example with a generic description.lua, adding the custom args, grey pylons and multicam infantry:

livery = {
	{"civ_uh1_main_dam", 0, "uh1", false};
	{"civ_uh1_tail_dam", 0, "uh1_tail", false};	
	{"civ_uh1_main", 0, "uh1", false};
	{"civ_uh1_tail", 0, "uh1_tail", false};
	
	{"uh1_main_dam", 0, "uh1", false};
	{"uh1_tail_dam", 0, "uh1_tail", false};
	{"uh1_main", 0, "uh1", false};
	{"uh1_tail", 0, "uh1_tail", false};
	{"uh1_cov", 0, "uh1_cover", false};
	
  --entries for the UH-1H Attachments Mod below:
  
  {"m134_pylons", DIFFUSE, "m134_pylons_grey_diff", true}; -- miniguns pylons

  {"rocket_pylons", DIFFUSE, "rocket_pylons_grey_diff", true}; -- rockets pylons

  {"Material.005", DIFFUSE,	"pylons_grey", true}; -- M60 pylons
  {"Material.004", DIFFUSE,	"pylons_grey", true}; -- M60 pylons
  
  {"Topmat.001", DIFFUSE, "us_modern_top_multicam_diff", true};
  {"Topmat.002", DIFFUSE, "us_modern_top_multicam_diff", true};
  {"Topmat.003", DIFFUSE, "us_modern_top_multicam_diff", true};
  {"Topmat.004", DIFFUSE, "us_modern_top_multicam_diff", true};

  {"Bottommat.002", DIFFUSE, "us_modern_bottom_multicam_diff", true};
  {"Bottommat.003", DIFFUSE, "us_modern_bottom_multicam_diff", true};
  {"Bottommat.004", DIFFUSE, "us_modern_bottom_multicam_diff", true};
  
	
}

custom_args =
 {
    [43] = 1.0, -- Left Cargo Door: 0 = Closed / 1 = Open
    [44] = 1.0, -- Right Cargo Door: 0 = Closed / 1 = Open 
    [1000] = 1.0, -- Default Pylons: 0 = On / 1 = Off
  }

Where do I find this description.lua file?

Thank you Morpheus, the problem is that nothing appears in my ME. I install using the OVGME.

I don't know if I forgot something...

It looks like you're missing UH-1H.lua. You have to place the "UH-1H.lua" in "C:\Users\%username%\Saved Games\DCS\MissionEditor\UnitPayloads" (Make a backup of the original file, it contains all your custom payloads for the UH-1H).

description.lua can be found in each livery folder.

Usermade liveries should be in: C:\Users\%username%\Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\uh-1h

Default liveries are in C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\Liveries\uh-1h

Thanks Eight Ball, it seems that the problem was the uh-1h.lua. Now it works perfectly.

Thank you very much.

I followed the instructions in the first post to install but I cant see the troops in back. There is a selection for them in the ME but they dont show up in game.

Any clue as to what I am doing wrong?

 

Edit, after relocating some files everything good. Awesome mod

Hi there! Awesome mod! Quick bit of help. I am no longer able to find Upuaut's liveries, looks like the links that Eight Ball provided are removed. I definitely want to get the FBI skin to go with the FBI loadout. Can anyone send me a pointer to the liveries?

EDIT: found them here: https://www.myqnapcloud.com/share/7397ji107p84o29sw9yx29yz_9d4df91mmop429r4qw130x04376683gk#/home/DCS_mod/DCS/DCS_Skins/uh-1h

Which files did you end up moving?  I'm having the same issue.

I'd like to make some gear for a SAR/Medevac version tho.

Love your work, @Eight Ball.  Thank you for all you do for this community.  Searching on "SAR" brought me here.  Did you ever get a chance to create this?

Hi guys, I just installed this great mod with the additional attachments, the only things missing are the Powerline Workers textures.

Are they linked to some specific skins? Where can I find them?

Many thanks

Have you Upuaut mod for Powerline Worker ?

Yes I have, I downloaded it from the link in post 1.

I see the 3d powerline worker model but it's without textures

[pabletesoy]

Hello, first of all congratulations for this great work, clearly for quality it should be integrated into the game. What I would like to know is if it works interactively in the rescue of troops, that is, if I take the Huey empty and rescue troops, do they appear inside the helicopter? Thanks!

Don't think, it's just a payload so ...

Awesome mod just picked up huey trial and it's hella fun, I'm wondering is there a way to change the pilot helmet actual model, just simply would be awesome to put visor down )

Seems would need to import the cockpit edm, which as I believe is not possible.

For now messing with textures and liveries, face camo is a compromise I guess.

Its probably a noob question but certain liveries show the pylons with the default 'can't find texture' file, but only certain ones.

 

Awesome mod

Helmet is part of 3D model so......... no hope 

[shinobi61]

yeah it sucks really look better with visors

It seems there is a probem in MP with this mod.

I see myself correctly with the soldiers loaded on the back but i see other clients with the FBI agent on the side, and displaced from his original position in the helicopter. We checked that everyone has the soldiers option loaded but only each one sees the correct load for themselves, and every client apart shows the FBi agent instead.

First pic is myself. Second pic is other team mates on MP with the same load as me, but i see the FBI shooter.

@Esac_mirmidon
If you are running a server you have to install this mod on the server too. All clients need the same UH-1H.lua in \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\MissionEditor\UnitPayloads.

Attached our .lua. Be aware Upuauts attachments entries are also included and working on server/client side.

 

UH-1H.lua

[Esac_mirmidon]

You mean a dedicated server?

Because this is happening while hosting directly through my computer. No dedicated server.

@Esac_mirmidon

Never answer in hurry... my fault

The most important part you have to set the loadout in the Mission Editor first. You can´t change the loadout in a running mission!
Should also work on a local hosted game.

[Esac_mirmidon]

Thanks for your kind replies, Neo, but thats what we are doing.

All Hueys are loaded previously on the misión editor with the same four modern soldiers.

Each client sees themselves the correct soldiers load, but when looking to other team mates, they see the FBI agent.

Thats the issue we are having right now.

[Neo47]

Oh ok, now it's getting hard...

Do you have the CPL MH60 and 60L mod active? I can remember that additional heli mods caused problems.

Do you all also use the UH-1H.lua?

Try starting a dedicated server locally. Should actually work without any problems.

[Esac_mirmidon]

Yes, i have both CPL Seahawk and 60L Blackhawk, and we are using the .lua. We experience some weird interaction with the CPL mod, that shows some parts of the seahawk around the hueys bottom.

I will try disabling the 60´s mods to see any change. Thanks for your kind replies.

Just checked the link and it seems to work now.

[TEMPEST.114]

@upuaut Do you have any idea why this mod might be crashing 2.8 open beta? My clients and I are playing and we're getting CTD's on entering the HUEY, but usually on the respawn not first entry. 

We all have this mod enabled.
