xclusiv8 Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 (edited) So ive been playing around with this setting and i cant really figure out what it means. For example, if i set it to 10. What does that mean ingame? I am trying to find out at which range to fire my gun onto ground targets and right now its way to close since those pesky AAA always get me when i get in close. Thanx for your time and help! Oh yeah, while am at it. I downloaded the F5E from the SF2 download section and am running it in a merged install with the latest patch. The afterburner and jet engine textures arent working. Cant figure out why.. Edited June 24, 2010 by xclusiv8 Quote
macelena Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 About the issue with the F-5E, i made the conversion to SF2, and here it works fine. I don´know what did i do wrong, but if somebody comes out with a solution to your problem, PM me and i´ll try to fix it in the downloadable file, for whatever you need, tell me. Quote
xclusiv8 Posted June 25, 2010 Author Posted June 25, 2010 I think it has something to do with the new shader effects. Im no expert though. So dont take my word for it Quote
+MigBuster Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 What setting in which file are you changing? Quote
+Wrench Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 I've been waiting for someone to make a comment about drooping gun barrels.... afaik, gun depressoin, in the game as real life , is measure in Mils. What exactly those are, I've never learned. Degrees of arc? anyway, here's the section from the F-4E_78's cockpit ini that speaks to it: [GunsightFront] HasGunsight=TRUE GunsightMilSize=50 GunsightName=F-4e_sight.tga GunsightRollTabsName=F-4e_rolltabs.tga GunsightRangeBarName=F-4e_rangebar.tga RangeBarOrientation=6TO12 RangeBarHasGunRange=TRUE RangeBarUseWeaponRange=FALSE RangeBarMax=6096.0 RangeBarMin=914.4 RangeBarMaxGun=2032.1 a colored rangebar on thegunsight, it 'flows around the reticle RangeBarMinGun=304.8 LeadComputing=TRUE MinLeadRange=300 <-- MaxLeadRange=1300<-- DefaultLeadRange=500 <-- these 3 speak to gunsight lead, probably in meters MaxDepression=245 <-- drop down for better sight picture when bombing DefaultDepression=50 <--gunsight more or less center on bullet stream rule of thumb: when enemy a/c's wingspan fills the reticle side-to-side, SHOOT!!! No real difference from WW2 stuff. (well, bombers WILL be bigger than fighters, obviously! <gr>) hope that helps! wrench kevin stein Quote
