 ====== ArmA 2 To ArmA 3 Port Vehicles - General ======
-Model changes you most likely have to do are proxys. Many proxy:\ca\... paths in your models wheter these are driver/cargo/pilot/gunner or weapon proxies. It is the same easy search for "ca\" strings in P3D model paths.

 Like I said, its difficult to give detailed guide which proxies replace what because there is so many different addons and variations of proxies used, hopefully the above gives some idea though.

 It is very important to get your base inheritance class correct if you have many vehicles which inherits. Don't try to fix one vehicle at the time, TEST with one vehicle but fix your BASE inheritance class first.
+Aircraft or helicopter gunner proxy needs to be how the chracter is positioned, then you need config.cpp properties for the turret which this gunner mans:
+<code cpp>
+gunnerAction = "pilot_Heli_Transport_01";
+gunnerInAction = "pilot_Heli_Transport_01";

+If you leave out the config so its wrong (for example from arma2) then gunner will take basic standing pose / animation. Also if the gunner proxy is wrong, the gunner of course takes the pose / animation which looks off to such gunner.
