Description
I am not the original creator, this is an edit to solve issues with swapping pylons breaking certain weapons all credits go to the original creator Kimi you can find their stuff and a link to the original below

This mod is standalone and doesn't requires the original version to run

FROM NOW ON, BOTH METRIC AND IMPERIAL VARIANTS ARE THE SAME MOD.
You can swap between units systems with user actions.


Objectives:
- Enhace targeting systems, navigation, situational awareness and instrumented flight capabilities.
- Enhance Immersion.

Features:
- Helmet mounted displays for all Bluefor and Independent helicopters.
- Both metric and nautical units variants are included.
- Enhanced turrets for gunships and recon helicopters, which include: various levels of zoom, film grain effect in dayTV mode, ground stabilization and new UI.
- "Forward looking" total velocity vectors (flight path markers).
- Weapons aim where they should.
- Weapons enhancements include: 2000rpm and 4000 rpm setting for the m134 miniguns and ripple settings for DAR rockets (single, ripple 2, ripple 4). Removed to solve incompatibilities.
- Removes certain GUI elements such as airframe damage, fuel status (included in the actual HMD), weapon crosshairs, and magic radar from non-radar capable helicopters.

Uh okay, thanks

It's been far too long since I looked at the code to confidently state, What you can do is look at the RHS/CUP compatibility patches and reverse engineer from that.
EricJ 13 Mar @ 9:25am 
Yeah I have his old code, but I may need you to integrate it, or not. I have to look at your stuff and see how I can manage to get it working. Like can I specify classnames for the HMD so it'll work on specified helos?
TomoKIN  [author] 13 Mar @ 8:29am 
@EricJ As long as appropriate credits are given Its fine, I believe Kimi has given their blessing in the past for re-purposing the code as long as its credited.
EricJ 13 Mar @ 8:06am 
Also another question. Is it possible to integrate the Ghost Hawk and Hellcat HMDs in my own helicopter mod since I'm using outdated (but still works) HMD code? I like how you did it and was looking to update my HMDs.

Okay thanks!

@EricJ I didn't create the original code, I merely fixed errors in it that were introduced in one of the Pylon updates. You'd have to reach out to Kimi for anything regarding that.
EricJ 27 Feb @ 8:20am 
Do you by any chance have any OPFOR (like the Orca or Kajman) HMDs in the works? I need an OFPOR HMD and maybe if you could do one for me? I need it for my helo pack and I can't adapt the HMD stuff from those helicopters into my own OPFOR helicopter.

@Grand Mentos compats should be working, I only tested CUP and MELB once when I originally made the fix so theres potential for them to have broken but innate support should be there. RHS I have frequently used over the last few months and can confirm works.
Grand Mentos 4 Aug, 2024 @ 11:05pm 
just wondering, does this work with the compat's (rhs, cup, gm) as well?
