The ANZAC project has not stalled.

Well I guess I was just plain wrong about the wings then lol. I've taken close looks at pics with different F/A-18's with folded wings. I've determined that the F/A-18E/F wings fold 90 degrees. The F/A-18C/D wings fold slightly past 90 (I think about 100 degrees perhaps, but not sure). So yeah your Superhornet is right, but if you are releasing the reg hornet, I think they should fold further than that. :)

Woot foldable wings epic. Thanks Meatball! Hey one question, I thought the Superhornets wings could fold past 90 degrees? Or am I wrong? Also nice landing lol. :P

Custom Aircraft Loadout help
SGT M replied to Mage's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
Cool this was helpful, I've changed the loadout on the FDF F-18C and made it AG capable. :) -
Yeah cool thanks meatball, looking forward to that vid. :) ---------- Post added at 01:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:43 PM ---------- Yes that is exactly what I was trying to say. :)

Hey meatball are your F/A-18's capable of doing a full turning circle without moving or barely moving forwards? By that I mean I have seen a couple of youtube vids where a Hornet lands on a carrier, and then does a full 180 degree turn without its rear wheels moving forwards, just its front which turns the nose of the plane around. I've found that the bis planes (except F-35 and Harrier with VTOL engaged) and several modded planes including the recent FDF F-18C have to get to around 10-20 knots before they can turn well. THis causes problems on the Nimitz when trying to navigate the aircraft, especially getting on and off the elevators under the planes own power.

Yeah well the Finnish Air Force (I'm talking the real life Finnish Air Force) never use it as a F/A-18 (hence its in game designation F-18C Air Superiority Fighter). But yeah like your wish for weapons my wish was for foldable wings, but once again the Finnish have no need for them as they don't have carriers. The real FDF F-18's probably do have foldable wings but the FDF mod team didn't bother (for obvious reasons). Oh well, all our wishes will be granted with Meatballs redo of Franzes planes eh!
-
Yeah tested that out this morning. Its pretty well done.

Crap sorry I did try to go through the thread but for some reason my browser cannot load pages one through five, it just freezes IE. No idea why. So thanks for making me aware of this. And also I guessed these would be Franze's models, and hey it's always good to have several skins right? PS I have the same IE problem with youtubes login page, I can watch video's alright but can't even load this sign in or sign up pager.:confused: O well definitely the wrong thread to bring that up lol.

Yeah I know, my point is just knowing that there is yet another F/A-18 in the works makes me extremely happy. I do remember your exact words. Quick question though. Does the F/A-18F planes you are planning on releasing have foldable wings, or maybe a script to do so? I am a big fan of JDog's USS Nimitz (probably due to my love of the Hornet). And I thought to make a genuine looking battlegroup, it would be good to have a few hornets with folded wings out on the deck, and maybe a couple with wings extended ready for deployment (like a qrf). the FDF one which I just tried out doesn't (probably because the Finnish don't need them to be folded anyway). So yeah, just thought I'd ask if they do or if you have plans to make a script or something. Cheers! :)

Goodie Goodie Goodie Goodie Goodie!!!!!!! When PRACS canceled the realease of their F/A-18 I almost died. According to NZDFCRASH his one is coming out soon. But to suddenly discover one that might be coming out in a week! And now FDF has released 1.0 which includes a F-18C air sup version. God its like my Birthday has come a week early!

You speak as if this glorious flying machine is only days away! Is this true or have I been misreading the implications in your posts?

Making a chopper circle around you endlessly
SGT M replied to jkhaaja's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
Brilliant! Thanks for that, much appreciated. Would this solve this threads original problem, instead of all that scripting? Or have I read the original post wrong? Also, any idea how to make vehicles e.g a humvee, not stop every time they hit another waypoint, like travelling down a twisting road obviously requires many waypoints (atleast as far as I know) and they stop for 1-2 seconds every time they hit the next one, help!?

equal damage or effect from damage on east and west tanks
SGT M replied to kotov12345's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - SUGGESTIONS
Regarding Beagles prior post I would certainly like to see a Leopard A7 in arma 2, maybe as part of UN? Wait is there actually a Leopard mod for arma 2 that I haven't found? -

I LOVE YOU FRUITY RUDY!!! -Ray Person, an awesome douchebag if ever there was one. :) ---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ---------- I found that issue with the MOAB thats included in the weapons pack update. However I found that if you download the MOAB seperately (can be found on armaholic) it works fine. Hope that helped. :) -
Making a chopper circle around you endlessly
SGT M replied to jkhaaja's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
Is it at all possible to merge waypoints? By this I mean to create a series of waypoints in the shape of a circle (for example). And then sort of 'combine' the first WP with the last? So the heli (for example) will follow WP's in the circle pattern, then when it gets to the last WP, it travels to the first and repeats the process? This all guesswork ofcourse, but I have been wondering this for awhile. Anyone? -
Not if you're a good pilot, know the LZ, and thus line up the MV-22 properly. But yes the MV-22 is a little under-developed in this game. The MV-22 should, in keeping with basic physics, control yaw by tilting the rotor disks in opposite directions, as with the Chinook, atleast when VTOL is engaged. However I wasn't aware the Osprey was actually capable of tilting its engine pylons past 0 (by that I mean tilting past the completely upright position). Can it actually? Either way I've never liked the US Army favouring the Osprey over the Chinook.

equal damage or effect from damage on east and west tanks
SGT M replied to kotov12345's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - SUGGESTIONS
Quite frankly if you want perfectly balanced tanks, go play BFBC2. Arma 2 was never designed to be even. It was designed to be REALISTIC. The M1A2 Abrams, specifically the TUSK and SEPTUSK variants, are the best tank(s) in the world. It can take hits that no other tank can. Arma 2 has designed it this way. In a one on one fight between a M1A2 TUSK and a T90. The result will always be M1A2 WINS!!! Just leave it at that. -
Export F-18 to ArmA 2 and OA
SGT M replied to -BAC-honzikpen's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : BI TOOLS - TROUBLESHOOTING
The PRACS F/A-18 will not be released to the public following some major issues regarding ownership of the model. It basically 'got' to the creator of the mod and so he is now not releasing it with the rest or Project RACS... Anyway the ANZAC Super Hornet is still being released according to Crash. He gave me an approximate date which I swore I would keep to myself. But it is due soon. Also FDF have one in the works, no idea when thats due. But hopefully soon, then we can have single and twin seater versions. I personally don't give a damn about whats written on the plane's wings. I just want to fly it from Jdog's unbeleivably AWESOME USS Nimitz! -
