A Pleaasant Surprise Indeed! A Good Bug? Carpet Bombing?

[Guest Eject]

Hi all, as had been elaborated elsewhere since I had got(ten) this "virus":grin:game air battle (it's the prime reason we r hooked to it, yes?), I have kept doing some "experiments" with the game, tweaked here and there over the inside/contents of some certain aircrafts both prop or otherwise, the inis (since I do not know how to even open the dlls), simply to add what someone here has termed as spice. Yeah! Man, I have managed to spice-up my squadron of MiG-17s. 19s, and 21s! The latter even could take off using only some 300m long (yet nothing compares with the IAF Herc with 4 rocket boosters in RAID ON ENTTEBE Uganda years ago, whose pilot managed to get airborne using only 50m AGL of the Kampala's airbase!), with lots of weaps in it! Hi, Dave, no worry anymore about missing such Migs Someone reminded me that whatever plane would not fly w/o a cockpit! Aah! So simple! This info really triggered me to do some tweaks upon those Sov jets and their variants for several nations.

 

My tweaking is not confined to just the planes/jets and other much more advance birds. Weapons, especially the A-to-A, short-, medium- or long-range ones did not escape my range of "tortures" (Oops! Real sensitive and secretive word nowadays should anyone dare to search!).

 

Briefly, I always wanted to make the kills swiftly, and silently without being bothered by the growls of some missiles! So, you've got the answer mates -- this crazy, sadistic guy of the East did some "boosting" to certain IRMs, SAHM, AHM.

 

Those who played the Russ or Sov site and its clients may already be familiar with the R-13R, the long yet very "sticky" (I mean thin one, looks more like a bamboo stick, correct?) and carries such a small amount of explosives. It is an IRM, with a pathetic FlagsCapability tho it had been around since 1960, so cannot be categorized as an ancient one. So, u guess it right Wrence and Dave and Fubar and other modding gurus; I did the crazy tweak as well upon it. And, the result was really awesome!

 

Why should I bothered to carry the larger, and heavier AAs (Chinese SD-10 very deadly v ALL USAF/USN/UNMC/Brits/NATO's and IAF's advance jets of the Cold War era, and the larger long-range Sov AA?) when I have now the R-13R-Atoll C in my WOE?

 

I really do not recall what I have done chiefly to some of my Terrains in WOE (I've got 14 terrains in it folks, that include the indispensable GermanyCE!), yet I experienced a very strange development in particular in HIMALAYA, ISRAEL, DARWIN, TIMOR, and KASHMIR when I did a Strike MSN to each of these Terr.

 

Ooops, not really Strike MSNs, instead especially over Darwin also Taiwan the Anti-Ship MSNs. Having smashed at least 4-to-6 Cargo Ships and Patrol boats that showered me frantically with their cannons, and my Maverics had been exhausted, while no enemy jets were around yet, I for a kick bank towards the land area that is not too far. Clicked Back-Space to invoke my R-13Rs (left the remaining two lethal R-77 for any possible F-4Es or the Ausie F-18s).

 

Next I lowered the alt to some 1K meters to avoid the deadly rapid-fire air def units. My radar found a Chaparral and a Stinger SAM. Woosh! I released the already tweaked IRM to AHM (represented by Num 10 in Weapdat, yes?) towards, first the SAM. In nanosecond it smashed the SAM, I could see the effect.

 

But, to my really pleasant surprise, in less the a half second, the entire parked F-16s, Fuel Trucks, Hangars, Fuel Tall Drums, and rests of enemy ground objects which are target-able, ALL exploded!!! Even the ammo bunkers caught fire when the also exploded.

 

The effect was really awesome folks, too bad such rare event is not record-able in this sim. Well, I took only two skrinshots of it.

 

In brief, the R-13R, and only this very one folks, nanosecond after it hit the target, the explosion of the target brought fort a chain reaction of same explosion upon the surrounding ground targets! Imagine man, the whole area of the airbase exploded!!!

 

Is it a bug or what?

 

So, I moved to two other Terrains, GermanyCE never been tried yet. The occurrence were consistent in that such also happened in these other two terrains when I smashed NOT Prime Targets in the area. Yet, same chain-reaction did not happen when the R-13R was used v the enemy planes. Strange, yes?

