Here's a HD reimagining of News Chopper 5

Also includes the Dark Carnival chopper, and most custom campaigns that use the chopper

Features: - Brand new, scratch-made model for the News Chopper, based (loosely) on a Bell 205 - New HD Textures - Retains the original animations on No Mercy, uses MrFunreal's reanimations on Dark Carnival (Sorry TLS, it still flies through the building, just off-screen) - Has flashing lights and positional lights that mark it in the dark - Includes a model for Suicide Blitz 2, though it is based on mod loading order whether it shows up or not

Known Issues: - On some custom campaigns, the navigation lights will float mid-air before the helicopter arrives. - The model is very high quality and may cause performance issues on low end systems. (Untested) - Incompatible with the Helicopter With Transparent Glass addon, but does include its main features by default (Transparent glass, reanimations on Dark Carnival)

Assets used in creating this model: Glass texture / Army Decals - Modern Warfare 2 Remastered Dials - GTA 5 Cabin Props - Valve Dark Carnival Animations - MrFunreal Main mesh and main textures - Randy

if there's demand for it I'll get off my lazy ass and upload the UV maps so you can make reskins, if not I sleep

I do not take requests
