This work it beauty
What You add else?

thats awesome, good work, i take it theres a hind skinned model to flt to go with this?

i often wondered for ages, why, why no of the games companies have`nt brought a new heli sim based around the hind?....it does feature in conflicts around the globe after all....

anyway heres one of me with said gunship, when i was still in the RAF;

Is the window-wiper key still free in one of the modifiers (ctrl/lalt/ralt/shift)? I don't have the latest keymap but putting it there would make sense (in weird way).

I don't know about you guys but IMVHO, being able to turn the fan on and off is a very important function that absolutely must not be left to the AI. Maybe there should be something in the options menu: "Realistic fan behavior: ON/OFF". Not to overwhelm the beginner and all, but the pros among us should be able to handle it.

Absolutely awesome work. Really incredible.

I won't make an external skin. But others might. In fact pilot111 already made a quite nice on here: http://www.simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=269219&Number=2542189



I guess the old-fashioned avionics isn't as sexy as the Apache and other more modern helicopters. That said Eagle are making one for their DCS series.



Yes, I believe both shift and ctrl are free for that key, and it is one I'm considering using.

Got any more pics AJ, that is sweet!

The old HIND by DI is still one of my all time favorites.I get so sick of flying gunships.What was great about Hind was aside from just blowing #%&*$# up you laid mines and inserted troops.Id sure like to see a new helicopter sim that features more then just the gunship role in the future again.Looking forward to this new cockpit for EECH as well!Great work!

wot of m8, hind? or military AC in general?

Definitely of the Hind!

no sorry thats the only one i have

Admittedly not as important as the fan, but here's the windshield wiper:




And of course, like in the other helicopters it works and leaves a pattern of rain-free window when in use. This latest addition clutters up the front view even more, and forward visibility is starting to suffer a bit with all that stuff getting in the way.

Regard it as a challenge. Managing to effectively combat the OPFOR with all that stuff in the way makes you an excellent attack chopper driver.

And that's, what I've been waiting for, great job Arneh

I've worked on some of the instruments. The top row are now working, and they also look a bit sharper and better (they've gotten a little depth in 3D):


If you compare to the row below you can see that they look a bit better than the temporary texture I'm still using for the other instruments.



Or to see how the same instruments looked previously compare with this screenshot from the very first post in this thread:


From a little further away this is how it looks:

Amazing stuff Arneh!

Great work ARneh...guess not long till ETA?

Don't expect it soon, still lots of work to do.

Is the position indicator working on the map?

It shows your position, yes. Though it doesn't move, but the map does move.
