SF2 Avionics Community Pack - - Alpha release v0.3
Eagle114th replied to Eagle114th's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
@starfighter2 The A-4M and A-4AR cockpits looks GREAT!!! I would love to include them in SF - CAP pack when you release them with yourr names in the credit page! I look forward updating the wonderful cockpits you are doing with the avionics I am making for A-4M and A-4Ns! I recently managed to get ARBS TV and HUD fixed and tweaked. Here is the lastest progress with both HUD and TV: (NOTE: By adding the ARBS by data.ini, it does not use the hue colors as deafult TV uses, so in order, to try my best to fix this, the tilted grayish green color is applied on the ARBS TV.)

There is an interesting discovery I made about the angle of camera of ARBS TV; You can edit the angle fo camera to accurately match the gun angle too, if that is hwat you desire. Here is codes from both DtmDragon / Nyghtfall cockpits of A-4Ms: See the code: For example, DTMDragon's A-4M (1978)'s data file for boresight and gun angle: And in cockpit.ini: And in the avionic.ini: And then if you set the camera CameraAngles=0.0,-1.5,0.0 Then it will match the gun firing angle besides using it for angle bombing attacks.

@Lex2Limit Hello Lex2Limit, I found the issues with inverted (up-side) TV cam when switching to ARBS TV. The issue is this code: If you set it more than 180, this may have caused TV to be upside. So I reduced it to 25.00000 and it is back to correct view. Now that is solved, I am able to have correct working ARBS TV for A-4M and A-4N series! Eagle114th -

@Lex2Limit That is true, I am attempting to fix it. Right now i am tryhing to fix the AA MODE HUD to ahve depressed gun (GunBoresightAngle=-1.5), it does not work It only work for AG mode (with CCIP for gun) I am currently working on A-4N Ayit series which also use A-4M cockpits. This is problem: When switching to gun for AA mode, when firing, it still shoots shells below the gun sight: However, when switching to AG mode for gun, it aligns with the sight: UPDATE: I DID IT! Got it fixed. What solves the problem is this code: Had to set -1.5 at the middle part (Y Y value) for depressed AA. What i laerned is, the value in GunBoresightAngle= and AimAngles in data and avionic file, then I msut edit ViewAngles to match that. Now I have proper alignment of the gun sight and gun for both AA and AG. Mission accomlpished! now I need to fix the inverted TV when switching to that via radar switching mode. Eagle114th -

Hello everyone! Real liofe have been keeping me busy for a while. Got back workong on the mod projects; Going through A-4s and revisiting them, I realizedf that I am missing A-4M. Reading from the fligh tmanuals and researching, it is very interesting information! A-4M originally started with radar and fixed gunsight like earlier variatns of A-4s: Please note, this fligh tmanual is from 1971, when A-4M began being in the service. However, in the later upgrades, the cockpit is changed with more advancved avionics, such as HUD while radar is removed. I am workong on both DTMDragon and Nyghtfall cockpits for both of their A-4Ms pack. It is unfortuante that there is no TV screen attached ot the cockpit, so unless there is A-4M cockpit mods, like DTMDragon and Nyghtfall, I am using the cockpits that they are using as the closest to the A-4M cockpit. By the way, the HUD have been tweaked and updated, along with the glass tilts (green-bluish shade), changed HUD color, and higher quality of optical sights. The TV texture have been chagned as well, while using the updated TV from the projects on F-4 Phantom II series. Flowing A-4 Skyhawk series proejcts are almost completed, will go thorugh F-8s, F-89s, F-102, and F-106 next. WHen all aircraft receives the updates with up to date HUD / Replacing old system withi new systems for accessiblity/ other avionics parts, then SF - CAP will finally move on from Alpha to Beta version! I am happy with the new sytem so far, will use it for rest of next many more aircraft to work on. UPDATE: I forgot to add, the A_4s seriers now include the updated .ini files from great mods of Wrench / Nyghtfalls / Crusade r for all TW A-4s. I am currenlty working on Israel A-4s based onthe mod packs by DTMDragon. This mod pack includes the updated avionics files for both TW and modder's mod packs. Eagle114th -

Hello everyone! The F-4 are almost completed! In meanwhile, I am revisiting the A-4 series and the Israel's A-4E (1973) and A-4H (1973) are being further improved with the HUD, based on excellent work of DTMDragon. the gun sight are also polished in higher resolution. I do not have the detailed information on the HUD. If anyone have the information on it, please send it ot me. screenshot: (ZOOM IN) Eagle114th -

Good morning Lex2Limit, That is noted and no worries. We all have our own preferences in various era. At least,we love F-4s Phantom II! I am very glad that I work on F-4s avionics as you and our modders do, it opened me into the world of F-4s that I did not know about. For example, how Jappanese F-4EJ KAI, Western Germany F-4F (ICE), Israel F-4E 2000, and othe F-4s evolving from F-4E in different ways with upgrades. It is vey interesting leaning days. By the way, thank you for sharing the videso that takes you years to find. I am continuing to seek for what I seek for and hope ot find them someday. Cheers! -

@Lex2Limit Taht is excellent videos! You have a great library of the resources. I would like to request if you have the information on the following aircraft: A-4s optical sight, F-89H / J optical sight, F-89J radar scope, F-102 and F-106 optical sight and radar (video), and finaly Mark 11 Mod 2 gunsight used by F-8C. they are so difficult to find, so I am hoping you might have the clues on them.

Hello everyone, Along with excellent works shown by Lex2Limit, I wouldlike to show the owrks I have been doing on F-4F (ICE). What I learend is that F-4F (ICE) uses AN/APG-65, which is also used by F/A-18A I believe. I do not have the information on what the radar scope looks like, so I base it on the F/A-18A for now. (NOTE: F-4F ICE does not have HUD, instead they still use AN/ASG-26 LCOSS from earlier F-4F series. The cockpit is based o nthe great work of Ravenclaw_007: Eagle114th -

Hello Lex2Limit, Can I ask where did you find the pictures from? The F-4E and F radar scope pictures and videos are quite challenging to find. Eagle114th -
