apologies that doesnt help, I dont know what or where the support menu is :P

Also there seems to be a bug at the pick up point at Gerebu, the landing spot directly north of the South West base. all the people are stood under a tree, and even landing 12m from them they wont get in the heli.

still enjoying this mission better than any other mission of its kind though. lol

Diilicious hover with a cursor over the base you wanna move to and then select fast travel in support menu.

I managed to crashland and the helicopter has a repair kit inside of it but my character doesnt have a backpack so i cant pick it up to repair the helicopter with it.

Also how do you fast travel? ive read the instructions ingame but the bases are not selectable and im not sure where the "support menu" is? does it mean your own map or a static map inside the bases themselves?

haha, yea thats uh... a lot harder wow :D max storms is punishing, really hard to mentally keep track of them all

Diilicious You can adjust some parameters when you launch this mission in MP. Maybe try with that. :>

Ive played many dozens of hours of missions just like this and this one was BY FAR the best.

I really like the storms and the hostile AA positions.
My only gripe is that it isnt longer! :D
It would be very awesome if the longer you played the more storms there were to avoid up to a limit of like 20 or something.
There were some missions that needed you to go really close to the rebel positions to pick up stranded people. maybe in boats or something.

After playing this now its hard to go back to the other similar missions that have less of a vibe to them.

Very good mission!

Okay, "asshold". XD
At no point did I ask you to speak "my language" as english is not my native language but it is the language of the World Wide Web (which would ya know it just so happened to be named in english) and if you are interested in being understood by someone who does not speak yours I suggest using the one we collectively agreed on.

If you find the number of thunderstorms too high you can start mission in MP mode where you can adjust it if I remember correctly.

I sincerely wish you a good day. :>

Have to many red circles in the map. Its hard to play with so many thunders. Do you want a drawning to understand asshold? This is internet World web or EUA web? Im dont speak your language jerk
BlackFox  [author] 17 Jul, 2024 @ 1:32am 
GideBD Sir, I have no clue what you are trying to say. This is the internet. We speak english here.

Tem muitos twisters no mapa. Não tem como tirar algumas tempestades de raios?

kolikov-fr thanks. :>

A lot of fun :steamthumbsup:

el vits In no way shape or form were those perfectly circular patches of clouds which strike helicopters but only ones with currently operating engines meant to be close to real.

And idea that they should is weird to me.
Udanego dnia życzę nonetheless :>

if the storms were not so fast (utterly unrealistic) it would be a very good scenario

JPAB97S Thank You. :>

In those kinds of mission RNGeezus sometimes smiles uppon You and all the storms move far from You but other times RNGeezus is not pleased with your existance and randomly yeets few at once your way. XD

Missions with high degree of randomness are like that some times.

You actually made a civilian air ferry mission challenging, that takes a whole lot of imagination! I was really close to completing this one, but on the way to the last objective I got 3 storms jump me one after the other, cutting off the engine got me through the first 2, but by the 3rd I had lost so much airspeed and altitude that I had to turn it back on (tried to emergency land on a tiny island) but the storm got me for good. I was probably going to crash it anway xD
Great fun!

SeaCaptainJim thanks. C:
There is actually premade psd template file in Arma 3 Samples made by Bohemia.

I'm planing on addind custom texture to that Mi-290 at some point but I'm currently having issues with my computer that already cost my SSD. Once I resolve it I will return to both updating already uploaded mission and releasing new ones.
Unfortunatly for now it is what it is. :<
SeaCaptainJim 10 Mar, 2023 @ 10:09am 
cool mission - love the storms

I noticed that the cargo pods on the Taru dont have a custom texture - you can find the paa file at:

Arma\heli\Air_F_Heli\Heli_Transport_04\Data\Heli_Transport_04_Pod_Ext01_Black_CO.paa","A3\Air_F_Heli\Heli_Transport_04\Data\Heli_Transport_04_Pod_Ext02_Black_CO.paa

Maxie when they catch you, you can turn off the engine and glide to the other side, or land and they will fly over you. :>

THIS MISSION IS VERY DIFFICULT. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES AND NEVER GOTTEN PAST THOSE NASTY STORMS. I EITHER RUN INTO THEM OR THEY CHASE ME DOWN AND DESTROYS MY HELO. AND IF ITS NOT THE STORM ITS THE AA BANDITS.
Trigger 5 Mar, 2023 @ 6:01am 
big oof with that SSD lol and yea i did think about that with the water and thought it would be a good race against the time but forgot about the actual helo bases too
BlackFox  [author] 5 Mar, 2023 @ 4:13am 
Trigger I think it maybe possible but it's not easy as far as I can tell. :/

Also that would create problem with some locations on map being submerged in short order meaning those wouldn't be valiable for IDAP camps. (still I'm happy to hear suggestions :>)

Furthermore I've done fucked up and my SSD with Arma on it got wrecked yesterday so for now I have unplanned technical break from Arma. XD
Trigger 5 Mar, 2023 @ 3:48am 
damn that must be a pain and i got a suggestion for you tho im not sure how easy it would be to that mabby make it so that witch each earthquake the water level rises
BlackFox  [author] 4 Mar, 2023 @ 11:06pm 
Trigger I know that it's mirrored.
Unfortunatly both helicopters from Helicopter DLC have their textures mirrored so there is kind nothing I can do about it. That is how those models have their UVs setup by Bohemia. :C
Trigger 4 Mar, 2023 @ 9:50am 
hey just to let you know the idap on one side of the CH-67 is the wrong way (im guessing bc you just mirrod the livery witch very good job on btw)
