I'm unable to access the AH-64 HUD because the pilot does not spawn with the correct helmet

This is a fucking great scenario. More maps pls! With RHS support!

Thank you Sir!

Doesn't want to load for me. Any fixes?

Happens when enemy vehicles are in a sector where your forces a fighting for. Transport has more priority than cas, so it's just a matter of time.

When am I supposed to get CAS requests? I only get transport

Without more information I can only say: That's sad.

does not open in multiplayer

Thanks a lot ! Managed to do my mission with that :D

Hi,
How did you manage to change the ground units spawning ? In the AI Spawn module I can only choose between vanilla faction. I'm trying to do one with Unsung myself, first time "modding"

Great work, lots of fun. I actually like the fact that the squads move out to seize the objectives, the war goes on, if you participate or not.

Two things that I think are missing:
- it's too easy, a way to increase the difficulty, for those that want it, would be nice.
- a way for players to gun for other players (in the Gunships or as Door Gunners).

A way to be part of the infantry squads for those that want it (even just as a grunt not a squad leader) might also be interesting.

I'll have a look at it in the next days :)

This is really nice work, I'm really enjoying the mission so far! Would it be possible to add the newly introduced Black Hawk variants from RHS into this one? They've added dynamic loadouts and you can now mount the FFAR pods on the ESSS.

It's the normal "ground support" behaviour concerning sector capturing. And if the units won't capture sectors, it wouldn't be a good Coop or SP experience.

IMHO it would be better if infantry spawned and awaited transport at main instead of moving on foot

Did you command firing with ctrl+left mouse?
It's the same controls like always. Ctrl+F -> change gunners weapon, Ctrl+left moust -> Order gunner to fire or, if he has the MG as weapon it switches between fire and don't fire.

Awesome mission! Only problem I've found is it seems AI gunner in AH-64 doesn't want to engage enemies on the ground, whether armored or soft targets.

Keep up the great work!!!

Everything's fine. I understood everything, so no problem :)
I'm also no native english speaker ;)

i understand, i will soon test your Liberation mission so!.. (sorry for my poor inglish!:))

No, I mean "That's the way BI intended the gamemode". Nothing more.
If it would mean that BI wouldn't want that someone does modifications to it, I couldn't have created these missions.
I won't implement a "additional ground forces" possibility in the gamemode, because my focus concerning coding is on Liberation and I created this missions just as "Pilot trainings" with a variation of assets and maps.
But feel free to get the code etc. via GitHub (link in the description) and add everything you want. Everything is free to use, as you can see at the license :).

"It's the way BI intended the gamemode." You mean bohemia dont want we make some modifications? I think that the game mode is really good because you MUST play as pilot and move quickly your troops in order to win, but why dont give the ability to players to make ground fight at the same time?? That doesn't change the spirit of your mission.

The kind what unit spawn is random. Each minute will a group spawn for each side.
the group can be (one is picked random):
Ghost
Nomad
Hydra
AT Team
AA Team
Motorized AT Team
1 HMG Car
1 GMG Car
1 Wheeled APC with footmobiles
1 Tracked APC with footmobiles
1 MBT

For smaller areas you could use the vanilla BI support missions.

from what i've played there's not much combat that goes on between each side. i've had to do one medevac and one air support, and the rest of the game has mostly been playing leapfrog while the other team takes points our team has abandoned.
would a parameter with less zones to fight over and more nomads & hydras than ghosts make things a bit more confrontational?

The Aircraft is no real necessary asset of this gamemode. I even thought about removing it again.
And you can only leave the helicopter if you land at the resupply points in the base (tied to the gamemode)
And as this gamemode is for the aspect of flying troops and give support via helicopter, you can't use the gunner slot or command any AI. It's the way BI intended the gamemode.

can you take control of the apache gunner in anyway possible? Me and my friend would really like that.

Another thing, why you dont put an aircraft who dont need DLC on the airport?

Excellent mission! We cannot desembark once we choose a chopper?? Can you put AI command abilitie for humans players? (in that way the game take more interest when we play alone against 2 or more humans, or we can fight on ground if the chopper is broken and call for air support..)

Malden is the next Map and will be there in one or two days.
Concerning the "only COOP" Mode.... I can't promise anything on this, but I'll have a look for a suitable and lightweight implementation of something like that. But basically the most time concerning coding is spent for Liberation atm.

