So is there a small chance for the integration of HTR? You wrote at Hovercontrol that RotorLIB is using lookup tables like FSX? Oh man, I thought that it was more advanced then that. So it would be much better if we had the possibility to use an external FM ( like HTR). This maybe is the case for A3?

Sounds great Fred! Will try it soon.

My tip would be to enable Autohover for landings and when exact hovering (for sling loads) is neccessary.:) With "autohover on" you can still doing control inputs.

So, deinstalled ToH (with keep user files/missions)(do not want to lose my career progress!) and installed it again. Same problems as before. For the "No entry'config.bin/CfgInGameUI/MPTable.shadow" error I found this one on the Wiki: "No entry'config.bin/CfgInGameUI/MPTable.shadow" (on start-up) - try patching A2 & OA to the latest versions [2] But it didn`t helped me. That 'Error compiling pixel shader PSSpecularAlpha:0' is also still there.:( My ToH start line looks as follow(don`t care about that mistake I`ve made with the installer with double ToH in the path, I know): "D:\Win7Games\Take On Helicopters\Take On Helicopters\takeonh.exe" "-mod=D:\Win7Games\Arma2;D:\Win7Games\Arma2;D:\Win7Games\Take On Helicopters\Take On Helicopters\takeonh.exe;Rearmed" Arma Version is: 1.62.95248 My ToH rpt file: http://sharesend.com/sskm0qw9 Tried that arma2 launcher version 1.4.1.0 but do not have a clue how I can start ToH with it.:confused:

I have the exact problem like ChrisD. After my Arma:OA2 quited to work. I completely reinstalled it and applied the latest patch. Arma2 now works but when starting ToH I got the same error: 'config.bin/cfgGameUI/.....' pressed OK then got a 2nd error 'Error compiling pixel shader PSSpecularAlpha:0' The program then stopped. When uninstall Rearmed, ToH will work normal, but I can`t continue the career because of content missing errors. So reinstall ToH will not work? So better to use that community launcher, will it work then?

Thanks for explanation. Yes, I saw the tutorials for camera movements. I thought that examples would help me to though. I think I can start to look into it now, since the record function now is working. I mistakenly typed Heli1 in description and not in the variable name row. Chladic88, I think youre vid lead me to it.:)

@Thromp: Thanks. Don`t want to fly the mission. I just want to look in the files, for the camera entries. Explanation is ok, allready know what to do from some tutorials I have read.:) When I only get that damn record function to work...:(

@Thromp: Thanks for the testvid! Can you please upload this mission somewhere(including path, ini files/s)? Just want to see how you did the camera angels and so on. @Chladic88: Hmm, strange. Can`t see what you did wrong. I do exactly the same like you do, but for me it aint start to capture. I may have to reinstall ToH.

I also experiment with that scripting stuff at the moment. We may can exchange informations about our findings.:) I want to record my path in a mission with sling loading and using different camera angels.

AFAIK, you do not need the function module in ToH. It`s loaded automatically in ToH.

Make sure youre using the analogue throttle settings. I to have a Warthog. Will post my settings when at home.

I feel youre pain and I have the same impressions like you have. Though, I bought it and I learned to overlook the worse things and just started to enjoy the career mode. I thinks it`s very well done and it have atmosphere (most game/simulations lacks). Just use auto hover function more often and you will start to enjoy. Yes, the helicopters sometime behave really weird and it seems that no input can stop that behavior.

Hi, I want to record my flight path and hon0 directed me to the BIS_fnc_UnitCapture function. Though can`t bring that thing to work. After calling Radio>Alpha it instantly says: "Capture Complete". Here is my test mission, please have a look what`s wrong:

Got my PM hon0?

Congratulations! I try it every once in a while, but after absend for some weeks I have to relearn my reactions/input/adjustments again.

I got -100 when Throttle is full forward, 0 when in the middle position and 100 in the full back position. I think I need 0 (0 collective) when in full forward and 100 (means full collective) in full back position, not? How to set it up properly? Thanks.

Any news on Final 1.06? Is there another DLC planed or what can we expect in the future for ToH?

Hehe, nice herding mission BeePee! Can you leave some words about external camera and flight recording? Or is there a Wiki page?

4:04.434 Wow, nice! Would like to see how you did it. Especialy these rings nearby that high skyscraper.:icon_rolleyes: I recorded my try via fraps, have to edit and upload it to YT. Thanks for the answers regarding record and replay. I better wait for a interface, don`t know a thing about scripting and functions and the like...:icon_frown:

I´ve just beaten my best time on TT01. Still so far away...:j: BTW: Is there a way to record a track and to playback it with different camera angels?

Before NC DLC I don`t care about these Time Trials, but with that music... Well, my first trys: 3:35.865 seems really hard to beat.

Wow, just saw the NC release trailer! The music got me jumping in front of my PC!:bounce3: Nice to see the copilot`s hand moving to the music.

(I don`t know how far discussing about another product and advertising is allowed, but the moderators will eventualy stop me if necessary.) The "trick" about the Ka-50 and A-10C IS the FM, I would say(sure DM and system depth is another). They have a table based WITH detailed simulation of surfaces(i.e. X-Plane also use surface simulation, also RoF). Remember that vid?: Wind is blowing over the surfaces of the blades. Never seen something similar in PC simulations. Another point is, that you actually can see that the whole model is affected by mass and weight. When reloading the Ka-50 on one side you can see the heli is tilting to this side. When landing the Ka-50 on a road and let a truck driving into the tail (for example) of the heli the Ka-50 will be moved by the truck physicaly correct. Have you flown the Ka-50 without the pitch, bank and lateral dampeners (aka Autopilot, the AP channels)? I think the main reason why the Ka-50 is so stable are the dampeners, which are a stability augmentation system. I often accidentaly forget to engage these and begin to exagerating my control inputs leading to a unstable flight until I engage these APs. I think the main issue is still that all objects in BIs engine didn`t have the right mass. I.e. the trucks behave the same like tanks and contrariwise. Therefore I´m looking forward to Arma3 and it`s physic system. With Rotorlib the physics for the blades and all other surfaces will be calculated, but maybe will be simplified due to BI engine limitations or something else, don`t know.
