Hi all,

 

I am wondering is there a way to fly Mig-21 with Lock on? I know this is possible in FS 2002. But i want to engage an F-16 with a Mig-21 (preferably type Bis).

 

Thanks,

Thanks guys,

 

Black Hawk, how to convert file with 3DS extension to .lom etc. and what mess up you are suggesting for meint.xml?

 

Regards.

Well I'm not sure. You need some sort of a converter plugin for 3D Max. I don't have Max and Denny aparently doesn't have the necessary plugin. Hopefully someone from this site will be able to find a way how to do it. And actually I'm not sure about the meinit messup, it would be enough to replace the (for example) Su-17.lom (or what's the file for that plane) with a MiG-21 model. And you would have a Fishbed with FM of the Su-17. :smartass:

That's how Denny replaced the Carl Vinson carrier model with a Kiev carrier model. He left the filename the same (VINSON.lom) but the shape was different. The thing is that now the Kiev has all the weapons of the CVN and it's model which is hardcoded. I hope that I explained it well because now when I read my reply I seem confused... :joystick:

You explained it well enough Black_Hawk :) .

 

The plug-in in question allows you to convert a .max model to *.lom format, but note that you need access to 3DS Max 7.0 or 8.0(the plug-in only works with those max versions) and that you need to make the animations for the aircraft's moving parts in order for them to work with the Lock-on code......so there is a little more to it than just exporting the max model to .lom format :) .

 

Cheers,

Thanks guys. I will give a try to what Black Hawk has suggested over the weekend. If I can't make it, I can still fly against a Mig-21 in Falcon 4.0 Allied Forces. Somehow i don't like Falcon 4.0 as i like FC. Its a good sim, but lacks the realism of FC.
