The original helicopter was made by Owen Hewitt for Flight Simulator 2004. I converted it for GTA IV as good as I can and added some details.
This helicopter has the following features:

* three different Lod models
* custom moving rotor models
* four working, angled doors
* independent landing lights, navigation lights, strobes and one beacon on their right position
* wire cutters as extra part
* fuselage bumpmaps for detailed riffets
* 4 car colours
* dirt enabled and mapped
* illuminated instruments
* illuminated cockpit
* working skid
* every window is an independent breakable part
* detailed interior Replaces: Maverick

if any ped sit on the back seat, will they sit on the chair instead sit on the side of the Heli?

Yes, they do as you can see in the video I posted and at the picture. Due to game limitations it's not perfect as your player looks like he holds a steering wheel, but it's better then the buggy standard animation anyway.

awesome !! :) i like the sit animation, make more helicopters.

I will! ;) maybe the next one will be Marakov's MD500e/AH6 Mix rigged from Modern Warfare 3 with some nasty inprovements (I'll mix it with the Buzzard cause it has a FLIR-Pod and guns which the original doesn't have...). Stay tuned :)

Haven't tested yet but looks awesome from the video.

that's what I call an compliment, thank you chasez! You may have spotted your 412 in the video ;) I'm waiting for a finished version of it as it's still a beta

Nice looking forward to it!

Looks good.I think that engine vents would look better if you would cut out them and create the meshes rather then using normal map, the same goes for the fuel cap and housing. Btw I hope you noticed that the rotor shadows are missing.
Posted on July 8, 2012 6:42PM by chasez
the missing shadows are caused by using vehglass as material for the moving rotor but I think that's okay... maybe I'll change it to some other... Also I didn't cut out and re-model anything to keep the polycount on a low level (less then 2 MB) for this release. There may come another version whith liverys, so I gotta change the materials again and that way I can't use the normal maps anymore... ;)

uh shit, i wanted to make Makarovs MD500 aswell -.- xD
Posted on July 9, 2012 2:58AM by SkylineGTRFreak
you can do it anyway, or you'll do a MD500e Standard... but I won't use the Makarov heli for this because the skid is way too short (based on a Little Bird) aswell as some other parts... and... it doesn't have any front doors :D

well, i've tr it.. and it's awesome! 10/10 for u,, anyway Nice light! i like it!

I use this as tourmav replacement, what is really cool you can place yourself in back seat while taking tour for different experience. Sometimes i come to helipads and all of them there are half way sunk in concrete. I do use your ide and handling settings. Maybe it has something to do with fast landing bug. I wish there would be way to correct the how peds get out of heli from back seats. But that has nothing to do with your mod i believe.

Yes... sometimes this helicopter get stuck while spawning by the game... if you spawn it with a trainer everything is okay. This seems to be also a bug caused by my handling issue but it appears random.

To the back seats: it's the only way to make them work yet. Another way would be to change the helicopter animations but if we do so other helicopters get possibly messed up (which require the original animations). Too sad R* didn't use rear doors on helicopters :(
