helicopter sniper
« on: 23 Aug 2003, 05:14:45 »
Is there any way to shoot from a helicopter (Little Bird or Black Hawk) while riding as a passenger? I am trying to make a mission where the helicopter supports the ground element as a sniper position. Is there a script for this?

thanks

It only works when the chopper is Holding Position... to make Ai hold postion look in the readme.... It sure is fun shooting LAWS and ATs out the back.... lol

I did edit a huey that i downloaded, added these big stretcher like things on the side, had the passenger "get out" position just above these and when the chopper had halted, no movement whatsoever if you were the passenger you could eject and land on on of the stretchers, all you need to do is go prone and you can shoot over the edge. it is very hard to do though, the chopper may move slighty, you will fall of the side. it is almost impossible to use with AI pilots.

Well, it's just that OFP engine can't handle two seperate
units (vehicles i mean) in one when it comes to movement.

What probably could work is:

An addonmaker (i'm not one), creates a chopper,
where he would make a sniper slot (instead of the
usual gunner slot).

e.g: get in gunner

and instead of the usual mg on the side you would
have a sniper scope and of course a simulated
sniper rifle.

As far as i know, has nobody done that yet (maybe has
noone thought of that yet).

But this would then belong to the addon ideas section.

Or we could just simply keep what you said earlier:

NO
