Hi everyone, I recently got into weapon modding and wanted to edit some missiles. I went for the Weapons Folder with the Weapons Editor, and some weapons were missing, even tho i can see them and equip them in-game. I wanted to edit the AA-2D Atoll for my Su-22M3, but there's no AA-2 folder inside Weapons folder, nor inside plane folder, even tho the missile is equippable and i can see it/use it in-game. Since there's no Atoll folder, i have no idea how is it possible for me to have it in-game, and even less i know on how am i supposed to edit it through Weapons Editor, since i can't select the folder. I thought it may be a sort of "built-in-game" missile and for this reason not showing in weapons folder (idk i just made an hypothesis). So i tried using the CAT Extractor, but seems like not working... no matter which CAT file i select, it says "error opening this .CAT file, no files can be extracted", how's that? How do i fix it? Am i doing something wrong? Thank you in advance for helping me fixing all these issues or helping me find what i'm doing wrong

Hey i was working on modifying missiles and came across sustainer acceleration and sustainer duration. I wanted to know what it does

I have placed folders with modified .ini files in the mods/.../Weapons folder for certain weapons that would otherwise be available at the time of a campaign I am working on. The weapons still show up as available on the arming screens, however. Is there another way to remove weapons from a campaign? Simply removing the folders does not seem to work as the game pulls default weapons from the .cat files.

