F-111 "Dump n' Burn"

First, download the attached file, "Fueldumpeffect.ini", and place it in your WoV or SFP1 Effects folder.

 

Then, open up your F-111's data files (F-111A_data.ini) and add the following under the "[Fuselage]" header, maintaining the existing system sequence number. The "XXX" is just a place holder for the three digit sequence number.

 

SystemName[XXX]=FuelDump

 

Then, open up your gundata.ini file, usually located in the WoV/SFP1 Objects folder, by simply double clicking on it (it'll open up in notepad). Scroll to the bottom of the list, and copy and paste the following data, keeping in mind that you must again maintain the numbering sequence:

 

[GunDataXXX]

TypeName=F111_FD

FullName=F-111 Fuel Dump Valve

Caliber=100.000000

ROF=300.000000

MuzzleVel=300.000000

AmmoWt=0.000100

WarheadWt=0.000100

Reliability=100.000000

Accuracy=100.000000

AddLight=TRUE

MaxLightRange=10000.000000

FireColor=0.500000,0.450000,0.320000

GunFireEffect=FuelDumpEffect

GunFireSound=jetburner

EffectClassName=

EffectTime=0.500000

TracerTexture=

TracerSize=0.900000

TracerDistFactor=0.002000

TracerLength=0.015000

MaxVisibleDist=4000.000000

MaxStreakVisibleDist=1000.000000

TimeFuzed=FALSE

 

 

Close the gundata.ini files, accept the changes, then reopen it using the Gun Editor (available on this site). Simply hit save to validate the changes that you've added when you edited the gundata.ini, and to create a new (updated) gundata.dat

 

Your F-111 of choice will now dump n' burn whenever you hit the primary gun trigger.

It seems that file attachment may not have been implemented yet, so you'll have to do one more thing...

 

Open up notepad (start/run, type notepad into the open field, and click ok). Copy and paste the following data onto notepad:

In notepad's menu, go to "file", "save as", "save in:" your wov/sfp1 effects folder, ""file name:" FuelDumpEffect.ini, and "save as type:" all files

 

And that should do it! :biggrin:

Is this any different from the one posted over at SimHQ?

 

I tried that, and I get a light up in the `burner area, and a different than AB toned sound, but

not the nice roiling, flaming fun you have pitured...

I'm not getting this to work. I'm 100% certain I followed those directions exactly, but it's not dumping and burning.

Alas, still nothing. I push the throttles to burner, I pull the trigger...

 

And nothing happens. No different sounds, no cool-as-hell fireball trailing behind. Just nothing.

The long drought of flame-lessness is now over! :biggrin:

 

I wiped it all and started from scratch, as I believe my mucking about caused more harm

then good, and alas, I have the proverbial dump and burn!

 

431TES_D-n-B_0.jpg

 

Here are a pair of my ex-squaddies beholding the Zippo effect, up close and personal;

 

431TES_D-n-B_1.jpg

 

McNally, it may be that you don't have the entire equation, you also need to;

 

Add the following data to Gundata.ini, and save with the Gun editor:

 

[GunDataXXX]

TypeName=F111_FD

FullName=F-111 Fuel Dump Valve

Caliber=100.000000

ROF=300.000000

MuzzleVel=300.000000

AmmoWt=0.000100

WarheadWt=0.000100

Reliability=100.000000

Accuracy=100.000000

AddLight=TRUE

MaxLightRange=10000.000000

FireColor=0.500000,0.450000,0.320000

GunFireEffect=FuelDumpEffect

GunFireSound=jetburner

EffectClassName=

EffectTime=0.500000

TracerTexture=

TracerSize=0.900000

TracerDistFactor=0.002000

TracerLength=0.015000

MaxVisibleDist=4000.000000

MaxStreakVisibleDist=1000.000000

TimeFuzed=FALSE

 

 

Add to F-111A_DATA.INI under the following sections:

 

Under the Fuselage header, add:

SystemName[XXX]=FuelDump

 

Under the "Internal Guns" header, add:

[FuelDump]

SystemType=FIXED_GUN

GunTypeName=F111_FD

InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN

AimAngles=0.0,-1.0,0.0

MuzzlePosition=0.00,-15.9720,-0.15

LightPosition=-0.00,-14.9720,-0.15

MaxAmmo=2000

EjectShells=FALSE

MinExtentPosition=0.00,-9.0000,0.0375

MaxExtentPosition=0.00,-9.8720,0.0375

 

The primary gun trigger will give you the dump and burn effect.

 

Hope you get it working, it is a hoot!

On the contrary, Deuces, thanks for picking up on that.

 

Between the re-constructive surgery I've had on my right shoulder, the meds, the failing eyesite, and then returning to work after only 10 weeks of so-called recuperation & therapy....well, you get the picture. :shok:
