Abbreviations for the weapon name is now shown
This completes the weapons panel.
It needs tested. I couldn't find a campaign that had the KA50 as flyable, so I wasn't able to test the names with all the loadouts, only Igla and Vikhr. If there's any weapon that can be equipped that I've missed, let me know. I've added abbreviations for Ataka (AK), Igla (IG), S-8 / S-13 (RK), and Cannon Pods (CP).
I also added AP and HE for the selected cannon.
Also, I seem to have developed a weird issue, where if my resolution is set to 1600x900 as I always have it, then the map fails to load. If I delete game.cfg it reverts to 800x600 and works fine. So could you test this build at different resolutions.
Link, details and images updated in the first post.

Actually, I do experience strange thing with campaign load - sometimes it started to freeze even before I can choose side, I'm using 1920x1080 and 1280x1024. it can be fixed by cfg file removal - after that I can set my resolution. In your case changing it back to 1600x900 cause issue again, right? Sometimes when I changed it back after deleting game.cfg, it still happened. I saw it freezing when selecting the campaign, but if I quit (or it crashed) and I tried again, then it worked. Seemed intermittent. Does this happen on the test build too, or just my build? Do you mean that there's a long pause before it loads the helicopters view to select which side? I've seen this a lot, but even in 1.16. When do you think we can build final version of 1.16.1? You are still working with cockpit features, but I'm almost finished with all tasks I had. Can help with testing when you will be ready. I think we could go with what I've done so far, as the majority of the required functionality is there. I had a note to refactor the code for the weapon panel, as it could probably be tidier, but it works so doesn't need done for now. Maybe you could check it to see if there's any obvious issues? My branch needs merged into master though. The remaining tasks are mainly cosmetic, and the re-texture could take a while. I think I might combine the re-texture with animating switches/dials/levers, and possibly adding the cockpit door animation, and it can be released as a mod, and include the overhead panels too. I'm just looking at the fuel dials just now, and adding 2 fuel tanks from the 1.15.4 code. One question I had for people's opinions was regarding the internal cameras. They're in the other helos that have pilots, and so you can see action shots. But in the Backshark: 1 - they're all in the wrong place and show views outside the cockpit, 2 - there's no pilot. So should I just remove them?

For me remove pilot. Messyhead imho most important than switches and animate doors is cleaning scene i mean Refactor code to make Blackshark separate from Hokum. Pease if you can try do this before new release.

Pease if you can try do this before new release. That's actually a pretty big task, and could take a while. I do intend to do that though, but not for now. I've cleaned up the scene quite a bit and removed most of the Hokum parts or references.

What is a waste? The problem seem to be that Javelin mod is integrated in 1.16.1 I think all mods must be individuly, so if you dont like it, you dont put it, dont you? I dont understand the new FM Javelin mod, any body can speak about that? I love the original FM or the old one present in 1.15.4 and 1.16, simple and effective. Opinions please I thought Javelins mod was just the hover hold? Was there more to it? He had some real world knowledge, so had applied real values. I think FM should be choosable in the EECH.ini. Other mods like adding cockpit details that improve the base game, should be integrated. Anything additional, like airports, extra models, modified models etc should be choosable and installable as add ons. Same for campaigns and maps actually. But the added user campaigns and maps are all in the base game now, even if there is problems with them.
