SFG patch 4 and new weps pack probs

[+bigal1 0]

Hi all i'm having a few problems with the new weapons pack , I have SFG on a clean install with the new patch 4 installed . I've tried a few 3rd party aircraft adds and run the update weapons file for these planes as described by Bunyap in the readme for the new weps pack . The aircraft i have used show up a weapons list for loadout but all the AI flights have no loadout , tested using mig-25 , mig-23mld and harrier gr3 . Any help would be most appreciated as at the moment it seems like i cant use some of my regular aircraft , thanks .

The reason that you're experiencing that is because all the Soviet/Warsaw Pact weapons are no longer using NATO designations. For example: AA-8 is now the R-60, AA-10 is now the R-27, (etc.)

 

Just to help you out, this is my updated MiG-23MLD loadout:

 

 

// Station 1 = Left Glove Station

// Station 2 = Right Glove Station

// Station 3 = Left Fuselage Station

// Station 4 = Right Fuselage Station

// Station 5 = Centerline Station

Don't know what to tell you, Bigal1, other than to make sure that your individual loadout.ini files are using the right weapons nomenclature.

 

I have no issues there:

Same happens with me. I have copied all the loadout.ini, etc that comes with the weapons pack and my Yak 28P goes with absolutely no ordnance. Su-9A and 9B have only the suplementary tanks and no missiles!!!

Everybody keep in mind that not all add-on aircraft were included. Of the ones that were included, not all had updated loadout.ini files. I can't do it all... :)

 

All the information you need is in the Weapons_Pack.pdf supplied with the pack. I would suggest reading the section called "Modifying add-on aircraft for use with the Weapons Pack". There is also a section dealing with the loadout.ini towards the bottom.

 

If you really want to help out, send me the files after getting the aircraft set up correctly. I'll gladly include them as that would save myself and everybody else a lot of trouble.

 

If you need me to expand on anything in the documentation let me know, but pretty much everything I know is there.

 

Bigal,

 

Let me know if those files I sent you did the trick...

[+ojcar 157]

I have it!!! all you need is to read the .pdf and to copy the mods to the differents loadout.ini and (if neccessary), the plane.data files. Then, in some planes, you have to mod the plane.data files.

Exactly, you have to mod the attachmenttype. In some planes is =WP. You change into =SOVIET and you have access to all the ordnance
