BELL AH-1 COBRA OVER ... PACKAGE Ver 1.0

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

 

This is a third party add on of the AH-1G Cobra using models and cockpits created by me.

The original flight model is standard as on many free to download helicopters.

I have just modified it a bit.

 

It is designed for and works in the SF1 and SF2 series.

However this pack is build on SF1 folder tree.

For SF2 You have to separete Decals folders.

There is a plenty of tutorials how to convert to SF2 series.

For now temporary i dont have posibility to convert and work on SF2 sim. Temporary.

Sorry for that.

Instalation:

Copy folders into specific folders in your game.

Add Nations.ini line (below) if you dont have US Army Aviation yet.

 

I missed one thing. Pilots.

Use favorite pilots of your choice.

 

 

This addon works only with my WeaponPACK. All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this weapon pack.

In Spanish AH-1G Z-14 model folder there is seperate folder with additional weapons made for Spanish model. It should be instaled same way as other weapons.

WeaponPACK can be downloaded here:

http://combatace.com/files/file/15215-ah-1g-weaponpack/

 

 

Standard commands for activating Cobra features:

 

AIRBRAKES - sun filter/shader on off - just for fun no airbrakes so empty animation slot for use.

 

ARRESTING HOOK - jump from pilot station to gunner station.

 

LANDING GEAR - belly light deploy/retract at any speed in late models

- nose lights activate/deactivate in early model. Lights must on.

 

A2A mode - gunner station guncross for turret.

 

A2Ground mode - pilot M73 cross.

 

ANIMATION 7 - turret doors

 

ANIMATION 8 - ammo bay dooors

 

ANIMATION 9 - gunner door (ext and cockpit view)

 

ANIMATION 10 - pilot door (ext and cockpit view)

 

 

For take off: Around 75% of throttle vector (small needle on RPM clock in cockpit should be

 

like 65degree up) - (default ctrl + ) and then increase power to 70-85% (or more for quick

 

lift) and pull controll stick little and snake will take off. Then reduce throttle vector

 

as needed and reduce power to 69%. It should fly around 110kts now. 69% is good cruising

 

speed. Use vector throttle to control speed.

 

When on the ground you can see rotating blades for pitch and roll. Just additional and

 

unnecesary thing (not visible so much when flying) but it is possible so it is there. Not

 

working like i want but better then nothing.

 

There are two different pylons on inboard stations one for rocketpods one for gunpods. Just

 

to have a proper angle of fire with GP. It is not proper for real model but in my opinion

 

best what can be done for SF engine. Rocket pods are ok with correct angle on inboard stations.

 

 

I made all Mk40 FFAR rockets with different look of warhead. Two versions low poly with

 

colors in max and hi-detail with skins. But i just noticed that i did not pack hi-detailed

versions. I will upload it little later in weapon pack update.

I have redone all weapons - launchers M159,157,158,M200, and some navy LAUs. Gunpods M18

and navy SUU-11. XM118 smoke dispenser and also zuni LAU for future.

Guns are loaded as weaponstations so player got options.
