keith Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Guys Is there a way to simulate the dive brakes on the SBD? Perhaps if the sim could be modded to allow me to deploy the flaps above normal landing speeds? Quote
Guest Saganuay82 Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Change the flap speeds yourself in the data.ini. But that won't give you what you want. Quote
+Wrench Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Already been done by me...strange that I can't find it in on my site...guess I never uploaded the fix. Well, here it is. This will create 'virtural' divebrakes, as the model dosen't have the actual moving parts. Open your SBD_DATA.ini, and add the following sections where indicated....I'm also including the lighting fix, which is also in the data ini for the VS-41 skin set In Fuselage add, SystemName[011]=BottomGreenLight SystemName[012]=BottomAmberLight SystemName[013]=CenterAirbrake LeftWing add: SystemName[005]=LandingLight SystemName[006]=LeftAirbrakeUpper SystemName[007]=LeftAirbrakeLower RightWing add: SystemName[005]=RightAirbrakeUpper SystemName[006]=RightAirbrakeLower LeftOuterWing add: SystemName[003]=LeftUpperFormationLight RightOuterWing add: SystemName[003]=RightUpperFormationLight Below the LandingGear section, replace everything below with this, includes the light: // Airbrakes --------------------------------------------------------- [LeftAirbrakeUpper] SystemType=AIRBRAKE DeployTime=3.0 RetractTime=1.5 ModelNodeName=brake_left_upper AnimationID=4 DragArea=1.5 [LeftAirbrakeLower] SystemType=AIRBRAKE DeployTime=3.0 RetractTime=1.5 ModelNodeName=brake_left_lower AnimationID=4 DragArea=1.5 [RightAirbrakeUpper] SystemType=AIRBRAKE DeployTime=3.0 RetractTime=1.5 ModelNodeName=brake_right_upper AnimationID=4 DragArea=1.5 [RightAirbrakeLower] SystemType=AIRBRAKE DeployTime=3.0 RetractTime=1.5 ModelNodeName=brake_right_lower AnimationID=4 DragArea=1.5 [CenterAirbrake] SystemType=AIRBRAKE DeployTime=3.0 RetractTime=1.5 ModelNodeName=brake_center AnimationID=4 DragArea=1.5 // Lights --------------------------------------------------------- [bottomRedLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=0.00,-0.10,-0.68 LightSrcOffset=0.00,0.0,-1.50 Color=0.88,0.25,0.25 Brightness=0.05 LightSrcRange=0.3 CanFlash=FALSE FlashTime=0.6 [TopRedLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=0.00,-1.50,0.79 LightSrcOffset=0.00,0.00,0.0 Color=0.88,0.25,0.25 Brightness=0.05 LightSrcRange=0.3 CanFlash=TRUE FlashTime=0.6 [LeftPositionLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=-6.25,1.85,0.40 LightSrcOffset=-0.0,0.00,0.00 Color=0.88,0.25,0.25 Brightness=0.03 LightSrcRange=0.5 CanFlash=FALSE [RightPositionLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=6.25,1.85,0.40 LightSrcOffset=0.00,0.00,0.00 Color=0.25,0.88,0.25 Brightness=0.03 LightSrcRange=0.5 CanFlash=FALSE [TailLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=0.0,-5.10,0.20 LightSrcOffset=0.00,0.00,0.00 Color=0.88,0.88,0.88 Brightness=0.04 LightSrcRange=0.3 CanFlash=FALSE [LandingLight] SystemType=LIGHT Color=0.88,0.88,0.88 Brightness=0.10 Position=-2.9,1.75,-0.60 LightSrcOffset=2.6046,49.0560,3.50 LightSrcRange=150 LightRange=45.0 CanFlash=FALSE LightNodeName=LandingLight IsLandingLight=TRUE [LeftUpperFormationLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=-5.5,1.85,0.40 LightSrcOffset=-0.0,0.00,0.00 Color=0.1755,0.275,0.858 Brightness=0.04 LightSrcRange=0.5 CanFlash=FALSE [RightUpperFormationLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=5.5,1.85,0.40 LightSrcOffset=0.00,0.00,0.00 Color=0.1755,0.275,0.858 Brightness=0.04 LightSrcRange=0.5 CanFlash=FALSE [bottomGreenLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=0.00,-0.20,-0.68 LightSrcOffset=0.00,0.0,-1.50 Color=0.25,0.88,0.25 Brightness=0.05 LightSrcRange=0.3 CanFlash=FALSE [bottomAmberLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=0.00,-0.30,-0.65 LightSrcOffset=0.00,0.0,-1.50 Color=0.9126,0.8814,0.0429 Brightness=0.05 LightSrcRange=0.3 CanFlash=FALSE The divebrakes work with the airbrake key. This same fix was applied the the A-36 Apache, as well. Happy Bombing! Wrench kevin stein Quote
