first my mod specs:

 

SF2:E patched to Feb2010

 

NatoFighters4+

 

i'm having some trouble with the UH-1B Gunship. i followed the instructions(i have Gramps UH-1H) but when i go to fly, the game ctd's immediately.

 

what i did:

 

i installed the gunship(placing files in their respective folders,running the Weps,Gun editors)

 

then i placed the LOD files and SHD file(from the UH-1H) into the Gunship folder. i pick my skins and weps, hit fly and it CTD's.

 

any thoughts?

hi viperbat32 don't know if this helps but if you want to try it out in a series 2 sim environment here it is , i believe their are two huey versions out their, one being the uh1h with gunners and the other uh1b with the sliding cabin doors. for the b version use aircraft data file ini from this package http://combatace.com/topic/56744-uh-1h-cockpit-gunner-upgrade/ and place the b version mod/lod in the aircraft folder and go fly . for the h version you will need to dig around the helicopter section of series 1 or avsim or pasko's site for the h version and use this package for the cockpit http://combatace.com/files/file/11048-uh-1b-gunship-upgrade-pack/ .

 

avsim.com http://home.earthlink.net/~pasko_patak/planes.html http://combatace.com/files/category/69-helicopters/

 

basically mix and match the correct mod/lod with the cockpit file and aircraft data file.

Is there a chance to get WEAPONS from this pack working in First Gen. WOV? I mean visible lods. Everything works fine but gunpods (XM9HueyR/L,M158,M134HueyR/L) are not visible in WOV.

This thing is really good conversion. Only thing is the weps. ned to make it carry the m158 or lau-3 rocket pods. i checked data.ini to see if chnages could be made but whne you chg to wp for attachment type. it does nothing. The Euro HOT is no good in a Vietnam setting. Also, it sways left to right or sideways so is hard to keep steady when firing weps. oher than that, she's a a beaut. Maybe better than YAP helo's.

Kulbit80,

 

I loaded the weps into the First Gen WOV.

 

I pulled the .lod entry from the wep data (See below), ran the weapon editor and they show up.

 

Original

[WeaponData274]

TypeName=XM9HueyR

FullName=XM9 40mm GL Huey (right)

ModelName=XM9_HueyR.LOD <================ Original entry

Mass=120.000000

 

Modified

[WeaponData274]

TypeName=XM9HueyR

FullName=XM9 40mm GL Huey (right)

ModelName=XM9_HueyR <================ New entry

Mass=120.000000

KRFRGE,

 

Unfortunately it doesn't work. No visible 3d models. M158 for example: rockets - visible ; rocket pod model - invisible. Maybe it's becouse new next gen. LOD code... But who made these weapons? Could create first gen LODs...

i tried something and it worked for me.after doing as the readme says it didn't work, so i left everything the way i had it when it didn't work ,then i erased the gunship folder from the aircraft folder, then i opened up the zip for the gunship and dragged just the gunship aircraft folder back in and it worked!

yes, but unfortunately it does not work with the realistic FM for UH-1 made by kreelin, the standart one is thje A-109 for malvinas mod which means you do not have a vertical take off.

Silverbolt;

There is second data.ini (A109-A_DATA_II.ini) for Augusta in malvinas mod and that FM has vertical take offs and working fine for me...

Guys, You have to fly in HARD mode to fully enjoy realistic FM. Those FMs are a bit old now...

Maybe Kreelin, could you rework the FM?

Would be great to have an updated FM for the Huey!

Well... I do not Mod anymore due to a lack of time except for Overkill's Cobra and some FMs for friends projects

Unfortunately, building Helos FM is a real nightmare. You need a lot of tial and error works :grin:
