someone can help. I am looking for a way to film video in-game other than from the first or third person view. Not the actual recording, but the movement and placement of the camera. I remember in OFP there was an old system where through script commands in the mission editor you could place the camera around, and we had a camera addon that a unit could carry around that had no HUD inside for clear recording, but i'm hoping there is a better option for ARMA 3. I have looked into splendid camera but it seems thats only for still photos. I know this can be done as i've seen videos online from guys like Dyslexi that are doing it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hello, I'm looking for a serious group to join with a decently sized community to play mil-sim on an active basis. I have been a player since OFP, worked on the original Airwolf mod for that game and have been away from the community for some time though I have been keeping up with the various ARMA games since OFP. ARMA 3 has a new level of playability for me but I have been disappointed with the lack of quality servers to play on. I don't want to log into a server and get TK'd or have the mission turned into a giant CF because no one is talking. I am looking for an organized group that values communication. I am a Videographer by profession and can bring these skills to the game for machinima and video editing use. Extensive experience in the world of Combat Flight Simulator from many years ago so my preferred platform is flight. Please contact me for additional details. Thank you, Airwolf (In-Game - Beachhead)

This island is absolutely huge, and i've been exploring it slowly. However so far i havn't been able to find a castle or any other very unique buildings. Can anyone point out some interesting sights on Sahrani?

Are these units available in any addons for use in the editor? Thank you.

I Just got Armed Assault, one odd thing i am experiencing however is that unlike in Operation Flashpoint, i can't seem to holster my weapon, or go into a safe mode of any kind. The soldier always has the gun out, and there is no "put weapon on back" command or holster command of any sort that i can find. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks.

And if bush is a war criminal, how about clinton? You seem so damn liberal you probably love old slick willy, the guy who sent our troops to help a bunch of worthless natives in somalia who would probably have died of disease and hunger anyways. Bush sending troops to help the haitians is also stupid, we should really stop helping worthless 3rd world countries with their problems and help ourselves. Bush is hardly a war criminal, crazy arabs slammed to planes into the world trade centers must i remind you, if you seem to removed from the problems of the world today. Bin Laden and all his supporters and allies need to die. AND! Bush is to lax because, he is doing nothing about the gun control in this country, liberal senators in california, unfortunatly where i live, are destroying our right to bear arms, they just renewed the assault weapons ban so now we are still stuck to hunting rifles and 10 round magazines, i sent an entire essay to our senator on why gun control doesnt work, she hasnt responded yet. And, this crap with keeping saddam in prison and giving him a fair trial? Did he give a fair trial to the people he killed? Did he care? No! he didnt! Why should we give him the privilage of defending himself, they should have shot him when they found him, or executed him once he was transported overseas.

I'm all for bush, i actually would prefer a more conservative republican as president, bush is to lax. Liberal scum arnt taking my guns though, pry them from my cold dead fingers they can. The economy cannot be predicted by anyone, annnlysts are hired every year to predict the economy and they are always wrong, nor bush or kerry can say if i do this then the economy will go well, they can only guess and hope to see what happens.

Incorrect, Redwolf had a single rocket launcher. It was shown when Harlan Jenkins blasted out of the hanger. But due to low production budget was not created to attach onto the helicopter during the fight sequence.

looks like its missing airwolfs adf pod and chain guns, unless you didnt bother to save the model file in the correct format, i dont see how he could alter it.

That is sean bean as he mentioned earlier, he played alec trevelyan in goldeneye, a dude in equilibrium, the evil IRA guy in patriot games, played boromir in lord of the rings, and some other stuff, pretty famous actor. Looks great in game.

I used to remember having a lampost addon that came in multiple colors, you just plugged in this inflame true to make it work. I cant seem to find this anymore, can anyone help me out?

Nuke the middle east.

