Hello!

Has anyone an idea how to create a SAR, Medevac or a Casevac Misson?  My plan is to have a pilot, ground units, helicopter, and a cover airplane. I have checked which type of mission I can have on airplanes and helicopters. The plane can be in CAS or covering the heli. But here is coming my questions:

1. Whare I can find a pilot or create one as a ground object? 

2. Can I set up the heli's to pick up the pilot? And how? (If this is possible)

3.  Whare I can find US soldiers or create this to a ground object?

 

Best Regards

To 1.) It is possible to create a pilot as groundobject.

To 2.) The helicopters are not able to pick up something, including pilots. Thatswhy CSAR, SAR, MEDEVAC or similar missions are not possible.

Thanks for that answer! Hope they made an STF 3 that's is possible. But that never gonna happened I think?

What I did long long ago. Create a Armed Recon mission, put the downed pilot as a enemy ground object (so you can have enemy infantry firing at you, but not to the downed pilot), then "kill" the downded pilot (no damaged model on him, to simulate the pick up, get the mission accomplished and get the heck out of there.

It's fun, but AFAIK the only downed pilot we had was the YAP one. I also got a modded "smoke marker" so it was even more realistic.

well we have soldiers. and if requested one of our active modelers might be willing to create one if you explain the mission set

make a large hit box, low armor, and maybe you could set down "on" the pilot to destroy/pick them up

right up the lane of yakarov's Jolly Greens.........

would have to be tailor made missions so you dont take off expecting a downed pilot and get a convoy of ZSU-23s instead!

Hi! I have two ideas. One under the Vietnam war and one under the Afghanistan war. Hope I hope this is easy to understand?

If you want I can show you how to build AWACS missions. ;). Just PM.

Just a pilot in the ground would be nice, also a functional smoke column you can add in single missions...

      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.

      So I have been working on a terrain and I noticed that for some reason Mue's Target area editor does something to the target.ini file that makes it unreadable to the TFD Tool...
       
      This is what I did:  
       
      I used the TFD Tool to edit some tiles... All targets are labeled and show up
       
      Then went into the Target Area Editor and made some changes to a target area and then saved... 
       
      Went back to the TFD tool and the targets were no longer readable only 5 out of 200 targets show up... 
       
      I noticed that the file TFD Tool has no problem with looks like this:
       
      [TargetArea001] Name=target area 1  Position=414937,147250 Radius=10000 ActiveYear=0 Location=1 Alignment=FRIENDLY <--------- with the alignment= statement last    and on the one saved by the Target Area Editor its 3rd    [TargetArea001] Name=Target Area 1 Position=414937,147250 Alignment=FRIENDLY <-------------- here at #3  Location=1 ActiveYear=0 Radius=10000   Anyone else had this happen?

      Hello Masterful SF gurus and Fans!    haha!   I had a question reguarding the enviromentsystem.ini file.   I have Stary's awesome SARCASM 2 installed and its great for clear, broken and scattered flying but I find it to be a little too bright during overcast and inclement weather conditions... I tried myself to no avail but does anyone know the proper values to adjust in the INI to make rainy and overcast days a bit darker?  Thanks a lot!

      ​Hey!  I saw in a WIP thread awhile ago that there was a South African terrain in the works.... is that still going?  Cause I would love to fly in a border war scenario considering I am south African!  Haha anyone have any info on that?
