can you make one that isnt a Replacement

for me it only replaces gibs not the helicopter

That means something else must include the HL2 helicopter models, or this mod just isn't being loaded at all in the first place. That's about the only two likely scenarios, unless we've found another oddity edge-case.

i have the same issue as @black and i uninstalled all the mods that might conflict the replacement and it still doesnt work. i tried reinstalling it and still nothing.

@black

It's entirely possible another mod or even a game mount is overriding it. I already have to get more screenshots anyway so I'll check later.

It stopped replacing the helicopter after a while for some reason..
I reinstalled it and it still won't replace.

@red

I don't know what that is, nor do I have any intention of making it a vehicle. Could ask the original authors if they had any interest in doing it.

I get that theres an LFS version but I think it'd be a lot more useful if it was on the Airwatch base, maybe a separate vehicle from the hunter. Just call it the KA-27 or whatever. LFS isn't very good.

its not replacing the helicopter for me i wonder what i have to do

@red

Check the description.

I love it man, you did amazing work. My only possible request is that its made as a seperate vehicle rather than an replacement, also the rotor is invisible for me but that honestly not a big deal. I wish that I could have the regular hunter alongside this beast.

@gazzer

Yeah it's a bit janky because the HL2 animations/sequences do not expect it to be a tandem-rotor helicopter. I'm surprised it works at all with the amount of hard-coding HL2 has, honestly

the spin animation for when it goes to a certain point and goes boom is kind of broken

@V92 Yeah your right however the ka-29 is in the game

@amy

I don't think it was in Mercs 2

I remember this Helicopter being in Mercenaries 2 World in flames
