    Managed to update the Super Hornets with real fuel values (or fixed fuel values, courtesy of alexis99), as well as AoA indexer fixes (again thanks to alexis99 for the fix). Right now I contacted Brain32 to see if he's around and if he could work on the Block III cockpit. Still no word yet but some of the gears are shifting in order to get it worked on.

    I thought that might ruffle some feathers! I mean, for what you guys are working with as a base, it is terrific. The scenery is very convincing (in fact, a lot more so than many sims out there), the aircraft are pretty decent. The clouds could do with a complete overhaul (my opinion ) but with the cloud fog effect turned on they do the job of getting me hopelessly lost from the rest of my flight so can't really complain too much. Performance is spot on too in fairness, not one issue on my rig. What matters though is the feeling in the 'pit and it is most certainly an exhilarating place to be so hats off to you guys. I'd love to see this Sim get a much larger following so will do my best to spread the good word around social media etc. Thanks for the Welcome everyone and looking forward to harassing you all for pointers!! Here's the beer

    Hello Plebians , New to WOFF entirely, just bought BHAH II yesterday and now that I am over the initial hurdles of setting up my TM16000 HOTAS set (pedals are a pain to map) I can safely say that this sim is bonkers! I fly DCS, IL-2, Falcon BMS, Xplane 11 etc. and own 100's of ££'s worth of modules/addons but this mad little gem is already starting to really grow on me. The combat is INTENSE! The gun jams are frightening and the flying in general is fairly challenging. Coming from DCS etc. I was skeptical due to the out-dated graphics of WOFF but that hardly even matters to me now to be honest, it's just all so bloomin' interesting!

    I am about to give up on making boats with missiles, I have been working on the data file for more than 2 months, I have tried everything to get the missiles to fire from the correct place but failed. a lot of dear friends tried to help me to fix the missile to fire and track the targets, but we didn't get it correct. mostly it is me not understanding the data file. So I am asking anyone to help to fix the problem of the missiles and I am attaching the files please try to see the data file and test and please again show me what is I am doing incorrectly. thank you community in advance for everything but I am about to lose it with missiles.

    Greetings, I came over from Redbaron3d and board games like Dawn Patrol... then ROF. ROF's AI was a total failure and the developers did nothing to improve the Ai's habit of entering turns when you engaged and were never really aggressive. Once I bought into WOFF I was sold. The AI and other features are light years above any other WW1 sim.

    I do not why...but. Obviously you are doing something wrong, despite the suggestions above. I open your tga. save and it works...menu.rar you should not have dimensions of tga as 39x40.... 39x39...or any other but equal...

    Welcome to the asylum er briefings tent...where everything is jolly until someone loses an EIII. I don't say a whole lot in here, but I've been around since WOFF BHAHII was OFF 2 iirc on a CD. I have sim flown RoF & IL2Flying Circus for the co-op MP and enjoyed those iterations. For SP pure DiD immersion its WOFF ( and WoTR) in campaign form. Otherwise it's tabletop Fight in the Skies (TSR- ancient pre Dawn Patrol version) with models or the venerable Avalon Hill offering 'Richtofen's War'. Kind regards, Dave

    I have the updates for everyone: Everything looks good so far. For now, since I am unable to make my own .tga icon / shapes for now (I posted in another thread about it. At once when I finally can make my own .tga, I'll replace SF2 with new one. At single mission screen, I managed to switch default SF2's icon so it is visible on clipboard paper's background. Everything looks good so far. The default hanger screen is now completed too. I have a lot of works to do since I need to apply a new hangar screen on all SF2's planes. The next step is the loadout screen.

    YAK-130 (NATO code name MITTEN) The Yak-130 combat trainer was selected as the winner of the trainer competition of the Voyenno Vozdushnyye Sily, Russian Federation Air Force, in April 2002. The aircraft is also actively marketed for export by Yakovlev, the Irkut company, and by Rosoboronexport. The Yak-130 combat trainer was selected as the winner of the trainer competition of the Voyenno Vozdushnyye Sily, Russian Federation Air Force, in April 2002. The aircraft is also actively marketed for export by Yakovlev, the Irkut company, and by Rosoboronexport. The Russian Air Force has a future requirement for 300 Yak-130 aircraft that can be deployed as a light strike aircraft or as a trainer for a range of fourth or fifth-generation fighters. An order was placed for the first 12 aircraft to replace ageing Aero Vodochody L-39 Albatros in 2002. The aircraft entered service in the Russian Federation Air Force at the military pilot training academy in Krasnodar in July 2009 and was showcased in the MAKS 2009 air show.The production line for the aircraft at the Aviation Plant Sokol in Nizhny Novgorod, known as NAZ Sokol, is fully operational and the roll out of the first production series aircraft took place in May 2003. A series of flight tests of the serial production aircraft was started in April 2004. The Russian Air Force ordered official testing in May 2005. The full trials of the advanced combat trainer, including spin and combat tactics trials, were completed in December 2009 prior to delivery of the first two production aircraft to the Russian Air Force. The first Yak-130 ordered by the Russian Air Force completed its flight acceptance test at Sokol in August 2009. The Russian Air Force received the first four of 12 Yak-130s between February 2010 and April 2010. Another five aircraft were delivered in April 2011. In December 2011, the Russian Ministry of Defence placed an order with Irkut for the delivery of 55 Yak-130 combat trainers by 2015. The first batch of six aircraft was delivered to the Russian Air Force in October 2012. The second batch of three Yak-130s was delivered in November 2012. The aircraft deliveries were completed in early 2015. The Russian Air Force commenced pilot training operations of the new Yak-130 combat aircraft in April 2013, however a Yak-130 plane crashed near Akhtubinsk in the Astrakhan region in April 2014. The aircraft performed a flight with advanced digital avionics suite developed by KRET in June 2014. International orders and deliveries In March 2006, it was announced that Algeria had placed an order for 16 Yak-130 trainers. The first flight of the Yak-130 built for Algerian Air Force was completed in September 2009. In September 2011, the Algerian pilots were permitted to take solo flights on the aircraft after completion of three months theoretical and practical trainings. Deliveries were concluded in 2011. In January 2010, the Libyan Air Force ordered six Yak-130 aircraft. The Vietnamese Air Force ordered eight Yak-130 aircraft. In December 2010, the Kazakh Defence Minister signed an agreement with his Russian counterpart to use the Yak-130. In December 2012, the Belarusian Defence Ministry signed a contract with Irkut for four Yak-130 combat-trainers that were delivered in 2015. The Belarusian Air Force received four aircraft in 2016, while four more aircraft were delivered in May 2019. Bangladesh placed an order for 16 Yak-130s in January 2014. The Russian MoD placed an order for the supply of an additional 12 Yak-130 aircraft in February 2014. The delivery was completed in 2016. The Myanmar Air Force received three Yak-130 aircraft in late 2016, while six more trainers were delivered in December 2019. The Algerian Air Force operates 16 Yak-130 aircraft. A total of 36 Yak-130 aircraft were scheduled to be delivered to Syria by 2016 but the delivery was postponed due to the ongoing conflict in Syria. Vietnam signed a $350m deal for the purchase of 12 Yak-130s from Russia, in 2019. Yak-130 development A joint programme for trainer development between Yakovlev of Russia and Aermacchi of Italy began in 1993 and the Yak / AEM-130D demonstrator first flew in 1996. In 1999, the partnership was dissolved and the Yakovlev Yak-130 and the Aermacchi M346 became separate programmes. By the second quarter of 2003, the Yak-130 prototype had successfully completed 450 flights, including high-manoeuvrability flight demonstrations such as a controlled angle of attack of 42°. The Yak-130 completed the first stage of state joint tests in April 2009 which includes incorporating basic armaments. It arrived at Lipetsk Air Base in February 2010. The Yak-130 has a maximum g-loading of +8g to -3g and is capable of executing the flight manoeuvres specific to current operational and developmental combat aircraft, including Su-30, MiG-29, Mirage, F-15, F-16, Eurofighter, F-22 and F-35. Other variants of the Yak-130 considered included a navalised carrier-based trainer aircraft, a lightweight reconnaissance aircraft and an unmanned strike aircraft. Combat trainer design The Yak-130 production aircraft is slightly different from the Yak-130D demonstrator, with lower weight, a more rounded nose to accommodate a radar, a shorter fuselage length and a lower wing area. The Yak-130 is of classical swept-wing and empennage monoplane design and light alloy construction with carbon-fibre control surfaces. Kevlar armour protection is fitted to the engines, cockpit and avionics compartment. The moderately swept high-lift wing and the all-moving low-mounted tail plane allow the pilot to choose high angles of attack. For short airfield performance the aircraft is equipped with leading edge slats and three-position Fowler flaps. The Fowler flaps are split flaps which move rearward and then downward on tracks to give a large increase in lift and high lift and drag for landing manoeuvres. The airframe is designed for a 30-year service life with 10,000 hours flying time or 20,000 landings. The Yak 130 aircraft can be operated from unpaved runways and small unprepared airfields as the aircraft’s landing gear is designed with high take-off. A complex