Cargo Hook will not connect


Cahoot

Recommended Posts

If you land next to a cargo crate the Mi-24 will not auto-connect to the cargo like the Huey, and Mi-8 does.  As there are no helpers or views to aid in hover attach mode other than Petro, it makes it extremely difficult if not impossible to get hooked up, especially in Multiplayer.  There are videos of it working on youtube when landed next to the cargo so I assume it is bugged.   The manual even states the Hind should not be used in a hover if possible.

Hi, 

welcome to the forum, can you attach a short track replay example, we can take a look. 

Ive not had any other reports of any problems and the last time I tried it was working. 

Are you selecting the cargo from the radio menu?

Yes, I have spend probably 6+ hours trying to get it to connect both ways Hover and landed. Even butting the nose of the Hind to the crate.  I pop the cargo, the smoke appears but the rope will not engage.   I also made a single player mission and tried it on my own client. The multiplayer server host recommended I come here as they confirmed the issue.
