EricJ Helicopter Pack

 

RC137
- Fixed the AH-96 Pilot Camera, now works as intended
- Added another helicopter, this time the MH-60A (Insertion), the precursor to the L and M versions of the SOAR MH-60s. It seats 12 soldiers, and has a crew of four. Other than that it just is an earlier version of the MH-60s.
- MH-60M DAPs have full datalink, to include the MH-60S (2-pylon)
- UH-60s now have various datalink suites, some don't and some do, as well as the SOAR birds, which only the MH-60M has a full datalink suite

After trying to fix an issue with the attachments, I had to accept the fact that the mod works with CBA quite well. The only two mods that need CBA so far is the EricJ Weapons Pack (for a script for the AT4), and the EricJ Helicopter Pack. I don't know what the issue is but I know the config is right, but it seems that the units I have for the EricJ Helicopter Pack only works with CBA. I don't know why the default CowsSlot isn't working, but I noticed this a day or two ago, and figured that if I have CBA running, it works as intended. Kinda shows how a mod makes things better, and most milsims ahve it anyway, as well, you can't work without it seems. Anyway this will affect the missions too, as somehow CBA imprints on a mission, even though I don't put any stuff from CBA down, and it's kinda annoying that I have to make sure that CBA isn't running so others who don't have it, get a loading error. More than likely I'll have to do that with any mission I make or port, whatever. Anyway it's not a very big mod, so it'll barely register, only that you need that mod to run the two mods that I mentioned.

EricJ Helicopter Pack

 

RC138
- Improved the view angles for the AH/MH-6/15s
- Re-adjusted the weights of the AH/MH-6/15s
- Tweaked MH-15M flight model
- Added two new unarmed Prowler variants for Task Force 160, a Prowler (Refuel) and a Prowler (Ammo) for FARP duties.
- The Ammo, Repair, and Fuel Prowlers have custom skins, and need to be manually applied to the vehicle to discern which vehicle is which (Edit Vehicle Appearance menu).
- Now requires CBA_A3 to make sure the custom weapons and M4A4 work properly with the game.
- Fixed the ANVIS-9 NVGs, looks as intended.
- Added a TF 160 SOAR Medic for Task Force 160.
- Rattler and Hellfire should appear when selected, and not display "Scalpel"

Not looking like much on the horizon for now. I have a couple fixes for the EricJ Helicopter Pack that I'll push out... Sunday at the earliest. They're not major and shouldn't affect any ops. Anyway the Kiowa seems to be in good shape right now, as no complaints and I haven't looked at it that much. I am planning on some 6.5mm work for the MX, as I may do a conversion for the Creedmore cartridge. I know some people don't like the MX, and I'm trying to figure out what cartridge that SOCOM is going to use for the MRGG-A. I'm still pushing the Barrett M468 to be finished, it's configged and ready to go, just need the model done and I'll be happy to get it out. The MX conversion will just be a bullet/magazine change, not so much any heavy mods since I of course don't have the source models to incorporate a non-caseless setup. Overall, I may incorporate that into the EricJ Helicopter Pack since I'm leaning toward the MX anyway since that's the only 6.5mm weapon that is vanilla and therefore I don't have to worry about creating another gun for the pack for the SOAR pilots and TF562, kinda was lazy, and the MX is decent, but not that powerful. Spartan0536 mentioned he wasn't doing 6.5mm since it had poor performance, but SOCOM thinks it's the new bullet to solve the issues. I may do an M110A3 but i will have to actually work for once, and do the new stock that it has. Maybe or maybe not, depends on how I feel at the moment. Other than that no big things planned, waiting for ADuke to send me the SA-2 whenever that will be, sometime in the future and that pretty much is it for now.

RC15
- Applied more tweaks to the FM, while you can still "flip" it, it has more resistance when nosing up to slow down.

Just got a request to tone down the update frequency from somebody due to server admins updating the mod on servers. Yeah I'm a busy person, but I can adjust. So after thinking about it I can upload an update on Wednesday, which can give milsims some time to update the mod and is (I really don't know) a relatively safe day to upload a mod update. This will go for the EricJ Helicopter Pack right now and other mods may be uploaded the same day given any requests as well, so there is some time to update the mod on servers and so on. If you have any problem with that or want to restrict it to one day, let me know and I'll go from there.

Okay, right now I'm at a good point where I can try and do things again. I looked into the 6.5mm Creedmoor stuff, and not finding much. A lot of this is hush-hush I guess, so finding info (unless somebody else has an idea) on the MRGG-A (which if I remember correctly, is the assault rifle version) Since I don't have pertinent info on that program (not much with Google) I'm not going to do a Creedmoor version of the MX. I stick with the MX since it's a stock weapon, and the configging isn't too hard, just finding info is on the program, is. Anyway I'm thinking of doing a specific day for some mods, Wednesday is set for the EricJ Helicopter Pack, and may do the Weapons Pack, but I don't update (the MX conversion will be in the next update once I get it finalized) that much since I'm not big into weapons. The Helicopter Pack seems to be in a good place so that's good and so on. Also I appreciate those who bring up issues for the mods, and like fixing and improving them as much as possible.
