Title: ACAMS Component Pack
Post by: ACAMS on July 06, 2010, 07:01:54 PM
I have a massive component pack I need to release, BUT I need help! (and that is only if the majority wants to see it)
 
It needs to be balanced
some things need tweeking
 
I need to finish the AH-64 Apache Attack Helicopter and CB is probably the only one that can help, because he got the Jeep looking presentable
 
Should I finish it, or not?
 
 
I will need people to help balance it (strength vs weight)
 
Will I get help?

Are you trying to balance it for stock or for DSL? Either way, I would be willing to give it a go. I have several efficiency formulas that I use when making bots.

Sure, release it. BTW, do you use the official exporter or dummee's / Slider_V's exporter?

I would like to think DSL is balanced to Stock....so I would also like to be balanced to stock! (or DSL....whatev as long as it is not like I have most of my stuff)
 
I need help from Madiaba (the 50 cal machine gun is not up to par) and help from Clickbeetle (forgot what to do to make the AH 64 Apache attack chopper work right)
 
 
Then I need help balancing the components weight vs hit points (as soon as I get the chopper and 50 cal right I will send out to beta testers/balancers)

Oh.. How'd I miss this?  Duh...
 
ACAMS: Just send'r over with instruction(s).

Thyrus: Yea, that 'Mad Max' idea we threw back and forth before.  You're right, it would be cool, and it can be AI-ed. Competing with that would be fun....

I agee, Sage. 
This is ACAMS' plane, w/ Machinegun, tweeked and AI-ed a while back:
ACAMS plane AI-1 (http://www.madiaba.gametechmods.com/VIDS/ACAMS%20plane%20AI-1.wmv)   
ACAMS' components are perfect for this.
 
BTW: One could also put a 'turreted (SOW)' Machinegun on the plane. :mrgreen:
