Notice anything different between these 2 AT-38B talons? Look close...the effect is very subtle... FC

I don't have access to the F-18 at the moment. Let's keep it simple. If you want 4 AMRAAMs on the underwing pylons, you will have to use the stock TMF loadout. Do not use any missile racks. Use stations 9, 10, 11, 12. If you want 8 AMRAAMs (ie 2 pair where the drop tanks are), then you will need to use the LAU-115CA racks. Stations 1, 2, 9, 10, 11, 12 In AllowedWeaponClass, you will need to add 2AR,AHM to the pylon line for stations 1 and 2. Without looking at the stock TMF FA-18A, I think this is what you need. Loadout[01].WeaponType=AIM-120C Loadout[01].Quantity=2 Loadout[01].RackType=LAU-115C Loadout[02].WeaponType=AIM-120C Loadout[02].Quantity=2 Loadout[02].RackType=LAU-115C Loadout[09].WeaponType=AIM-120C Loadout[09].Quantity=1 Loadout[10].WeaponType=AIM-120C Loadout[10].Quantity=1 Loadout[11].WeaponType=AIM-120C Loadout[11].Quantity=1 Loadout[12].WeaponType=AIM-120C Loadout[12].Quantity=1 Loadout[13].WeaponType=Tank300_F18 Loadout[13].Quantity=1 Loadout[14].WeaponType=AIM-120C Loadout[14].Quantity=1 Loadout[15].WeaponType=AIM-120C Loadout[15].Quantity=1 Loadout[16].WeaponType=AIM-9X Loadout[16].Quantity=1 Loadout[17].WeaponType=AIM-9X Loadout[17].Quantity=1 This assumes: Stations 1 and 2 are the inner pylon Fuel Tank stations. Stations 9-12 are the AMRAAM missile stations. Station 13 is the centerline station. Station 14 and 15 are the fuselage AMRAAM stations. Station 16 and 17 are the wingtip stations. Because you haven't provided the full list of stations, I can only guess as to which stations are what. FC

Those inner rails on the TMF FA-18A are meant for one missile each. You loaded the racks on those rails...that is incorrect. Those racks (LAU-115CA) are for the outer pylons which do not have built in missile rails. It looks like you tried to combine the Super Hornet loadout.ini entries into the FA-18A loadout.ini. Not a good idea unless you know exactly what you are doing. FC

It could be something internal to the file. FC

No. We do not have the time to adapt these aircraft to the eariler Generation 1 series (SFP1/WOV/WOE/WOI). If someone wants to do it on their own, that's fine. FC

And there are more changes coming for the other F-15s... FC

Not according to my wife! Did I mention she's Canadian? FC

Yep, a real bromance.... FC

Nice to see ya 'the Don'. Come back whenever...we'll be hangin around... FC

Yes, if you know: 1. How to work with the weapondata.ini 2. How the directory structure for the weapons are arranged. 3. What specific files you need for each weapon. 4. How to work with the weapons editor. 5. How to arrange the files so that the weapon is 'visible' to the player and the weapons editor. You must know these five things. If you do not know any one of them, you are doomed to failure. I would suggest VERY strongly to get familiar with how your weapons work in your current install. And then start with small changes. FC

Anyone notice the gun case actually strapped to the wing strut? That's some funny stuff there...even markered the registration on the duct tape! "Ya gotta do what you gotta do"... FC

Welcome to 2 months ago....

And speak WELL and sound good...'cowboy' speak is bad enough...poor sounding native speak isn't a whole lot better. FC

What I thought was interesting was finding out that a lot of the light grey variants didn't get the MFD until the mid-80s...they initially came off the line with the same armament panel as the A models. In addition, the Baz models needed different rails for the Python 3 missile (which the stock TW Baz actually has wrong). And that non-USAF light grey Eagles couldn't carry AMRAAMs until the late-1990s, long after the USAF could...a distinct disadvantage had there been a large conflict in the mid-1990s for Israel or Japan. Also, if you want to use the early light grey models, you will need to have at least SF2E or SF2I (you MIGHT be able to get the WOE or WOI F-15A cockpit to work instead). FC

Maybe we can call it the "F-15 Ultra Pack"... Of course, it'll take up at least 4.36 GB on your HD...still working on decals for a few versions... Except for the R, ACTIVE, and any one off special versions (Streak Eagle, prototype #1 before the wing and stab mods, etc), I think we'll have every version of the Eagle ever built... FC

Because the file you downloaded was OLD, back before the aircraftobject.ini alterations weren't needed anymore. FC

No such thing as too many Eagles... FC

The LODs haven't been fixed. The SF2 update was for the burners. Only erikgen can fix the LODs. FC

Capt. Ward, Thank you for your service and for the stories and pictures! Great to hear more stories from the guys who flew the serious iron from back in the day. If you want to see how much the T-38 has changed, come on down to Randolph AFB in the next couple of months and I'll give you a tour of the 560th plus a T-38 sim ride. It ain't a Hun...but it's still fun. From one of the younger heads still flying in the USAF (at least for a little longer), salute! FC

That's some funny stuff right there... FC

See, 331KillerBee doesn't hold a grudge! He has no living enemies. At all. FC

Don't worry Eric, we still think you're a douche bag anyway... FC PS For those who don't know...that's a joke between friends!
