Tha Damn SA-7s SFP1

[Misty FAC]

They are prolific - they are EVERY damn where and I have NEVER been shot at by one - never once have I ever seen a frikkin SA-7 fire since I bought this fine sim.

 

I have one in my ground objects - think it came from Paskos SAM & ground object pack. I am running the patch before the Oct 08 SFP1 patch

 

All they do is kneel - pivot - and watch with that stoopidazz look on their frikkin commie faces.

 

Perplexed.

 

Yep - I searched. Found nothing.

 

If anyone can give me a heading to follow I would appreciate it. Off to get a scotch & soda.

 

Thanks !

 

Cheers !

Make sure in the SA7_DATA.ini that it says ShowMissile=TRUE

and you need to adjust the missile entry in the weaponsdata.ini file to get them to shoot.

Gepard posted some stats for the FIM-92A (which it uses) and I used FC's stinger, and still not getting fired at. Conversely the Stingers don't fire either, has to be some settings that need to be really tweaked.. And I forgot where he posted them

The values from my Afghanistan terrain follow below. I got some Strelas in the tail when flying with the Mi-24 along the Jalalabad road.

Thanks man!

[Misty FAC]

Thanks Gep ! I will give it a shot !

 

I have been getting Stingers fired at sense installing the Hardened Stinger Site mod. Also using all the other Air Defense mods as well.

smple question: anyone have this problem after set show missile=true?

 

 

I solved this only by sa-7L.lod patching.

Strange... Nobody wishes to answer my question

 

My RussianSAM pack is ready, the problem with sa-7,14,16,18 (I use SA-7L for all) - the only thing, that prevents it to upload.

I think

show missile=true

means the missles are shown at the model (so the correct value for a missle launched from a "tube" should be "false"?)...

You don't need it to see the missle inflight.

[+lindr2]

Similar you not understand a situation: if the option show missile=true is not SET, the missile does not shoot.

But because of the POSSIBLE ERROR in LOD & INI, I see that on a picture, I wish to learn simply: others see the same, that I, or not.

[+Gepard]

I think you can't solve that problem. As you already said: if you set show missile=true then you have the strange looking, if you set show missile=false the SAM will not fire.

Not really satisfying, but in game you will not very often come so close to a SA-7 to see this mistake.

I solved this problem be 'patching' LOD. & edit ini. Thank you for answer!
