Opening canopy of aircraft?

[Madprof 0]

Was wondering if there was a way to open the aircraft's canopy once the plane has landed and has stopped,and what configeration of buttons would open it.Would appreciate any help please,thanks.

1st it depens on the 3d Model.

If the canopy is animated, you can open it.

that are data.ini entries of the Aircraft_data.ini.

Normally the function for the animations is set to the animation keys.

you have to set the animation keys in your options.

for example: shift+1 <- for animation 1, shift+2 <- for animation 2 and so on....

hope it helps you...

Not true. The stock F-4E canopies have opened at the very least since TK implimented the additional animation keys.

CanopyAnimationID=3 For all the TW F-4 models.

Have downloaded the mod Soulfreak but there is no 'Read Me' file just a blank notepad,and I'm not sure where the files included have to go,if I can get this working this is just what I want,any ideas?

[+Soulfreak 6,351]

if you extrakt the files there are several aircraft folders.

you only have to copy the data.ini files out of this folders in your aircraft folder f.e. A-4b_data.ini into your woe/objects/aircraft/a-4b folder....

hope that helps.

but be careful, there are some aircraft folders in the dl data that are from wov & woi....

Put it in the individual aircrafts folder, like the F-4J_data ini goes in the F-4J folder, let it overwrite it, and then ur set, set the animations in the options menu in game and play around with the animation buttons till u find out which one it is.

On a related note. My Mirage F1's have open canopies in flight. I found the entry in the data.ini

[Canopy]
SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE
DeploymentMethod=AUTOMATIC_SPEED
Setting[1].Angle=45.0
Setting[1].DeployValue=4.0 
Setting[1].RetractValue=1.5 
MaxDeflection=45.0
MinDeflection=0.0
ControlRate=0.2
ModelNodeName=Canopy
ReverseModelOrientation=TRUE

 

What exactly should I change?