fly-by-wire control system installed enables the aircraft to feature automatic flight control system, active flight safety system, training stability and controllability characteristics. All-digital cockpit The aircraft has an air-conditioned and pressurised two-seat tandem cockpit fitted with NPO Zvezda K-36LT3.5 zero-zero ejection seats. The pilots have all-round view through a blister canopy. The forward pilot has a view over the nose to -16°. The rear pilot has a view to -6°. The production Yak-130 is the first Russian aircraft with an all-digital avionics suite. The avionics meets Mil Standard 1553 and can be adapted to the customer’s requirements. The aircraft has an all-glass cockpit. Both pilot positions are night vision goggle compatible and equipped with three multifunction 6in x 8in colour liquid crystal displays. The pilot in the forward cockpit can use the helmet-mounted sight for target designation. The cockpit is fitted with an MS internal and external communication and voice warning system supplied by AA.S. Popov GZAS joint stock company. The Avionica fly-by-wire flight control system is used to adjust the stability and controllability characteristics and flight safety systems to simulate a number of aircraft such as the MiG-29, Su-27, Su-30, F-15, F-16, F-18, Mirage 2000, Rafale, Typhoon and future fighters such as the F-35. The pilot selects the software model of the simulated aircraft’s control system on the Yak-130 on-board computer. The pilot can select the model during flight. The system can be forgiving to allow cadet pilots the easy acquisition of piloting skills. The open architecture avionics suite includes two computers and a three-channel information exchange multiplexer. The navigation suite includes laser gyroscopes and GLONASS / NAVSTAR global positioning. Weapons The Yak-130 combat trainer can simulate the tactics of different combat aircraft. There is one centreline fuselage hardpoint and the number of wing hardpoints for the suspension of weapons payloads has been increased to eight with six underwing and two wingtip points, increasing the combat payload weight to 3,000kg. The aircraft can carry weapons, suspended fuel tanks, reconnaissance pods and a range of electronic warfare pods including radar jammers and infrared countermeasures. An open architecture avionics suite installed on the Yak-130 allows a wide range of western weapon systems and guided missiles to be integrated including the AIM-9L Sidewinder, Magic 2 and the AGM-65 Maverick. Weapons fits include the Vikhr laser-guided missile, R-73 infrared-guided air-to-air missiles (Nato designation AA-11 Archer) and the Kh-25 ML (Nato designation AS-10 Karen) air-to-surface laser-guided missile. A Platan electro-optical guidance pod is installed under the fuselage for deployment of the KAB-500Kr guided bomb. The aircraft is fitted with a 30mm GSh-301 cannon or a podded GSh-23 cannon installed under the fuselage. It can also deploy unguided B-8M and B-18 rockets, 250kg and 50kg bombs and cluster bombs. Yak-130 radar The Yak-130 is fitted with the 8GHz to 12.5GHz Osa or Oca (Wasp) radar developed by NIIP Zhukovsky. The radar has the capacity to track eight airborne targets simultaneously, simultaneously engage four targets at all angles and simultaneously track two ground targets. The detection range against 5m² cross section targets is 40km in the rear direction and 85km in the forward direction. The lock-on range for operation in automatic tracking mode is 65km. The radar, which has adaptive waveforms and sidelobes, has a surface mapping mode which includes image freezing and zooming on areas of interest. An alternative radar fit is the Kopyo (Spear) radar. The aircraft can also be fitted with a podded Platan (Palm Tree) infrared search and track targeting system. Countermeasures The electronic warfare suite includes a chaff and flare dispenser, a radar warning receiver and active jammers. The 'Talisman' ADS is designed for operational aircraft protection against: All types of Air-to-Air (AAMs) and Surface-to-Air (SAMs) guided missiles armed with active (semi-active) radar seekers. All types of Air-to-Air (AAMs) and Surface-to-Air (SAMs) guided missiles armed with electro-optical (infrared) seekers. Ground-based air defense systems, employing command-guided SAMs. The ADS 'Talisman' also ensures aircraft protection against the ‘friendly fire’ of air intercept missile systems as well as ground-based air defense systems. (Talisman.mp4) Main advantages and singularity: Automatic (with no pilot/operator's input) jamming generation against all hostile illumination RESs. No restrictions on the number of the simultaneously jammed on-board and ground-based RESs. Total exclusion of the ADS-carrier self-radiation. The employment of the ADS places no restrictions on the air combat tactics of the aircraft under protection. When in close formation, the ADS-carrier securely covers a friendly neighbouring aircraft with no EPE. Full electromagnetic compatibility with the self radio electronic equipment of the aircraft under protection. Turbofan engines The aircraft has a high thrust-to-weight ratio of about 0.85. The demonstrator is powered by two Slovakian Povazske Strojarne DV-2SM turbofan engines, each rated at 2,200kg thrust. Production aircraft are fitted with two powerful high-economy AI-222-25 turbofan engines, each rated at 2,500kg thrust and developed under a Russian and Ukrainian program by Motor Sich, Zaporozh’e Progress Design Bureau and the Moscow Salyut Motor Building Production Enterprise. The export variant of the Yak-130 can be fitted with the DV-2SM engine. The internal fuel tanks, comprising two wing tanks and a centre fuselage tank, carry up to 1,750kg of fuel. With two suspended fuel tanks (each 450l) the maximum total fuel load is 2,650kg. The aircraft is fitted with single point pressure or optional gravity refuelling. The aircraft can be fitted with an in-flight refuelling probe. The export variant of the Yak-130 can be fitted with the DV-2SM engine. According to the customer country’s requirement, the aircraft can be fitted with an in-flight refuelling probe.

