Nightstorm Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 A small mod to swap out the CAP-9M training missile used by default with the CATM-120C training missile. Optional textures included for all the AIM-120 series missiles. This modifies the aim9_family.lua and therefore will most likely fail an integrity check. The modified line is tagged with --NIGHTSTORM for ease of integration with other mods. It needs to be installed in your main folder. The MFD will still display information consistent with the old training missile. For example, the Viper's SMS page shows TA9LM on the pylon where it's equipped. I was unable to determine how to change this. Any aircraft that could use the CAP-9M can use this instead and it will be replaced on the stores menu. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9y9qkor8d44mo57/CATM-120C.zip?dl=0
ST0RM Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Just a heads up, there is a weapons training pack that has the CATM-120 skin on the live AIM-120 as well as -9X. That way you dont lose the CAP-9. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3308281/
Nightstorm Posted January 21, 2021 Author Posted January 21, 2021 Thank you. I actually started with that mod and then I was trying to implement the included CATM-120C but I couldn't get it to appear on the jet. This was the only way I found to actually use the CATM-120C. I do indeed hope that all of the training weapons from that mod get implemented at some point.
ST0RM Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 The CATM-120C isnt coded, just modelled. As you found out. Yep, good workaround until more of the training loads are enabled. I know its low priority, but shouldnt take that long to enable. For most people, they dont understand the value of them.
Nightstorm Posted January 22, 2021 Author Posted January 22, 2021 It was also interesting to find that the AIM-120A is modelled as well with it's own texture. It's nice to have options so hopefully that too will get implemented at some point.

I am hoping a suite of CATM weapons across the board, with proper blue markings and even some fins missing like we sometimes see on real jets!

Nightstorm Posted November 7, 2021 Author Posted November 7, 2021 A few are included now in the F-22 enhancement mod for Grinnelli's F22. I have the 120C, 9M and 9X included and they can be added to other aircraft. I've tested them on the F16. I've seen that the AGM-65 and 88 also exist but haven't been activated yet. Presumably they could be.
