Advanced flying

[DanVonTrap]

Just wondering have the epoch guys disabled the option for players to switch between standerd and advanced helicopters controls. Because all we can do on our server is use the advanced features even when we switch to standerd it has no effect

Not sure what you mean, but if you want to get rid of the whacky flight controlls (in epoch) un pack the mission file and edit this;

 

forceRotorLibSimulation = 1;

in description.ext to

forceRotorLibSimulation = 0;

 

And it will be more like the regular flight in ArmA

I think the new controls really make it more or a survival game :)

Awesome will try this out. Basically by default on our server the advanced flying feature is active. But if you go into the settings to change to standard it has no effect and I believe standard is meant to be the simple flying mechanics

True but it would be nice to be able to have the option to change back to basic. For the noob pilots like myself :-)

When editing the mission PBO file it will delete the signature. If I create a new signature, do I need to change something somewhere else or will the new signature work? If so where do I put this new signature?

this folder is in mp mission unpack the pbo and it is called description.ext

go find a Mosquito.

 This thing is crazy sensitive. So easy to flip the thing over. Find it way harder to fly than the sim settings.

[CorruptHawkeyez]

I found that particular file, but when I drag it out to edit it, it says my digital signature will be removed....Do I need to recreate a signature???

[MPG]

your best bet is getting pbo manager. you unpack it for example right click the file test and unpack it to test/ then open it in note ++ and edit it save and repack your test/ to the original pbo.

[CorruptHawkeyez]

OK, I got it figured out. Thanks MPG, now onto adding items other items into the server.

Many of our players have died in this "thing" that thinks it is a helicopter.  :P

[Brez]

Call it the .. .Misquit-No
 

 

 

I bet the majority will revert the flight controls.. We are not gearing up to go to flight school.  We are playing a video game for fun.

Well it is just a bunch of metal stock welded together by some dude in their backyard lol.  

[MGT_Dazza]

New mozzie is easy to fly and do loop the loops lol

[Brez]

Maybe it's just the advanced flight model applied on various servers that is screwing up players.. To be expected.

It's actually the only chopper that doesn't use rotorlib.  The controls are tight but managable.

[PapaRenner]

can i change the "epoch.Altis.pbo" without which it is required to download someone else?

[vbawol]

Since 1.36 you can also simply override this setting in your servers config.cfg 

forceRotorLibSimulation = 0;

[PapaRenner]

Thx ! :)

 

[PapaRenner]

is this function available or must it add?

[cody_]

Do you mean the config.cfg or the epochconfig.hpp? Because the parameter exists in neither of them.
