A Couple of things

[fallenpheonix 0]

Hi guys,

I've had a couple of problems with the 25 de Mayo (it dosn't move) and the other aplies to some aircraft, the hooks wont lower. In the case of the A-4Q it wont engage the wires of the 25 de Mayo. I looked at the A-4Q data INI and got the hook to lower, it just wont engage though.

I have the USS Forestall and HMS Victorious installed and moving, and can trap with the F-4J and Sea Vixen, any ideas guys?

Hi Craig,

Go to your A-4Q Data.INI file and replace your TailHook lines with these... :)
