HitmanFF 6 Posted October 6, 2011 For Take On Helicopters, a 4 vs 4 TDM map with two teams (OPFOR vs BLUFOR). You have to land on a specific spot to change the flag's color and meanwhile prevent the other team from taking it. You get twin M134 miniguns to shoot down the enemy helicopters. One team gets the white light helis, the other teams gets the black ones. You'll get an explanation how the scoring system works in the mission notes. The actual area you'll need to land at to capture the area (trees and buildings around, so be careful): For orientation the flag is in an area with three large masts, and the flag is also marked on the map: Download link Have fun :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

celery 8 Posted October 6, 2011 Isn't this more C&H than TDM? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HitmanFF 6 Posted October 6, 2011 You have an option to set it to TDM, so then only kills count. Default is 1 flag C&H though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpinghubert 49 Posted October 6, 2011 (edited) when you make it for seattle city, some flags above skyscrapers, some down to the ground, a dream would come true for me! edit: i tried to get it to work. No luck. put the folder in documents/take on helicopter and tried it in mainfolder, then in a new mpmissions folder and so on...

MD500Enthusiast 10 Posted October 7, 2011 so i tried hosting the map, but it seems i'm the only one able to get into a chopper. furthermore nobody can ride in my chopper and i also can't get out of the chopper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HitmanFF 6 Posted October 7, 2011 The idea is that you (re)spawn flying in a helicopter, without the option to get out (since walking in and out of the capture area would defeat the map's idea of needing to have flying skills to actually capture the area). Did you host the map or run it on a dedicated server? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A short hint would be nice i tried it in -documents/take on helicopters/mpmissions -documents/take on helicopters other profiles/nickname/mpmissions -take on helicopters/addons -take on helicopters -take on helicopters/mpmissions no luck Edited October 7, 2011 by JumpingHubert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The one in your documents folder is mainly for your own missions and tend to be loose files within the your mission named folder and not a PBO version.

HitmanFF 6 Posted October 7, 2011 There are several problems with home made missions. One is that the MPMissions folder isn't read properly (ticket in CIT here, work around described here), and there seems to be an issue with functions not always working as expected (I've experienced it late last night when I tried this map on a dedicated server, and there's another report here). I've made a very basic map before which did work as expected (intro running for all players), and I haven't had time yet to determine what preconditions are to make it work. Won't be able to test things until mid next week... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpinghubert 49 Posted October 7, 2011 thanks for all reply and making a ticket. Can´t wait to test the gatlin in mp :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpinghubert 49 Posted October 9, 2011 I tried something: unpacked the pbo with pbo-view and put the folder named tdm_08_flyby.United_States_H into documents/Take on Helicopters other profils/own name/mpmissions Now i am able to host your small nice mpmission. Do i have permission to host? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HitmanFF 6 Posted October 9, 2011 Do i have permission to host?You most definitely do. The whole purpose is to host it and reuse whatever you find useful in the mission ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpinghubert 49 Posted October 9, 2011 thanks :) I replaced the flag/starting positions a little bit between the skyscrapers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
