air combat would be cool, but i just think we could support an air superiority type branch to the warmap.

maybe like an airplane reinforcement where you get to use 1 plane as onmap arty support instead of offmap ? it would make more sense to have 88s , wirblewinds, ostwinds , the brit AA gun (don't remember the name now) and the quads for AA fire.

This is something Leophone should experiment on. I would deff. push for it's implementation into EIRR if he got something working.

I can see it now.

Leo you are a fucking idiot, we were talking about making planes being controlled on the field like a tank. Do you even know what you are saying?

its hard to respond to someone whos retarded

Quad does target paradropping schirms, or dropping flower bombs.

its coz of the target tables. quad has 0 penetration, too low priority and no auto targetting vs aircraft armor type. criticals might be screwed up too so it cant kill (just like henschel crits are borked)

Lets make it simple for you Leo.

This was originally about a COH mod around air combat.

Someone suggested making them controlable on the battlefield.

I made a JOKE about about how people like to complain, and used the quad as an example

You took it seriously and called me a retard, even though you are the one on the forums who constantly whines about all units, and the only person i know who FAILS to crush with a flank speed cromwell

If the would add aircraft to the game as controlables in EIR

1. They would have to fix the quad bug

2. It wouldn't be using the standard aircraft model, but something different entirely.

Unkn0wn edit: no need for the flames

so the conclusion is your jokes suck?

[Spartan_Marine88]

No my conclusion, is that i made a joke, which others got, but you were too stupid to understand.

[LeoPhone]

but if you want to make jokes, why not post in the funny stuff topic?

Groundfire you working on it?      Will we see planes in EIR ? 

[Chyper]

If I had the skills I would gladly start working on this project. Sadly, I don't, so best of luck to the unfortunate one that is delegated this task.

Also, this mod sounds awsome

[RoyalHants]

Theres a mod for WIC that lets you control harriers there the only plane that would suite the sizes of coh maps

it would be possible, mostly the helicopter for germans, this one mod i found there was a , recon helicopter, gas bomber helicopter, and a helicopter that could drop bombs on the enemy

And why would the germans have helicopters?

[RoyalHants]

Because there not allowed harriers

I actually cant do anything, but there's plenty of evidence to show that it could be done, if only in a rudimentary aspect.

Here's a video showing how controlable planes would function:


Here's a WB screeny of what a typical battlefield would look like:

With an hour of fiddling with the world builder, I was able to design a simple map with floating action point fog that simulates continuious flight. (Those rain drop streaks are actually ground AA tracers)

If we can adjust the planes to be controlled a tad further off the ground, I think we got ourselves a concept for a side mod.
