So, I had already figured out what's described in the video on my own. BUT I have a different issue. Whenever I fire a weapon, be it the 102, 40mm or the GAU. There's sound and muzzleflash BUT NO DAMAGE OR EXPLOSION. Meaning, no projectiles come out the barrels. What could be the cause for this? And how could I fix it? EDIT: NVM, I figured out the problem. The angle of the weapons (WPN LIMIT) seems to be off. Meaning that you can't get a green square by aiming at the "target center" marked by the auto-pilot. It shouldn't be like that, but I guess you can offset the center of the target so you can actually fire at it.
I noticed that the spooky has 3 guns. I found out that I can fire the minigun and the howitzer but the gun in the middle fires by itself and I can't control it. Do you know how I can stop it from firing into the enemy? Since the AI is cotrolling it it takes out my targets first and I have nothing to shoot at after 20 seconds
There's one gun shooting bursts.. 25, 50 and 100. Once you fire it, it will shoot all burst up to your burst limit. If you are IR operator in the plane, you control the fire systems. AI can pilot with no problem
Whenever I fly everything works but once it puts me in the shooting seat I cant look around. I can still shoots all the guns on the plane but im just stuck staring at the building my AP is flying around. Any idea how I can fix it?
Try pressing ctrl + t By default it is slewing your TGP to one spot although it shouldn't be like that Or press zoom in or out and then try to move your camera
Hi, sorrY If I bother you , just one quick question, is there a way to make the plane loiter in on the right side? Cause mine loiters around the area but not with cannons pointed to target....I Mean, cannons point in the air xD I need it to lean to the correct side for shooting...
I tried to change the crews to OPFOR because I was playing as OPFOR. then I got shutdown by friendly OPFOR AA?!?!? how can I fix it making it not getting shot by any OPFOR ai unit????
@@BenchmarkCiA ya maybe i'm doing it wrong i do that too but it's inaccurate the bullets don't hit, the thing doesn't turn green, the cross hair is to the left
@@dedueybdebdu try hight of at least 1000 and radius of 1500 Turn on laser and play with the mouse till you see the green square and fix position accordingly

@@lander4048 I don't really know but sometimes when you press F to switch weapons, clicking F again and you'll see the same weapon with a mini triangle above (upper right corner of the screen), then you'll need to shoot, that's all I know there
For some reason when I switch ap on i get an ap off message in the chat box and then it wont engage the autopilot, I have used the spooky before fine, but this is a recent problem.
This mod don't seem to be compatible with my current version of Arma. Errors EVERYWHERE!!! And extremely buggy. Nothing basically works well. I can't play it 🥺
Your current version is supposed to be up to date and this mod works great with it. Try to verify your Arma 3 files OR reinstall the mod Third, you might have a mod that conflicts and causes the issues, so load only the necessary mods and check if the problem appears again. If not, so a mod causes all of this
@@BenchmarkCiA I just tried what you said with the MODs. I removed them all and tried it and it's still the same shenanigans! So it's definitely due to the fact that I am stuck using a older version of Arma 3. It's the latest version of 2017. And I know for a fact that there are newer versions after that. To put it into perspectives -- I didn't buy this game off steam either sadly lol. It's a cracked version which was given to me last year lol. And I might or might not buy the official game eventually though. It's just too much of a hassle to reinstate every files and MODs so I think I will stick with this version regardless. Which is a pity because I truly wanted this MOD! I will try few more tricks of my own to make the MOD more stable when I get back home tonight but I won't hold my breath for that. It's just far too unstable and many functions don't work at all. Hell, it can't even fly in circles like it's supposed to do lol. I truly wanted that MOD but oh well. Thanks for the reply though my friend! Much appreciated = )
@@BenchmarkCiA I don't care about the price lol. If I am to buy it ( which I will to be honest! Just to support at least ) then it will be full price! I want to support as much as I can! Plus I have money to spend right now so I will definitely want to spend full price with all the DLCs and all even though even I won't be touching the campaign nor the DLCs lol. I create my own missions! And it's a blast = ) Anyway....I talk to freaking much lol. Thanks again for the reply friend! Truly appreciate it! And have a good weekend! 🤙😁
@@BenchmarkCiA the ai can control every heli or plane by itself I just give em commands they can provide CAS gundrun bombrun and I also can tell em to land but when I tell it to this plane they just crash I also think that they use normal auto land thingy

Will I need any dlc to play with the ac130? Thanks
Hey dude
No you don't need any dlcs. I hope :)

Try pressing ctrl + t
By default it is slewing your TGP to one spot although it shouldn't be like that
Or press zoom in or out and then try to move your camera
How do you make the plane follow the pre set turn radius and height. Mine doesnt follow it?
Make sure you turn AP on in the same place you choose your height and radius
When I spawn the ac130 it’s always crashing to the ground
I think something is broken..
I already notified the USAF team, as I noticed it as well lately
I don't know if a fix is on the way..sorry
what are the mods for effects? its not blastcore isnt it?
I use Blastcore in general, but the the Spooky has its own explosion effect
I love to pilot this thing. I just fly above meanwhile my gunner shreds AI down there. Honestly it's so much fun.
It's definitely a flying tank.. :))
I do not see Auto Pilot when i do it
scroll menu? Try loading only needed mods for USAF and see.

Hey dude. It's been a while since I used it, but when you set autopilot, you can set the direction of the loiter (clockwise or counter..)
@@BenchmarkCiA Yeah brother I got it done yesterday! :D Thanks! :)
Where can i download AC 130 SP missions
Search the Steam Workshop.. I don't cover missions with it.. Or just create one with the editor :)

Don't actually know...
Never tried. But I guess that if you activate auto pilot it creates blufor Pilot (as this plane is used only by the US)
Thanks man! Appreciate it!
how is yours so steady? mine keeps turning
I just give the auto pilot a course, hight and radius via the in game action menu and that's it basically :)

Hey man. Arma 3 have a HUGE workshop in steam, just search google - Arma 3 USAF mod. You'll get there
@@BenchmarkCiA Thanks much bro 👍👍
How do you land it? do you have to be in the pilot seat? because if you are you can switch to any seat but once you have u cant switch back
I would use a mod like Advanced AI mod and then i could take control of the pilot and land it, or just order the pilot to do so
@@BenchmarkCiA thanks!
do you know what desFtrack does in the scroll menu?
ahh..no, sorry :)
