Hey guys, I got a question.

Will we ever see the 3d hud for the heli? I saw a guy on youtube who managed to fix it for BF2. His first version only worked for BF2142 but he has figured out a way to make it work for BF2 too. So once again I ask you, will we ever see this in PR:

I guess that alot of you guys already has seen this video. But I couldn't find a thread about it on this forum.

Thats from combined arms isnt it?

Mosquill is working on it outside of PR and its still WIP at the moment but if all goes well you may see it in PR in the future

Cheers Rhino, just what I wanted to hear Well sure, I was hoping for your post to say "comming next patch <.< >.>" but this is better than nothing.

How does he use freecam and turn the choppaa?

Look at CA, they've done it with jets (though not helicopters due to most peiople flyign with mouse/keyboard in them). He uses free cam by using multiple inputs (either mouse+joystick, mouse+trackIR, or joystick+trakIR, tho I'm thinking it's the latter ).

Anyways, mosquill is the most kickass coder for the Refractor 2 engine I've seen to day, so I've still got my doubts as to whether or not he created the damend enigine himself

Stuff like this and fastropes will be here when PR 1 comes out

Correct me if im wrong but i think this actually was on the BF2142 engine, not the BF2 engine.

It was on BF2, as the name of the video suggests...

As I mentioned, he "recently" made it work for BF2 too.

Also, McLuvin whats mod is CA? (short name doesn't really ring a bell)

if you hold the ctrl key (default) then it lets you freecam =]

Yeah, but well he's using a thing called TrackIR, it doesn't require him to press ctrl, and he can control the heli while looking at the left/down/up/right side.

Combined Arms : PR Add-On

Would this be possible with armor?

Sort of like how the BC2 HUD works in armored vehicles (you will notice it moves around a bit when driving or you get hit)

EXCELLENT!!! The main problem I have with flying helos is not having working instruments to keep the helo level (mainly while landing, but gotten better at it). I'm more of one of the "fly off the instruments, but seat of the pants while being fired at".

reminds me of fh2 dogfights
