I know alot of people would like it. I'm personally to new to the scene but I hope this gets some decent responds.

Hey mate,

Could you make it so in Arma 2 that people and vehicles show up as white like in the Apache video footage or VBS 2?

Btw, my compliments to the Apache addon, I think you guys released the nr 1. addon for Arma, bar none!

The UAV uses the FLIR we have in ARMA2. That FLIR is being worked on im sure from a couple of people. As you know it has WHOT/BHOT even though not perfect FLIR. With some time this could possibly be made better. Lets give the guys some time to work. :)

Thanks, I forgot Soul send me the script, real life hasstles had prevented me from looking to it and I forgot that I have it in my pm. Scratch this please.

Been doing a bit of work on it myself for my upcoming F117A. Is quite simple to implement (as its already all there in ARMA2) and the post processing part of the engine is very customizable.

Fortran if I may ask, how did you implement it on the Cobra?

At the moment I am just simply adding a new user action to the vehicle config and using that to trigger an SQF file with the FLIR code.

Sure,

Add this to the AH-1Z config:

class UserActions
       {
           // FLIR
           class FlirON
           {
               displayName = "FLIR ON"
               position = ""; 
               radius = 5; 
               condition = "(player == gunner this) && (alive this)";
               statement="this execVM ""\pathtoscript\scriptname.sqf""";
               onlyForPlayer = true;
};
};

Create a new SQF file in the same directory or in a new addon (target it in the statement line in the action above ^)

In the SQF file create this:

setaperture 24;
ppColor = ppEffectCreate ["ColorCorrections", 1999];
ppColor ppEffectEnable false;
ppColor ppEffectAdjust [1, 1, 0, [1, 1, 1, 0], [1, 1, 1, 0.0], [1, 1, 1, 1.0]];
ppColor ppEffectCommit 0;

ppBlur = ppEffectCreate ["dynamicBlur", 505];
ppBlur ppEffectEnable false;  
ppBlur ppEffectAdjust [.5];
ppBlur ppEffectCommit 0;

ppInversion = ppEffectCreate ['colorInversion', 2555];
ppInversion ppEffectEnable false;
ppInversion ppEffectAdjust [1,1,1];
ppInversion ppEffectCommit 0;

ppGrain = ppEffectCreate ["filmGrain", 2005];
ppGrain ppEffectEnable false;
ppGrain ppEffectAdjust [0.02, 1, 1, 0, 1];
ppGrain ppEffectCommit 0;

Only problem is the FLIR effect is still enabled when leaving the chopper, but I am sure somebody could fix that quite simply by triggering the following script when the player leaves the helicopter: (can also be used to add a new "FLIR OFF" action type)

setaperture -1;
ppEffectDestroy ppColor;
ppEffectDestroy ppBlur;
ppEffectDestroy ppInversion;
ppEffectDestroy ppGrain;

Oh, YES!!! I will test this tomorrow when coming back from my holiday. Can you provide an exact example how to get it working for the attack helicopter as the read me is kinda slim for newcomers. Great work!

Thanks!

All I can say is WOW, you wanted FLIR, you got it. Please provide detailed data how to use this script as alot of persons are new. Binding the FLIR to the Q, E and R key doesn't seem ideal..., any option to change.

This is one hell of an Addon!!! Great work!!!

Please provide the info to apply it to any vehicle being the driver or gunner, thanks!

Nice job!

Now we wait for ACE2 to hopefully get it implemented into the mod. :)
