i know i'm super late to the party here, but i'm just getting back into arma and just got this mod. My question is can i program this AC-130 to be used as a "CAS" support asset manned by the AI? Such as i call it in, it holds a race track pattern, shoots at the coordinates i give, and then RTB when ammo is depleted?
They have to be set by someone in one of the two sensor positions (IR or TV) using the scroll wheel commands. You can also name a unit as ftm or hm01 etc in the editor to have it auto selected when the mission starts
Curious if there's a way to stop the AI from instantly and completely leveling whatever you set as the target centre? Like, even if there is no enemies it just starts destroying buildings lol.
how do I get ammo for the AC-130 ? it lets me spawn the container but not refill it also how do i get everything to pop up it will not let me do auto pilot or anything like that
Great video but I still can't have an accurate shot from your videos especially the radius and the altitude which makes my bofors and 105mm Howitzer inaccurate only my 25mm Gau-12 is accurate. So Idk the solution here
Sounds like you have a low view distance. You’ll have to increase your view distance in your video settings or mod settings if you have a view distance mod like CHVD or ACE
@@TFROST99 thanks for getting back to me! I will try that but when I get above a certain altitude clouds cover the ground and I can’t see anything will the view distance thing fix that
@@TFROST99 how did you enable the fortification tool in the interaction menu? When I add a fortification tool to my inventory through the editor, it does not appear in the interaction menu
A very good tutorial in how to play the mod, but as a noob to Arma I can't figure out how to get Arma to run the mod! Other than Arma itself what do I need and how to activate the mod to get into the plane. Very frustrating!!
First find the mod on Steam, subscribe to it. When you open up Arma it will download, then Load the mod in your dashboard screen. Go to editor, use a map, add targets. There are videos how to do this I'm sure. Add in the Gunship and practice. Hope it helps
Ok I need a better tutorial than this. I am completely ignorant to pc games. I have the spooky on the runway but I do not know how to even look around the cockpit
Honestly a great video. I went from console to PC and decided to try this and man it’s a breath of fresh air
Amazing Job! As I convince my unit to use the AC-130U this will be our go to tutorial to get our flyboys started.
Excellent job! Very professional and to the point.
Great video! I found another sweet-spot at 1700m Hight, 3500m radius and speed 320 in case you have Tigris AA in the AO.
Amazing video, i hope more sees this, this video cleared up all things i misunderstood and im having perfect fun with the mod now
Thanks a lot, it helped so much!
There are no manuals on steam, but luckely there is discord!
Thanks again!
Best tutorial currently.
had interesting game type Arma 3 Wizards .. you get much higher life and armors and you have stuff you can cast like troops and what not ...
Thankyou, still having problems maintaining an orbit that works

Hey, thank you for the tutorial! The plane keeps turning so i cant even aim.. Any ideas why this could be happening? Also it is inaccurate
make sure you press your “lase range” button right before firing so the guns can adjust to hit what you’re aiming at
Thank you, really god job!
Great video, quick question, how did you get that logistics section in your ace interface at the start of the video?
Hey there. I'm starting to currently get into the AC-130. Do you know how I can see friendly designator markers?

Can the ai do anything but just fly bye a enemy and do nothing? Bc I thought the ai guns will fire at it

Just set them to 'hold fire' in the command menu
hii, i have a question, can i have another player in the ir operator seat and turn on the auto pilot

How do you get the fog away in the sky is there a mod would greatly appreciate help

@@Thescorpian-ud8zu That should be your view distance yes
There is a Haze mod to remove the haze or "fog".
Doesn't throw me into another seat, doesn't circle, just crashes. What do?
can i activate the flares while being the tv operator? or i need to be the pilot?
My only problem is no matter what bank angle or speed I choose I'm always at weapon limit when I'm trying to fire at the center
youre in the wrong seat, you need to enter as IR operator
how did you build a container on the 19th second through the interaction menu?
ACE Mod. It’s ACE’s Interaction Menu

Nice video bro
So does this work with simplex? I’ve been trying to get it to work but I can’t find the right turret path
I know its a year late but you set the turret path to 2 and it works

@@TFROST99 worked thx

There’s plenty of tutorials of the basic ArmA 3 controls on TH-cam thankfully 🙂
to look around the cockpit click alt 2 times
