Question about late Mirage IIICJ modification data.

Recommended Posts

Hi

In the book "Israeli Mirage and Nesher Aces" by Shlomo Aloni, I have found the information that: Throughout its 20 years of service, the Mirage III underwent just four major technical changes in IDF/AF service – theintroduction of the ‘holding switches’, replacement of the Cyrano with ballast, swapping the Atar 9B for the 9C and, finally, removal of part of the ballast at ace Kobi Richter’s request in 1977. This moved the centre of gravity backwards, cutting minimum speed from 150 to 120
knots and increasing maximum ‘G’ from 6.5 to 7.3, thus improving sustained turn rates".

 

I would like to create this late modification of Mirage from 1977 for SF2 by:
1) changing empty mass of plane;
2) changing inertia of plane;
3) changing center of gravity position of plane
but I need some additional informations which I can not find:
1) have I to change any other data in DATA.ini file to properly reproduce the changes in flight model?
2) what is the mass of Cyrano Ibis radar/nose ballast?
3) how much of the ballast was removed?
4) how much has the center of gravity changed?

Please help.
Thanks in advance.

      Hi everyone,
      i've been playing SF2 for years now on my GTX 1050Ti 16 GB RAM i7 8750H Win 10 gaming laptop at medium graphical settings, getting always very high framerate with basically no drops whatsoever.
      Now i've moved to a new high-end laptop with GTX 4060 32 GB RAM i7 13650HX Win 11 and i've finally set my graphical settings to unlimited.
      I get fps locked at 60 most of the times (it's locked at 60 by default, and i don't know why and how to change it, even if that's not a problem) (i remember it used to be unlocked on my previous laptop and i ranged from 50/60 up to 130 with medium settings), but sometimes it drops for an instant (it's shown in "lowest fps" when i turn on parameters) and some other times (like with smoke or very dense models like carriers and terrains like "Italy" or when i move quickly my sight) it drops and stays there until i look away and not too fast.
      I tried at high settings and the difference is i gain 5/6 fps more when a drop happens.
      This problem, even if not game breaking, it may sometimes be annoying and disturbing.
      I'm actually surprised this happens, since i tried MSFS 2020 and i get 50+ fps at ultra, 80+ fps at high and 120+ fps at medium.
      I finally tried to set my SF2 settings to low, and the lowest fps it goes is 50.
      Is it because my laptop is not powerful enough (sounds very unlikely to me but i may be wrong) to run SF2 at unlimited and high settings? Or is that SF2 shows its age with newer systems with high-end specs so that's why it tends to lag more than more modern and demanding games?
      Thanks for the help and suggestions

      NOTE:
      - Stock TW squadron decals are used but with more detailed higher resolution versions that have panel lines and rivets etc for the Isreali Airforce Kurnass squadrons: 69, 105, 107, 119 & 201

      - Some texture folder names may seem unusual but it is to create continuity to avoid the bug that stops an aircraft upgrading during a campaign if the texture folder names don't match.
      NOTE:
      - There were multiple separate F-4E deliveries prior to the 1973 war and due to the variations in the Blocks all sorts of different configurations of ECM antenna, strike camera, slats/ flaps, 'slime' lights,  MIDAS4 etc. Not to mention local upgrades of 'slime' lights, MIDAS4 muzzle mods and slat instillations. Now throw in the Operation Nickle Grass emergency aid ex USAF aircraft during the war! I have rounded them all up into the first four in-game variants below:

      * F-4E_Kurnass_73            "F-4E Kurnass (73)"   (Soft-Wing & MIDAS4)
      Hangar screens are in 1920 x 1080
      Installation:
      - Drop all files into your mod folder the way they are setup in this pack and overwrite if ask to
      - If you are unsure about the way how mods are installed, check the knowledge base at CombatAce!
      - Campaigns folder contains the stock TW 1973 Yom Kippur War and 1982 Lebanon War campaigns modified to include the aircraft, weapons and textures in this pack.
      Credits:
      - original model by TW , BPAO , Crab_02

      - new weapons and pods by ravenclaw_007
      - myself (dtmdragon) for modification of the F-4E USAF pack into an Israeli specific F-4E Kurnass pack with IAF textures, weapons, loadouts and campaign mods
       CA fair use agreement applies.
