Ac 130 spectre firing11/18/2023 If you don't I've written a pretty good sim script myself that's dying to get tested :) It's still in beta, since I'm too lazy and too busy to actually refine it, but worked 99% so far in my tests. Poke around in Editor's Depot and you might find some. There are however some script that simulate an AC130 attack. I don't know if anyone actually tried it, but so far I saw no such release. One discussion I seemed to remember, offered the solution of creating an invisible vehicle with gunner only and attaching it to the bottom of the plane through a SetPos script. In either case you can't actually point and fire with the mouse as if you were a gunner on vehicle, which would result in horrible and frustrating targeting. you control the movement of the camera by clicking on buttons on the dialogue screen or at best by using a control script similar to camera.sqs. The problem with these types of scripts is that they are all dialogue based. Hopefully it is possible and someone will take up the challenge (*fingers crossed*) I just wanted to post my ideas here and see what other people think about it. Honestly, if I had the knowledge and skills to create something like this then I would already be working on it. I know this can be fixed/changed for a moving object because numerous other addons allow a player to view a camera feed from a moving object (UAV addons come to mind:)) However, the imagery is taken from an overhead view (as would be expected from a satellite). After looking at the scripting, of which I have very limited knowledge, I think it would be possible to camcreate an explosion on the tracked object thereby simulating an AC-130 round. The really niffty thing is that it allows for tracking of an object/human. This addon simulates overhead satellite coverage. For example, the addon with the most potential is this Satellite Script Addon (pictured below) Let me say that I believe that it would be possible to do this because numerous other people have already created addons that are similar to this idea. This video captures the principle of what I'm trying to suggest: Instead of trying to build an AC-130 and thereby try to by-pass the game limitations, we instead let the player control a targeting computer. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, here is a video of something similar from ARMA: ARMA AC-130 Simulation However, I was wondering how hard and plausible it would be to make an AC-130 gun cam? What I am suggesting is the creation of something along the lines of a targeting computer. I must say that I was quite disappointed when I found out that a true AC-130 is impossible because the Operation Flashpoint engine does not support side mounted/turrent'd airplanes. I suppose my intrest in this well armed beasty has been sparked by recent movies (Transformers!) and video games (Modern Warfare. ![]() Since the day that I installed Operation Flashpoint on my computer, I've looked and looked for an AC-130 Spectre addon.
