APEX PROBLEM WOI

[tomas22 0]

Hy guys! I can't use Apex A nor Apex C radar guided missiles in Mig-23MF . However, Heat seeking apex B and D are available. Do you have any idea about how to solve it??

 

Many thanks....

did u put the weapon in ur weapons folder

In the MiG-23MF data ini, check to see whether these match. If they do then you would also have to check the weapon data.ini. Overwrite only if you find a discrepancy-please save the two files before tinkering with them!!!Then run the weapons editor, and save as prompted. On an aside, I don't like the Apex very much-requires a lot of psychic power to score a hit!Oh and I'm using the MF weapons pack-just to be certain that you have the correct model references with the data given below.

Hi Devil and Stick.

First at all, Apex A, B, C and D are stock weapons, since the have come included with my WOI as aphid's as well.

What I want to do is to supply stock syrian MIG-23 MF with aphid and apex missiles for Lebanon Campaign instead boring atoll. I've modified stock MIG-23MF loadout.ini in order to do that.

So, both aircraft and missiles are stock supplied. Apex B and D can be loaded without problems, but radar guided missiles are missing.

 

Beyond that, I've downloaded Miraga factory Mig-23 MLD and this aircraft can load radar guided apex without problem. We can conclude there is no weapon problem.

Stick, here you have my MIG-23 apex stations included in my MIG-23 MF data ini.

I've modified apex missiles and they are WP and Soviet type allowed weapons.

Mig-23MF loadout also state apex stations as ID=8 and ID=9

 

Just in Case, here you have MIG-23 MLD mirage factory apex stations:

If you have any idea please let me know.

Sirs,

 

I've modified MIG-23MFdata ini deleting "SpecificStationCode=AA7" and now radar guided apex can be loaded by AI Syrian Migs in single missions and Lebanon.

 

I don't understand why but it works!!

 

Thanks

 

Tomas

 

 

 

[Wrench 9,801]

Did you add WP to the AttachmentTypes=???

 

make sure it reads

 

SOVIET,WP

 

try that

Wrench,

 

all apex were modified by me as WP and Soviet weapons, but the problem dissapeared when i deleted "SpecificStationCode=AA7".

I don't know why this sentence affected only radar guided apex while heat seeking ones were loaded OK.

 

Thanks for your help guys.

 

Best regards

Check your weapondata.

 

There should be SpecificStationCode for Apex missiles. Remove them so that any SAHM weapon station can load it if the weight, diameter and length are small enough.

Hi HoneyFox,

 

Could you please let me know how to remove that? I've looked my weapondata editor and I couldn't find any Specifstationcode item for apex missile.

 

Thanks!!!

It is a problem with the TK's stock MiG-23MF.

TK set the ApexWeaponstations with the SpecificStationCode=AA-7, but forgot in the weapondata.ini to designate the station code AA-7 to the Apex missile. So the game engine does not find a missile which can loaded on the ApexWeaponStations. To solve this you can either edit the weapondata.ini with weaponeditor and put the station code into the AA-7A - AA-7D or you edit the MiG-23MF.data and make it as the lines show below:
