adijaga2 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 as i said some posts above, it will take a long time until release if nobody helps me with testing and translating. I can help you with testing, for translating you can use translate.google.com for example.

Killatomate Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 (edited) Beta Test since nobody reported to test compatibility with patch 1.030 and mods (filecheckfix 1.030) while helicopter testing is already completed, beta testing is closed.

kasakka Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 1.08 definitely works in 1.0.3.0, just like it did in 1.0.2.0. No problems there. Installed all files and replaced filelist.pak. I use the mod along with the Ingame Trainer and R-A-G-D-O-L-L mod without problems. I hope that for the next one the damage is toned down a bit. It's mostly fine for collisions, but the wheels get blown out a bit too easily when outrunning cops. Maybe take down the collision damage just a little bit and the wheel damage a bit more so you don't constantly have to switch cars because their wheels have given out. For games having totally realistic damage etc is usually nowhere near as fun as if the cars can take a bit of punishment and mistakes.

Daniel_Von_Rommel Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I can't beta test for you as I play with GTA 1.0.2, but I can give you the save game. Here you go http://download.gta-expert.com/index.php?a...ownload&id=1950 It's from some italian site, just press "Download", got it by googling. It's after the mission "lure". Please do tell me if it's correct, I don't have time to try it myself right now. Feel free to name me in the "thanks to" section.

Killatomate Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 (edited) list of helicopter missions: Chapter 3: "dust off" UL Paper Mission 3: chase a helicopter and steal it (not tested yet) "paper trail" UL Paper Mission 4: chase a helicopter and shoot it down (works fine) Chapter 5: "out of commission" final mission: chase a helicopter and shoot it down (works fine) Edit: looks like helicopters in missions are not controlled by AI and therefore are not affected by the new handling.

Killatomate Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 Many people don't understand they must remove vanilla filelist.pak and replace it with your modded one. That file contains the handling within i have a user complaining that the mod doesnt change the handling (patch 1.030). i told him to replace the filelist.pak but that didnt work. any suggestions? maybe trying the "filecheckfix 1.030" mod?

It should, technically, work fine though . . . since that is where the hidden handling file was located. Maybe he just can't tell the difference. About the handling . . . it feels very heavy, very real. Auto correction is still present however, so that the helicopter returns to hover mode as soon as you let off the keys/thumbstick. Flying upside down is impossible, as the heli can't spin the blades backward . . . sucks Doing flips and such is awesome though. Also during landing, the heli tends to lean backward and the skids go inside the ground. I like it, very precise once you get the hang out it.

Auto correction is still present however, so that the helicopter returns to hover mode as soon as you let off the keys/thumbstick. EDIT: i think you were talking about the center force at high speeds. thats a realistic effect and caused by the wings on the tail. at high speeds helicopters fly like planes. Also during landing, the heli tends to lean backward and the skids go inside the ground. thats a problem of the default game. i tried to change the "suspension" of the skids but wasnt able to improve it as much as i wanted to. i spent 10 hours on the stupid skids... I like it, very precise once you get the hang out it. yeah i like it too. especially fun if you use a speedometer. now all i want is joystick support and an altimeter mod. i really want to know my height above sea level!!!

EDIT: i think you were talking about the center force at high speeds. thats a realistic effect and caused by the wings on the tail. at high speeds helicopters fly like planes. Well, I played Warrock for a while and became pretty good with the helicopters. You had to fly with the mouse, and for a FPS, the handling was pretty realistic. Anyway, from my understanding, the heli should not level out when you release the keys/thumstick. I'm probably wrong, though, as a mouse is different from a thumbstick/key. Anyway, I was thinking, can you perhaps put out a "performance" model with more thrust and less weight? And, if possible, have the blades be able to spin backwards. Like an RC helicopter.

Killatomate Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 from my understanding, the heli should not level out when you release the keys/thumstick. its not a difference in flight models but a difference in control input. in most flight simulations the "pilot stick" stays in the same pitch position when you release the key, so that the aircraft's rudders stay in the same position too. however, in GTA IV the pilot stick, rotor blades and tail rudders return to center position when the key is released. thats why i want joystick input can you perhaps put out a "performance" model with more thrust and less weight? And, if possible, have the blades be able to spin backwards. Like an RC helicopter. i dont think reversed thrust is possible. more agile helicopters sounds like fun. but i have to focus on other things now.

Daniel_Von_Rommel Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 When you ask something, and a person delivers, it is good manners to say "thanks". While making up excuses (them actually being real or not is irrelevant to my point) is considered bad manners. Which is why I usually refuse to help people. because people are...

Daniel_Von_Rommel Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I DID test those savegames, I meant I did not have time to test if the handling ruined the choppers.

Rob.Zombie Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I got a great idea. Have you made that, so it'll really take time to take off. Like in IV you just get in helicopter press w and you're in the air. Like it'd realistic if there'd be a warm up time before you can take off.

[...] there'd be a warm up time before you can take off. i dont know how to do that and i think it would annoy most players because cops would always manage to catch you before you can take off. it would prevent you from stealing guarded helicopters like the annihilator (blackhawk). i have patch 3 installed and would like to test the helicopter handling. im sorry, helicopter tests are already completed. keyboard controls, gamepad controls, AI and heli chasing missions work fine. further sharing of my handling just increases chance of somebody leaking the files.

Killatomate Posted April 22, 2009 Author Share Posted April 22, 2009 default weapons it really annoyed me that you couldnt take out police helicopters with your AK47 because of the limited weapon range (60m). i ended up tweaking the weapons... weapon range is now realistic so that you can take down helicopters (AK47/M4 range is now 270m instead of 60m). damage is slightly increased, killing a cop now takes 4 bullets instead of 5. (you hate when they get up after you shot them, dont you?) M4 damage is slightly less than AK47, in return M4's rate of fire has been increased from 430 to 500 rpm. should i add improved weapons to the mod?

kasakka Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 1.08 definitely works in 1.0.3.0, just like it did in 1.0.2.0. No problems there. Installed all files and replaced filelist.pak. some users reported that the trucks were as fast as sports cars when using this mod with patch 1.030 can someone with 1.030 please test the trucks? (they are suppoesed to take 18-34 seconds for 0-100 kph) Trucks seem to work as they should. I'm not sure but it seems that there may be far fewer bikes and a sh*tload more scooters going around, at least when using sportscars yourself. I always seem to stumble upon scooters parked but not any motorbikes. It's a bit annoying that GTA's car spawning is limited to certain cars appearing more depending on what you're driving. I'm all for improved weapons. I tried to tweak the shotguns myself a bit but didn't find a nice equilibrium where they're pretty good for taking down cops but not so powerful that you'll be dead in a jiffy when cops use them.
