+Dave Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Open the aircraft data.ini of th e plane you want to add the pilot too. It looks something like this. Pilot SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT PilotModelName = Harrier <----This is where you add this line of the pilot you want to use. Position=0.0,2.8,0.55 SeatModelName=seat_a-4 SeatPosition=0.00,2.80,0.15 MinExtentPosition=-0.25, 2.5,-0.2 MaxExtentPosition= 0.25, 3.2, 0.8 Make sure the pilot and skin is in your main aircraft folder. You should then be set. Quote

markkyle66 Posted March 24, 2006 Author Posted March 24, 2006 Yes add that line. Ive almost got it! .. i'm trying to use the VF31 tomcatters pilot from column5... it didnt load and crashed the game when i went to fly with a tomcat ... ? for that one line i wrote this... PilotModelName=vf31af1 I did the same for the Copilot... without puting .lod after it ... since the readme said it wasnt required. The pilots are in the WOV/aircraft folder and not in a specific aircraft folder thanks for trying to help me lol Quote
Guest Diego Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Not sure who uploaded this file since I'm the author of the textures. Check to see if there is a cfg file named vf31af1. Open it up with Notepad or Word and check to see if the names match the LOD file. [LOD001] Filename=XXX.LOD <---should be vf31af1.LOD Distance=40 [LOD002] Filename=XXX_lod002.LOD <---should be vf31af1.LOD Distance=300 Quote
Guest Saganuay82 Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 You dont need the file extension just the name. PilotModelName = Harrier Make sure the name you write in matches the BMP. Quote
+Dave Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 http://www.column5.us/pilots.htm These are up at C5's. Readme from one ------------------------------------- Template: Diego Installation: 1.Drop the 3 files in your Strikes Fighters/Objects/Aircraft folder 2.Open the plane_data.ini file of the plane that you want the pilot skin to go with, search for // Crew --------------------------------------------------------- [Pilot] SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT and then, just under this line, enter "PilotModelName=XXX.LOD" so you'll see // Crew --------------------------------------------------------- [Pilot] SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT PilotModelName=XXX.LOD XXX.LOD is the name of the file.lod provided in each zip Here it is!!
