[+Soulfreak 6,524]

Hello my modding friends,

I´m working on different Starfighter skins for the AI pack.

But somehow i´m confused about the things need to been tweeked.

The goal from this topic, is to have a complete list of things that can tweeked without

the models core file.

And please stay on Topic mates (that makes it easier to see relevant posts). ;-)

Please post your tweeks here, will add them to the list.

I always have the external tanks on, for ALL A-A loadouts...

 

so for standard Air-to-Air, add this:

 

Loadout[03].WeaponType=Tank195_F104

Loadout[03].Quantity=1

Loadout[04].WeaponType=Tank195_F104

Loadout[04].Quantity=1

Thank you Kevin, but that should only go for the C Zippers right?

The A hasn´t got the centerline missle rails, or?

[Wrench 9,852]

both

it'll put the tanks on the mid-wing station, leaving the wingtip missiles on all (Cs of course, get the lower fuse catamaran)

BTW, has anyone a fix for the not moving nozzle?

[Svetlin 545]

I have compared the data. ini files of the A and C with that of the G model Starfighter and came to a conclusion that TK made a few changes to the G to come up with the A and C models.

As nothng I tried worked to make the nozzles move, I am starting to think that the animation was switched off in 3dsMax by mistake.

May be a future patch will fix that, just as TK did with the F-4N.

i was wondering if somebody was working on squadron-specific skins for the dlc... i'm kinda missing the skins i had in the earlier F-104C add-on.

 

i'll prob have to get the add-on back and rename it so i can use it next to the dlc...
