View File BOL countermeasures fix for the F-15C, EF-2000, JAS-39C, Tornado F3, NF4 Tornado F3, F-14A/B, F-14D, F/A-18 This pack corrects the countermeasures on the following aircraft to include the Saab BOL Advanced Countermeasure Dispenser: *F-15C http://combatace.com...ck-version-231/ *EF-2000 Eurofighter http://combatace.com...urofighter-sf2/ *JAS-39C Gripen http://combatace.com...for-sf2-series/ *Tornado F3 http://combatace.com...ado-f3-for-sf2/ *Tornado F3 (NATO Fighters 4) http://combatace.com...-update-pack-4/ *F-14A & B http://combatace.com...d-f-14b-tomcat/ *F-14D http://combatace.com...297-sf2e-f-14d/ *RAAF F/A-18 http://combatace.com...ike-fighters-2/ The BOL countermeasure dispenser is a 160 shot dispenser that has been integrated into a AIM-9/ AMRAAM launching rail (LAU-7, LAU-127/128/129,CRL,MPRL). The BOL is a non pyrotechnic dispenser that uses air scoops on the dispenser and the wing vortex of the aircraft to disperse its packets of Chaff. The countermeasure is launched rearward from a port in the rear end of the rail. For IR threats a new burning chaff product is being developed. For the above aircraft the BOL launchers are normally loaded with 160 chaff each which frees up the aircrafts existing pyrotechnic launcher/s for a full load of flares. That is what this mod recreates. The weapon station that carries the BOL launcher on the above aircraft has been made to stay even when the station is not loaded otherwise you would have chaff launching from mid air when you had no weapon loaded on that rail to make the node show up. -USAF and ANG F-15C fighters had the four wing sidewinder/AMRAAM rails replaced with BOL versions around 2000. -USN F-14A/B/D Tomcats had the BOL launchers fitted in the early 90’s in place of their two sidewinder rails. -Australian F/A-18 Hornets had BOL dispensers added to the sides of the outer wing pylons, I have been able to paint these onto the skin. -Unsure when the Tornado F3 was equipped with the BOL but they are on the two inside AIM-9 rail positions. I am unable to make the dispensing position move with the swinging wings so the chaff is launched from the position the rear of the sidewinder rails are in when the wing is in the fully swept position. -I have been able to paint on the details of the BOL launchers on the Gripen rails as the way the skin was done allowed for it. The Gripen rails still disappear when not loaded as there is no dedicated position for short range missile rails like the other aircraft and the BOL launcher is only used when an air-to-air missile is loaded on that station. http://www.saabgroup...sure_Dispenser/ http://www.saabgroup...uct%20sheet.pdf Credit goes to the Authors of the original aircraft as all I have done is made a few alterations. Instillation: Simply copy and paste the included data.ini files into the correct aircraft folder and overwrite. Submitter dtmdragon Submitted 04/03/2011 Category Other  

Thats the stuff I'm talking about lol my modding skill don't quite extend that far yet lol. I know is a big task but it doesn't hurt to ask

Could someone please do me and the other kiwis out there a huge favour and overhaul/update this New Zealand terrain for SF2? I tried using the instructions here at combat ace but there are still various issues that require expert help. Cheers, Dan.

For the cockpit I used the F-15E cockpit with the HUD and radar display from the Gripen with the figures changed to reflect the RBE2 Radar. These are all just interim measures till someone comes up with an accurate FM, cockpit and avionics. Looking forward to seeing what Profi comes up with. Dan

Defiantly! It's been on my to do list but just haven’t had the time. FM, weapons and engine details in the A-4KU_data.ini file represent the more powerful engine and larger weapons capability/weights of the M/KU model Skyhawk so you might want to do a complete aircraft and transfer all that data across to the data.ini file of the A-4F_74 that goes with the lod files etc Cheers, Dan

What co-ordinates do you use for the position of the new pilot? I can’t seem to get it to sit right. Thanks, Dan

Thanks!

View File Modern RAF Smart Bombs Modern RAF Smart Bombs. Includes: -Enhanced Paveway II -Enhanced Paveway III -Paveway IV In order to simulate the fact that these weapons can be either GPS or laser guided depending on what the aircrew decide before dropping them I have included two of each type. One is GPS guided and the other is laser guided. On my RAF aircraft (GR4, GR7, GR9 and Typhoon) that use these bombs I have used the loadout.ini file to load a mix of GPS and laser guided versions of the same bomb to imitate that flexability in the air. Credit goes to 331KillerBee for his Ordnance Shop II where these weapons have been modified from. Drop the files into your weapons folder to install, easy as that.

Thanks for your messages of support this is something you always see on the news and think 'this will never happen to us.' I am I career firemen here in NZ and our Urban search and rescue teams (USAR) are part of the Fire Service and made up of 90% specially trained career firefighters. We quite often give our crew mates who are on the USAR teams a bit of s**t about it since they are constantly on call and carrying pages around that never go off and are all geared up to deploy anywhere in the world but never get sent. If only we knew.......

MAJOR UPDATE: 14/02/11 Thanks to alejandro all 3d models are now correct. Squared off tail fin, braking parachute, varies aerials and antenna unique to the New Zealand A-4K Skyhawks have now been added. Due to the way they have been created with the fake pilot method an overhaul was required. I have also re done the markings on all skins, things such as walkway lines, stencils, warning markings etc are now historically accurate. A few other minor faults have also been corrected. When you re install this mod you will need to delete all previous RNZAF A-4 aircraft folders (A-4_70, A-4_72, A-4G_RNZAF, A-4_Kahu and A-4_Kahu_II) and override all files when you install it

Clarify it's the node/mesh name I'm after so I can make the right edits in the data.ini to get it to disappear for a mod I'm working on.

Hi guys, I need some help on the mesh names of two aerials on the A-4F. I can't seem to upload any pics for some reason so here’s a link to the third wire support forum where I've posted the same question with a picture. Thanks, Dan. http://bbs.thirdwire...php?f=14&t=8246

A-10, got low and slow right behind one and gave it hell with no effect

Same with the AN/ALQ-99

Oh and you will need to delete the previous A_4K_70 & A-4K_Kahu folders from your mods/objects/aircraft folder or you will end up with duplicated skin folders etc. Sorry forgot to mention in the install instructions. P.s. feedback and suggestions welcome. :)

The Mi-8 seems to be invincible to cannon fire from another aircraft when you try and shoot them down with gun. Any idea what to change in the ini files to fix this? P.s. it still gets taken out by AIM-9’s as normal. Thanks, Dan

UPDATED 31/01/11 RAF letters added to wing tip tanks after Pasko helped me out with the mesh names. However there is a small bit of bleed through on the bottom of the tanks from the decal. Because of this there are two folders in the download: One with the wing tip decals which is historically accurate. And one without the decals if you can’t live with the bleed through lol. You choose.
