#Mi-24 Hind
1 messages Β· Page 1 of 1 (latest)
I always wondered, what is the long stick on the cabin up front?
air speed indicator.
Oh WOW! AMAZING! π
Is this from previouse Arma or totally new model/textures?
Looks fresh to me
I don't think I say it enough, I have tons of respect for people that try to implement features in the game that are not officially supported, you guys are doing great
I'm hoping a basic turret component can be used to make the gunner operate the 30 mm cannon
It's a new model. The Arma 2 one is beyond repair
STATUS RED
Going to be a lot of hunting resource material to get things working right.
anything specific you need?
Honestly, a field/operating manual in english.
But for the gunner, it's going to be references on interface operations.
will dm
Damn so good to finally see new stuff rather than the always re-used stuff. Can't WAIT! π
Many sleepless nights await me
As a pilot and as a aviation enthusiast
Technically, the MI-24 has serval versions. One with a 30mm one with a 7.62 mini-gun another with a 20mm cannon strapped to the side and more
On another note, the mi-24 brought a tear to my eye
Finally ππ
Somehow the .gif showing the Hind in top-down view give's me some Arma 2 Utes vibes. π
Specifically this is the Mi24V
If iβm correct thatβs the minigun right?
Pretty sure
Supposedly it's trash according to Mi pilots
Yeah, any minigun mounted is really hard to hit single targets
Itβs more of a suppression weapon or to kill light armoured vehicles i guess
But overall when the enemy is using either a 20-30mm chaingun the dinky minigun is so ineffective in comparison
Still sounds and looks scary
This looks amazing pal
Thanks champ
This shit sick
Yeee
This gonna be fun
When will this fun begin exactly π
The last time I saw a teaser versus the release date it was months apart
Im Looking foward to next month's edition
MY LIFE IS COMPLETE
14 dudes with m4s
^ On god
Server crash
Doesn't the JLTV crash the server when you shoot it
not anymore
Hell yeah
Yes Hartley, you're welcome
Thank youxx
My money has turned up profitable for the community
Very much so
My dark raider Stryker has a minigun on it so the hind gonna get Brrrrrrrted
Wait
Hold up
Imagine
The gunner of the hind
Can change to a atgm
That locks on
Using same systems as javalin
Anyone else enjoy the idea of having an actual pilot and gunner I sure do some good stuff π
Mhmm
I'm already dreaming of the things I want to do
Those sexy exhaust pipes
Sick
pld u need this is a bf4 reference
Noice
I can't wait to fly one of my favorite kinds of helis great work y'all keep up the absolutely stellar work!
It's Nemeth Design's model from FSX/P3D. I guess they didn't want any credit?
The hype is real
Gotta keep people updated π
Where will you or did you get the audio?
The Arma 2 one was?
Like the blackhawk and MD500, we will be repurposing A2/Take on helicopters sounds.
No, the model you show above is.
No it's not. It's also not an Mi-35, it's an Mi-24v. It was created by an artist known as Tapsiful. He's done other work in the Arma community previously.
Take a look a these screenshots; https://www.nemethdesigns.com/product/mil-mi-24v-hind-e-fsx-fsxse-p3d/#&gid=1&pid=21 For sure looks like the same model. Geo and textures the same.
The model was purchased from this person.
https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/mil-mi-24v-max/970786
His background was confirmed by more than one person within this community and has done work for previous mods as well as SOG Prairy Fire.
Is Nemeth reselling that hind?
or is it for sale in whatever game they assembled it for?
β¬15.75 vs $254 why?
They sell it as a flight-sim add-on. Nothing against that in Turbosquid TOS
Ahh.
That's why it's so cheap compared to the original. It's purchasing it just for use in Microsoft Flight Sim.
Not the best deal for tapisful; Nemeth surely sell a few thousand
Oh okay i was already wondering cuz i somehow expected it to be much more than just 15.75β¬. π
To be frank, it's one thing to make art, its another to get it working in game. Tapsiful does what he does well, and he does do it well, and gets paid a decent amount for it. The model appears to be nearly 10 years old, I can only imagine how many times he's sold it.
Have you ever a spotted a good model of that wierd little square Soviet heli for picking things up
I forget the name
Ka-226. Odd looking thing. Soviet "Little Bird"
No.
Any military vehicle with quality interior is really hard to find. We were not even going to do the Hind due to cost till someone offered to pay for it.
Hum3D could probably make you one, but you are looking at over a grand, and a solid month or so to get it.
They used to do interiors for 600, used that a couple of times, miss it π
Interiors are now $1k to 1200. Just the interiors.
The amount people charge for shit for reforger is insane
Although I refused to pay 2 dollars for a morphine injector model so I can't really talk
Well, it's not 2009 anymore. Joe Blow can't make a quality vehicle model in his spare time. Or he can, but it's going to look like dogshit. Arma 3 was the same. Arma 4 will be even worse. It's getting to the point with quality that modding in vehicles will need to be done by people with lots of money, or Game industry standard art skills and Tech Art skills, and developer level programming skills.
I was gonna learn blender to try and help people get stuff for cheap but my laptop shit the bed the second I downloaded it
Once I get a new one I will try to get good at it
FYI, Hum3D isn't what you would call "hobbyist centered". They sell 3d models for games. Their licensing really pushes large purchases to attain discounts. They sell to studios using dozens of vehicles in their games. Those people can afford to pay for quality assets like that.
Would you say it makes those wanting to get into modeling and designing harder to get into the industry?
