3rd party seats in stock a/c?

[Streakfalcon]

I know how to change pilots and seats in 3rd party a/c and I know how to change pilots in stock a/c but can you change the stock seat in a 3rd wire a/c?

if you can edit a data ini....

 

yes

 

(extraction will be necessary)

[Streakfalcon]

Yes indeed I can, Specifically Im trying to spiff up the cavern of a cockpit in the stock Canberra6. Ive got the data ini handy.Im all ears Kevin.....

[+Wrench]

this is from the SF2 Canberra B.2...

 

[Pilot]

SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT

PilotModelName=

SetCockpitPosition=TRUE

Position=-0.24,4.74,0.69

 

SeatModelName=

Position= <---insert seat name and positions here --add those 2 lines

 

MinExtentPosition=-0.49, 4.20,-0.42

MaxExtentPosition= 0.01, 5.21, 0.79

CanopyNodeName=

HasArmor=TRUE

ArmorMaterial=STEEL

Armor[FRONT].Thickness=6

Armor

.Thickness=6

Armor

.Thickness=6

Armor[REAR].Thickness=6

Armor[bOTTOM].Thickness=6

 

 

BUT... it appears the seat is 'molded' into the aircraft lod. Might cause some problems!

[Streakfalcon]

Ill give it a shot. I wonder if I need to add a SystemType=PilotSeat to the nose?

[Streakfalcon]

ok Heres what works so far...I added a system to the nose, then added a copilot, but instead of a pilot model, I used a seat.

I just had to play with the seat position to get it right.

Sheesh, isnt this what I pay you modders top dollar for? ;) thanks for your help
