MiG-35?

To add some useless Information: The first few A4D-2 (A-4B) also had no refueling probe initially and the Radar altimeter under the left outer wing (barely visible in the picture) came with the A4D-2N (A-4C).

The bucket (Füllwerkzeug) is grouped together with the Gradient-tool (Verlaufswerkzeug in german) in newer versions. Edit: You can also arrange the menu according to your needs and have it ungrouped in newer versions.

I'd say early F-4M Phantom FGR.2.

I think your case isn't covered in the game. You can exclude weapons from a station that have more weight, are of larger diameter or are longer than... But you cannot exclude the other end (weapons, that are lighter than..., shorter than..., etc.). A separate weaponstation with specificstationcode-weapons could be one way out of this.

I use the current Photoshop CC through a yearly subscription. Theres some sort of Photographers-Package bundled with Adobe Lightroom for 12EUR/Month. Photoshop alone would be more expensive. I also have Photoshop CS3 installed for some older PlugIns, that don't work on CC or PS 64bit. Afaik the "free" CS2 was intended to be free only for people, that bought a current version. Nevertheless, my CS3 was also "free" somehow...

^--- Make this some sort of "Welcome"- or "Must read"-post here

I don't laugh...I simply admire his patience... Skyhawks in several variants are stock planes, they came with the game...the A-4B in particular came with SF2 (the one with the mercaries).

I admire your patience.

I'm not really familiar with this plane, but I had a look and it seems those serials are for the AT-26 2-seater-variant only (182 produced, minus 16 for export is 4462-4628 - just 1 to much, maybe a prototype.) 4630 and 4635 are serials I found for the AT-26A single-seater. AT-26 Information source I'll have a further look tomorrow. Edit: Some more I found. * = Republic South Africa EMB 326GB - Xavante, licenced Aermacchi MB-326GC (x 182) - AT-26: Xavante for FAB (x 166 total) and export - AT-26A: Reconditioned MB-326KC Impala II (11 of 14 bought from RSA*) - RT-26: AT-26s converted to reconnaissance role - XAT-26: Special test a/c for GEEV (Grupo Especial de Ensaio em Voo) https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=16826.0 Edit2: The guns seem to be 30mm DEFA-cannons with 125rpg or 300rpg. (2 different sources). 125rpg seems more realistic I guess. Sorry, misread the question. Above Info is for the single-seater.

Have a look at a plane that has countermeasures...(ECM + CM-Dispensers). You'll find the data in the planes data.ini below the wingstation-stuff.

Obviously TK made a bunch of switches grouped together, so unfortunately you cannot deactivate just the 2 switches. If you want to remove them anyways, you can add the following to the cockpit.ini to make them disappear. xxx = next free number. Instrument[xxx]=REMOVE_toggles03 [REMOVE_toggles03] Type=inactive NodeName=toggles03

Did you try to hide the switches away in the cockpit.ini? The names of the nodes can be found with Mue's LOD-Viewer.

You have to set the path to your SF2-directory in Extras->Settings. Otherwise it doesn't know, where to find the LODs.

Good to see you back in action!

The TA-4-Model isn't getting any younger, but that's what we have...Getting there. TA-4H of TNI-AU (Indonesian Air Force).

Size doesn't matter...something one could check without ANY effort. If the BMP works, than just use than one... Otherwise: Convert your BMP to a simple JPG, change the callout in the planes ini-file from BMP to JPG (not the data.ini) and it will also work...

The only use of Alpha-Channels in SF2 I know of is for decals --> TGA-files. They are used to cover areas, that should not be seen on the decal (everything, except the number or whatever the decals shows). All other files (BMP, JPG) do not require or use Alpha-Channels. If I load the stock-loading-screen (blurred brownish F-4 picture) into Photoshop the file doesn't even have an Alpha-Channel...

A quick last reply by me. Some of your questions are pointless, because with little effort you could find answers or at least another option for further trials. I think you said somewhere in your posts, that you are a fast-learner and have experience with modding for years...really? The picture you're drawing in your answer is of a total newbie, that just discovered SF2 and TW out of the blue... SF1 and SF2 are different for sure, no question about that, but still there are a lot of things similar...and that should not be a problem for a fast-learner, with your background. The boards are for helping people, yes. But excuse my ignorance...If someone wants help, everyone can expect at least a tiny bit of own effort, which IMHO you lack often enough... You ask a question, get an answer or at least a hint for further trial and all you do is ask more and more questions (and as spinners correctly mentioned...you ask tons of different questions one after the other in threads, that have nothing to do with it...if an answer is helpful, nobody will ever find it again in that mess), instead of just doing anything or test something. That's the picture I have of you. Your computer won't explode, if you just test something here and there. And excuse me again, maybe it's the language barrier (I'm also no native english-speaker), but for me your reaction to an answer is not always the nicest (I tried to sound as kind as possible here...). The "no one helps you with what you want to know"-bit is actually YOUR problem...Sorry to say that. Remember your gunsight-thread? There are posts after posts of people trying to help you...and in the end you had a total different problem than people thought the whole thread... So it was actually YOUR problem to not correctly describe your problem...and as people said already....make screenshots...you didn't... Don't blame people for your faults... People will help you in this community...they are just not always on your side when you snip a finger (actually a german quote...). This whole community-game-flight-sim-thing is a HOBBY of all of those people here... They relax while modding or playing the game. They are not here to answer your questions or do something for you... And yet they do! In the beginning my thoughts where exactly like yours...I asked and nobody was enthusiastic enough to help me out. Today I understand those! There are 2 options here...quit anything and be angry about all those egoistic people here or continue, learn stuff on your own, contribute to the community and be actually part of it. I chose the 2nd and it was the right decision. I learned Photoshop and Blender from scratch and although I still cannot build planes, I can make fakepilots for my favourite planes, which gives me more opitions to do more modding...an actual win for me! Be part of this community, try things out and learn stuff...

Reinventing the wheel again and again and again and again... You could ask billions of questions and it still won't work, because you just ask question after question. Just try out stuff...experiment with stuff...check released stuff versus yours...make a MOD-folder just to try things out. If it doesn't work...then who cares...start again. That's how many people here did it and obviously it worked! If you have serious questions, ask and I'm sure people WILL help you out. You want much input...fair enough...we all want to...but the way you do it is not the best. ;) I like to help people out with my very limited knowledge of this game, but if I know from the beginning, that the answer to the actual question is of little interest, because the next bazillion questions are in the line already or you know it better anyways, then why care? If your custom loading screen doesn't work, then it is on your end. I am sure (absolutely, to be exactly), that there are tons of working examples found here on this site or in the download-section(*), that you could just download, try out and check those files versus yours to find the error. At the moment I'm looking for some pilot-model that I can use (and repaint) for one of my mods....guess what? I am downloading stuff and look for myself, rather than asking 5 milion questions... Sorry if I sound harsh, but checking the boards for news and only seeing tons of (often enough) pointless questions is a bit annoying. And yes, I am in a bad mood today, so sorry again :P Edit: added (*) --> You even have some mod already to check your loading-screen-error already....remember the Malaysian Skyhawks Mod from your other question lately? Have a look...it has loading and hangar-screens...and both are working! So don't just ask - do! ;)

Indonesia LowVis Camo...TA-4H/J 2-Seaters are next.

Just set the path of your SF2-Installation under "extras-->settings" in LOD-viewer. Otherwise it doesn't know where to find the CATs.

Some more Asian Scooters...this time from Indonesia! Actually this was the first mod I release here a looong time ago (with the help of dtmdragon - Dan ) - Now it's time for an update!
