Don't forget the convert the bmps to jpg; they're smaller (and therefore take less space and bandwith to view/download)

Tried that didnt work

Hey Guys,

I wanted to post some screenshots but the files are to large. What is the best way to post shots here. Sorry but Im not on these here computer machine things.

Are any of the AAMRAM series of air to air missles fire and forget? in other words can I select another radar target after I launch one at the current target?

Im addicted to strike missions in my beloved F-4S and the F-4G Wild Weasel V, next for me is the A-7 series. I really love a mission that calls for the destruction of a runway. In that case I load up on SnakeEyes and scream in low, frying chickens in the barnyard as they say. I like to unload my bombs down the centerline of the runway, cratering the hell out of it. Then its full AB, chaff,flares, and climb for the clouds. I tried to attach some screenshots to illustrate this, but the file was too large. As soon as my dumba** figures out how to make the file smaller I attach some screenies.

Thanks Wrench, dodging SAMs all over the place now.

Do I need the weapons editor to edit those files and/or add the newer SAMs etc that Wrench was talking about? Ive been dreading doing that as it sounds like a pain in the butt, but I suppose Ill do it if it has to be done. BTW, Wrench, can you send a link to your site?

Sorry forgot to add that Im talking SFP1 here not WOE. Can the SAMs be upgraded with addition of add-ons?

Ive noticed that Im not seeing any SAM batterys at all in Single Missions. Im running the latest version of the game SP4 Wpns Pack etc etc. Ive been flying in the late 90s with different add-on aircraft. Any ideas on what could be going on??

Thanks for the info guys, nice pic of the pit BTW,

Does anybody know if enhanced pits are available for the F4s or F4g Wild Weasel V?? I looked around but didnt see any at the usual sites.

Trust me, I have no illusions about my flying skills!!! Im a pi** poor jet jock for sure, but what do you expect from an old grunt! I have noticed that my sparrows NEVER get a kill but AAMRAMs work pretty good.

Yeah, I figured it out pretty fast, my neighbor was a Navy Phantom driver, he squared me away with a quickness. I tried to get him to play SFP1 but he said if he started in with the game he would never stop and his wife would divorce him. He also said I couldnt fly my way out of a paper bag.

Thanks guys, got it worked out now. lets see if I can put those new counter-measures to good use!! enough admin, time to fly

I edited the ini files as per your instructions. The only problem is that the flares and chaff seem to come out of the rear section of the upper fuselage. Anyway to fix that??

Thanks for the intel dump. Ive never tweaked a game as much as I have for SFP1, just goes to show ya how addictive/fun this game is

Roger that Ill check it out.

Anybody ever considered creating a campaign around a fictional conflict between Iran and "the Great Satan" set around the time of the hostage crisis? I doubt it would be super difficult to put together (says the man who has no idea how it would be done) I think there already is an Iran/Iraq war campaign out there.

I was thinking that the story line would be something along the lines of this...

Iranian take over of the Embassy goes horribly wrong, resulting in the death of most if not all of the staff. Pres. Carter grows a pair and unleashes on the bastards. The Russians could even be drawn into it to make things fun.

Would it be possible to add Chaff and Flares to the F-4S?? I love flying strike missions in it but I think it would benefit from the addition.

Where do I find those files??

In the most recent version of SFP1 what is the minimum altitude at which your wingman and other a\c will maintain formation? I used to able to keep my formation together down to around 700 ft but now all they do is wig out and bob up and down around between 900 and 1000ft if I try and hug the deck.

OK, I got'em all working just fine now.

BTW I DLd the SU-27 and got my a** smoked trying to kill one in both the F-15 and F-16. That is one bad dude.

OK, now that I edited all those stinking files none of the aircraft that have been edited will show up as opponents, back to nothing but MIG 21s.

I only see the MIG29A would I just do the same thing for the C model?

For what its worth....

Id love to see a tricked out C-123. It seems to me that the kind of missions described in "Flying through Midnight" would be difficult to accurately model in a game like SFP1. For that matter truck busting missions over the "Trail" in a gunship (AC-119, AC-130, AC-47) while dodging SAMs would be really cool. And following yet another wild a** tangent, would it be possible to fly missions as a FAC in WOV ?

You didn't screw anything up; you'll need to edit the 'Data.ini' and 'Loadout.ini' files of the planes to activate the weps in the Weapons Pack.

I just noticed that none of the add on Soviet a\c that Ive added have missles, in what way must I edit the files to activate the wpns pack?

BTW my hats off to you guys, this is one of fastest forums Ive come across in terms getting a useful response
