CCIP in game code for new patches

[bernard]

OK, might sound like a dumb question but if the new patches bring the game code up to date for SF & WoV, does that mean that aircraft in these games can have CCIP as in WoE?

 

Could anyone who has WoE extract and look in the cockpit.ini of an aircraft that has it and give us any ideas?

You will have to add CCIP ot whatever plane yourself. It just doesnt put it in there. And most of the planes in the SF didnt have CCIP so it would be dumb to add CCIP to an F-100 since it never had it.

You misunderstand my question. I don't want to stick CCIP on SF stock aircraft and I know that the patch doesn't add it to all aircraft, I was just asking from the point of view of understanding the necessary .ini files for modding and developing stuff, wanting to know if anyone had worked out where the bits that make CCIP work on the A-10 in WoE were located in terms of the file structure and how CCIP is integrated to the game architecture eg. is it one of the gunsight modes in the cockpit ini or an integral part of the cockpit model.

Well,

 

The folks at Check 6 have it figured out. They have the A-10 CCIP capable in their MegaPack.

 

I took a peek through the Avionics.ini on the Vista Beta laptop I am testing it on. You need a TGA, but the setup

for the INI looks completely different. I am going to try to get the new A-7F super SLUF CCIP'd, but I've a feeling

I will see the desktop a lot during my experiments...

AFAIK, the A-7D was the first aircraft that had both a HUD, and CCIP bombing mode for it. It went into service in late 1970, and saw its first action in Vietnam in 1972.

Cheers for the info Spectre. I am downloading it now and will be straight to work learning how it works.

I'm thinkingyour right also the RNZAF has huds on the A-4's they use today and the German F-4F ICE Phantom is also quite modern so you may need to put a time limit to keep it acurate but adding a hud to an F-4 or A-4 is not insane just not correct for the Vietnam Era.

Me thinks the A6 had CCIP, bring on Flight Of The Intruder and those damn truck parks I could never hit even with CCIP. Have read that you cant have ground radar with CCIP it would be a shame to lose Terrain Avoidance though I dint know how useful it is in the game.

Me knows that no A-6 had CCIP (or HUD displays, for that matter) during the Vietnam war

I stand corrected, now all I need is someone to sit next to me and work the DIANE! :)
