Will there be a dedicated cockpit ?

You mean as opposed to this one ..?

 

Actually yes, there are already different cockpits for the RNoAF versions and maybe I'll do a dedicated one for the NF-5a ..

It's in the pipeline, I'll be making a second .. third .. fourth .. fifth (you get the idea :)  ) attempt to get the nose right later after I've completed the other versions.

My thanks to you for such dedication to this project. The F-5 is really a beauty!

Guys I'm stuck, I'm trying to figure out the data entries for the chaff/flare dispensers on the NF-5a.  The physical dispensers are built into the model (as are the fuel tanks - no problems with those thank God!!) and I've set up them up in their own little weapon folders; the problem is finding the correct entries for them in the weapon stations part of the data file. Here's what i've got - which is not working ..

[Dispenser pod 1]
SystemType=WEAPON_STATION
StationID=8
StationGroupID=5
StationType=EXTERNAL
AttachmentPosition=0.56,-4.4,0.58
AttachmentAngles=0.0,0.0,-40.0
LoadLimit=100
AllowedWeaponClass=EP
AttachmentType=NATO
SpecificStationCode=Flare
ModelName=
ModelNodeName=
PylonMass=
PylonDragArea=
ExternalPodName=F5a_Flare
ExternalPodNodeName=Dispenser_L

[Dispenser pod 2]
SystemType=WEAPON_STATION
StationID=9
StationGroupID=6
StationType=EXTERNAL
AttachmentPosition=-0.75,-4.4,0.35
AttachmentAngles=0.0,0.0,220.0
LoadLimit=100
AllowedWeaponClass=EP
AttachmentType=NATO
SpecificStationCode=Chaff
ModelName=
ModelNodeName=
PylonMass=
PylonDragArea=
ExternalPodName=F5a_Chaff
ExternalPodNodeName=Dispenser_R

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the reply, from what I can see, the Phimat chaff dispenser on the Mirage is a separate model.  I'd be looking for data entries for one that is incorporated into the aircraft model .. sigh!  It's these little things that cause so much trouble!!!

You should post the ini of the actual "weapon" too, maybe the problem is there.

ModelNodeName= did you try this ? 

 

F5a_Chaff    /  Dispenser_R

F5a_Flare /  Dispenser_L    

how these two are related in 3 d model? how do you want it to be shown.. because that part I don't understand... If its just pack with chaffs/flares why not use model node name....same as with any other pod...

unless I don't understand how chaffs flares work on tiger

I tried using modelNodeName as well, but I still can't get the chaff/flares to show up as options (weapon stations in the loudout screen in the game

Pure beauty...

 

we do have a RF nose but the dimensions of it are wrong , i´m currently working on a shorter more correct nose

this is the old nose we have , the new one will look much better ( i hope )
