EricJ Helicopter Pack

Description
RC167
- MH-60S (Transport) and HH-60H (Minigun) have the appropriate HMDs
- Added a TF 562 Sniper (MAR-10) to the TF 562 faction.

The mod mainly features UH-60 helicopters, and features variants for the US Arrny, US Navy, and 160th SOAR. It also offers 32 styles of helicopters, from Avatar -like helicopters to normal UH-60 variants.It should be noted that they are ported A2 models from the massive A2 Samples and done with some additional updates for A3. It also features a ducted fan attack helicopter, and variants for the US Army, and 160th SOAR as well. It also comes with a UAV designed for attack and cargo missions, as well as civilian and transport versions. Also featured are liftable cargo containers (within reason) for the helicopters, similar to the Helicopter DLC cargo containers, but lighter to allow a wide variety of modded and vanilla helicopters to use. Works with (but doesn't require) The USAF Mod (for the inflight refuelling capability) and ACE3 (missile guidance and medical, and fast roping).

KNOWN ISSUES:
- Some M134 barrels don't rotate when fired. I tried to figure this one out, but for some helos it just won't work, and may be an engine limitation.
- If flying faster than 150kts on the UH-60M series, the ATRQ (Tail rotor) will break due to some issue with the sling load you're carrying, I don't know if that's a feature and not a bug, but something to keep in mind when sling loading stuff on those helicopters.

Errors? Please, when reporting a bug, have the mod and CBA_A3 loaded as much as possible. Some errors are generated by other mods and I can't control how other people's work affects this mod. Thank you.

Also I do a lot of work through the Discord I maintain as I only reply to comments more or less, and don't like posting updates on here, due to the limit in characters. Scroll up and you can find my Discord and I'd like for you to show up and maybe interact and stuff.

Did some research on the HH-60Hs and found out that the aircraft can sling load, so the capability will be introduced this Sunday, given that it can lift 2,722 kilograms. Not much but it can lift some things for milsim needs.

With the new update for the EricJ Helicopter Pack, I'm planning on releasing a "Pilot HH-60H" Multiplayer mission Sunday. I can make the mission today more than likely but can't release it until Sunday due to the nature of the way Steam updates, and so on. Either way I can make the mission to coincide with the update. It should be noted that I tend to focus on MP missions. If you're looking for SP missions let me know and I'll see what I can do.

I just had to block somebody for pestering me too much to do so something. If I tell you that I don't want to do it, I don't need you to try and pester me, thinking that will somehow motivate me to do it. If it gets too much I'll just block you and you can go your merry way or do it yourself. I am under no obligation to acquiesce a particular request, especially if I give a reasonable answer why I won't do it.

Just so everybody knows, I have no plans on doing heavy-lift helos. You can find Kit040199 on Discord and talk to him as he's sometime going to do a Quad Rotor Chinook. I don't know when, but he's got the materials, so talk to him about it, if you're hankering for one. As for me I'm doing some maintenance stuff and not looking to add anything in the short term.

Look man, I'll do it when I'm good and ready to do it. I'm under no obligation to do anything for the community. So when it pops up, it'll pop up, but for now I'm not in the works to do most anything with the mod.

Also just a general tip when checking for a bug. Unload all your mods and just have the mod and CBA_A3 running to clean things up. Some mods do things and may present an unrelated bug or error that is beyond my control with other people's mods. I don't use a lot of mods myself, but the less chance of an error due to somebody else's work when reporting an issue please.

Also looked at the issue with the pilot/co-pilot thing with the laser not working. I think it's Arma maybe? I have it priority for the co-pilot, and so should be the one gunning anyway, not the pilot.
EricJ  [author] Aug 2 @ 10:49am 
I think the USAF stuff is on your end, I tested it with no mods other than CBA_A3 and couldn't get that error. As for the AH-96 I'll look into that too, missed that when replying

Okay don't know the Hellfires caused that issue, I don't use any USAF Mod code, so that's a new one, but will look at the config though... I've noticed that effect with the Hellfires and that's a warhead thing, as it uses submunitions to attack the target, and that's probably BS's way of modeling that. The Pilot shoudn't really be using the Hellfires, but I can see if I can't change it to the Co-pilot by default and that might clear things up. Not sure about the designater, that may be game behavior. But I'll look into the missile code and the Co-Pilot stuff though.
