The Official Agostino Q & A Thread

[AGOSTINO]

this are 6 chaff/flare dispensers and not only one and based on the weapondata that you posted this pod is a old one or the one for SF1 because there is no SpecificStationCode= Chaff or Flare entry

 

so i would suggest to install the weapons that comes with the NF-5A SF2 pack and let overwrite if ask to that should solve this "problem"

 

regards ravenclaw_007

 

 

 

I know that are 6 chaff/flare, one was only for an example!!!

 

However, if you check in the weapon folder of the NF-5A SF2 pack, all the 6 chaff/flare_data.ini ARE NOT the SpecificStationCode=???

 

Thank you very much!!!!

 

 

 

[AGOSTINO]

There is not the CanopyGlass, but only for rear cockpit??

[AGOSTINO]

I have a trouble for Squadronlist.ini!!

 

 

The Squadronlist.ini should be in Flight and in Pilot Data folders,

 

or only in Flight or in Pilot Data folders??

[AGOSTINO]

Are the .tga files in the skins folders?

 

Yes of course!!!

 

missing textures?

 

 

 

 

 

Which files??

[+ravenclaw_007]

thanks for that info

 

here are the correct chaff flare pods

 

 

i will update the NF-5A pack as well

[+Fubar512]

Which files??

 

The pertinent ones, of course

[Stick]

pilot data only

[jomni]

I'm no modder but I suspect that it uses a texture in the Series 1 games so nothing is included in the add-on. But that texture is not in Seires 2 anymore so you need to provide that.

[AGOSTINO]

Why all this??

 

I have not created this thread!!!

 

And, I am not a spammer!!!

Its your very own database in case you have issues with the sim, you can find them all in one place.

Well we are pulling your legs just a little bit. I am glad you have a sense of humor. We find it refreshing to have someone around who has such great enthusiasm for the sim like we do.

I think all canberras we have the capacity built Transpose

Guns: 4× 20 mm Hispano Mk.V cannons mounted in rear bomb bay (500 rounds/gun), Or 2× 0.30 in (7.62 mm) machine gun pods.

 

 

Even if you're going to bomb a target at more than 20,000 feet will not need them.

[+MigBuster]

AFAIK None of the Canberras had internal guns - wing mounted or otherwise.

 

The Interdictor variants (designated B(I)) could carry a removable belly mounted Hispano 20mm gun pack in the rear part of the bomb bay.

 

 

The American B-57s on the other hand did have internal guns in the wings.
