Airwatch

Description
I've always been a fan of the combine helicopter, unfortunately a lot of addons which allow you to fly them don't quite do them justice or have stopped working over the years. The included vehicles aim to mimic the original's behavior as closely as possible, and while it's not always a 100% accurate replica I still feel that I've come quite close more often than not.

Features

Hunter Chopper
  • Comes with two versions, one for a single pilot and one where the main gun is controlled by a second pilot.
  • The hunter chopper's signature gun as a primary weapon and multiple secondary weapons
  • Toggle-able collision lights and search light
  • Animated tail rotor
  • A damage system with configurable health
  • Crashing mechanics (When out of health, fun stuff will happen, effects included)
  • Simulated pilot chatter
Combine Dropship
  • Again, comes with two versions. One for a single pilot and one with a separate gunner.
  • Six passenger seats (For players, not NPC's).
  • A fully animated 'body'.
  • Functional pod door (Reload to toggle, passengers can only enter when it's open)
Gunship
  • One seated aircraft capable of full-speed flight in all directions
  • Fully animated
  • Damageable with crashing mechanics
Manhack
  • One seated drone capable of moving through tight corridors and ripping people to shreds
  • A near 1:1 recreation of the NPC, complete with animations, behavior and sounds
  • Damageable
  • The ability to switch colors between combine and rebel aligned
Hunter Killer
  • The one from terminator
  • Animated thrusters
  • Damageable
  • Dual plasma cannons as the primary weapon with an energy cannon as it's secondary fire
  • Toggle-able search lights

Notes

  • Dropships will not become destructible. Period.
  • You can find them under entities -> Airwatch 2
  • NPC's do not interact with any of the entities by default, no support is planned

Credits
  • Snapshot for helping with the dropship animations, initial bugtesting and feedback
  • Hoplite for helping me get started with the rewrite and providing feedback along the way
  • Valve for making the source SDK available on github

the first person and third from the entities are all messed and wrong how do i fix this ?

pretty good mod,one thing i dont like is the fact of adding the manhack and the hunter killer because manhacks are drones and you are like compacting at the size of a manhack to fit in here,also the hunter killer is not in HL2.

uh mr trooper did you read the bottom of the description
Trooper_025 16 Apr @ 6:17pm 
the one and only problem i have with this is for some reason npcs wont target you, as soon as you exit the vehicle they can see you, then once you get back in its like you never existed.
other than that, very good stuff

I really like Airwatch base and other vehicle addons that use it; I actually prefer this to the more prominent aviation bases like LFS and WAC, primarily for the simple controls and physics. Too bad there aren't many vehicles that utilize Airwatch, I'd love to see more heli addons developed like this. I especially would like to see rotorwash physics for player-accessible helicopters that make props and ropes bounce around like they do with npc aircraft. It's a niche thing, but if someone could make it possible, it would make my day!
