I'm having an issue with the EMI recon pod. It has its own pylon, yet the aircraft's normal pylon is still present, and the EMI recon pod 'hangs' in mid-air.

 

Here is the data for the F-4M centreline pylon:

 

[CenterlineStation]

SystemType=WEAPON_STATION

StationID=5

StationGroupID=5

StationType=EXTERNAL

AttachmentPosition=0.0,0.37,-1.01

AttachmentAngles=0.0,-2.0,0.0

LoadLimit=2500

AllowedWeaponClass=BOMB,LGB,EOGB,NUC,EOGR,ARM,EP,TER,TLR,RP,GP,MER,RCN

AttachmentType=NATO,USAF

ModelNodeName=pylon_centerline

PylonMass=24.95

PylondragArea=0.02

LaunchRailNodeName=

MinExtentPosition=

MaxExtentPosition=

 

Here is the data for the recon pod:

 

[WeaponData001]

TypeName=ReccePod

FullName=F-4K/M Reconnaissance Pod

ModelName=EMI_POD

Mass=1200.000000

Diameter=1.460000

Length=6.800000

SubsonicDragCoeff=0.200000

SupersonicDragCoeff=0.770000

AttachmentType=NATO,USAF,USN

SpecificStationCode=

NationName=USAF

StartYear=1968

EndYear=1995

Availability=3

BaseQuantity=12

Exported=TRUE

ExportStartYear=1968

ExportEndYear=1995

ExportAvailability=3

WeaponDataType=4

StoreType=6

CameraFOV=120.000000

CameraPosition=0.000000,0.000000,-1.800000

CameraYaw=0.000000

CameraPitch=-45.000000

CameraRoll=0.000000

SightTexture=

EODisplayFlags=268435456

 

. Here is a screenshot to illustrate:

Perhaps you need to create a new weapon station just for that handsome beast and with a tweaked attachment position

 

AttachmentPosition=0.0,0.37,-1.01 <<<<< progressively lower this figure

Here's the data for the TMF F-4M as I originally had it set up, dont know if it's the same for the stock TW birds though m8.

 

[CenterlineStationEMI]

SystemType=WEAPON_STATION

StationID=17

StationGroupID=5

StationType=EXTERNAL

AttachmentPosition=0.0,0.37,-0.80

AttachmentAngles=0.0,-2.0,0.0

LoadLimit=2050

AllowedWeaponClass=RCN

AttachmentType=UK

ModelNodeName=

PylonMass=

PylondragArea=0.02

LaunchRailNodeName=

MinExtentPosition=

MaxExtentPosition=

SpecificStationCode=EMI

 

and this is what the data ini for the pod should look like

 

[WeaponData001]

TypeName=EMI

FullName=EMI Recce Pod

ModelName=EMI_POD

Mass=1200.000000

Diameter=1.400000

Length=6.800000

SubsonicDragCoeff=0.200000

SupersonicDragCoeff=0.770000

AttachmentType=UK

SpecificStationCode=EMI

NationName=RAF

StartYear=1970

EndYear=1977

Availability=3

BaseQuantity=12

Exported=FALSE

ExportStartYear=0

ExportEndYear=0

ExportAvailability=0

WeaponDataType=4

StoreType=6

CameraFOV=120.000000

CameraPosition=0.000000,0.000000,-1.800000

CameraYaw=0.000000

CameraPitch=-45.000000

CameraRoll=0.000000

SightTexture=

EODisplayFlags=268435456

 

if you still have issues let me know.

Thanks, Sundowner, I gave that a try, changing the last number in AttachmentPosition to the same as the CenterlineStationWet. The EMI Recce Pod became unavailable. The Station ID and StationGroup numbers were unchanged, but appeared to fit in with the TW F-4M.

Due to the solution I found to the inner wing Sparrow issue, I also solved this problem. The solution was adding the new weapon station as a System under Fuselage.
