Ia Trang

[HOBOMAN]

A week ago I was watching the movie We Were Soldiers. If your not familar with the movie, it is about the 7th Air Calvary in Vietnam and the fight for LZ X-Ray in Ia Trang. So, about a day after watching this movie, I though this would be a good battle to recreate in Opflash. I check out Seb Ia Trang and go to the spot marked LZ-Ray. I notice the terrain doesn't look much like the real place (http://www.lzxray.com/overview.htm).

Now I know some people might think I'm crazy but, is it posible that someone has released or is working on a more realistic map?

Thanks
Ps Is any one thinking of making a multi gunned Uh-1?

Not possible in OFP. Engine limitation :/

No it is possible, look at Colonel Klink's boats here:

Just if that same script could work with a helocopter...

There's the pitch/bank problem that you won't solve with flying/not straight (like ships) moving vehicles. Many people tried and many poeple stopped trying, believe them, that's one of the engine limitations we most probably won't overcome

they won't

Basicly, the boat setposses multiple vehicles (the turrest) into the right location, but one cannot "roll" turrets, so it can only be applied to boats.

But back to the point of LZ X-Ray, does anyone know what vietnam mods or addon makers still active that might make it?

What a coincidence, I saw the movie few weeks ago, too.

A nice movie, a bit gory, but good anyway.

First I thought the Chinook at the end was wrong model, but Googled Ch47A few mins ago and... I was wrong. I mixed early Chinooks with Ch-46 Sea Knight.

Multible heli gunner posistions would be possible if you would make two guns on heli and one gunner pos in middle.If you understand me.You know....dummies using guns (dummies would look like real soldiers) and one gunner to use both guns as different weapons.
That would do the trick.

I see what your saying, but theres a slight prob:

bullets, unless createvehicled/camcreated then setvelocity'ed can not shoot out of multiple positions at once
