ZoomBoy27 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Any word yet about Helicopters taking off from locations Other than airports? I'm building a few mission to test for helicopters and wondered.

You can create your mission as if it takes off from anywhere though: Select 'lock altitude' at waypoint0 and set speed to 2 (it will show 1) and altitude to 45 (won't go lower). If you set waypoint 2 a few feet away with same speed and altitude setting, it looks like it's hovering very low for some time.

KILSEK Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Hi all and ZoomBoy27. Do you mean like this? http://forums.ubi.com/groupee/forums?a=tpc&s=400102&f=38610606&m=502109745 It edits the MEInit so that all helos can take off from ships. If so, thank Brit_Radar_Dude. He helped with this some time ago. :icon_jook B_R_D. -KILSEK

Thanks for the info, but I was thinking about in the 1.2 Add-on if they would be changing that.

Weta43 Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Would make a lot of sense wouldn't it - in fact it would have made sense as they're helicopters & don't need a runway if they could have landed & taken off from any dry land already... Certainly would be nice & more realistic for mission building. Cheers.
