F-104 Gee Whiz

[yubba 70]

Turn the F-104 into the menace it was meant to be,,, you start by installing the 15E avionics,,, then copy all the contents of 15E cockpit file and paste into the F-104's cockpit file I say all because it's easier,, of course you want to edit the config file to look like this

 

[AircraftData]

AircraftFullName=F-104G Starfighter

AircraftShortName=F-104

AircraftDataFile=F-104G_data.ini

CockpitDataFile=F-104G_cockpit.ini

HangarScreen=F-104G_hangar.bmp

LoadoutImage=F-104G_loadout.bmp

LoadoutFile=F-104G_loadout.ini

AvionicsDLL=Avionics70.dll

AvionicsDataFilename=F-15E_avionics.ini

 

 

now with this set up you can carry sparrows by going to your Data ini add SAHM to wing tip stations and mid wing pylons and you get this and a HUD with a bomb ccip sight 

 

 

A add little bonus a little red light will light up when in range with sparrow it is located  left of the hud glass on the bracket looking thing mid way up hud glass

too lazy to search for yourself, eh??

 

OK then....here's a listing for JUST the SF1/Wo* series:

 

the original release 12/2006

 

http://combatace.com/files/file/1439-f-104s/

 

my 104S-ASA-M mod pack, 7/2007

 

http://combatace.com/files/file/4893-f-104s-asa-m-starfighter-mods/

 

spilone104's full 104S series mod pack, 5/2010

 

http://combatace.com/files/file/10940-f-104s-mod-pack/

 

so, by my calculations (albeit from Los Angeles School System's mathematics...), 2006 to 2017 is "more than ten years".

 

anything else that need clarifications?

[fallenphoenix1986 603]

did it have a hud like mine ????  2 years ago most stuff here didn't.. 

 

No, most things did not have huds... reason being they're not supposed to. To the best of my knowledge no F-104, anywhere, ever... had a hud fitted...

[Wrench 9,420]

the 104S-ASA-M may have. I'd have to dig out my Zipper books and triple check. But "the usual sources" are (predictalby) vague on the subject

[Toryu 156]

There's no HUD on the ASA-M, just the gunsight and pipper.

 

There are also no Sparrows on the wing-tips as the wings/ tip-launchers can't handle the weight.

The F-104S introduced another wing-station (between the "normal" wing-station of the A,C,G and the tip-station) to carry the Sparrow or a Sidewinder.

May I remind you this is the what if section,,, you didn't get my play on words,, Gee Whiz stands for a stock F-104G dolled up to the max. and you were so kind to get me a link to the F-104S though alittle late but other folks can get it ,, I have had it dolled up way before your last post,not quick enough,, with the F-15E avionics and fixed the rudder problem by changing the reveres properties to true in the rudder section of Data ini. and added SAHM to all stations except center line now too name it ,,, wait for it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,  F-104  wait for it,,,,, SUPER WHIZ,,now in my best mad scientist laugh  BBBHAAAH HA, HA, HA ,HA HA HA,
