Another little mission with the OH-6A blowing stuff up

Wow those look fantastic!!! That shark looks big! Can't wait! Shame about the AH-6 but what can we do I think you mentioned at some point the VAP might be getting updated too?

Yeah my jaw dropped when I saw this. Is this a tease to tell us that something might be moving on the AH-6 (and Blackhawk) project? Or a flex to show us what we can't have? Love the video btw. Black Hawk down vibes are very strong.

Great, finally! I noticed in the promotional videos that the aircraft does not have any wing flex under G, unlike the current FC3 version. Is this something which is coming later? And also, will the vapour effects around the leading edges and the fuselage be reworked at all compared to the FC3 version? Thanks!

It's definitely not a mouse job - just as your video demonstrates the movement is relatively jerky. Wags clearly uses something else. If you use slow rate for keyboard it still slews about 10 times faster than what it needed for a smooth, slow cinematic shot. And with the mouse it's just a none starter. You can't have a perfectly smooth angular rotation with the mouse. Appreciate your efforts but the result is definitely not the same. Yeah with regards to the AI and graphical features very true. It's just strange that the camera views are unique as well. Though Wags hasn't actually used that slow rotating shot for a very long time now in his videos.

Just figured it out now. Just needed to make sure the barge is a ship, not a static object! Thank you

He isn't. Look at the beginning of this video:

Thank you for the suggestion but this is not what I was looking for. That's just the same as the F4 view which allows you to freely move around an object. As you can tell from the video above, the slow panning/ rotational shot that keeps the aircraft centered is completely different. Another question I have is whether it's possible to have a super slow translational movement of the camera with the mouse wheel in free view mode - atm one scroll movement of the mouse wheel up or down results in a translational movement of the camera forward or backwards but at a much higher rate than I would ideally like for a cinematic close-up shot, and I cannot find any way of reducing these mouse wheel increments to have a slower translational movement

Hallelujah!!! Thank you! That fixed it all! and here I was tearing my hair out!!

Hi folks, It all started after I deleted the "fxo" and "metashaders2" folders which I still do once in a while and this has never caused me any issues but now I have some ridiculous problems. First thing I've noticed is when going to the WW2 Marianas Map and trying to select a helicopter I get an error message saying "There are no units available for this criteria. You Are Using Historical Mode". So I changed the mission date to 2020 instead of 1944 but then I still get strange things happening like a huge portion of units being unavailable. For example I can select a helicopter but lots of the helicopters which I have are missing from the list in the mission editor. If I however load up an old mission - the units do load correctly, even if they are not shown in the unit drop down menu. Same story with everything else like ships - it's like they are missing but they do exist if you load up an old mission. I repaired DCS - no effect. Removed all mods - no effect. Clean up - no effect. Struggling for ideas here... I've attached the Export.lua and the dcs.log files. Any help appreciated! Thank you! Export.lua dcs.log

Yep tested already, very cool. Using for the next mission/ video! Thanks! Could someone tell me if it's possible to have a hot or cold start of the OH-6 on the float barge (pontoon) that comes in the VAP somehow?

Hi all, Looking for a Vietnam era C-130 skin. Can't find anything on the user files. I'm amazed nobody has done something like this yet? If it does exist, I'd really appreciate if you could point me in the right direction. Cheers!

Actually had no idea there was a grenade launcher in that pack. Great idea! I'll try it! Thanks for pointing it out

Oh yeah, doh!! My bad.
