Summary0000809: Mi 24 HUD
Description
This is a request to make the Mi-24 HIND more deadly!

Pilot's HEADS UP DISPLAY

Seeing as there is no radar in RHS version is there any chance that the pilot's static HUD could be replaced with a reflex holo sight? It was done years ago in Arma 2 by the CWR2 team. The Gunner's crosshair's travel across the pilot's HUD letting him know where to point the nose and line up for the missiles.

Crosshair "+" target for Cannon and an "O" for Missiles. (There is a video for it on Youtube)
 
I think this would add to the model and make the Hind a bit more dangerous and interesting when playing single player with AI gunner.

It's quite a simple HUD but if it isn't possible, then please, add some kind n00b crosshair like the tanks have in 3rd person or even a lock on tone for the missiles or something? I have no idea what the AI gunner is looking at until he fires the cannon from close range.

A zoom level on the gunners optics would be very useful too.

And finally a custom engine sound similar the CWR2 model? ATM it's the same as the vanilla Kajman.

Ta ;)

You are totally wrong here. First they are aiming in highes realistic level. Mi-24 is a bit old chopper, i dont know all features of it, but this HUD should be in Superhind model, and and dnt know that Russian army uses them otherwise. More zoom level in gunners optic would be usefull, but read a little before such reports, if this sight have that zoom in real.

Also Mi-48 Kajman have totally diferent aiming ATGM - in mi-24 it happen manually by gunner (where he aiming, there missle goes) and in mi-48 missle goes to locked target automaticly, while gunner can aim somewhere else.

Engine sound is very realistic and most close to real one - i hear them very often, beacuse i live near Balice airport, where is lot of military airplaes and choppers.

 I'm not expert in flying stuff, but i'm sure Mi-24 have enough good arms in mod, ai should use it a little better - they are using ATGM not so often as they should, often they are rotating whole chopper, by side to enemy and crew got killed, beacuse too thin glass. IN real rounds from M4, M249 and all small arms, should ricochete from this glass.

Also whole armor is too thick - its codename is "flying tank" woth some reason - its too easy to destroy engine in this, aslo should have filters shields on engine

It's a suggestion pal so wind your neck in ok?

I'm not asking for a SuperHind (although that would be nice.)
Just an updated version for the Russian forces.
The mod is set in the late 2000's not late 1980's so the weapon's aiming systems should've had had some kind of upgrade by now.
 
Maybe RHS team will put the Mi-24PN, Mi-24VM or the Mi-35M in the game eventually who knows?
 
I'm sure it works fine for Multi Player types but as a SP user it would be nice to have some kind of aid when targeting the enemy that's all.

Again wrong, but its your opinion. First - vanilla game is setted in late 2000, RHS mod is setted in present times. They are aiming in reality, so OK, write request, but it will be closed soon. Read, find sources (as proof) that Russian Forces is using This version of vehicle. Problem is, that most cool cehicles in Russia are prroduced for export only (Like T-90MS). I'm not expert in choppers, but i'll try to find something. I remember topic named CMA MI-28, and there was writed, it will be in RHS (in VTN as well). For now, project is dead since years and all we got is Mi-24 and Ka-52.

EDIT: Russians seems to using Mi-35M and MI-28N.

Yeh we may make other more modern choppers but Mi-24 as is now is as it should be.
