sp0nge Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Hey i just saw this thread and thought it might be pretty cool to have it. It was posted in Lockonfiles forums under the addons section. Posted: Tue Nov 28, 2006 2:08 am Post subject: Civilian aircraft? Hey, Is it possible to convert FS2004 planes into lock on, or just any Lock on civilian craft out there? I thought flying along side a 747 would add some news aspects to my missions. Thanks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- :D Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
DPS Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Tu-154 would be even better. An Air Moldova Tu-154 better still!!
sp0nge Posted November 28, 2006 Author Posted November 28, 2006 I reckon it would open up stacks more opportunities for ... everything ... Great idea :D Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
SuperKungFu Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 i dont think it can be done because the files from ms2004 are not in .3ds files so you can't import it into 3dmax unless you can somehow covert those files. Also keep in mind we can't add new slots into the game, we can only replace objects. So that 747 would have to have the FM of a transport plane like a C-130 or whatever. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
sp0nge Posted November 28, 2006 Author Posted November 28, 2006 I suppose. Converting would be a good choice though. If we can't add anything new...What did ED replace with SU-25T...? And with the Navy Supermod, what was replaced with the F-111, MiG-29K, etc. No sarchasm, i wana no wat im missing out on :( Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
SuperKungFu Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 What did ED replace with SU-25T...? they didn't because they are the developers, they can add their own slots but its out of our power. And i don't have the navy supermod installed, but i assume the Mig-29K replace the regular Mig-29A or S. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
sp0nge Posted November 28, 2006 Author Posted November 28, 2006 Both MiGs are still there..AFAIK...lol Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
SuperKungFu Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 Again, like i said i never installed that mod. But it could have taken over the Su-33 since it has the hook. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
sp0nge Posted November 28, 2006 Author Posted November 28, 2006 Also still there. Oh well. It was Britgliderpilots mod incase ur interested... No need to elaborate on the topic :) Btw, save u visiting my other post, do u by any chance happen to know of exactly what having the effects tab up does.. and what does it increase...?

SuperKungFu Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 you mean pushing up the effect in the options menu? You basically get fire+smoke on high i think on medium is only smoke low i dunno, never went that far down. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
51GRIZZLY Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 As far as i recall there was talk about implementing a civilian AI aircraft to LockOn some time ago i think it was a YAK 40 or 42 cant find the tread anymore though :(
Jay Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 That would be nice!

I can't forget how funny it was to shoot down a DC-10 in the FA/18 Korea sim (I know I'm crazy, no need to tell me that again :D) You're crazy J! ;) Even if there is a possibilty to convert those models I won't use such an add-ons. I don't need to see another one FS with poor incorrect FMs (747 with FM of Hercules :music_whistling:? No way! :doh:). Even movie makers should aware from implementing a different kind models than LockOn standards 'cause spread gonna be visibile.

britgliderpilot Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 I suppose. Converting would be a good choice though. If we can't add anything new...What did ED replace with SU-25T...? And with the Navy Supermod, what was replaced with the F-111, MiG-29K, etc. No sarchasm, i wana no wat im missing out on :( They were always in the code - they were in there for Flanker 2.5. In Lomac they lay dormant - no 3D models supplied and not assigned to any countries in the MeInit, so by supplying a 3D model and a file tweak you could have both aircraft back again :) To insert an aircraft from scratch requires that the code be modified to allow it's presence, as well as to throw in some basic flight model data. This can be done *relatively* easily by the devs if a model is supplied, but it's still a bit of an effort. Remember that at present there's no neutral coalition, either - the civilian aircraft would still necessarily be treated as targets by any AI units. Isn't there a pic of some kind of civilian airliner floating around the 3D Modelling forum? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/britgliderpilot/BS2Britgliderpilot-1.jpg

sp0nge Posted November 28, 2006 Author Posted November 28, 2006 Thanks Brit Well, we still could get rid of some unneccesary AC. :music_whistling: C-130 is a good option IMHO Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
