pistitom Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Hi, is there any info, post on the f-14 fuel tanks? I can load them, I have the extra fuel, I can drop them, but on external view they're gone...can't see them...untill now I didn't even realize they were invisible... Any ideas? THX Quote
+ST0RM Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Sounds like the model isn't correctly listed in the data.ini file for that fuel tank. Check the spelling in this line: ModelName= -S Quote
pistitom Posted July 9, 2009 Author Posted July 9, 2009 I'm in trouble...there are two names for the tanks, Tank330_F14 and Tank33031TL and ...TR, in the loadout ini it's Tank330_F14 and I tried all versions in the aircraft data ini, none of them worked...in the weapon editor the Tank33031TL and ...TR were the model names...so...exactly what should stand where? sorry, it seems I got lost among these ini files...thx for Your patience Quote
+ST0RM Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 TL and TR are Tank Left and Tank Right. First off, what game are you using? What fuel tanks are you using? The MF ones or the newer ones released by Flaviodutra? Placing the correct tank on the correct weapon station side might be the issue or simply the wrong name. Quote

Wings over Europe NF4 with MF planes - don' t remember ever having downloaded other fuel tanks...this is how the .data.ini looks like [FuelStation1] SystemType=WEAPON_STATION StationID=15 StationGroupID=5 StationType=EXTERNAL AttachmentPosition=-1.5,-1.80,-0.87 AttachmentAngles=0.0,2.0,0.0 LoadLimit=900.00 AllowedWeaponClass=FT AttachmentType=NATO,USN ModelNodeName=TANK33031TL PylonMass= LaunchRailNodeName= MinExtentPosition= MaxExtentPosition= FuelTankName=Tank330_F14 [FuelStation2] SystemType=WEAPON_STATION StationID=16 StationGroupID=5 StationType=EXTERNAL AttachmentPosition=1.5,-1.80,-0.87 AttachmentAngles=0.0,2.0,0.0 LoadLimit=900.00 AllowedWeaponClass=FT AttachmentType=NATO,USN ModelNodeName=TANK33031TR PylonMass= LaunchRailNodeName= MinExtentPosition= MaxExtentPosition= FuelTankName=Tank330_F14 Quote
pistitom Posted July 10, 2009 Author Posted July 10, 2009 maybe I found the source of the problem,however don't know the solution..the tanks appear on the loadout screen under the name of VF-31 Tomcatters 267-gal Drop Tank..nowhere else have I found this name....Btw, the same problem occured with the F-16 tanks...the centerline tank is ok, but the 300-gal ctr FT Euro Camo is also invisible...good camouflage ...I think I put all files in the right places, added to weapondata.ini, saved with the editor...if no one else has this problem probably I did sg. wrong.....