Gun Control in California, an essay by me for my college english class: A horrible tragedy occurred on January 17th, 1989, when 24 year old Patrick Purdy began shooting into a crowd of schoolchildren playing at recess in Stockton, California. In six minutes he fired 106 bullets, killing five people and wounding many others. His rampage continued for several minutes until Purdy shot himself in the head with a pistol as police officers were arriving on the scene. The reaction from the news and media organizations was tense and misleading. Instead of focusing on the killer, a misguided youth who in his few years had already been arrested thirty times for assault, armed burglary, and illegal possession of weapons – the media concentrated on the weapon. Nearly every media organization reported the weapon used was a “Soviet AK-47 assault rifle†capable of “extremely rapid and concentrated fire.†There was a reaction among the American public, especially in California, for tighter restrictions on “assault rifles.†But Patrick Purdy did not have an assault rifle. He used an “AK-47 lookalike†which merely resembled in appearance a Kalashnikov military weapon and was in fact no different from any non-military semi-automatic hunting rifle. He did not “spray the playground with automatic fire†but fired a mere 106 rounds, in 6 minutes: under 18 bullets per minute. Anyone with a lever-action “cowboy style†rifle could have matched, or surpassed Purdy’s rate of fire. Fully-automatic weapons, such as Purdy was portrayed as using, have been illegal in the United States since 1935. Instead of investigating why all of Purdy’s felony convictions were judged as misdemeanors, thus keeping this long-time criminal on the streets instead of behind bars, the California legislature banned all “lookalike†firearms. Instead of examining the criminal records and looking for more “Patrick Purdy’s†waiting to happen, California made tens of thousands of otherwise law-abiding citizens into felons by making all unregistered semi-automatic rifles illegal. Is this supposed to make us feel safer in school and on the street? Because of his criminal record, Purdy was breaking the law owning a rifle and a pistol. No amount of “assault weapons†registration and restrictions would have kept those weapons out of his hands. Banning assault rifles is not the answer to stop gun related crime. The American people have a right to own firearms and assault rifles. We should have full access to these weapons. New, tighter gun laws and registrations are implemented every day, depriving law-abiding Americans of their constitutionally-protected right to keep and bear arms. Why, then, after all these laws, after all these infringements of rights for the “better good,†after billions of dollars spent on enforcement, does “assault weapons†crime never decrease? It’s time we focus on the criminal and bring him to justice, and not his tools. The true assault weapon, the machine gun, has been banned since 1935. Al Capone and the gangsters of the era could not keep their hands off Thompson sub machine guns and Browning automatic rifles. So the police force had a very tough time enforcing the criminal ways of Capone and his cronies. It was different in the 30s and 40s, weapons of that design could be banned, and it would stay that way quite some time, but the organized crime wave of the modern world, terrorism, and the back market changed things. All contribute to the uselessness of banning semi automatic, fully automatic military rifles, or machine pistols such as the UZI or Tec-9. It is so easy to get an “assault weapon†illegally if you really want to. An AK-47 sells in South Africa for six dollars and they are just as cheap, if not cheaper, in other third world countries. Today, the words “assault weapon†gets a certain reaction from people, and a large majority of Americans favor “more restrictions†on “assault weapon ownership†even though it’s virtually impossible to legally own a true assault weapon today. Most American people think “assault weapons†are bad, despite the Constitution, despite the statistics on assault weapons crime, despite, it would seem, common sense. Because of this, the Brady organization has used secret modifications to their bills such as “semi automatic assault weapons†and “assault pistols†to bring a whole new range of firearms under the “assault weapons†category. For example, “assault weapons†laws cite certain characteristics which make a gun an “assault weapon†such as the 1896 model Mauser pistol, over 100 years old but still banned as an “assault pistol†because the magazine is not in the pistol grip. The last recorded murder with an 1896 Mauser pistol was in 1957, and they were banned in California in 1994, and for what reason? Certainly not to stop crime, they are a number of decades to late for that. http://www.bradycampaign.org/ states “Assault weapons were used: To kill 5 children and wound 29 others in a Stockton, CA schoolyard in 1989. The AK-47 held 75 - that's right, 75 - bullets. To kill 8 people and 6 others at a San Francisco law firm in 1993. Two TEC-9's with 50-round magazines were used in the massacre.†The Tec-9 used was already banned, therefore was an illegally owned weapon. The Brady organization fails to mention this in their statement. And Patrick Purdy should have been behind bars! He was not legally allowed to own firearms after so many criminal convictions! Yet to “prevent tragedies like Purdy from happening again†the look-alike Ak-47 was banned. Even if look-alike guns were banned before the shooting, it wouldn’t have stopped this sick man from committing his wicked act, because he owned the gun illegally to begin with! Incidentally, he fired 106 rounds in 6 minutes. Long before assault weapons were even envisioned British troops with bolt-action rifles were trained, and expected, to fire 100 aimed rounds in 5 minutes. Perhaps it was better that Purdy had a semi-automatic rifle and was firing from the hip in the general direction of his victims if he had a single-shot bolt action and aimed every round, the slaughter might have even been worse! The brady organization also states that “Although it took four years and enormous public support to overcome the National Rifle Association's implacable opposition, the 1994 crime bill specifically banned the future manufacture and importation of semiautomatic assault weapons with no hunting or sporting purpose.†â€The crime bill also banned the future manufacture and import of large-capacity ammunition magazines holding more than 10 bullets.†Wow, ten bullets, that’s an improvement, so now instead of taking away the guns that supposedly kill people, they take away the bullets. Next they will probably be taking away the hand used to pull the trigger. Brett Gibbons writes on this online forum at http://www.mohaa.com “Let us examine the average violent criminal. Many of them come from minority families. Almost all of them are poor. The majority are involved in the illegal drug trade (estimates vary from 30 to 60% of all gun murders involve drugs and gangs). They carry guns, most of them are well-made automatics, not "Saturday Night Specials." The vast, vast majority of the guns they have are acquired illegally, i.e. they bought them illicitly, stole them, brought them across a border, anyhow they are breaking the law possessing them. And they commit murder. Solution: ban the gun used in the crime! There is a hit-and-run and an innocent person dies. Solution: ban the car used in the hit-and-run! A hacker breaks into a government network and steals secret files. Solution: ban the computer! A vandal spray-paints graffiti on a building. Solution: ban spray paint! A very good quote by Mr. Gibbons demonstrates that banning something is not the answer, no one will ever ban the car because it is a means for transportation, people will not ban computers or destroy the internet because they are a means of information and communication, but they will ban guns because, um, well, although used many times moreover for lawful purposes and the defense of ones home, they're occasionally misused by criminals and therefore are evil! So what's left for a lawmaker to do? Try to identify types of guns that are often associated with criminal activity and ban them. How very brilliant! This is like saying "Volvos are in a lot more accidents than other cars. Therefore let's ban Volvos." No on assault rifles people say? Why not no on Volvos? There is more to owning a gun rather than going out and hunting for deer. I do not hunt, and am against sport hunting, the shooting of animals for the fun of it does not appeal to me. Many people ask me then why do I want assault weapons to be legalized? Well its simple, the assault weapon does not have to kill things, guns do not have to kill things. I have never used a gun to kill anything in my life, not a squirrel, a deer, or a bird. I target shoot with my guns. Millions of Americans go shooting practically every weekend at targets and blow things apart, have a fun time, and nobody ever gets hurt. "The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing." - Leader of the Nazi Party, Adolph Hitler In Switzerland, every able bodied male citizen is sent to the army for a year or two of basic training, they are then sent home with a military assault rifle and a hand gun, and surprisingly, the crime in Switzerland is one of the lowest in the world. Let’s speculate for a moment. Imagine yourself living in Switzerland, you are asleep at night, your European semi automatic rifle in the closet, and an intruder barges in, you wake up due to the noise and reach for your gun, proceed out your bedroom door and fire on the intruder, killing or disabling him. Your family’s life has been saved, and a ruthless criminal has been brought to justice. The Brady campaign mentions how assault weapons crime dropped dramatically in 1995, immediately after the 1994 ban. However, they forget to tell you that all crime with all guns dropped in 1995, and while typical crime with and without firearms has dropped since then up until 2002, assault weapons crime has gone up by 6%! All the banning, confiscations, legislation, registration, the higher taxes, the millions of dollars allocated to enforcement, and the media barrage still hasn’t managed lower “assault weapons†crime from the 1994 levels, and as already mentioned, “assault weapons crime†by their own definition has gone up instead. On reflection, www.kc3.com has some good points to make in this list of 40 reasons why guns should be banned.†8. A woman raped and strangled is morally superior to a woman with a smoking gun and a dead rapist at her feet. 24. Guns cause violence, which is why there are so many mass killings at gun shows.†Please reflect on this as well, Soviet leader Nikita Krushchev states that â€We dare not invade America, it would be a battle on every streetcorner, through every poor mans farmhouse, in every residential place, they all have guns.†-- Nikita Khrushchev, 1961 And the Brady organization asks, needs an AK-47 to go duck hunting?†And I ask them, “What part of the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed do you NOT understand?â€

