striker01 Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 Hi all, I noticed a probably a small bug in this add-on. Due to a bombing mission I had to destroy a plane on the ground. I had to hit with bombs and 63 hit with the canon but the plane was still alive. What kind of material is that plane made from? Is there something to change in the inni or data files? :casstet: Regards Striker01 Quote
+Deuces Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 striker01- it's no bug. The targets are simply placed for practice. The a/c happen to be an object Bunyap created for the range simply because there are no static a/c by default in the game. There is no destroyed lod done for it. The range was not designed for regular missions with objectives. It's all just to hone your A2G skills. Quote
striker01 Posted July 10, 2003 Author Posted July 10, 2003 Hi Deuces, I understand that but when I destroy for example a tank or a fuel truck as a primary target I get my points and a well done. When I have to destroy the planes I get a mission failed at the end of the mission. Regards Striker01 Quote
+Deuces Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 Have a look at the range target values Mitch has fooled around with in this post near the bottom and see if it helps any. http://oldsite.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/board...c;f=55;t=005622 Quote
striker01 Posted July 10, 2003 Author Posted July 10, 2003 Hi Deuces, thanks alot. I will check that out. Striker01 Quote
+ext Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 Deuces - I downloaded a mission aways back where you destroyed aircrat on the runway. I modified it a couple times with any plane I wanted. When they made the mission they put the fuel in the plane to zero so it could not move. I do not know if this could help but could it be possible to modify your range and put such an aircraft with no fuel, that way when you bomb the plane it will explode. This might even be a dumb question but thought I would ask if it could improve the targets in your range. Very Nice Work and thanks! Quote
striker01 Posted July 10, 2003 Author Posted July 10, 2003 Hi ext, if that would work it could make also the airbases lock a bit more busier. Striker01 Quote

+Deuces Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 It would probably work except there is no actual enemy airfield . The only game airfield is the friendly base. The dirt runway at the range is part of the terrain. Now there is a city called out and you could add an airfield if so inclined :) The range is open to anyone that would like to mod it further. That was kind of the idea. To give others a wide open map to do anything they want. It's a real good area for guys wanting to try some modding out, to do so. Quote
+WOLF257 Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 I've been using the range a lot to test stuff when I don't want to have to be dodging Migs and SAM's. WOLF Quote
BERNARD1943 Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 :D :D Wolf, your first post at Biohaz!! Welcome, great place here Quote
+WOLF257 Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 Thanks Bernard, Was not able to post here before due to a misunderstanding on my part of how the sign-in data base worked. WOLF Quote
