Adding weapons to aircraft

Recommended Posts

Hi there.

Apologies if something very similar to this has already been posted.

Is it possible to add weapons in the game to aircraft not originally configured to carry them?

 

For example, I have the SF2 Vietnam air and ground expansion pack installed, and wish to add the AIM-4 falcon to the F-4 phantom, since it was historically fitted to the aircraft due to sparse unavailability of the sidewinder.

 

Is it possible to do this?

 

Thanks

F-4D models, stock 3rd Wire, are already be configured for this. Extract the F-4D loadout ini from ObjectCat008, and you'll see some nation & year specific loadouts for USAF Phantoms

the F-4E and F-4E_72 from my F-4E_USAF_pack are set up for AIM-4 use , including the AIM-4 launchrails

Okay. Could someone possibly go into detail of how someone would modify the ini files to add weapons to aircraft?

One doesn't have to modify anything.  Just fly during the period that the AIM-4D was available, and if it's not loaded by default (check the loadout screen to make sure), select it for yourself and your wingmen from the IRM stations pulldown.

 

IIRC, it should be the default IRM during 1965-1967 on the D and early E models.

As stated in my post above...to ACTUALLY be looking at the loadout ini...
