Crusader

Its a completely new model

I think you have to edit the Gunsight section in the cockpit ini andchange the sight to a lead computing type ... Look into the Sabre pit ini..

in SF2 series, we have a INACTIVE function to hide mesh in cockpits.. e.g. Instrument[120]=Move1 [Move1] Type=INACTIVE NodeName=Camera thats all just needs the correct mesh name and next Instrument number ...

You can accidently remote-control AI flight leader canopies with the Animation Key Command SHIFT+0 or whatever is used ... try it..

yep its that jpg texture quality setting :)

mit was fürn prog machste denn die texturen ?

thats 2 different things the trigger inputs: InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN no problems InputName=FIRE_SECONDARY_GUN never worked FOR AI AIRCRAFT since day 1 of SFP1, that was notable on all early SF series 1 games where the AI MiG-17's fired only the 23mm cannons and not the 37mm cannon which was set to FIRE_SECONDARY_GUN Then there is the GunGroup= function There are no problems with it, the TW F-8 Crusader series is using GunGroups by deault Each gun can be sorted into a group , example from the Gunval Sabre: [internalGun1] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=20mm_T160 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN MuzzlePosition=-0.539,4.233,0.13 LightPosition= -0.589,4.283,0.13 MaxAmmo=115 EjectShells=TRUE EjectPosition=-0.36,3.454,-0.437 EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-2.0 MinExtentPosition=-0.45, 3.50,0.08 MaxExtentPosition=-0.55, 4.40,0.18 GunGroup=1 [internalGun2] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=20mm_T160 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN MuzzlePosition=-0.609,4.234,-0.213 LightPosition= -0.659,4.284,-0.213 MaxAmmo=115 EjectShells=TRUE EjectPosition=-0.24,3.454,-0.437 EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-2.0 MinExtentPosition=-0.45, 3.50,-0.16 MaxExtentPosition=-0.55, 4.40,-0.26 GunGroup=2 [internalGun3] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=20mm_T160 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN MuzzlePosition=0.539,4.233,0.13 LightPosition= 0.589,4.283,0.13 MaxAmmo=115 EjectShells=TRUE EjectPosition=0.36,3.454,-0.437 EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-2.0 MinExtentPosition= 0.45, 3.50, 0.08 MaxExtentPosition= 0.55, 4.40, 0.18 GunGroup=1 [internalGun4] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=20mm_T160 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN MuzzlePosition=0.609,4.234,-0.213 LightPosition= 0.659,4.284,-0.213 MaxAmmo=115 EjectShells=TRUE EjectPosition=0.24,3.454,-0.437 EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-2.0 MinExtentPosition=0.45, 3.50,-0.16 MaxExtentPosition=0.55, 4.40,-0.26 GunGroup=2 the 4 guns are splilt into 2 Groups ( Group 1 + 2 ) and can be selected via a keyboard command : ( default on my keyboard ) NEXT_GUNGROUP=SEMICOLON PREV_GUNGROUP=SHIFT+SEMICOLON This gives the option of using either the group 1 guns, or the group 2 guns, or both groups together.

File Name: SF2 Korean War Era F-86F GunVal Sabre Pak UPDATE File Submitter: Crusader File Submitted: 06 December 2012 File Category: F-86 UPDATE for http://combatace.com...nval-sabre-pak/ Small adjustments: - ammo capacity increased to 115 rpg - new T-160 gun with correct muzzle velocity and ROF of 1500 rpm and no entry for tracer tga * - shell ejection set to TRUE (only the links were retained inside) - aircraft weight increased by 76 kg - Cockpit fixes: + CGCockpitOffset=TRUE added + cockpit POV height offset set to 0 + cockpit height position synchronized with pilot height position * M39 cannon V0 and ROF are different . There was no 20-mm tracer ammo in Korea (only had API, HEI and a practice round) but they tipped API rounds into beeswax which gave a smoke trail when fired - wasnt perfect since the smoke trail was short ranged. Removing the tracer tga entry from the gun makes it a easy lookalike effect. Have fun The KAW Mod Team Click here to download this file

BUMP This file has been updated to v1.1 Version 1.1 - new gunsights added (A-4 type with bomb/rocket sight) - 16x HVAR loadout enabled and weapon positions adjusted Notes on A/G rocket/bomb sight usage: - bombing , use pipper (center dot) to aim - rocketing, use bottom diamond for aiming rockets

just got that file from avsim pappyspilots.zip

Only forgot to add the Synchronized=TRUE to the MG 17 and 304 kg fuel capacity ..

Heres a fully updated 109 E-3 pit ini which makes use of all the things posted above and has a new magnetos lever function , new calibrated manifold pressure indicator Also included is baffmeisters 109E-3_data0.8 ini with following changes: - added to Engine section : MinManifoldPressure=17.95276 MaxManifoldPressure=40.3937 - Internal Guns, 2 gungroups defined, MG17 and MGFF to get the ammo counters to work right and the gun rdy lights which are off if out of ammo - MGFF set to EjectShells=FALSE Bf109E-3.7z

np I got one or two flights with the 109 and the Spit yesterday Cant say much yet, but they flew both stable and what I saw of the AI was good too .... the 109 has a landing problem, they make a touch and go and then fly on ... from my flight of 5 wingos only 2 landed very late, near the rwy end the other 3 kept going, gear and flaps down .. heading straight down the rwy axis for many miles at ~ 600 ft In the Spitfire cockpit ini, replace the PitchSolid section with the data below for a proper VSI [PitchSolid] Type=VERTICAL_VELOCITY_INDICATOR NodeName=needleVASI MovementType=ROTATION_Z ValueUnit=FPM Set[01].Position=-163.0 Set[01].Value=-4000.0 Set[02].Position=-113.0 Set[02].Value=-3000.0 Set[03].Position=-72.0 Set[03].Value=-2000.0 Set[04].Position=-33.50 Set[04].Value=-1000.0 Set[05].Position=00.00 Set[05].Value=0.0 Set[06].Position=33.50 Set[06].Value=1000.0 Set[07].Position=72.0 Set[07].Value=2000.0 Set[08].Position=113.0 Set[08].Value=3000.0 Set[09].Position=152.0 Set[09].Value=4000.0

I made this thing for He 111 and Ju 88 Its set up as CCIP sight, looking VERY loosely like a German Lotfe sight reticle .. sort of. The 2 triangles are roll tabs to make it easier to keep wings level Usage: - near target, select bombs, open bombbay if required - switch cockpit OFF ( Numpad DEL by default) and move the view full down ( Numpad arrows or CTRL+arrows or wahtever the keys are) until the sight comes into view - use Zoom to further change the view as required ( looks a bit like looking through a sight .... with some imagination ... - line up the target early, use small roll inputs - push into a shallow dive at high altitude to get the reticle into view and better aiming - drop bombs when bottom edge of target hits top edge of the horizontal yellow line And I updated the bomb positions on the A-Team He 111 to make them sit properly in the vertical bays

Yea I was pretty sure that its not a new invention ;D I thought about blacking out the area surrounding the sight but since the bombardier can look away from the sight and through the cockpit nose glazing I decided to keep the area clear .... Perhaps making a version 2 with blacked out area ... Actually thats a even more interesting way of bombing.. then the player has to adjust view angle manually for early target acquiring and lineup... hmmm..

If bombs are dropped just a split second too late it looks like that... Havent tested from high alt ... 5 km or so was max alt so far Dropping a stick of 8x 250 kg bombs from a steady level flight with hitting the bomb button at the right time its accurate enough ... Proper interval setting is also important Now add some enemy fighters to the scenario and things get interesting....
