L005 pods for KnAAZ's Su-30's

[LilLucy]

Does anyone know how to fix the positioning for these pods??

[bazillius]

Find wingstations where these pods are l;oaded at *_LOADOUT.INI file

open *_DATA.ini file, search that weapon wingstations with this numbers and edit coordinates

StationID=13

StationID=14

as i remember but i am not sure.

end edit walues

AttachmentPosition= X.Y.Z

bigger value uper position smaller lower

[LilLucy]

still abit confused but what would you reccomend?

[a] 
SystemType=WEAPON_STATION 
StationID=13
StationGroupID=1 
StationType=EXTERNAL 
AttachmentPosition= -6.8,-4.35,0.422 
AttachmentAngles=0.0,0.0,0.0 
EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-1.0 
LoadLimit=200 
AllowedWeaponClass=ep
AttachmentType=WP,SOVIET,USAF,NATO
ModelNodeName=a01
PylonMass=86.18 
PylonDragArea=0.02

i think it'd have to be trial and error try changing the values little by little

[LilLucy]

well thanks for the help

and find and replace this in data. ini it needs to be

// Crew ---------------------------------------------------------

AttachmentPosition= 6.8,-4.35,0.422

Change the bold marked value. Since the pods are to low placed you must raise the number. The value is in meters. If you want to raise the pod by 10 centimeters you must wrote 0.522

[LilLucy]

So if i were to mod it, I would need to increase the height by probably 0.010 or 20ish?

This is the typical trail and error. I would use 0.1 as step. Then save the file. Start the game and check how much the position has changed. Then you may guess how big the next step must be. Make the steps not to big, but also not to small. 0.01 would means to move the position by only 1 centimeter or in other words 0.01 meter.

Thanks for the help! ^^

took me awhile but was finally able to edit them

Congratulation! That's one small step for mankind, one giant leap for beeing a modder. REMEMBER! Now you have to make us new planes, new skins and new maps. You took it upon yourself to make modifications for all of us.

Best i could give are data fixes and Skins really
