You can't add the "physical" hook without rebuilding the model (ie: having the MAX file) But, otherwise it's 3 simple ini edits to add a 'virtual' hook. Many examples already exist (FJ-3M Fury comes right to mind, some of my Luftwaffe/Kriegsmarine WW2 What Ifs...) just have to figure out where you want it to (virtually) hang from. For position, I'd reccomend just aft of the belly light wrench kevin stein

This should help some, I hope. http://forum.combatace.com/topic/54856-converting-sfwo-terrains-to-sf2-usage/ wrench kevin stein

So, what IS a Vampire in French??? looking good guys! wrench kevin stein

irfan dosen't create the alpha layer needed to "hold out" parts of the background. (think of the alpha as a matte, like used to be used on motion pictures, before CGI) You'd need PhotoShop or GIMP (gimp is a free d/l) you make gunsight tgas just like you would a decal wrench kevin stein

paulo & co's revamped Vemon... Departing Luqa, overflying Valletta's Grand Harbor I'm liking how this turned out!! wrench kevin stein

WOOT WOOT!!! 1st downloader!! Been waiting for this !!! (btw, the hunter pit works a charm!!!) wrench kevin stein

in the 08 patch level, you CAN turn targets on and off with dates (in SF2, also) [TargetArea073] Name=Tajura Nuclear Center Position=349808,563641 Radius=3000 ActiveDate=1/31/1981 InactiveDate=12/21/2012 Location=2 Alignment=ENEMY nothing to it, really wrench kevin stein

maybe these decals will help... http://wrench1smog.com/wrench19.html scroll down till you find the S-99 wrench kevin stein

We were supposed to be getting the -2 (?) for KAW. Haven't seen it yet, unfortunately wrench kevin stein

Libyan Mirage, out to cause some trouble wrench kevin stein

it really dosen't matter with the "LimitedNations" statement ... all mine are merged =mind you, each DOES have it's own exe=, and it;s VERY cool not having region-inappropriate aircarft showing up (like Indian Fishbeds, and Chinese J-6s!! over the Canary Islands, or Southern California) I know of someone that experimentating with an all-in-one merged install that INCUDES WW2 aircraft. You just need UsersLists for each bird, the LimitedNations= statmenet in the terrain, and no worries! wrench kevin stein

the strobing??? You could put 2 lights on the same spot, and white and a red, and have the white a fairly bright (0.35 - 0.55), CanFlash=TRUE, and give it a long delay time. Start at 2.0, and see what it look like //strobe// [TailLight2] SystemType=LIGHT Color=0.42,0.42,0.55 Position= 0.06,-5.63,1.03 LightSrcOffset= 0.07,0.07,0.0 Brightness=0.35 LightSrcRange=0.3 CanFlash=TRUE FlashTime=2.0 (these are postions off the mustang; obviously different for a mirage) worth experimentating with. YOu can even have the left and right flash at different time by adjusting the FlashTime= to whatever your want (2.5 on right, 3.5 of left or whatever you like) wrench kevin stein *I Hate Electrical Work!!* (old mechanic joke from an old mechanic!)

I am utterly AMAZED!!! This never worked before in 1st Gens ... just renamed the extracted Hunter 9 cockpit ini, to Vampire and Venom, adjusted each pilot positon to match the data ini, dropped in their folder and THEY WORK PERFECTLY!!! They're right were they should be (matching internal and external views). Unbelievable!! Some internal coding must have gotten changed. Works for the stock Vautour, using the Metor pit too. this is SUPERB!!! RIGHTEOUS!!!!! (you can tell, it makes me kinda happy!) wrench kevin stein

needs a "cleaner" prop-exhaust emitter. Didn't we have one that had almost no trail??? wrench kevin stein

I've always wondered if I didn't OVERDUE the Iraqi air defenses.... I guess not!! wrench kevin stein

NICE NM skin dude!!! I like it!!!! wrench kevin stein

reminds me of ATF/Fighters Anthology ... there was a Sea Raptor in ther (albeit single seat) wrench kevin stein

did they have a RWR gauge? Cause you can convert a gauge mesh to create a working RWR screen (like the 2ndary ADI) I did that on the F100 and F104s. Not wholey historically accurate, but it works! wrench kevin stein

drone Hun's would be nice too ... there should be a skin for it around here somewheres too. with the limited nations, as I understand it, should prevent standard/garden varitey MiGs from showing up (hopefully). Creating an unarmed aircraft, AI controlled that attacks you shouldn't be too hard wrench kevin stein

and all the gauges/interiors are there? and the position is correct??? (meaning: your cockpit view to the wings matching the exteranl view's pilot position, in the relation to the wings) Hmm... I'll try to find time today to test this with the Hunter 9 pit (wait...does that exist in SF2I/Exp1??). Rebuilding Libya right now .... wrench kevin stein

two words: Libyan K'firs. gimme a break!! Rather watch Hot Shots... wrench kevin stein

increase the rolling radius for main gears about 0.15, and the tail wheel about 0.10, see how it sits. Too low righ now wrench kevin stein

remember, too, if you point to a stock cockpit, like the Hunter (which should be pretty damn close), the pilot's position in regards to the airframe WILL be off. If you extract the Hunter's cockpit ini, make the adjustment to properly position him, you won't have a cockpt in-game, as the cockpit ini will be looking for the /cockpit folder. Which means, extracting ALL the Hunter pit bits, and dropping them into the Venom's /cockpit folder. (not really hard, but time consuming, and newer, inexperienced end users will most likely get into trouble trying to figure it out. And as they can't be included...???) OTH, has anyone tried to edit a stock cockpit ini (position-wise), but NOT have the /cockpit folder present?? [CockpitData] Directory=cockpit <--- HUDMode=CAGED,AA,AG RippleQuantity=1,2,4 RippleInterval=60,100,140 is there a way to change that line, and still have a functioning/visible pit, with all the stuff still in the ObjectData cat??? I've never seen it work, personally, but who knows?? wrench kevin stein

N'o, i't w'a's t'h'e a'p'o's't'r'o'p'h'e, o,r, m,a,y,b,e t,h,e, c,o,m,m,a, ???? (patpend) wrench kevin stein

Go for it! You're welcome to use my decals, if you wish! wrench kevin stein