Hello everyone, While I was working on SF2 new MENU / GUI project, I realized that I really want to finish working on updating an ordinance list. The reasons: I missed the old day of Jane's FA when I could view the list of ordinance that is separated between AA (Air to Air) / AS (Air to Surface). I decided to work on it, so anyone who wants this can also enjoy SF2 with new ordinance list. I created the notes with abbreviations I am using for the list. The feedbacks are welcomed as always. I will happily update the list if the community wants to see any abbreviations modified, changed, or added. Here is the list: Abbreviations -------------------------------------------------------- <MISSILE PLATFORM - TYPES> AAM AIR TO AIR MISSILE ALCM AIR-LAUNCHED CRUISE MISSILE AGM AIR TO GROUND MISSILE ARM ANTI-RADIATION MISSILE ASM AIR TO SURFACE MISSILE AShM ANTI-SHIP MISSILE M-SAM MOBILE SAM SAM SURFACE TO AIR MISSILE <MISSILE - GUIDANCE TYPES> ARH ACTIVE RADAR HOMING CG COMMAND GUIDANCE CLOS COMMAND TO LINE-OF-SIGHT SARH SEMI-ACTIVE RADAR HOMING LG LASER-GUIDANCE LOSBR LINE-OF-SIGHT BEAM RIDING INS INERTIAL NAVIGATION SYSTEM IR INFRARED HOMING IIR IMAGING INFRARED GUI TGM TELEVISION GUIDANCE TV ELECTRO-OPTICAL GUIDANCE RA RADAR ALTIMETER GUIDANCE RC RADIO COMMAND RL RADIO LINK <BOMB - TYPES> CBU (CLUSTER BOMB UNIT) FFD FREE-FALL DEMOLITION GBU (GLIDE BOMB UNIT) GPB GENERAL-PURPOSE BOMB LGB LASER-GUIDED BOMB LDGPB LOW-DRAG GENERAL-PURPOSE BOMB NPB NAPALM BOMB PGM PRECISION GUIDED MUNITION <ROCKET - TYPES> AP ARMOR PIERCING FFAR FOLDING-FIN AIRCRAFT ROCKET HE HIGH EXPLOSIVE HVAR HIGH VELOCITY AIRCRAFT ROCKET <OTHER> DT DROP TANK ECM ELECTRONIC COUNTERMEASURES GP GUN POD RACK ORDINANCE RACK RL ROCKET LAUNCHER RP ROCKET PROJECTILE TGP TARGETING POD Here is the updated list of SF2 ordinances: NOTE: You will see duplicated names for drop tanks, don't worry about it. It is connected to the aircraft. You won't see duplicated drop tanks in SF2 Menu. This list is directly copied from weapondata. The list is still WIP, there are probably mistakes I have not seen before. So please let me know if you see anything needs fixing in the list. <AIR TO AIR MISSILES> (AAM) AIM-4D Falcon (IR) (AAM) AIM-7D Sparrow (SARH) (AAM) AIM-7E Sparrow (SARH) (AAM) AIM-7E-2 Sparrow (SARH) (AAM) AIM-7E-4 Sparrow (SARH) (AAM) AIM-7F Sparrow (SARH) (AAM) AIM-7M Sparrow (SARH) (AAM) AIM-7P Sparrow (SARH) (AAM) AIM-9B Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9D Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9E Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9E-2 Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9F Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9G Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9H Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9J Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9L Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9M Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9N Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9P Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9P-2 Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9P-3 Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9P-4 Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-9P-5 Sidewinder (IR) (AAM) AIM-54A Phoenix (SARH / ARH) (AAM) Matra R.530 (SARH / IR) (AAM) Matra R.530E (SARH / IR) (AAM) Matra R.550 Magic (IR) (AAM) Matra R.550 Magic 2 (IR) (AAM) Shafrir-1 (IR) (AAM) Shafrir-2 (IR) (AAM) Python-3 (IR) (AAM) Firestreak (IR) (AAM) Red Top (IR) (AAM) Sky Flash (SARH) (AAM) V3A Kukri (IR) (AAM) V3B Kukri (IR) (AAM) RS-2US "AA-1 Alkali-B" (LOSBR) (AAM) R-3S "AA-2 