Targets in dogfight

Is there a way to add SAM/AAA for the dogfight in multi-player?

In multiplayer, you have two options:

Dogfight, which is strictly for arena style fighter vs fighter combat.

Co-op, which allows one side of up to 8 aircraft to attack the other side of up to 8 aircraft.

Co-op should have limited air defenses, but things were intentionally kept light to ensure good frame rates despite any lag called by the DirectPlay multiplayer interface.

 

Co-op can be fun, but there is no respawning, so dogfight is better for long term gameplay.

For instance, if you have 4 people flying together against AI in co-op, and one guy gets shot down right away, he can't do anything until that mission is complete.

Dogfight is far more flexible with its unlimited spawning, but it turns the game into a "Quake Fest".

 

Ultimately, the limitations of SFP1/WoX multiplayer ensured that there would never be a large group of people interested in playing it over the long term.

I spent a few years supporting it, but never met more than a handful of people that actually tried SFP1/WoX multiplayer.

Only a few of those played regularly for any length of time.

We fly it often in a LAN setting and thought adding anti air to the dogfight session would liven things up and keep people corralled in a bit.  We do both coop and dogfight every 4-6 weeks.  Plus some battlefield as well.  Good times.

 

So, is there a way to add anti air?  I know Major Lee had worked on an air race map that he was adding it to but never saw a finished product to look at.

In all the years I flew SFP1/WoX series, many if not most of them hosting online, I never saw anyone figure out how to mod either dogfight or co-op.
