New Le Prieur Rockets for the FE-Addon Spad VII 180

New Le Prieur Rockets for the FE-Addon Spad VII 180

 

I did them in a bit of a weird way to…

Stop the AI jettisoning them

Give them an upward trajectory on launch

 

Caveats

You can’t launch them in groups or all at once (they seemed to be historically bulk fired)

Never seen the AI use them (did the AI use them pre Addon?)

They are REALLY inaccurate, on purpose; use a lot of them from about 150 metres…

 

Included are a:

New Spad_180_data.ini (with the weapon stations added)

New Spad_180.ini (with the loadout file added)

New Spad_180_Loadout.ini

Le_Prieur_map.bmp

Le_Prieur_Rocket.LOD

Le_Prieur_Tube.LOD

 

REMEMBER TO BACKUP YOUR FILES BEFORE USING THESE ONES

 

You will have to extract the WEAPONDATA.INI and the WEAPONDATA.DAT from the ObjectData.CAT if you haven’t already and place them in a folder called “Weapons” in the “objects” folder (you may have to make the “Weapons” folder)

Place the Le_Prieur_map.bmp, Le_Prieur_Rocket.LOD, and Le_Prieur_Tube.LOD in the “Weapons” folder has well

The Spad_180XXX.ini files go in the “Aircraft/SPAD7_180” folder

Open the WEAPONDATA.INI in a text editor and add to the bottom

/////////////////////////////////////////////////

 

Note [WeaponData0XX] should be sequential with any thing you already have there

After you have saved that, Open the extracted WEAPONDATA.INI in the NEW weapons editor and hit save

That should be all

 

 

If you want to add the rockets to another craft using the Spad_180_data.ini as an example

 

Add these Systems to the bottom of the appropriate wing sections (SystemName[XXX]= should be sequential with systems already there)

 

[TopWingMidLeft] for the Spad

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

SystemName[001]=leftWingRocketRail

SystemName[002]=WingRockets02

SystemName[003]=WingRockets04

SystemName[004]=WingRockets06

SystemName[005]=WingRockets08

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

 

[TopWingMidRight] for the Spad

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

SystemName[001]=RightWingRocketRail

SystemName[002]=WingRockets01

SystemName[003]=WingRockets03

SystemName[004]=WingRockets05

SystemName[005]=WingRockets07

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

 

In the Weapon Stations section add these stations (Weapon Stations usually go after the gun entries)

The two first stations are for the non-jettisonable launch tubes (graphic only)

The Attachment Position will vary with differing aircraft

AttachmentPosition= -3.04,0.50,0.05 equals 3.04m to the left, 0.5m to the front, and 0.05m above the aircrafts CG

The RightWingRocketRail is exactly the same except the first number (3.04) is positive, meaning to the right

 

The following 8 Weapon Stations are for the rockets themselves

Their Attachment Positions are similar to the first two EXCEPT:

Left and right are the same as the first 2 and should alternate positive/negative (eg 3.04 for WingRockets01 and -3.04 for WingRockets02)

Forward/backward are also the same except add 0.01 (eg 0.51 vs. 0.50)

Up and down, add 0.017 for the first two (WingRockets01, WingRockets02)

Add 0.137 too the next two (WingRockets03, WingRockets04)

Add 0.257 too the next two (WingRockets05, WingRockets06)

Add 0.377 too the last two (WingRockets07, WingRockets08)

 

All other values shouldn’t need changing unless you already have some weapon stations listed (you may need to change the StationID / StationGroupID)

Enjoy and feel free to mod it and repost it for other aircraft :yes:
