Oh! Many thanks for your Mod...

 

I don't know if we have the "Arromanches"?

1stGen, so it'll need conversion to SF2ism

updated for latest patch levels

[+paulopanz 2,853]

Oh yes we have an updated Arromanches .... but the seafire must be navalized to use with CVs ....

 

 

....

MinBaseSize=SMALL

CarrierBased=TRUE <----------------- add these lines in data.ini here

CarrierParkSpan=7.00

CarrierParkAnimationID=

 

 

 

Sure: no hook or wingfold (due original model) but very pretty nice!

 

Maybe more numbers and no "Royal Navy" stencil?

 

I hope for a 1.1 version my friend!

add to AircraftData section (

 

Carrierbased=TRUE

CarrierParkSpan=11.25

CarrierParkAnimationID=

 

add to [Fuselage]

 

SystemName[004]=Tailhook

 

add at end of landing gear section:

 

[Tailhook]

SystemType=ARRESTER_HOOK

MaxDeflection=20

AnimationID=

Retractable=TRUE

DeployTime=2.0

ModelNodeName=TailHook

HookArmLength=1.563

AttachmentPosition=-0.0000,-1.9678,-0.5486

 

that should work

it's what I did on my 'home grown' version of a Seafire3 (RN) I previewed earlier this year (Nigel's is just as good!)

Cheers, Kevin! I hadn't realised I was duplicating your work though...

[Wrench 9,417]

did one a long time ago for the DAT's (FAA/BPF version), and one from TK's Mk9. didn't I post a screenie in the PropHeads Forum ... last year??

 

BUT .. you released yours!!!

Just to learn something Kevin, but why adding a tail hook if model hasn't?

[Wrench 9,417]

"vitural" tailhooks make them carrier-capable. 8-9 years ago, that's how we got the FJ-3 Fury's on the boat -- the game don't care if the physical part isn't there, as long as there's data ini entires

Roger! I will add

[ndicki 22]

Just updated both to make them carrier-capable and fit a hook.

 

The 'Royal Navy' serial number is totally authentic, and can be seen on many ex-RN aircraft sold to the French Navy, including this one. Until I work out how French serials actually work, I won't be bringing out further decals. Two weeks...
