Thank you very much for your hard work Thealx. I enjoi your job, you are on the good way.

Two litle things:

- Can I still using Alt+F3 for Zoom in and Alt+f4 for zoom out. Now I can do this with the mouse and I like, but I cant't use old combination keys.
- I think that the blades gets rpm too fast when you start the engines. Could you do this more slowly, similar to DCS. I think is more realistic.

I love the vibrations when the blades are getting rpm, the new rotor effect, the new dammage effects, the fog on the forest trees...
I still testing but my computer gets wrong after playing some time, but I persit.
Thanks a lot Thealx

I thought it will be good to have some free hotkeys in reserve, but if you need them - no problem.


I'm completely understand your desire for realism, but we should stay in balance between realism and arcade because everyone enjoying different sides of this game. Some day I will be ready to make new avionic's difficult (or change current difficulties) and only then will be possible to move in both directions independently.

New update is available. New textures, models geometry fixed, specularity effects are different - some helis are glossy, some matte. If you find something odd in models you can report now.

Thank you thealx ,glosiness looks coool:)(edit: I think that glossiness is not for geforce there are graphical problems in some cockpits)
MI17- work of art


ka29 i think has missing texture? few black parts on the engines and nose.
When I enter into the apache helicopter jumps, or one time , or all the time, around the, until I crash.

apache external model, pilot position has a texture reverse glare shield on the left(two missing textures you see in the picture)
in apache under the engine is reverse/transaparent texture.

The same SuperCobra (with your camo) reverse texture around(inside) rotor shield.




In ch53 poorly matched texture

Great job mate, do I need to DL and install any of the previous versions if I already have an original 1.15 installed?

Nope, you can install it on 1.15.



thanks, will fix it.



they are black, aren't they?





what do you mean by problems - like shining of cockpits surfaces?

It was mistake in gwut file, please update manually it (it can be downloaded at first link http://rapidshare.com/share/3852C5DECA32B25E37355F4402607F7C )

I'm not have sound on this mod

If you have sound blaster or any good sound card use cohokum.exe and set in eech.ini hdwrbuf more than 0
if you have normal onboard sound card use cohokum_ds and set 0 hardwarebuffer


Thealx youre right about helix,I just remembered another version IRL;)


Btw please if is not many work, you can change in apache flare launchers from one to two (in the game code)Now there is only one, which not used anymore.

Rafal1537, try both COHOKUM_1.15.2.EXE and COHOKUM_DS_1.15.2.EXE


I will try.

Downloaded now, i'll try it as soon as possible, thanks for the job.

This is old problem .All glass surfaces are shifted and affect with geforce head.when I enable GeForce "TnL" support
For example I added glass for ka50,and windows glass are shifted.There is a simple way to fix this in LW?Shining surfaces too I saw.

I noticed this problem in ka-50 cockpit only, and TnL has nothing to do with this - this bug don't dissapear when I set notnl=1. in your case it's different? you can check in the model's scene that parent object (or next to it) has x0y0z0 coords. but I thing something wrong with code.

RC2 Looking very good so far, and no deadly ospreys either!

It's good that everything (except..) is ok. Made some changes in suspension calculations, some helis are still shaky, but I think it's good enough. After finishing with LODs, maybe some extra bugs fixes, final test and release.

I will only add from myself that thealx all skins and camo do from the beginning itself.True artist.

I think everyone will be confused - most of the textures was just found (or was stolen if you would like =)
but some textures and camo skins I made myself, don't forget you are the one who recolored them. it's really good work to replace outdated models and textures but can't say it was something "unbelievable".

Do not change my mind,because I know how many you did;) This is not a simple game in paint.Professional work

It's good that this is coming to completion, but could we leave it in 'test' for a few more weeks to see if there are other issues raised?

The last major release came out without much testing, and had a lot of problems. It would be good to have it in testing for a while longer, with people playing it longer and see if there's anything else that needs or could be fixed.

Overall, it would be good to get the quality of the releases increased.

I think that many people do not install it because fear" rc" string.If see a clean 1.15.2 will be more testers.
