zcrazyx Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Just wondering if anyone could make a weapons mod for the mirage, i have got as far as using two weapons (aim-7 and 54) as a test however they show up as a visual model but do not appear on the weapons selector and also when mounted they stop the pylons from showing. 2

zcrazyx Posted August 10, 2016 Author Posted August 10, 2016 Why? why not? would be cool having aim 9,120s etc as well as Russian ordnance, there is an f5 mod where you drop a lot of bombs of different sizes as well as having overkill drop tanks. 1
razo+r Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 But you have to life with incompatibility, and with the F-5 you have luck because of that easy avionics and pylon selection, M2K is different, but it maybe works if you put a tank on it, maybe they are selectable, but because it doesn't recognise it they won't show up on the weapons panel, but maybe you can select them, you have to try that if you want to know it

You're missing the point of this sim. "As close to reality as possible" Perhaps you are better off playing a first person shooter? You will be playing by yourself offline if you are able to make the changes. 1

The PCA won't recognize any weapon that is not part of the aircraft's standard package. At best it will recognize it as a fuel tank, at worst it will cause a CTD.

I'm not missing the point of the sim, I enjoy flying in multiplayer but what I am saying is that hilarity could ensue with this sort of thing and some servers do not block "illegal" loadouts. As for the fps thing, you say it as an insult also I do enjoy both sims and fps, arma is considered a milsim and people mod that too, it's fun to mod and also to enjoy the base game.

Hook47 Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 To the OP- firstly expect to take some flak for even requesting such a mod- sadly it seems the point of modding for fun even if the weapons were not used on the real plane pushes button for some members of the forum. I'd recommend asking a mod to move this to the Modding forum where this thread won't get WOOT with arguments about why you want to mod or how you should just go play an "arcade" game or some such nonsense. I'd recommend just avoiding engaging in any arguments I have made several M2000 mods that expanded the load out somewhat realistically and added night vision goggles, however during my modding I've never found the way to make a weapon that wasn't originally working with the M2000C to work, with a couple exceptions to IR missiles like the Aim-9 and R-73, however ever since some recent changes to the M2000 code I cannot get those two missiles working either. What I can do is expand the options a bit by doing things like adding the twin ejectors to more pylons letting you carry more bombs. Getting weapons to fire off the mirage that didn't come with it seems to take a significantly higher level of modding, if it's actually possible. The most I've seen so far is just getting them mounted but not working. If you do use a mod I would recommend using JGSME or Mod man to allow you to install and remove the mods so you can pass online integrity checks.

In reality you simulate the other guy's weapons on your platform. Obviously this is unrealistic! Lord of Salt
