Gloom Demon Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 How do I load unload troops using Uh-1H? Specifically - I want to figure out how to use the Huey to quickly disperse man portable SAM units on the map to deny enemy use of air assets on endangered routes.

thrustvector Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 you would need to use the descent menu, comms then look down for descent if near troops/embark if there not on yet, its very buggy in the mi8/not working, seems ok in the huey on missions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloom Demon Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 Thank's for the answer thrustvector :-) I have created a mission with my Huey sitting on the ramp and placed one infantry unit and one manpads unit right next to it. During the mission I used the communications menu and there was something called AA Descent, i think. However - none of the units where there - this entry was empty. Even if I opened the doors of the UH-1H I couldn't issue the command for them to get in - is there anything I am missing here?

thrustvector Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 that's the right menu option, there was a thread a while back about you needing to do something in mission editor to get them to work, the mi8 loading/unloading is obviously not working on the huey, strange as there's a mission in the download user files called huey playground and I'm sure they worked in that....haven't tried latest version though, if I get a chance ill try later, hopefully someone else can chime in here ? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if I opened the doors of the UH-1H I couldn't issue the command for them to get in - is there anything I am missing here? There were some issues with the Huey and Mi-8 AI choppers picking up troops, and I think also with human controlled Huey and Mi-8 choppers with commanding of loading and unloading of troops. I would retry with the new OB patch that will be out on 16-01-2019 or later. I have attached the missions I made for testing the issue so you can see how they should be setup, watch the AI and then go into editor and change the HUEY and then the MI-8 Helos (Skill = PLAYER) and refly and see if works as advertized with the radio menus. You need embark and disembark advanced waypoint commands for the Infantry units and the helos.
