In the "F-111B_DATA.ini" file, find the tailhook part : [Tailhook] SystemType=ARRESTER_HOOK MaxDeflection=30.0 Retractable=TRUE DeployTime=2.5 RetractTime=2.0 ModelNodeName=hook HookArmLength=2.70 AttachmentPosition=0.0,-6.72,-0.28 AnimationID= and change "MaxDeflection=-30.0" to "MaxDeflection=30.0". The tailhook won't deploy under the 3D model anymore but it will work as it should. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Here's the full fix I use, I added a second tailhook : [Fuselage] ... SystemName[xxx]=Tailhook (in the original data.ini xxx is 012, don't change it anyway) [VertTail] ... SystemName[xxx]=TailHook2 (xxx next number in sequence, it could be in the fuselage section, mine has already thirty SystemName entries, that's why I put it in the vertical tail part) and in the landing gear section : [Tailhook] SystemType=ARRESTER_HOOK MaxDeflection=45.0 Retractable=TRUE DeployTime=2.5 RetractTime=2.0 ModelNodeName= HookArmLength=2.05 AttachmentPosition=0.0,-8.5,-0.4 [Tailhook2] SystemType=ARRESTER_HOOK MaxDeflection=-45.0 Retractable=TRUE DeployTime=2.5 RetractTime=2.0 ModelNodeName=hook "Tailhook" is for the tailhook to work (it's a fake arresting hook by ini) and "Tailhook2" is for the tailhook to visualy deploy on the 3D model in game.

I did that with a rotation movement for the needles, instead of a position movement. For the A-4B [ClimbDiveIndVert] Type=BANK_INDICATOR NodeName=needle_climb-dive_vert MovementType=ROTATION_Z ValueUnit=DEG Set[01].Position=0.0 Set[01].Value=0.0 Set[02].Position=20.0 Set[02].Value=9.0 Set[03].Position=20.0 Set[03].Value=171.0 Set[04].Position=0.0 Set[04].Value=179.99 Set[05].Position=360.0 Set[05].Value=180.01 Set[06].Position=340.0 Set[06].Value=189.0 Set[07].Position=340.0 Set[07].Value=351.0 Set[08].Position=360.0 Set[08].Value=360.0 [ClimbDiveIndHoriz] Type=PITCH_INDICATOR NodeName=needle_climb-dive_horiz MovementType=ROTATION_Z ValueUnit=DEG Set[01].Position=0.0 Set[01].Value=-180.0 Set[02].Position=20.0 Set[02].Value=-90.0 Set[03].Position=0.0 Set[03].Value=0.0 Set[04].Position=-20.0 Set[04].Value=90.0 Set[05].Position=0.0 Set[05].Value=180.0 I thought the same, it's better if it works even without any real use. But in a what-if aircraft that could be turned into a perfectly working ILS

When you give them an aerial target they drop all the air to ground ordnance. So you have to create a version of the rocket that has : AirToAir=TRUE ...in its data.ini entries. In the case of the UB-16 pod you have to create a UB-16 pod for air to air targets loaded with the air to air rockets (and I guess it would be used for air to ground as well).

It took me long to start trying stuff with HUDs. I wanted to use all the width available and I'm happy with the result, especially the ILS on the side and the VVS indicator. I did other weird things like punching holes in the belly Old material for both aircraft and cockpit.

"OpenCockpit=TRUE" permits to see more of your own aircraft like the fuselage or the nose or the cockpit frame. On the other hand when you're in a cloud or in the fog you see cloud or fog in the cockpit, between you and your dashboard.

Uuh, it's MiG monday !

Hit by AAA but RTB safely. Landing gear design approved

Nice one Yakarov

In the cockpit ini file it's : [HelmetSensorL] Type=INETERNAL_FUEL_QUANTITY_INDICATOR CounterNodeFormat=HSLdig%d MovementType=ANALOG_COUNTER ValueUnit=LB Scale=100 [HelmetSensorR] Type=INETERNAL_FUEL_QUANTITY_INDICATOR CounterNodeFormat=HSRdig%d MovementType=ANALOG_COUNTER ValueUnit=LB Scale=100 so I guess they're "helmet sensor" thingies.

It's a pleasure to have good news from you Keep on recovering the best you can (even better than before) And in the end we still need you here Take good care !

@Wrench In this case you can update it, when it's someone else's release you can't.
