This is a BIG thing if true, I never knew about this! imagine the possibilities, you get shot down, relay your lat/long to the SAR and wait for the pickup (could be quite tense for the UH-1 pilot having to fly into a hot zone)

Didn't know about this one. Woo! :D

Now if only you can start as a pilot on the ground, walk up to a client aircraft and "jump in."

Must be possible somehow, i see a nice (and useful/realistic) challenge for the UH-1H and MI-8 teams here.:D

This feature can of course only considered being completed when the downed client is able to enter another clients huey as a passenger.

Brought back to an airbase, gets dropped there and enters a new spawned plane to get back into the action.

As a downed pilot it could be interesting to try and avoid player controlled enemy vehicles looking for you, while at the same time trying to get to the extraction point... :)

A Huey supported by a few BS......now that is something I would like to do. I need to get flying and get my BS skills back up to par. Hope this is true and not "jumping the gun" type of thing.

Have you ever checked Folks how can you (as ejected pilot) jump in vehicles/aircrafts now with this patch ?

I mean in previous version we were able to jump in UAZ and other non armed/armoured vehicles, (with easter-egg-mods) but AFAIK ejected pilot and the vehicle what he driven was not visible for other players :(

Would be nice to jump in CA vehicles and into aircrafts too as an ejected pilot and transporting back to base and hop again into a client flyable aircraft by MP mission :thumbup:

...Seems DCSW is getting closer to ARMA :) at least i hope...

Atop the midnight tarmac,

a metal beast awaits.

To be flown below the radar,

to bring the enemy his fate.

 

HAVE A BANDIT DAY !

Tried it with a friend yesterday. Best I could do was to walk into the Huey, with the pilot just magically stepping up onto the floor, head poking through the top. It was funny.

Could you fly away with the downed pilot?

I kept falling off when the helicopter turned. It's just collision models doing their thing, just like standing on the wings of various other models.

I tried to hop into a static UAZ (i put it into mission - was not a builtin scenery object) with an ejected Eagle pilot. I walked next to the car but when i hit the spacebar key then DCSW crashed immediately. :(

This "jump into car" worked earlier in Warthog Betas...

Try to use the spacebar key, that had the get in/get out function earlier which glued the pilot into the vehicle

Guys.

As Grimes said, you just can see the ejected pilot at the position where he touched the ground in MP. But your mates won't see you if you are moving.

Being able to see the downed pilot is already a huge progress from my point of view since I was waiting for this simple feature for years and years. It's a perfect timing for the Huey to be available since this chopper will most likely be used for SAR missions in my squad.

The easter egg still works, but you must place the vehicle as a vehicle, not as a static object. Then the game will not crash when you get in a vehicle. You can then press space bar again to get out, but when you do, the vehicle will respawn as a static object instead of a vehicle, so if you try to get back in a second time it will crash.

 

You should also be able to drive unarmed hummers now too without modification. I checked the lua file and "human_vehicle" has been added to M1025 Hummer.lua. edit: Just checked and the hummer does work with the easter egg by default now.