Atoll-A" (IR) (AAM) R-13M "AA-2 Atoll-D" (IR) (AAM) R-23R "AA-7 Apex-A" (SARH) (AAM) R-23T "AA-7 Apex-B" (IR) (AAM) R-24R "AA-7 Apex-C" (SARH) (AAM) R-24T "AA-7 Apex-D" (IR) (AAM) R-60T "AA-8 Aphid-A" (IR) (AAM) R-60M "AA-8 Aphid-B" (IR) -------------------------------------------- < BOMBS > (CBU) CBU-24B Cluster Bomb (CBU) Mk.20 Rockeye II (FFD) M-117 750-lb Bomb (GPB) AN-M57 250-lb Bomb (GPB) AN-M64 500-lb Bomb (GPB) UK 250-lb Bomb (GPB) UK 540-lb Bomb (GPB) UK 1000-lb Bomb (GPB) FAB-100 100-kg Bomb (GPB) FAB-250 250-kg Bomb (GPB) FAB-500 500-kg Bomb (LDGPB) Mk.81 250-lb Bomb (LDGPB) Mk.82 500-lb Bomb (LDGPB) Mk.82 Snakeye (LDGPB) Mk.83 1000-lb Bomb (LDGPB) Mk.84 2000-lb Bomb (LGB) GBU-12 Paveway (LG) (LGB) GBU-12 Paveway II (LG) (LGB) GBU-10 Paveway (LG) (LGB) GBU-10 Paveway II (LG) (NPB) BLU-1 Napalm (PGM) Mk.1 Walleye I (TGM) (PGM) Mk.5 Walleye II (TGM) (PGM) Mk.21 Walleye I ERDL (TGM) (PGM) Mk.23 Walleye II ERDL (TGM) (PGM) GBU-8 HOBOS (TGM) -------------------------------------------- <AIR TO GROUND MISSILES> (ARM) AGM-45A Shrike (ARM) AGM-45B Shrike (ARM) AGM-78A Standard ARM (ARM) AGM-78B Standard ARM (ARM) AGM-78C Standard ARM (ARM) AGM-78D Standard ARM (AShM) AGM-84A Harpoon (RA / ARH) (AShM) AGM-84C Harpoon (RA / ARH) (AShM) AGM-84D Harpoon (RA / ARH) (AShM) K-10S "AS-2 Kipper" (INS / RL) (AShM) Kh-22 "AS-4 Kitchen" (INS / ARH) (ALCM / AShM) KSR-5 "AS-6 Kingfish" (INS / ARH) (ASM) AGM-65A Maverick (TV) (ASM) AGM-65B Maverick (TV) -------------------------------------------- <ROCKET LAUNCHERS> (RL) LAU-3 Rocket Pod (RL) LAU-10 Rocket Pod (RL) LAU-32 Rocket Pod (RL) LAU-33 Rocket Pack (RL) Matra 155 Rocket Pod (RL) 2" Microcell Rocket Pack (RL) 2" Microcell Rocket Pack (RL) JL-100 Rocket Pod (RL) UB-16-57 Rocket Pod (RL) UB-32-57 Rocket Pod -------------------------------------------- <GUN PODS> (GP) SUU-11 Gun Pod (7.62x51mm) (GP) SUU-23 Gun Pod (20mm) (GP) Mk.4 Gun Pod (20mm) (GP) 30mm Aden Gun Pack -------------------------------------------- <DROP TANKS> (DT) 75-gal Drop Tank (DT) 100-gal Drop Tank (DT) 150-gal Drop Tank (DT) 170-gal Drop Tank (DT) 195-gal Drop Tank (DT) 175-gal Ventral Drop Tank (DT) 200-gal Drop Tank (DT) 230-gal Drop Tank (DT) 250-gal Drop Tank (DT) 275-gal Drop Tank (DT) 280-gal Drop Tank (DT) 300-gal Drop Tank (DT) 335-gal Drop Tank (DT) 370-gal Drop Tank (DT) 450-gal Drop Tank (DT) 500-ltr Supersonic Tank (DT) 600-gal Drop Tank (DT) 610-gal Drop Tank (DT) 625-ltr Drop Tank (DT) 650-gal Drop Tank (DT) 1300-ltr Drop Tank (DT) 1700-ltr Drop Tank (DT) 293-gal Drop Tank -------------------------------------------- <RACKS> (RACK) A/A37B-5 TER (RACK) A/A-37B-6 MER (RACK) NAPGACH (RACK) Harrier Twin Store Carrier (RACK) Mirage Twin Bomb Rack (RACK) LAU-88A/A (RACK) LAU-105 DRA (RACK) F-105 Twin AIM-9 Rail (RACK) RPK10 Bomb Rack Fuel (RACK) APU-60-II -------------------------------------------- <TARGETING POD> (TGP) AN/AVQ-23A/B Pave Spike -------------------------------------------- <ECM> (ECM) AN/ALQ-71 (ECM) AN/ALQ-101 (ECM) AN/ALQ-119 (ECM) AN/ALQ-131 -------------------------------------------- <SAM> (SAM) RIM-2F Terrier HTR-3 (SARH) (SAM) RIM-7E Sea Sparrow (SARH) (SAM) RIM-7H NATO Sea Sparrow (SARH) (SAM) RIM-66B Standard MR (SARH) (SAM) "SA-2B Guideline Mod 1" (CG) (SAM) "SA-2C Guideline Mod 2" (CG) (SAM) "SA-2E Guideline Mod 4" (CG) (SAM) "SA-2F Guideline Mod 5" (CG) (SAM) "SA-6A Gainful" (CG / SARH) (SAM) "SA-N-3 Goblet" (RC / SARH) -------------------------------------------- <MOBILE SAM> (M-SAM) "SA-8 Gecko Mod 0" (CLOS) (M-SAM) "SA-8B Gecko Mod 1" (CLOS) (M-SAM) "SA-N-1B Goa" (CLOS) (M-SAM) "SA-N-4 Gecko" (CLOS) I will share the progress of this mod through time.

