Cool, could have a better texture, but cool nonetheless.

[Donnervogel]

too small, too ugly, too sensitive maneuverability

sorry but this is one of the worst add ons I've ever seen. I couldn't find anything good at it.

[HotShot]

Are you kidding Donnervogel, its great, a little powerfull and ugly but still great. No doubt there will be at least 2 different textures of it with in a couple of days. USAF and RAF versions would be good but a gunship variation would be best. ;D

[Donnervogel]

? Whats good about it?
Maneuverability is a big joke. It's like flying the chessna.
Textures are bad and the model is bad too.
The whole plane is far too small. Just get out and stand on the side and look at it from 3rd person.
There are textures missing in the cockpit.

[KevBaz]

ive seen worse

[CBFASI]

At least someone released one..........

Its a start........

Maybe others might get a move on to better it....

[T.S.C.Plage]

Oooops...have posted a comment in the "Pre 1985" threat...lucky that nobody posted something so I could delete the whole topic.

But wasn't the C-130 established before 1985 or why is it in this topic!?!

OK, I also think it's a lil to small (scale 1/1.5 or so...) but it's flight physics are quite ok and the cargospace looks also great!



It's only version 1 so there should be a new one in the future...a lil' resizing and it's quite perfect!

And as said it's a beginning...

I love it. One of the things I dont like (Not Adammos fault) is that you cant adjust the flight altitude of planes so the whole time planes are flying way to low. I think we should offer the fix to BIS but its probably already been done and there is probably a good explanation on why we cant set the height of planes.

hi

*says nothing about this one* because I probably get a warning*

  ;D :-X

good job on the c-130. it works fine with me, but i only have a one observation. the flight mechanics are pretty good, but i think that it turns to the left or the right a bit too much when flying in a straight line. also, i was wondering if you plan on having a version with the c-130 having an all grey color to go along with the camo version? all in all, i thought you did a good job, especially with the open side door and all the paras go out that door on a drop, but is there a way to view the open door from the outside of the aircraft (when using the third person button or as a unit on the ground with binos, the side door is closed)?

[Dirtman]

Its a good job.  Thanks for the C-130.  I hate to say anything I found strange, but when you put yourself incargo, it puts in the the second set upfront.  To get around this you have to add another crewman and group it to the plane.  The sound is a little weak for a C-130 (spent lots of hours in them) loud and multi-engine.  Sounds like the cessna engine.  But overall a great job.  For sure a good building block to start from.

[futurehornetdriver]

overall great addon dude...my only request would be a reskinning maybe all gray like current C-130s oh and yeah, maybe adding a gunner(with no firing ability of course)  to occupy the second seat so passengers always start in the cargo area. Again great job on a much wanted addon

[psunder]

I measured the c130 in ofp....... 33 meter wingspan, 24 meters nose to tail as compared to 40 meters and 30 meters on the real thing.  What I ant to see are refueling baskets on the wings so I can refuel the rotorcraft in flight

[Skaven]

I've downloaded the C 130 Hercules, and the model seems great to me, the only problem is indeed the size, it should be bigger, this was one of my most wanted planes in the game, and I don't consider it a dispointment, indeed the textures are a little bit weird, but I supose this is version 1.0 I'm sure a lot will be improoved, so far so good  

[MaxiKana]

Yeah its really good, but i would have gone a for a bit darker camo :/

The model is very good but its a little small...
and the propellers bug me a bit.

I like the flight charascteristics(sp...)

The cargo space is really cool.

Keep up the good work!

[Hellfire]

can I have an 1.46 version?

[Donnervogel]

I have changed my mind a bit. After looking better at it I still don't like it but I will take back the 'one of the worst addons'. It's not a good addon but there are some good things.

[Vera_Krieg]

damn straight its good, with a few improvements, it'll be great.  I like the idea of the nongunner gunner, because if someone were to get a wild hair and decide to make the AC-130, bingo we have already got the gunner.  Like everyone says its a real good start and i myself look foward to seeing more like it.

Download improved C-130 on http://www.ofp-zone.de

Improvements:

1> external texture
2> 2 more nav seats in the cockpit
3> wheels more round
4> size to military spec

[Messiah]

hmmmmmm

tried the new version - the cammo isnt briliant - as at any close range it becomes very blurred...

and at any long range it insnt textured at all - its just grey.

great fun dropping troops though.  

[vectordude]

we seriously need a c-130 with a cargo bay that opens so we can load like tanks into there

[Vera_Krieg]

can we do that

[Wires]

That's a good question Vera_Krieg, i think the most likely answer is NO but I have ahd an idea (very painful).

You can place units on top of buildings and they don't fall through right? Well is there some parameter that detirmines if the roof is solid? And if so could this be applied to the body of a C-130 so when a vehicle of some kind drove inside it would get stuck when the door was closed and could then be transported.

Just a thought

i wonder if marcel knows cuz hes doin sumthin like that with his waco glider

[Gunship]

New C-130 Update!

You can download Adammos latest version of the C-10 on http://www.ofp-zone.de

Remember version on ofp.info or so on are old version this is the new on its only 15 minutes old ;o)<br>

[Coolguy452]

I don't know about the new one, but the old one crashed my game every time I tried to use it.

[Tigershark]

Stupid question....but has anyone actually loaded troops and had them eject from this puppy?

I couldn't even climb in the cargo bay when I jumped out of the cockpit....and I couldn't get into the cockpit either.

Anyone?

[Coporal_Punishment]

Ehhh i've had 3 rifle squads just out of the plane while i'm flying it. It wierd when they parachute but i found it u are faster then 400 km and over 50m high OFP troops rearly die :D:D

[Dirtman]

Hey Capt. Moore what are the positions in the cockpit...I tried putting AI in it, but it keeps putting them in the back and me in front.  Thanks