 

The same also occurred when one patrol boat, not the Prime Target (the Prime Target being six cargo ships), was smashed by my only weap left since all four of my AGM-65D2 did not even make a dent on the Prime Target, the Royal something SuB-marine! Who the hell sent it there around Timor anyway? Heheheee...

 

Re the smashing of just one Patrol Boat at the time, to my surprise the rest of the boats, four of them, exploded as well......

 

Wrench, kindly give it a try to be able to give some light, to me at least, as to why such have been happening. Tweak just one R-13R to AHM with FlagsCapability same as the R-77 or SD-10 or the USAF AIM-120B or C. And smashed some ground targets, particularly the enemy's deadly Stinger SAM.

 

Check if same things happens.

(Hmm, I could hear you mumbled, "Why the Hell must I di it Eject?")

 

I shall leave it as it has been since I did the tweak on my R-13R only. I shall test it in GermanyCE Terrain.

 

Thank u so much for ur time and interest. I do not regard such a tweak a cheat. Who cheat whom anyway? I do not want to go On-line dog-fighting others or doing other MSNs.....

 

Btw, I one Single MSN, I managed to drop even the most (currently) advance super-jets of the USAF, the F-35. Their pilots have met their creators, they did not have the tme to eject. Fired mid-air, man......the deadly, "enhanced" R-13R:bye::bye:

 

p.s.

Forgot about this: In one such MSN, not Strike, before I banked to the land area to seek my next victims, having finished this side killings I got 5800 Score! Why? The exploded airbase brought about not less than 98 people very dead roasted by the inferno!

 

That did not include the deaths the ships, 14 people or so, cargo and patrol boats. The exploded one air-def near the airbase, it seems to me, was contagious. Much more lethal than the Swine Flew, hehehe....... in just less than 45 minutes more than 110 enemy souls were perished....... virtually. God must've shaken "His" "Head":no: Eject I Shall roast you in Hell later!

perhaps there are some nuke effects associated with that R-13R ...

Thanx for ur speedy reply Crusader. I really do not know..... Yet, I enjoyed it very mush. With NUKE, at such close distance, I would have been turned to ashes as well I believe.....

Re the topic I posted, I just spent some 40 minutes to Strike Prime Targets in Germany, SAME results! The enhanced/tweaked R-13R by me, again, created havoc in Germany, also in ANW Terrain. So, I did some investigation to my Weapdat.ini, directly went to R-13R. I just made minor changes, i.e., CapabilityFlags equalized with that of the deadly Chinese SD-10, and of course its IRM status changed as well to AHM (Num. 13 in Guidence) in the list. As well, I added the weight and a little bit of its explosive?

 

In one Strike MSN, from less than 20Km away I shot first the nearby reinforced, hidden Stinger SAM, some 40 meters away from the Primary Target the Fuel Tanks. Seconds later, I could see the R-13R found its home, and it exploded. Nano-second later, the Fuel Tanks exploded too So did some ground targets in the Base.

 

So, I saved my GBU-12B, two of them under the plane's bellu in Centerline a bit to the front, yet no hindrance to the front landing gear, for it is retracted forward wise.

 

Next, under some heavy flaks showers, I banked to the Left after my radar picked a target at my 10 O'clock some five kms away. Again, the second R-13R created inferno in the base!, banked left again, I saw tens if large fuel tanks. Aha! It's an oil fields. Third R-13R aimed at one hidden Stinger SAM at my 2 o'clock some 12 Kms away. And WHAT?! The entire oil field exploded, it looked mor like giants, burning trees, a jungle of fire! Only seven of the oil tanks remained, when all of a sudden two Stinger slammed onto me, and when I attempted to duck, the smashed only my tail .... bailed out, and became a POW!

 

In AWARD screen this waas the result: 280 something people were roasted! Very dead, man.....

 

A very quick Strike MSN. No enemy jets were in sight..... watched all my men RTB.

 

I really do not know why this happened, and I suspect such also will occur in my other 12 Terrains....

 

I do not find it amusing anymore, so perhaps I shall just roll-back the R-13R to its first staus, just so so IRM....
