Chugster Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 Ive just installed the Desert Storm mod and was wondering if the AH-64 can actually hover? Only it seems to operating like a really slow plane Secondly, on the Eurofighter (and presumably other 5th gen) when you select a weapon the left mfd and centre mfd change, the left goes from fuel to weapon status and the centre goes from a terrain map to just a compass, is there a way to 'unselect' a weapon to get those screens back?

Chugster Posted October 15, 2020 Author Posted October 15, 2020 Oh and 2 more i just found, F-117 mode has parts of the cockpit turn green when you turn on the radar or LGB? And the cockpit of the SU-27 seems to have 2 odd rotating cylinders just under the HUD. I am assuming these arent meant to be like this? Quote
Trotski Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 It is possible to hover some of the Helo's however the game engine isnt really designed to do this , so it can be very difficult, the same goes for the harriers, you can thrust vector ( and you use basically the same method for Helo's ) however I never seem to have much luck with it, except for rolling STOL operations . The sim is mainly aimed at jets and props , vertical is very complicated . No idea about the MFD issues or the lighting in the Nighthawk , thems is black majiks n' voodoo for the model makers .......Don't trust 'em , they turn people into slugs 'n toads n' stuff.......Us Skinners however are majikal and wonderous , and we help old ladies to cross the road....True story. 1 3 Quote
Chugster Posted October 15, 2020 Author Posted October 15, 2020 One more thing Ive just noticed, after I downloaded the TMF RAF Phantoms (both K & M), none of them have the Skyflash missile anymore, instead they have a RN Sea Flash, how do i get my Skyflash's back? Quote
Trotski Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 Maybe from a weapons pack , or if there any included with the Tornado , failing that make a copy of the Sea Flash and rename it to Sky Flash. Quote

I just tweaked the ini and got them back, so that is one issue sorted..just need to work out why the Flanker cockpit has weird spinny things that spin faster with more throttle (no spinny thing on the Mig-29 cockpit)...and why the F-117 cockpit frame goes green when i select an LGB Quote

There is somewhere Israeli AH-64 Peten mod. And with data from there, you can. (or be close) but it needs practice. A lot of practice. 3 hours ago, Chugster said: the left mfd and centre mfd change, this is set by modder who build the cockpit. Not possible to change much, without access to the source 3d file. ... 2 hours ago, trotski00 said: thems is black majiks n' voodoo for the model makers .......Don't trust 'em , they turn people into slugs 'n toads n' stuff.......Us Skinners however are majikal and wonderous , and we help old ladies to cross the road We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own.

Its the sensor-things which work with the helmet-mounted sight (on the real jet). Do not even think about such fancy helmet-sight stuff in SF Quote

+Crusader Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) Spinning things. But they swapped the helmet-sight for something cooler Edited October 15, 2020 by Crusader Quote
