Also I noticed that in the args list in Modelviewer, I can't seem to find a No. 22 arg. But I'm sure I've seen it listed in one of the .Lua files... We just need to figure out a way to trigger that animation! Do we know if the Gripen probe actually works filling fuel? Peace, Fred Yes Gripen AAR is possible. Regarding arg 22, is it on the jf or gripen model?

For the JF-17 the fuel boom is not animated but for the Gripen it is. So right now you can have them install the boom and the gripen will extend but there is no way to put it back and its not animated. The Ai, which will fire whatever ARG it needs to, can already refuel. I do know that I need to fix the the boom location just a little bit, its a tiny bit to far down. 2 hours ago, fatspacepanda said: Yes Gripen AAR is possible. Regarding arg 22, is it on the jf or gripen model? 22 is the DCS wide arg used for the refueling probe or probe door. Most of the planes use arg 22. I had the VSN guys make it so arg 22 and 901 will fire the animation for the probe. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
fatspacepanda Posted February 5, 2021 Posted February 5, 2021 Please excuse my noob question.. Does it matter what lua file has the code for changing argument value?

I mean people can use the same code as the JF-17 if they dont care about the probe being able to be stowed. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Vine_dog Posted February 6, 2021 Posted February 6, 2021 I'm really liking all of the support for the mod on this forum. There's a decent cockpit model for the grippen on turbosquid...if I was to purchase said cockpit for this mod, would any one/ones be willing to help me take this mod to the next level? To anyone who knows anything about modding knows that this is a taller order than it may seem but it CAN be done with a bit of time and love. 2

Weezer Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 @Vine_dog "There's a decent cockpit model for the grippen on turbosquid..." Yeah, I thought about buying one of the available 3D pit models out there, and I came across an even better pit than the one on turbosquid. https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/aircraft/military/jas-39-c-gripen-cockpit "Jas-39 C Gripen cockpit. Geometrically correct as much as possible (not 3d scanned, drawed from pics and blueprint). Every main assembly is organized to its own layer, subassemblies to sublayers, to easily switch on/off. Every object is separated for further editing. Unfortunatelly it is not unwrapped and has overlap, because it was originally designed to import DCS World. And DCS is not sensitive for that." From what it seems, this cockpit model was intended to be for this guys Gripen Mod. Read up on his thread, and he made some great progress, but unforunately the project stalled out. Tried to contact him here on the forum, but to no avail... Maby we could get togehter a few of us, collect some money and make the purchase, and see what can be done with it? If not, I'll buy it myself, lol Peace, /Fred 2
currenthill Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 That is really cool! I have no knowledge or idea of how that cockpit model could be used in DCS. But if it would be possible to incorporate it, to any extent - I'm in. The cost of the model is not an issue. _____________________________________________________________ Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill Questions about my assets - check my FAQ!
