Please fix the key so that we can use it on our servers.

Any chance that you could add support for the CUP MH-47E? CUP is listed as supported, but I for some reason this particular helicopter doesn't seem to be supported. Thanks in advance!

In this mod, the KEY sign is not working correctly

Please fix so we can install and use it in our servers! It's looking amazing and adds a ton of playability for us !!

And please inform me when fixed so we can add it to our modlist!

Any chance that you could add support for this SOAR MH-47E mod?

Division225 2 Jun, 2021 @ 7:44am 
when i place the heli like u have in the water and turn the engine off it sinks. The same heli that u used .
crub  [author] 15 Apr, 2021 @ 3:41pm 
Try doing it for the pelican class itself, not the base.
IAmCalledJay 15 Apr, 2021 @ 9:29am 
I'm trying to apply what you did with this mod to the OPTRE pelican, and it's not working for me. I added the waterLeakiness = 0.1; to the base class of the pelican, just like you did for the huron. Any ideas?
Rogal Dorn 12 Apr, 2021 @ 8:08pm 
You may be able to make a helicopter float but it will only ever float upside down. Think of where the weight is.
Nobutora 13 Mar, 2021 @ 4:29am 
why is this not in vanilla game? it's so stupid that immediately when it hits the water it explodes lmao
crub  [author] 5 Mar, 2021 @ 4:26pm 
It floats like a boat, it has buoyancy.
Vectif 4 Mar, 2021 @ 6:17am 
do you have to hover the helicopter on the water for it to float? or can you still sink it by continuing to descend?
crub  [author] 20 Dec, 2020 @ 5:16pm 
rip
DISTURBED_uk1 20 Dec, 2020 @ 4:22am

King.sqf 15 Dec, 2020 @ 2:54pm 
and @[TW]Aaren is sinkin'!
King.sqf 15 Dec, 2020 @ 2:52pm 
if youre not floating with this mod, youre sinking in real life.
[TW]Aaren 14 Dec, 2020 @ 7:42pm 
@GamesByChris
Thanks for understanding cheers :cozycrashfish:
crub  [author] 14 Dec, 2020 @ 7:28pm 
You're right I'll give you credit where credit is due.
[TW]Aaren 14 Dec, 2020 @ 7:10pm 
At least you need to mention where did you get this idea or parameters in the description
you can't say that you discover the config by yourself
This feature took me about 3~4 months to make it come true then you only just took two days
That feels like my effort is get stepped over
and CUP CH-47 is already can float
crub  [author] 14 Dec, 2020 @ 6:23pm 
You're right I did like the idea of the Huron floating from his mod, but I didn't copy his "code" (configs aren't code), I just looked up the config value that controls floating and did it myself. That's it.
[TW]Aaren 14 Dec, 2020 @ 3:12pm 
@ Jaedi-_-
No ,he Did Not work with me, I don’t even know him
Divine Boaz 14 Dec, 2020 @ 11:05am

Isn't it kind of suspicious that Advanced Aerodynamics came out with floating Chinooks, and then this mod comes out shortly after? The original author @[TW]Aaren even says this is his code.
ek9chan 13 Dec, 2020 @ 9:34pm 
dope mod ♡
Mick 13 Dec, 2020 @ 10:50am 
Now i`m getting the key fault ? it`s added to mod line and key is uploaded, :)

Even the icon in mods list is showing green for the server, :)
BremerBierbude 13 Dec, 2020 @ 3:24am 
Found a solution. This is NOT a problem related to your mod ;-) My startparameter modlist was to long! steamProtocolMaxDataSize=1024 in my server.cfg fixed it!
crub  [author] 12 Dec, 2020 @ 7:25pm 
@BremerBierbude, remember to include the mod in server launch parameters.

example:

-mod=@RotaryFloatation
crub  [author] 12 Dec, 2020 @ 7:15pm 
@BremerBierbude. It's not possible for it be just in the mission file since it modifies the config value for the helicopters. I honestly don't know why you're having troubles. Sorry man.
BremerBierbude 12 Dec, 2020 @ 3:06am 
Hey Chris, thanks for fixing the signature. The problem still exists when i load this mod :-( if its possible to put it directly into the mission-file, let me know ;-)
Moonbreak2000 11 Dec, 2020 @ 7:08pm 
Seeing this name in my modlist will make me very happy everytime I scroll through it
crub  [author] 11 Dec, 2020 @ 6:46pm 
Alright you guys win. I changed the name.
crub  [author] 11 Dec, 2020 @ 6:46pm 
I fixed the signature file @BremerBierbude.
BremerBierbude 11 Dec, 2020 @ 11:33am 
Hmm, when i try to use it on my Antistasi Server the Arma Launcher reports that my Server has NO mods loaded an the Mod Info could not be downloaded correctly from the Server... Key File, Startparameter, everything is fine..
[TW]Aaren 11 Dec, 2020 @ 1:34am 
What The Hell
These are my stuffs😟
LTDOGOOP 11 Dec, 2020 @ 1:27am 
please rotary floatary
Anticitizen 10 Dec, 2020 @ 9:26pm 
I concur, rotary floatary please
LT Flashback 10 Dec, 2020 @ 6:36pm 
I petition to rename this mod to Rotary Floatary.2
blarcy 10 Dec, 2020 @ 5:57pm 
Rotary Floatary... god that hurt but I love it
Thievishlogin 10 Dec, 2020 @ 4:36pm 
I petition to rename this mod to Rotary Floatary.
Viper1Zero 10 Dec, 2020 @ 2:50pm 
Oh hell yeah.
boob queefries 10 Dec, 2020 @ 1:27pm 
@DeWees It can with the engines off its sealed and is buoyant enough to obviously it can be submerged
DeWeese 10 Dec, 2020 @ 1:02pm 
but, they can't float, only reason why the seal video the chinook aint going under is because
IT'S LIKE USING THOSE BIG BLADES TO LIKE HOVER OVER SOME WATER?!??!?!? unbelievable right?
crub  [author] 10 Dec, 2020 @ 12:42pm 
I was referring to the Mohawk when I say it's unrealistic btw. I know the Chinook can float that's whole reason I made the mod, but I thought it was cool to make the Mohawk float as well.
Taco__ 10 Dec, 2020 @ 11:43am 
so if this guy truly was in an Armed forces that uses the CH-47 wouldnt he know this?
boob queefries 10 Dec, 2020 @ 11:37am 
the chinook can float for 30 mins while the wheels are under the water
eNoble-US 10 Dec, 2020 @ 11:03am 
@Karma 87 Thanks for your service. We really need people flexing their military service online.

Weirdo.
EnterTheGungeoneer 10 Dec, 2020 @ 10:17am 
Does this mod work with the Advanced Aero Effects mod? It also makes the CH-67 float but doesn't allow swimming into it or the RHS and CUP helis.
