*** LHA Assault Ship For SF2 ***

****************************************************************************

 

This is an update and repaint to Kesselbrut's LHA Assault Ship.

 

HrntFixr's HMLA 269 Cobra skin was used for the static Cobra's.

 

Please do not include in any payware mods.

 

****************************************************************************

*** Installation ***

****************************************************************************

 

Copy the contents of the LHA_SF2 folder into your SF2 MOD folder.

 

****************************************************************************

*** USE ***

****************************************************************************

 

Decals where included for the following ships, make sure "ShipNumber" is

correctly set:

 

• 
   
  
• LHA 1 USS TARAWA
  
• LHA 2 USS SAIPAN
  
• LHA 3 USS BELLEAU WOOD
  
• LHA 4 USS NASSAU
  
• LHA 5 USS PELELIU
  

 

AI aircraft do not use thrust vectoring, so there are workarounds used.

Catapults are used so they will get airborne, and arrestor cables are used

to get them back aboard.

 

The two parked AV-8B's are placed there via catapults 5 & 6. These

catapults have an infinate launch time. This means you have to have 6

members in your flight for them to show, and #5 & #6 will never take off,

unless you <ALT+N>.

 

Remove the two lines from LHA_DATA.INI if you don't want cat's 5 & 6:

 

• 
   
  
• SystemName[008]=Cat5
  
• SystemName[009]=Cat6
  

 

"Carrier_Take-Off Harrier.MSN" is included as an example. You have to have

the stock VietnamSEA terrain and the AV-8B_da aircraft for the mission to

show up in-game.

 

Finally, some of the textures are extremely large. Down-size them if

needed.

 

Post at CombatAce if you have any other questions.

Great Thank You!!

Thanks for this nice update mate.

 

Something I discovered in my May11 patch tests.

The parked aircraft take off if these two variables are not defined for cat5 & 6:

 

ReadyAnimationID=X

ReadyAnimationTime=999.0

Thanks, good to know. I hadn't checked that it was still working properly with the May 11th patch.