This hind model was well over $200, but it's also not very new. It's been around the block obviously. Pool of assets that match Reforger quality is shrinking and getting more expensive at the same time.
Not necessarily. If you wanted to focus on modeling, and get good at it, there are many many resources these days to assist you.
Blender isn't industry standard, but since 2.8 it's been getting a lot closer. Lots of tutorials and online courses for Maya, which is industry standard. Maya has a decently priced subscription model.
I never thought about arma 4. People gon have to take out second mortgages just to get a truck mod made
Gib apatche next?
No
Gib $$$ to buy model.
Another way to think about it, BI have indicated there will be, in some form, a way for creators to monetize with A4. So you may be able to invest in making great mods and get paid for it.
Will there be any other variants of the Mi like the MI-8 @radiant tusk
No
Sad times π₯²
Mi-8MT will come with Air Assault update along with a UH-1H
Isnβt the air assault update nearby
π€·
π
"2023" - bohemia themselves
We're not even done with the ground support update
Everyone just let these guys work, your getting what they add. The more you pressure them with requests the longer it'll take for the new toy.
^
I agree Iβm also pretty sure one of the helis is coming out anyway people honestly just need to be patient π
Mi-8
Huey
That's what's planned
So yeah just wait and youβll get your Mi-8 and I believe weapon systems are also included later down the line for helis
Yeah
I'm stoked for the hind
I wish the javalin could release around now
Put atgms on the hind
I know itβs an actual proper attack helicopter
!!!
Imagine if the gunner when ads could lock targets and launch atgms
Using the javalin but reskinned and on a heli
Would be EPIC! honestly canβt wait for pilot and gunner gameplay ππ
You know that rocket pod mod?
Ashyls one
Ub-32 I believe it is
Ye I think I do
Damn were they sheeesh canβt wait tho
The Mi24 has a gyro stabilised sight on it that uses a laser range finder to help guide the missile in using radio waves.
It's not nearly as easy to hit a target as locking on sadly
The fact you specified that, makes me curious
Foreshadowing...
Nope, no foreshadowing
Aww
Is there going to be different camouflages for it or is it going to be later on down the pipeline?
Eventually I want to retexture it as all we got with the model is a color texture
Will you add a sight to the little bird? Or will it stay based on vision
When providing CAS
I think I added a mark on the glass?
Nope
Well I plan to re-add it in the future then
Alr Ty
Tight fit
Cuddle buddys
Also gun works now
Will you be able to mess with the doors like you can on the Blackhawk?
Have you got a cockpit view?
Makes me happy :Dd
Stunning
Holy cow looks crazy in there π
Do you know why they paint the insides of there vehicles green-y blue?
Apparently they did this for the pilots. The colours are supposed to be calming
Ah ngl it definitely is π
I think it's more further up so gunner
Pilot
The gunner has a lot less going on
Oh wow
Heβll be all cosy then haha
Gunner just has a button that says kill π
And his fan, very important
Yes does it spin π
Soon tm
:DD
Will this have countermeasures?
Eventually
Niceee
CM is really just decoration at this point still
not too familiar with this helicopter does the land gear go up in this one?
God Iβd hate having to do all the little bits π
People do appreciate it tho π
Definitely the game would be dead without mods
Fr this game would be ass wit no mods
It rly need's some pilot/crew for this one!
Looking bit weird to see regular soldier in pilot seat.
But yeah beside's that pretty good job! π
Gotta wait for the air update sadly π
RHS mod has pilot helmets
One message removed from a suspended account.
That's what I was thinking
You could use the ranger mod's heli headgear and say they stole them or something?
Guess putting RHS unit(s) into it will already look much better than the vanilla soldier's.
Yeah. If you're using modern units, you could make the pilots be the regular flora outfit
Just to separate and make them more unique
Outta curiosity are there any plans for secondary armaments like rockets or something like that?
pretty sure it already has rockets
Is this a new model or did you take it from Arma 2?
New model
I bought it for Strider off CGTrader
Brand new Model
Once the weapon Loadout is set n functional, namely the turret, are there plans for an American gunship as well?
True, but a Cobra is cooler π
I mean you could always make it if you really want it
I leave that to the professionals lol. Very excited to see this one in action, it looks great
if you want a cobra, considering buying a model for stryder to use like this one, it has full interior and everything. https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/aircraft/military-aircraft/bell-ah-1-cobra-27c6516d-0080-4d2f-9870-c5cd96e8d783
Nah badly priced either
Just because you buy me a model never means I am going to make that model
My biggest reason for saying no to a us attack heli is that I don't have any time between modding and uni to do something else of own time
I have the strykers to finish up as well so all of my free time that isn't just doing mods for other people goes into that at the moment
most models that have fully modeled interiors and rigged doors are around 200$
Still not a bad price lol
I thought u meant it was badly priced
Noooo itβs good
Loving the HinD!
The carry space, the gunner seat, the copious amounts of Fuck You tied to left click.....
More than worth the wait
Only gripe whatsoever is, can you fit another seat on each lane in there? 6 people feels too little
Where would they even sit?
Im unsure
Irl the hind could fit 8, not 6, plus crew
Dont know if its a model limitation or something, but maybe holding onto the door?
Be happy with what ya got nerds
Oh trust me I am
Would be sick if we could be inside while it flys. Same with the chinook. Or in the hind have placements like seats in the empty space. For example if you had a Blackhawk with no seats like in the movie black hawk down. Instead of the characters being seated in seats maybe have them placed within the veh. Just an idea. Not sure how hard doing it would actually be.