Hello everyone, I have a question about the location of weapons .ini files. I have been looking for it using CAT extractor. I am unable to find the .ini files for the weapons in SF2. May I ask if anyone know where I can find it? If someone knows which weapons pack is up-to-date and is released for SF2, please let me know too. I will contact author about tweaking their .ini for weapons, respectfully. If the permission is approved, I will start .ini dancing through a long list of weapons. The information and advice are much appreciated, as always. I am still looking for files again in SF2. I am working on the project that sorts the weapon list like I did with the aircraft list. Cheers!

Hello friends! Today I am having a conundrum, I am trying to find a specific Hawker Hunter that has 3 hardpoints ala these images: I know these are Omani hunter FR.10s but the mod thats on here for the FR.10 only has 2 hardpoints. I figure if someone could point me to one that has three, I could do some light skin swapping/INI editing and get the job done. Thanks!

So I'm trying to do something stupid. I want to put the AIM-4A onto the F-51D. I was somehow able to get the AIM-9B onto it but can't get the AIM-4 onto it. I was wondering if someone could point me to what I'm missing to make this happen? Because if I can do this, then I want to swap weapons around with other planes for fun. P-51D_DATA.INI P-51D_LOADOUT.INI

With the added 5 gun calibres came the need to display their tracers differently and this is how they look now: VonBeerhofen

Since stock v1.2's gunvalues don't allow the gun's full ranges to be used and the weapon names don't work when values are in between two callibres the routine was rewritten. It will allow deviations from the standard hitpower without loosing the weapon names and adds the possibillity of a 50mm weapon or higher. The stock values are 2, 4, 12, 24, however any single byte value can be used, so the maximum hitpower value can be 255. That would probably be a callibre the size of a medieval canonball or so, which is obviously not very usefull but it can be set. I've choosen 36 for the 50mm, since the value is the same when the 20 and 30 mm hitpower values are added up which I think will be a reasonable representation of the weapon. Ofcourse the ME262's nosemounted .88 is also a feasable option and I should have it's value somewhere when we tested it with an RAF pilot and friend, may he rest in peace, who flew Meteors in the Korean war and who also described the weapon's devastation It principally means that there's more room to precisely modify the PLANES.DAT's weapon's values to more historical accurate hitpower of weapons, which by default aren't incorporated. Another advantage is that in combination with the plane's armour values planes can be better ballanced against each other in terms of matching the planes advantages/disadvantages vs the other planes. Ofcourse the routine was optimised to run much faster, :) VonBeerhofen

Hi folks,anyone know how to change an ini to give an aircraft asymmetrical loadouts (eg amraam on one F16 wingtip and aim9x on the other) without having to edit loadout ini ?

Hello strikers! I am an enthusiastic campaign builder and i didn't have problems until this I am creating a new campaign with "CubaOTC" terrain, setting a fictional war between Argentina, Chile and Peru All works great (Data, squadrons, flayable planes, missions, etc) except one thing, weapon supplies Tried without "Supply[001].WeaponType=....." and with it, but nothing happens, i used the "Supply[001].WeaponType=....." from the "Falklands" campaign for the Argentinean planes, and nothing again, in "available stores" screen, nothing appears and i dont have any weapons tu use (Empty) This conflict is from 1985, so i dont think that is a date problem [AirUnit019] AircraftType=A-4Q Squadron=3 Escuadrilla de caza y ataque ForceID=2 Nation=Argentina DefaultTexture=post-war BaseArea=Ignacio Agramonte Int'l StartDate=09/07/1985 BaseMoveChance=0 RandomChance=100 MaxAircraft=2 StartAircraft=2 MaxPilots=4 StartPilots=4 Experience=70 Intelligence=50 Morale=100 Supply=50 MissionChance[sWEEP]=30 MissionChance[CAP]=70 MissionChance[iNTERCEPT]=30 MissionChance[ESCORT]=10 MissionChance=40 MissionChance[CAS]=40 MissionChance[sEAD]=60 MissionChance[ARMED_RECON]=20 MissionChance[ANTI_SHIP]=10 MissionChance[RECON]=10 UpgradeType=NEVER Supply[001].WeaponType=AR_LAU-3A Supply[001].Quantity=80 Supply[002].WeaponType=AR_AIM-9J Supply[002].Quantity=80 Supply[003].WeaponType=AR_Mk81 Supply[003].Quantity=320 Supply[004].WeaponType=AERO-3B Supply[004].Quantity=80 Supply[005].WeaponType=Tank300_A4nf Supply[005].Quantity=30 Supply[006].WeaponType=Tank300_A4Q Supply[006].Quantity=80 This is what i have, but i dont see anything wrong Someone knows about this?

I installed some add ons to my WOV to the latest patch. The weapons (ammo) worked perfectly and mysteriously I cant shoot to other planes. Any suggestion?
