G'Day all,

I'm tying to have separate weapon rails for the F-32 weapon bay and have found that the usual _DATA.ini entries (below) don't seem to work.

 

ModelNodeName=XXX (This is the main moving pylon in the bay)

...

LaunchRailNodeName=XXX (This is the launch rail attached to the moving pylon)

 

Does anyone know if there's a way to make this work?

So far, the only option I can think of is to have separate main pylons for each rail that I want.

Thanks

Dels

Although these are external pylons a similar setup "could" work. Though I admit I don't have an internal bay bird ATM to see it. Only thing to keep in mind if you try to load similar class of weapons on both type of rails (IRM, etc like on Lau7/Lau128), might get double loadout unless "specificstationcode=" is used.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I've tried using the same entries as external pylons but it doesn't seem to work.

I suspect that launch rails may not be supported for internal pylons, so I think I'll have to build separate internal pylons.
