Flyable mod not working

[Mav]

I have a flyable F/A-18C mod and in the editor the aircraft comes up highlighted and says I have the option to be the pilot for it. However, when the game loads the aircraft is controlled by AI, no option to fly, no cockpit or anything. Any ideas how this could be fixed? Thanks!

Since last update most of my were unflyable.

 

The problem comes from "entry.lua".

 

There is two things (in red) to changes : do NOT use a self ID to declare a plane.

 

And i have to change the line "Make flyable"

 

Here is what i have done for L-39 :

 

declare_plugin("L-39_SVS",

{

installed = true, -- if false that will be place holder , or advertising

dirName = current_mod_path,

version = "1.2.12",

state = "installed",

info = _("L-39 de la Silverstar par Totoaero."),

 

Skins =

{

{

name = _("L-39_SVS"),

dir = "Theme"

},

},

Missions =

{

{

name = _("L-39_SVS"),

dir = "Missions",

},

},

LogBook =

{

{

name = _("L-39_SVS"),

type = "L-39_SVS",

},

},

InputProfiles =

{

["L-39_SVS"] = current_mod_path .. '/Input/L-39_SVS',

},

})

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

make_flyable('L-39_SVS', current_mod_path..'/Cockpit/',nil, current_mod_path..'/comm.lua')

 

dofile(current_mod_path..'/L-39SVS.lua')

dofile(current_mod_path.."/Views.lua")

make_view_settings('L-39_SVS', ViewSettings, SnapViews)

@totoaero - can you share the entire entry.lua file?

[Urban072]

anyone able to fix that giant modset from the S77th that popped up around here some time ago? :music_whistling:

[totoaero]

@john x : all the entry.lua is in my previous message.

 

@urban072 : which planes are concerns ?

[Urban072]

@john x : all the entry.lua is in my previous message.

 

@urban072 : which planes are concerns ?

 

In the S77th Pack,

 

Eurofighter, F14D, FA-18D (Su27 Pit w/ Su25T avionics), JAS 39, Rafale, F4E, FA18C (Su27 Pit w/ Su33 avionics)

 

Will edit this if there are any more broken ones that I discover.

 

EDIT: It's pretty much all of the flyables I have, including MiG 31 and F-15E outside of the S77th pack.

If it's the Rafale as i have found : this is the entry. lua (insert all the follwing line in the entry.lua) :

 

declare_plugin("Rafale_M",

{

installed = true, -- if false that will be place holder , or advertising

dirName = current_mod_path,

version = "1.2.12",

state = "installed",

info = _("."),

 

--binaries = { 'FC3', },

 

InputProfiles =

{

["Rafale_M"] = current_mod_path .. '/Input',

},

 

 

--Skins =

-- {

-- {

-- name = _("Rafale"),

-- dir = "Theme"

-- },

-- },

 

Missions =

{

{

name = _("Rafale M"),

dir = "Missions",

},

},

 

LogBook =

{

{

name = _("Rafale"),

type = "Rafale",

},

},

}

)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

make_flyable('Rafale_M', current_mod_path..'/Cockpit/',nil, current_mod_path..'/comm.lua')

 

dofile(current_mod_path..'/Rafale_M.lua')

make_view_settings('Rafale_M', ViewSettings, SnapViews)

Any chance of a flyable Hind using the Ka-50 cockpit please?

[Urban072]

Managed to fix the F14D, FA18D, FA18C, Gripen and F4E.

 

When I try to fly the Eurofighter as well as others the game just crashes out, tried fixing these with no success :(

[totoaero]

Does the Rafale work ?

[Urban072]

Does the Rafale work ?

Yeah :) Thanks to the lua that you posted before, I also went through and fixed a few others :) However, other flyables will just CTD.

[limoncino]

Using your instructions I can't use F-14D as player.

What can I do?:helpsmilie:

[Mav]

Thank you, figured that out like an hour after I posted this, should have let everyone know. Thank you again!

[totoaero]

@limoncino : can you show us the entry.lua of the F-14D ?

I don't know why planes like Rafale or Corsair work and I can't fly F-18 and F-14D.

[Urban072]

I've already sorted the entry.lua for the Super Tomcat, I will attach it in this post.

It doesn't work, I don't know why.

I use 1.2.11 version, maybe this?

[totoaero]

I think the entry.lua given by urban072 works for 1.2.12

 

change this line : make_flyable('F-14D VSN', current_mod_path..'/Cockpit/',nil, current_mod_path..'/comm.lua')

 

with

 

make_flyable('F-14D VSN', nil, {self_ID,'FC3',old = 16}, current_mod_path..'/comm.lua')

 

It may work but i'm not sure. I have taken this line from a personal mod that work in 1.2.11 with the same cockpit as F-14D.

It works for me anyways, it's based on the same way you fixed the Rafale. I did this to a few others of the S77th collection :)

[limoncino]

It doesn't work. I can't make F-14D flyable.

Thank you.:cry:

[Stratos]

What about the Hind? Anyone got it flyable somehow?

[aqswde]

@totoaero,I use harrier mod,make_flyable use self_ID,aircraft is controlled by AI,but use nil then error:can't open debriefing.please help!

sry,my English bad

[Kiwiknight]

I found how to fly the F-14D, change this line in the entry.lua:

make_flyable('F-14D VSN', current_mod_path..'/Cockpit/',nil, current_mod_path..'/comm.lua')

 

with this:

make_flyable('F-14D VSN', current_mod_path..'/Cockpit/KneeboardLeft/', {nil, old = 4}, current_mod_path..'/Comm.lua')

[razo+r]

But you know that There are updated mods

 

The Same like those

[aqswde]

I passed the test,only used mig29 cockpit,Should be written as {nil, old = 2 or 32}

Other reports an error
