About This File

#INSTALLATION

 

The setup for this mod is designed to use the Thirdwire first generation folder structure patched

to 10-08 standard, the latest one as per july 2009!

 

1) Unzip the "Hunter FGA9" folder to a temporary place where it is easy to find.

 

2) Add the data from "Hunter Pylon_Weapondata.txt" to your weapondata.ini and save it with the weapons editor.

This step is mandatory in order to get a visible pylon for the Sidewinder.

 

3) Copy the "Hunter_FGA9" folder to your "Aircraft" directory.

 

4) In the case that you do not use the community weapons pack 2.52 (available at CombatAce.com, link below),

you may have to add the data from "Weapons\Ordnance_Weapondata.txt" to your weapondata.ini and copy

the needed folders in "Weapons" in your weapon directory.

 

 

#ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

 

This is mainly a INI rework to turn a SFP1 Hunter F6 (also available at CA, link below) in a

Hunter FGA9 ground attack aircraft. It uses some data (namely the Hunter Pylon and a cockpit) of

another Hunter Mod by ndicki (it could also be downloaded at CA, link below).

 

I did not research a large amount of historical fidelity - it looks like sidewinder pylons were only

mounted on exported and so customised Hunters - like planes of the Rhodesian Airforce.

 

I've tested the plane on a Strike Fighters Project 1 install patched to Oct.-08 level with the

community weapons pack 2.52 installed.

#DOCUMENTATION

 

1) The FM and the rest of the aircraft_data.ini comes mainly from the Hunter F6 model. Changes include

the removing of the rocket rails and the adding of the Sidewinder stations.

 

2) The loadout.ini is my creation.

 

3) The LOD's, hangar, loading and loadout screens are simply renamed versions of the F6 versions.

#CREDITS

 

The Hunter F6 was done by:

 

- Modelling likely by ArmorDave. Skins by Sundowner, Gramps. Other contributors according to the

readme were Diego, Marcelo without naming their contribution. The upload at CA was done by USAFMTL.

 

The Rhodesian Hunter was a coproduction too (quote from the ReadMe of it):

 

- "Spinners modified the Thirdwire stock Hunter FGA.9 to make it flyable, and fitted the cockpit.

The weapons pylon and rail was made specially by Alex "AleDucat" Ducat.

Modifications to ini files, stock weapons, screens and skin by Nigel "ndicki" Dickinson.

Ideas and support from Josh 'Jeremiah Weed' "

 

 

I apologize for any forgotten people in the credits, please notify me in case of any lack of correctness.

That is my first try at a modification and so my first little publication - any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

 

I want to say "Thank you" at Wrench, moderator at CombatAce, for some useful hints. Thanks also for the rest

of the Thirdwire community!
