Hype Performance Group showcased the work done on the Action Pack Expansion for its Airbus H145 helicopter.
The HPG team has been hard at work on completing items necessary to bring the H145 Base Pack to 1.0 status, and to release the first public build of the H145 HEMS Variant from our Action Pack Expansion.
Most major modeling, texturing and polishing details have been completed for the aircraft frames and our art team has been focused on producing the props, humans and scenery objects that will help to make our missions as immersive as possible for H145 pilots.
In regards to systems, Dave has successfully implemented a platform for missions to be generated for users and most recently has been focused on HEMS related tasks such as hoisting and building out the logic behind missions scenarios. Much attention is also being given to the overall user experience and there is a major new feature related to configurations that we can’t wait to show off to the community in a future update.
Our ETA for the release of the HEMS variant is still before the end of this month and you can expect some preview coverage prior to the release so you know what to expect from this amazing new project.
We are closing this update out with a few photos.
Please remember these are work in progress photos, for example – there will be variation to the humans upon release, but for now enjoy the Bruce Willis twins.
Photos: DRF & Cal Fire Liveries, crewman and accident victim from a mission scenario, Firefighting variant interior including some items for hoisting, HEMS variant interior and the Bruce Willis twins wheeling a patient to the H145 for transport.