hmm... now all we need is a few moonrakers.

No!!!!!!! the score may be high, but the actual game play is horrible! i cant look in any direction without it lagging!

image size over 100kb! http://www.flightsimdesign.com/352/greyhound.jpg

I hate my computer.... one would think that when you spend so much money OFP wouldnt lag.. but noooooo, i sware i got better graphics with my old geforce 4200... heres my craptastic score system.. 3.0ghz HT pentium 4 1024mb corsair ddr400, supposably duel channel geforce fx 5900 asus p4p400 deluxe motherboard audigy II platinum. if anyone has an idea why my flashpoint lags, especially when i look from side to side, PLEASE TELL ME!

well, i swore i'd never buy another ati card again, so, im going to keep this for now, and just try to make the best of it, there must be a way to make it run right.

Alright, first i'll start with my specs since thats what people always ask. Pentium 4 3.0ghz 800FSB 1024mb Corsair 400mhz duel channel ddr Asus P4P800 deluxe motherboard with latest bios and chipset upgrades BFG Asylum Geforce FX 5900 Audigy II Platinum Alright, now on to my problem, with this system and the money i spent on these parts i really think i should be getting a lag free flashpoint, but im not. I get around a 5600 score in 3dmark03 but flashpoint seems to dissagree. I still get bad fps when turning to the side or looking around, and i still get jumped frames every now and then, i bought all of this so i could play flashpoint at its greatest. My current flashpoint settings: resolution is at 1600x1200 terrain detail is set at high viewdistance is anywhere from 1200 to 1500, get the same lag either one. texture resolutions are set at 1024x768 HL texture and lighting is enabled. if theres any specs i missed, please tell me. Can anyone help me to get my flashpoint to play nice and smoothly? i believe the amount of money i poured into my computer should atleast make flashpoint run with no lag! Thanks.

one thing i noticed, is that is only lags when i turn or when i look from side to side, looking up, down, or going perfectly forward does not cause any lag at all, only when i look, and during that turning motion i get major lag.

DIE HIPPIES DIE!!
