AC-130U Spooky II Gunship Guide (2021) - ArmA 3 USAF Mod

[@Woulffman]

Excellent job! Very professional and to the point.

[@7cavblack858]

Amazing Job! As I convince my unit to use the AC-130U this will be our go to tutorial to get our flyboys started.

[@coolbreezeGP]

Honestly a great video. I went from console to PC and decided to try this and man it’s a breath of fresh air

[@pingopete]

Best tutorial currently.

[@firstcaptaingabrielsantar5235]

Amazing video, i hope more sees this, this video cleared up all things i misunderstood and im having perfect fun with the mod now

[@serc7553]

Thanks a lot, it helped so much! There are no manuals on steam, but luckely there is discord! Thanks again!

[@sgtfoose8842]

Great video! I found another sweet-spot at 1700m Hight, 3500m radius and speed 320 in case you have Tigris AA in the AO.

[@LieutenantTunguska]

Thank you, really god job!

[@nikola1885]

Nice video bro

[@esco791]

Thank you 🙏

[@001_Hex]

Great video, quick question, how did you get that logistics section in your ace interface at the start of the video?

[@CptJET-he8nc]

TY

[@lordjake2350]

Can the ai do anything but just fly bye a enemy and do nothing? Bc I thought the ai guns will fire at it

[@dedueybdebdu]

Hey, thank you for the tutorial! The plane keeps turning so i cant even aim.. Any ideas why this could be happening? Also it is inaccurate

[@evendur8341]

make sure you press your “lase range” button right before firing so the guns can adjust to hit what you’re aiming at

[@Blacklisted_Gaming]

i know i'm super late to the party here, but i'm just getting back into arma and just got this mod. My question is can i program this AC-130 to be used as a "CAS" support asset manned by the AI? Such as i call it in, it holds a race track pattern, shoots at the coordinates i give, and then RTB when ammo is depleted?

[@crow18885]

hii, i have a question, can i have another player in the ir operator seat and turn on the auto pilot

[@Allerdice]

sweet I'll try it out

[@thesickmemes4134]

can i activate the flares while being the tv operator? or i need to be the pilot?

[@skutterbuster666]

Thankyou, still having problems maintaining an orbit that works

[@palaius]

Hey there. I'm starting to currently get into the AC-130. Do you know how I can see friendly designator markers?

[@pingopete]

They have to be set by someone in one of the two sensor positions (IR or TV) using the scroll wheel commands. You can also name a unit as ftm or hm01 etc in the editor to have it auto selected when the mission starts

[@weedeater49cc]

had interesting game type Arma 3 Wizards .. you get much higher life and armors and you have stuff you can cast like troops and what not ...

[@Afganistan289]

autopiltot is totallz broken and does not work

[@s12830]

Doesn't throw me into another seat, doesn't circle, just crashes. What do?

[@z3nith4l]

Curious if there's a way to stop the AI from instantly and completely leveling whatever you set as the target centre? Like, even if there is no enemies it just starts destroying buildings lol.

[@b.a.3627]

Just set them to 'hold fire' in the command menu

[@murphylaw8441]

Great video but I still can't have an accurate shot from your videos especially the radius and the altitude which makes my bofors and 105mm Howitzer inaccurate only my 25mm Gau-12 is accurate. So Idk the solution here

[@DarkReapers115]

how do I get ammo for the AC-130 ? it lets me spawn the container but not refill it also how do i get everything to pop up it will not let me do auto pilot or anything like that

[@Lazy_Days_BuckinBulls]

How do you zoom in?

[@stabbb1299]

A very good tutorial in how to play the mod, but as a noob to Arma I can't figure out how to get Arma to run the mod! Other than Arma itself what do I need and how to activate the mod to get into the plane. Very frustrating!!

[@otanguma]

First find the mod on Steam, subscribe to it. When you open up Arma it will download, then Load the mod in your dashboard screen. Go to editor, use a map, add targets. There are videos how to do this I'm sure. Add in the Gunship and practice. Hope it helps

[@phantomlegend6167]

Anyway to get this to work with simplex support services?

[@leohelen1858]

My only problem is no matter what bank angle or speed I choose I'm always at weapon limit when I'm trying to fire at the center

[@Bob-y2m3o]

youre in the wrong seat, you need to enter as IR operator

[@johnkeo358]

wait how do you zoom in and out on the guns?

[@exonova7883]

So does this work with simplex? I’ve been trying to get it to work but I can’t find the right turret path

[@phantomlegend6167]

I know its a year late but you set the turret path to 2 and it works

[@tasty_escalator]

how did you build a container on the 19th second through the interaction menu?

[@TFROST99]

ACE Mod. It’s ACE’s Interaction Menu

[@tasty_escalator]

@@TFROST99 how did you enable the fortification tool in the interaction menu? When I add a fortification tool to my inventory through the editor, it does not appear in the interaction menu

[@Thescorpian-ud8zu]

How do you get the fog away in the sky is there a mod would greatly appreciate help

[@TFROST99]

Sounds like you have a low view distance. You’ll have to increase your view distance in your video settings or mod settings if you have a view distance mod like CHVD or ACE

[@Thescorpian-ud8zu]

@@TFROST99 thanks for getting back to me! I will try that but when I get above a certain altitude clouds cover the ground and I can’t see anything will the view distance thing fix that

[@ImmortalWombat]

@@Thescorpian-ud8zu That should be your view distance yes

[@otanguma]

There is a Haze mod to remove the haze or "fog".

[@zc240x7]

Everytime I turn on auto pilot I get an AP OFF notification then crash

[@sevenspecialpeople]

bro how do you zoom in with the IR

[@TFROST99]

I think number pad + and - if I remember correctly. Been a couple years, so I’m not exact

[@sevenspecialpeople]

@@TFROST99 worked thx

[@Skiesaremine]

My square doesn’t turn green. What do I need to do?

[@kamranyouyo3821]

same

[@61684ryan]

Ok I need a better tutorial than this. I am completely ignorant to pc games. I have the spooky on the runway but I do not know how to even look around the cockpit

[@TFROST99]

There’s plenty of tutorials of the basic ArmA 3 controls on KZbin thankfully 🙂

[@Afganistan289]

to look around the cockpit click alt 2 times