@Wyqer: Me and my friends really like this gamemode as a fun training for both combat and non-combat transport operations. That said, I wonder if you would consider a dedicated COOP version of this, or perhaps a COOP version parameter (to avoid having to make a blufor/opfor vers). By coop vers i mean that players would be on one side, and the side with no players would get an increase in # units or vehicles or the like, and possibly a scattering of enemy attack chopper spawns, just to increase difficulty. But otherwise there would be no change to how the mission plays out. Anyway, regardless of whether you make one or not, this is a great scenario, and i would love to see an RHS Malden 2035 port of this!

@Wyqer yeah I understand that's why you put the full game mode description in there, which makes sense. I had read it as "Here's what the mission adds", which was my misinterpretation of the intent.

@Sniper
Yeah you should play it as local LAN MP. I'll add the information about it just now to prevent any confusion. So you can play it as SP if you host it as local LAN MP game from your server browser. Sorry for confusion.

@Pierre
I personally thought that this mode is well known like "End Game" or "Zeus", etc.
And the description part in the description of the workshop object is meant as a "what can you expect" and not as a "I personally have done this and this and that" :).
Even if you start the mission it shows on the top the gamemode "Support" (like "Coop", "CTI") etc. And the naming of the mission is choosen that way by the reason that the official missions from BI are also named like "Support Pyrgos", "Support XYZ".
I don't know what I should do more, as I also don't say anything like "I made all what's inside here by myself". I even don't know what's exactly the "problem" is. But I would really like to welcome you on our discord (text chat only) for further talks about your concerns. Maybe we can figure out what you're exactly worried about and how we could prevent that.

@Abburo, I didn't intend for it to be demotivating. I think adding non-vanilla support and extending existing missions/gamemodes is great. It was just how the description was written sounds like it is a new gamemode, to me at least. Seems that way for a others as well, who are interested in the concept/mechanics. I suppose it's just the nature of the ARMA framework, no need to get overly aggressive.

@Sniper Team Delta (STD) I think respawning only works in multiplayer so start the mission on your server (Server browser - Host server)

Should I restart?

It jsut says I died
No respawn message or anything

How does respawning work?

@PierreOfTheFrench: You obviously are not aware about overall massive contribution of @Wyqer for Arma world. So to clarify, he is one of the best and most responsive mission designers with a great portfolio arround here. So please, just don't come up with this kind of demotivating statements... more over, Wyqer's work is public....

* Added: Script to delete empty choppers which are left on the resupply areas for more than 3 minutes.
* Added: Server log debug output.
* Added: Mapmarker in the bottom left with server fps and ground units count.
* Added: 2 Spectator slots.

KNOWN ISSUE:
When a helicopter gets deleted at a resupply area, a radio message with "helo down" will be send.
But this won't lower your tickets. It's just a kind of misleading information which I can't deactivate for now.

@AGB
Yeah, I would recommend to play it via LAN MP if you want to play it as "SP" :)
And you can only exit the vehicle if you land at a resupply point.

@Pierre
The first sentence. It's the "Ground Support" Gamemode. Besides of that, where is the issue that it's a mission which is built with normal BI provided functionalities? oO

As Vogtivator said, this sounds a lot like the Support series published by BI that's been out since Helicopter DLC. In fact, after playing a quick round it seems identical with the exception of the unit variation. Doesn't seem to be any mention of that in the description...

While playing SP, I landed at base and was unable to exit the helicoper. The one time I crashed, I was also unable to respawn. Do I need to host a LAN server and play SP (no other players joining) for it to work properly?

Like in the description "Gametype: Ground Support" it is build via the ground support game mechanics, yeah. Only in a "larger scale" basically with individual spawn group configs and, of course, besides of the vanilla version for each map a full RHS conversion concerning helicopters and ground units.

This sounds a lot like the Support MP gamemode. Is that what inspired this?

It's no mod. It's a mission. Just start a LAN MP Game or SP and choose the mission.

I really wished this mod would work, it seems like such a good concept

I subscribed to this mod but I dont see it in my mods list

The F-18 is the Jets F-18, yes.
But it's only a "not respawning addition" to the gamemode. That's the reason why I didn't added a dependency to the Jets DLC, as that won't be the truth. You don't need the Jets DLC at all to play this mission, as the focus is on the helicopters and the support.

Requires "Jets" DLC to use the F-18. I dont have the DLC and says "premium content, purchase to use".
¿Maybe is the F-18 from the DLC and not the one from RHS?
If its on purpose the F-18 from the DLC, add it to the requeriments.
Awesome mode btw.
