+Wrench Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 trying to figure out how to have a pod that carries fuel, AND has recon cameras in it. anyone have any iders??? was thinking along the lines of the mirage combo tank/rocket launcher???? wrench kevin stein
+Wrench Posted July 8, 2011 Author Posted July 8, 2011 only in the data ini .... I don't think it'll work. my experiments for an MC-1 just gave me a drop tank, even after adding the recon camera. alternativly, i could add the camera to the aircraft, and just have the pod 'fakedout' for fuel
+daddyairplanes Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 i know several recon pods are housed in F-16 centerline tanks but i've never heard of them holding fuel as well... the HIAC-1 pod might've also been a 600 gal centerline for the Phantom but i'm not sure on that one and am at drill this weekend
+Wrench Posted July 9, 2011 Author Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) It's not for a 'modern' aircraft...hehehehehehehehe. it also carries about 2500 gallons for fuel. much needed for THIS bird!! Edited July 9, 2011 by Wrench
+ST0RM Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 Could you give the aircraft a TV camera, but fix the view from where the tank hangs?
+daddyairplanes Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 to see if i've figured it out, wont you hit the wall before orbit?
+Wrench Posted July 9, 2011 Author Posted July 9, 2011 yes, you can hit The Wall in the vertical (I've done it) ... but not in a Hustler decieded to go with a more stock loadout for recon
+daddyairplanes Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 oooooooooooooh.... i was trying to firgure out what hada friggin 2500 gal fuel tank in game!
xclusiv8 Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 A question. Do recon pods have any real use in game? Besides dead weight?
+Veltro2k Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 only in the data ini .... I don't think it'll work. my experiments for an MC-1 just gave me a drop tank, even after adding the recon camera. alternativly, i could add the camera to the aircraft, and just have the pod 'fakedout' for fuel that too. just point each one to the right object
Teras Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 A question. Do recon pods have any real use in game? Besides dead weight? nope
xclusiv8 Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 nope Then why bother with all this ini work? Why not make a fuel pod that only looks like a recon pod/fuel pod but put it as a fuel pod in the ini?? Or am i out of my mind here?
+Wrench Posted July 10, 2011 Author Posted July 10, 2011 yeah, that's pretty much what I figgured, too!!
