[noob 0]

Sorry, question again.

 

Can i add rwr screen to the A-6 cockpit? i have tried adding [RWR] section to cockpit.ini, which copied from F4M's but seems don't work.

 

thanks again.

Do a search over at C5 you can find the answer there.

From my understanding, you can add RWR in place of the radar, which means you can't have both at the same time.

My post at C5's. This replaces the clock with an RWR. The radar still works as before.

 

********************************************

 

Here's the minimum .ini changes:

 

To A-6A_Cockpit.ini, change the clock needle sections like MoonJumper said, and add the RWR section:

 

[ClockHour]

Type=CLOCK_HOUR

NodeName=needle_clock01

MovementType=POSITION_Z

Set[01].Position=-100.0

Set[01].Value=0.0

Set[02].Position=-99.0

Set[02].Value=1.0

 

[ClockMinute]

Type=CLOCK_MINUTE

NodeName=needle_clock02

MovementType=POSITION_Z

Set[01].Position=-100.0

Set[01].Value=0.0

Set[02].Position=-99.0

Set[02].Value=1.0

 

[ClockSec]

Type=CLOCK_SECOND

NodeName=needle_clock03

MovementType=POSITION_Z

Set[01].Position=-100.0

Set[01].Value=0.0

Set[02].Position=-99.0

Set[02].Value=1.0

 

[RWR]

Type=RWR

NodeName=Clock

 

 

*******************************************************

 

In the A-6A_Avioncs.INI, edit the RWRTexture line:

 

RWRTexture=cockpit\A-6A_rwr.bmp

 

You'll also need to grab a RWR.bmp from another aircraft, drop it into your A-6's cockpit folder, and rename it to A-6A_rwr.bmp. I used the one included in AD's A-7E, but any should work.

You're welcome.

You're welcome.

 

thanks aggie, the rwr now working great, however is there a chance to make the screen to be bit smaller so the "radar source dot" at the lower left corner won't be blocked by the knob?

I am trying put together something that simulates an F-8J, it has an RWR.

 

I have tried to do what it says here to the F-8 files, but it's not working.

 

Can someone hold my hand?

Paste the following into your F-8e avionics.ini:

 

[RWR]

Type=3_RING

AirSearchTexture=RWRair1.tga

AirTrackTexture=RWRair2.tga

AirLockTexture=RWRair2.tga

GroundSearchTexture=RWRground1.tga

GroundTrackTexture=RWRground2.tga

GroundLockTexture=RWRground2.tga

SearchPosition=0.90

TrackPosition=0.55

LockPosition=0.15

SearchSize=0.075

TrackSize=0.075

LockSize=0.075

SearchFlash=FALSE

TrackFlash=TRUE

TrackFlashRate=0.2

LockFlash=TRUE

LockFlashRate=0.1

TrackSound=RWRTrackSound.wav

LockSound=RWRLockSound.wav

 

[RWRTrackSound]

Priority=HIGH

3DSound=FALSE

Looped=TRUE

NumBuffers=1

 

[RWRLockSound]

Priority=HIGH

3DSound=FALSE

Looped=TRUE

NumBuffers=1

 

Paste the following into your F-8e cockpit.ini:

 

Instrument[038]=RWR

 

[ClockHour]

Type=CLOCK_HOUR

NodeName=needle_clock01

MovementType=POSITION_Z

Set[01].Position=-100.0

Set[01].Value=0.0

Set[02].Position=-99.0

Set[02].Value=1.0

 

[ClockMinute]

Type=CLOCK_MINUTE

NodeName=needle_clock02

MovementType=POSITION_Z

Set[01].Position=-100.0

Set[01].Value=0.0

Set[02].Position=-99.0

Set[02].Value=1.0

 

[ClockSec]

Type=CLOCK_SECOND

NodeName=needle_clock03

MovementType=POSITION_Z

Set[01].Position=-100.0

Set[01].Value=0.0

Set[02].Position=-99.0

Set[02].Value=1.0

 

[RWR]

Type=RWR

NodeName=Gauge_Clock

 

And don't forget to copy and paste the A-4's rwr.bmp into your cockpit folder and rename it F-8E_rwr.bmp. Couldn't get this to work until I opened the F-8e Cpit1.lod and discovered the clock is named Gauge_Clock, not clock, like it is in the A-6a.

 

It isn't pretty, because of the shape it's trying to fill, but it works for me, and it's functional. Hope this helps.

There is a addon of a A-6A with a visual RWR
