The AH-1G Cobra and the UH-1B "Huey" used M200 19-tube rocket launchers. The Navy uses the 19 round LAU-61C/A and the seven round LAU-68 D/A rocket launchers. These reusable launchers have an external thermal coating that greatly prolongs cook-off protection time. Full production of these launchers began in June 1985. //================================================================================================= I Get Confused Myself But There Are Mentions Of Longer Tube Variants Such As XM157B.

Thats Downright Nasty And One Of The Main Reasons I Keep My Torrents Apps In A Cage Unless Im Downloading A Specific File Like Team Fusion Mods For CLOD-Cliffs Over Dover.That Well Known Seven Headed Hydra Is The Preferable Internet Highway Of Pirates World Wide And You Can Always See The Flags From Offending Nations Such As South America And Former Eastern Europe Balkan States.Downloading Stuff Like That Puts Your Whole System At Risk From Trojans,Worms,Keyloggers Not To Mention Being Illegal.I Would Think Face Book Will Respond Fast To Protect Their Own Internet Protocol.

I Agree With mue's approach.The Need For An Object Texture Editor Without The Use Of A Object Converter Is The way To Go.This Should Not Preclude Permission From Object Author To Upload Skins Unless Author Has Already Granted Permission To Do So With Original Readme Attached Or Reference To Object,Texture Author Mentioned.Attached SA-5 Variant By FastCargo I Have Several Vega-Dubna Variants FastCargo's Quotes From Readme I have included all the texture templates along with the reference materials I used to build the models. Note there were several paint schemes...plus pictures of missiles in various states of repair. The templates should make it easier to make paint schemes for specific theatres...and to make better skins for the launch rail and Square Pair radar.

I Know That Place.

Another Good Addon To The Toolbox. I Use umc2v1.3 From John D Bradley aka Plastic Bonsai To View Early Generation Exported Lod's, Picked It Up At Gulf Knights Airbase Site When It Was Available. Useless Except For One Critcal Function. You Can Convert Less Complicated Lod's To Object.x And Import Into Lithunwrap 1.3 And Then Export UV Maps. Brad Bolthouse Also Has A Hand In UltimateUnwrap3D Pro Which Claims To Unwrap SF2 Lod's. At The Point Where umc2v1.3 Crashes You Can Then Use 3D Object Converter By Zsolt Kárpáti To Open The Next Generation Of Lod's But Like UltimateUnwrap3D You Will Have To Pay For Full Function. Last I Checked 3D Object Converter Was At V4.80 Originally Found At 3DLinks.com A Site With A Wealth Of Information. Once You Get Up To The Level Of Lod Exporter With Bump Map Support This Utility Will Fail To Open Lod's. This Nifty Little New App Will Get A Foot In The Door Of The Next Generation Of Lod Exporters. Nice Work mue !!

A Great Tool And A Good Time Saver.

Need A Good Fullback

I For One Am Happy With What We Have So Far. While Access To SF2 .LOD Files Are Still Restricted They May Become Available At A Later Date. As For The Game Engine A Lot Can Be Changed Via Data Tweaks.Even At The Last Patch Level There Was Still Some File Heap Errors That Were Rendered Inert By TK. Take For Instance The Default SA-8 And SA-8B Launchers Set Up As Mobile Sams That Used The Same Naming Conventions In The Weapons Folder As Well As The Ground Object Folder. Left SA-8 Folder In GroundObject File As Is And Created SA-8L And SA-8BL Folders. One Process I Use For Tracking Down CTD Problems Is To Fire Up Procmon Through WSCC By Sysinternals And Drop To Taskbar Making Sure My Filters Are All On And Capture Events And AutoScroll On. After A Session With SF2 I Bring It Back Up And See How The Game Compiles Itself. So If TK Releases Another PC Title,Patch,DLC, Thats Fine By Me, If Not There Is Still The Modding Community.
