I have been working on an ini file of an MM38 Exocet for use as an ASM by surface ships in SF2:NA, however I am having an issue. The missile seems to only launch when the "ShowMissile=" entry is set to "TRUE". If I set it to FALSE the ship will not launch the missile. Now I have tried the same test missions with other ships with "ShowMissile=FALSE" set for their SSM's. They work just fine and the ship I am setting the MM38 Exocet up for also shoots when I use the RGM-84A from WhiteBoySamurai's cruise missile pack. Any idea what would cause the "ShowMissile=" flag to make a weapon not launch most of the time? I get the feeling that I am missing something that is staring me in the face but I don't know what. Here is to Data from the ship's data.ini file for the gunner and missile.

If anyone has more accurate data on the MM38 Exocet please let me know what numbers need to be adjusted. The sources I have don't say what the BoosterDuration and BoosterAccel should be for example.

File Name: Cruise missile update pack for SF2:NA File Submitter: WhiteBoySamurai File Submitted: 06 June 2012 File Category: Weapon Packs This package includes 97 third-party weapons which I have updated to SF2:NA standards, adjusting for real-world specifications where possible. These include every single cruise missile that I have in my collection, plus a few exotic variants of them (i.e. Soviet anti-radiation versions) which I've tweaked for consistency. Some of the weapons are by me, but the vast majority were from the SF2 Ordnance Shop pack. Kudos and credits to the original modellers. If you made one of these items and would like individual credit, do not hesitate to contact me. And if you have more cruise missiles or updated models for existing ones, please let me know right away. Note: These weapons now use the new cruise missile data type from SF2:NA, so they will NOT work with earlier versions of the game. Click here to download this file
