Cockpit Makers: Help Me Out Here

[Guest pfunkmusik]

How can I get a radar screen to also show a TV display when using EO-guided weapons?

Edit the avionics.ini, adding these llines:

 

[TVDisplayData]

UseRadarTexture=TRUE

DisplayLimitLeft=8

DisplayLimitRight=119

DisplayLimitTop=6

DisplayLimitBottom=121

ApplyFilter=TRUE

FilterMaterial=DTVFilterMaterial

OverlayTexture=F-4E_DTV.tga

 

[DTVFilterMaterial]

DepthBufferCheck=FALSE

DepthBufferWrite=FALSE

RenderedInOrder=FALSE

AlphaTestEnabled=FALSE

CullMode=NO_CULL

LightEnabled=FALSE

SpecularEnabled=FALSE

EmissiveEnabled=FALSE

FogEnabled=FALSE

AmbientColor=1.000000,1.000000,1.000000,1.000000

DiffuseColor=1.000000,1.000000,1.000000,1.000000

ZBufferOffset=0.000000

PriorityLevel=1

BlendOp=MODULATE

NumTextureStages=1

TextureStage[01].TextureName=GreenTVFilter.bmp

TextureStage[01].MipMap=FALSE

TextureStage[01].FilterEnabled=FALSE

TextureStage[01].StageColorOp=TEXTURE

TextureStage[01].StageAlphaOp=DIFFUSE

 

 

this is, obviously, for an aircrft with radar (it comes from the F-4E). And oddly enough, there seem to be no entry for TV in the "AvaliableModes=" listing, so it may be safe to assume, as soon as you select the EO weapon, it switches over

When I do this, I get a white screen on the radar in the cockpit, but the display shows up and functions just fine in the top right-hand corner of the screen.

Avionics60 or Avionics70? There could be a difference there.

Shouldn't make any difference....but obviously, the E Rhino is using 60. The 70 works fine in TMFs Vipers for LGB, Mavs, etc

 

At least for me

Believe it or don't, changing the avionics .dll fixed it.

 

Cool. Hey, what about changing radar modes to include something like TWS mode?

Extract the Eagle's avioncs ini (or check TMFs) ... the info is all there

 

(how you all think I got the HUD and radar modes for the 104S-ASA-M mod?)
