Is the External Cargo option operative?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I wonder if the option External Cargo Hook/Unhook is operative or still in plan for future activation.

 

If I it is, then there must be somewhere a Cargo-mission extra for download!

 

Thanks

It was supposed to be part of 1.2.7 but it didn't get finished in time. But we'll get external cargo for the Huey (and the Hip) eventually.

On develop to a future 1.2.7 patch if aplicable (or delayed to 1.2.8)

Well - I'm really anxious for the next Cargo missions. From my FSX experience with swing load, I can say that with the Huey, it's going to be a real challenge!

Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.

Well that surely goes for FSX standard Helicopters. But did you try the Jetranger 206 from Dodosim? It has also a Cargo Hook/Unhook utility. Once you reach flying that thing in level 5 setting, you'll change your mind. Beside that, Dodo was one of the first who added a Cumulative Wear and Damage system in FSX. And as long as we still don't have any Cargo Hooking option in DCS, I still need to "hook up" in FSX to quencher that thirst.

 

Yet no matter what a wonderful job Dodosim did with its Jetranger 206, I've got to admit, it can't top the Uh-1Huey :thumbup:

Will there be also a CargoMirror?
Well, I strongly hope so, otherwise I'll have to drill a hole in the Chop's ground! :D

I have nothing against a bubble door either :p

There is a cargo camera in the views that pops a window showing a camera underbelly. Very useful since we don't have human cargo calls.

 

On a more serious note, the 1.2.7 is the FINAL Huey release version. Sadly I think this brings multiplayer door gunners to rest. That is because of the EDGE/NTTR business going on..

 

I'll be happy with sling loading at least, if provided with sling load editor SDK. Maybe someone can lift a wrigley's or an AAA ZU-23 static.. Hell even an empty SAM launcher.

 

 

Oh, and dahui, what's wrong with Airbus? It beat Boeing with a fistagon A380..

 

Systems are much simpler inside Airbus compared to 747-400X (AS AxE vs. PMDG)..

 

I have both but Airbus is my country's workhorse (EgyptAir) and from A320. At least FBW first used by Airbus..

When 1.2.7 is out of open beta the hope is the huey will be released as a finished product with the proviso that as ED releases the multi crew code, it will be implemented

 

Oh and WildBill what is the shortcut for cargo cam? I have looked several times in the options and cant find it :)

Not implemented, yet. Although, there were already mods made by someone for an earlier version that enabled the (unfinished) external cargo functionality, including that cam. But, sry, can't remember who or where that was ...

PeterP's sling load mod was written for 1.2.5.

The cargo camera still works in 1.2.6, but the sling doesn't show up. I guess ED has changed or moved the setting for the sling. So until some bright fellow figures out where that is, we will just have to wait.

RCtrl+Rshift+L/C or RCtrl+Ralt+C/L... one of these four. Sorry cibit not infront of my simming PC now.

The mod is actually easy to activate. PeterP says its already in code waiting for activation.

Is the cargo camera view deactivated in 1.2.7?

I'm sure it was Lctrl + Lshift + C in 1.2.6...

But there are no keyboard assignments for the cargo functions in 1.2.7 and the functions don't work at all(actually mapped on my stick).

All pre 1.2.7 including 1.2.6 maps have to be re-assigned in 1.2.7.

I'll have to check to confirm.
