Russian Flyables

[Hawkeye60]

See here,

 

 

To fix the cockpit of the Mig-23,

 

Replace the view.lua in the mig-23 folder with the one included below.

 

This may also fix cockpit graphic errors in the other planes.

 

The line to edit in the view.lua is underlined

 

ViewSettings = {

Cockpit = {

[1] = {-- player slot 1

CockpitLocalPoint = {4.2,1.45,0},

 

The center number should be increased. I added 1.0 to 0.45 to get the line above.

 

I have only tried this with the Mig-23 so far and it worked fine.

 

(update, I have fixed most all of the cockpits using the method above. I use between 1.0 to 1.3 addition to center number)

 

Have Fun.

 

 

Update 2,

 

Would you like to try carrier ops with all the Russian flyables?

 

Open the Mig-23MLD.lua and add the code below,

 

LandRWCategories = 
       {
           [1] = 
           {
               Name = "AircraftCarrier",
           }, -- end of [1]
       }, -- end of LandRWCategories
       TakeOffRWCategories = 
       {
           [1] = 
           {
               Name = "AircraftCarrier With Catapult",
           }, -- end of [1]
           [2] = 
           {
               Name = "AircraftCarrier With Tramplin",
           }, -- end of [2]
       }, -- end of TakeOffRWCategories

under the line,

 

WorldID = 1,

 

Should look like this,

 

Quote:

return plane( "MiG-23MLD", _("MiG-23MLD"),

{

 

EmptyWeight = "10550",

MaxFuelWeight = "3800",

MaxHeight = "18600",

MaxSpeed = "2500",

MaxTakeOffWeight = "17800",

Picture = "MiG-23MLD.png",

Rate = "30",

Shape = "mig-23",

WingSpan = "14",

WorldID = 1,

 

LandRWCategories =

{

[1] =

{

Name = "AircraftCarrier",

}, -- end of [1]

}, -- end of LandRWCategories

TakeOffRWCategories =

{

[1] =

{

Name = "AircraftCarrier With Catapult",

}, -- end of [1]

[2] =

{

Name = "AircraftCarrier With Tramplin",

}, -- end of [2]

}, -- end of TakeOffRWCategories

 

-- Countermeasures

 

 

This should work on all the aircraft.

 

I do not know if you can get in the air though.

 

Without a hook, landing will be a adventure!

 

You can also try adding a hook command to the keyboard default.lua to see if it works. I have not tried this yet. If it works, the hook will be invisible (it is not modeled)

 

Someone else on the forums has done this.

 

Works 1.5.4.

 

Have fun.

Ok..... quick update,

 

You CAN take off the Kuznecow carrier in the Mig-23!

 

Taxi to the end of the deck, apply the brake, got to full throttle and go!

 

Great fun!
