Community Made Addons » CMA: Mi-28

Replacement or normal unit?

Conf for both. Mike an idea?

Seems not nameSound nor displayName. Could not find any other instance.

Ist is the German or international Version? AllInOne displayName's look hardcoded for me...

I am not sure, how they are converted.

AllInOne and my local version I used for testing are English.

Source of the issue is still unknown. I altered the entry's in the MI-24P config, which shows no effect. I am still missing the entry's called "namesound" in the A1 / OFP config.

It seems that this is handled somewhere, not in the vehicleConfig...

Well there still is, yet only at the general level:

1 nameSound = "veh_TrackedAPC";

Might be related to this definition:

class RadioProtocolEN: RadioProtocolBase

Maybe the stringtable.xml creates a set of names:

While we overwrite the default:
displayName = "$STR_DN_MI24D";

This is defined in the xml:

<Key ID="str_dn_mi24d">
    <German>Mi-24D</German>
    <English>Mi-24D</English>
    <Italian>Mi-24D</Italian>
    <Spanish>Mi-24D</Spanish>
    <French>Mi-24D</French>
    <Czech>Mi-24D</Czech>
    <Russian>??-24?</Russian>
    <Polish>Mi-24D</Polish>
    <Hungarian>Mi-24D</Hungarian>
</Key>

Have you tried talking to the guys that made the F-16 model (http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=5900)? They seem to have avoided the problem.

Well he uses Plane as base class, while we inherit from the Mi24.

I suppose the obvious question here would be is there some kind of "Helicopter" base class you could use instead of the Mi-24?

Well this has several downsides. So not really an option for this
minor naming issue. :(

Set the accuracy so Mi-24 generic displayname won't show up.

Sound name should be changed to "helicopter" or "gunship" if avaiable.

I've done such things for A.C.E. most recently.

Applied in changeset 9f5570d26efa02282a8a46650a478c30ba461419.

I see this issue has been resolved. What was the problem?
You might also want to share it with the guys that made the RAH-66 model(http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=7132), since it's suffering from a similar problem.

It's all about accuracy value. Should be as low as base class that inherits from Helicopter class (i.e. Mi24_Base, AH1_Base)
