Combat-Helo Prologue wip Video in HD

Now available.

*edit* A few additional notes...

The controller setup page shown in this video has a number of devices listed. These are just the ones I had plugged in at the time of recording. All DirectInput controllers should be available, some will have ready to fly config files (most Saitek sticks, Logitech).



I forgot to turn on the post processing effects since I work without them (generates more heat). There is a LOT of changes going on to various sensors and the IHADSS won't be updated to reflect these changes until I've done the MPDs. So please no accuracy police, I'm aware of the various bits and bobs. It's all in hand.

    that really shows how the night vision works in the eyepiece... that's very cool.

    Im loving how the flight model looks... like a heavy battle copter with a lot of power.

  8. Accuracy police...?!?! Ok I shut up! :) It is really good though, flight model even though I am not feeling through the video, it looks very accurate.

    Do you still want me to comment on the last entry of the sensors post or you got enough on your plate right now? It can wait. I also heard the IDM sound in the beginning of the video, do you have all the cockpit sounds?

    Gun rounds, do you guys use tracers in UK or that is an effect to help the simmer?

    Yeah if you can shoot me an email on those last points. I need to complete all those points I've got feedback on.

    Do you still have the IDM sound as your ringtone? Sharp ears, I use a version of it I mixed as the default user interface beep. Two stage tone, one steps up for opening something, one steps down for closing.

    That and the betty we had recorded are the only cockpit sounds I have. The APR 39 at power-up (by the same lady although I heard it in a U2oob video as a robotic sounding voice), the IDM and the engine audio. That's it.

    The tracers are a gaming conceit, people expect to see them and they help me gauge obvious problems with trajectory. Also it means for night vision I don't have to do anything special (plus they glow in the PNVS if glow-postfx is turned on).

  11. @jeff No dogs. Just unkempt garden much to the dismay of the neighbours. I have names for all their garden appliances, all of them starting with the name of the object and ending with "of guilt".