    ANIMATION KEYS I'm a little surprised that there is no standardisation of animation keys amongst developers. Perhaps it's small beer amongst all the other things they have to think about. But it's quite awkward to find that the open canopy command is SHIFT+1 in one aircraft and SHIFT+10 in another. Especially when you want to assign the command to a specific switch in your Home-built cockpit. And it often occurs that you miss a cool animation feature because it's tied to another key and you didn't RTFM. F-117, extend antennas, wow! Anyway, I made my own standardised list and altered the animation keys in each aircraft to suit. It's easy to do. Just go into the Data file and search "InputName=ANIMATION" You'll get something like this: [RefuelDoor] SystemType=ANIMATION InputName=ANIMATION_2 DeploymentMethod=MANUAL AnimationTime=2.0 AnimationID=7 Just replace the number after InputName=ANIMATION_(number) to the number key you want to use. I made the above InputName=ANIMATION_3 So whatever the designers assign, I alter to suit this list SHIFT+1 = CANOPY + WING FOLD SHIFT+2 = TRAIL DECOY (SUPERHORNET HAS THIS) SHIFT+3 = AIR-REFUEL PROBE/REFUEL DOOR SHIFT+4 = EXTEND ANTENNAS (F-117 HAS THIS) SHIFT+5 = SLIMERS SHIFT+6 = NIGHT VISION GOGGLES (MARINA MILITARE HARRIER HAS THIS) SHIFT+7 = WING FOLD (NOT ATTACHED TO CANOPY) SHIFT+8 SHIFT+9 SHIFT+10 Okay, egg-sucking tutorial over.
