I'm not sure whether the values in avionics.ini are in miles... 200/160 NM is really far ~370/296 kilometers

Fubar this blur effect from nozzles is photoshopped or is it mod?? Looks great.

Yes this is it! Thanks Crusader.

Umm yes I edited ini and add entries for properly lods and shadow, but still they are not show, hmm maybe in 3dsmax must be something set??

I have set at unlimited but didn't show. Im using MGunny weapons pack, only stock weapon has shadows.

Does anyone have an idea how to add shadows to third-party weapons?

I added this entry in .ini file

[shadow]

CastShadow=TRUE

ShadowCastDist=10000

MaxVisibleDistance=100

but it does not work

Didnt TK say something about two expansions packs for SF:E??

In f/a-18 data.ini change:

[AircraftData]

...

CGPosition=0.00,0.00,0.00 --------> to 0.00,0.35,0.00

...

I suspect that this had to be related to navigation, perhaps navigation indicator. I tested it in WOE1 but nothing works, nothing is displayed. Maybe it can work in the second generation? Or TK didn't finish it and left entry for future sims.

Superb mod

In WOE first gen and WinXP this working. CCIP/gunsight disappears on the panel or windscreen frame. Still floating on windscreen glass but now is less annoying. Thanks Orsin!

I don't have any of the second gen SF but I thought that TK has fixed this old bug?

btw discussion about it

Wow awesome Stary. Can it work in WoE first gen?

Oh my God what a sad news... May he rest in peace.

Z tego co wiem to niewiele mamy tych pocisków. Głównie dlatego że dopiero ostatnie serie Suczek które Polska kupiła były przystosowane do zabierania telewizyjnej wersji, coś koło 20 sztuk otrzymało ekran tv, potrzebny do naprowadzenia tych pocisków. Pytanie ile zostało w służbie maszyn z telewizorkami ?

Zaglądnij tu, Fastcargo opisał jak przerobić mody pod kątem pierwszej generacji.

Z tego co wiem samoloty do SF2 mają jakieś dodatkowe elementy i ogólnie zmodyfikowane wpisy w plikach ini.

Co do zakupu SF2 czekam na SF:Israel, może TK zaimplementuje jakieś nowinki w kwestii awioniki.

Thanks NeverEnough for this info.

So using as an example WoE stock F-15A data

We have:

[AircraftData]

EmptyMass=12474.0

EmptyInertia=260995.5,31548.9,286808.2

ReferenceArea=56.49

ReferenceSpan=13.01

ReferenceChord=4.86

CGPosition=0.0,0.20,0.0

Where

I-pitch=260995.5

I-roll=31548.9

I-yaw=286808.2

d=19.43 (length)

b=13.01 (span)

e=(b+d)/2

Inertia (Y Direction) Iy= (W/g)*(Ry*d/2)^2

(12474/9.8) * (Ry*19.43/2)^2 = 260995.5

1272.86 * 94.38Ry = 260995.5

120131.53Ry = 260995.5

Ry = 2.173

Inertia (X Direction) Ix= (W/g)*(Rx*b/2)^2

1272.86 * (Rx*13.01/2)^2 = 31548.9

Rx = 0.586

Inertia (Z Direction) Iz= (W/g)*(Rz*e/2)^2

1272.86 * (Rz*16.22/2)^2 = 286808.2

Rz = 3.426

Is that correct?

Hi all. I have question regarding empty inertia parameters in aircraft data file.

I know that there are formulas:

Lx=(W/g)*(Rx*b/2)^2

Ly=(W/g)*(Ry*d/2)^2

Lz=(W/g)*(Rz*e/2)^2

Where:

W - weight (must be in kilograms?)

g - gravity (9,8?)

Rx; Ry; Rz - ??? I dont know what is it...

b - span (in meters?)

d - length (in meters?)

e - (b+d)/2 (is it correctly?)

Are these formulas correctly?

No właśnie Signum co z Tupolewem, co tam jeszcze trzeba przy nim zrobić?

It seems to me that it is defined (shaking) in the views?? Head view? I noticed when we open speedbrake there is little shake/head move...

As for differences I honestly don't have a clue what are the external differences between A and C, but in the cockpit lower left panel for fuel and stuff is different on the C...

Well in C version added two ecm antennas just behind cockpit, and some new antennas in vertical stabilizers.

Interesting, but what about differences in weight? "Charlie" is heavier than "Alpha".

Variety sources determine that the weight of the empty C/D version is around 10,450kg ~ 11,200kg

In Mirage Factory data.ini we have:

[AircraftData]

EmptyMass=12700.0

EmptyInertia=110462.56,32363.42,142825.98

...

Does it have any impact on the flight model?
