crazyeddie Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) Its placed in the SA Map so that suggests its destined for either a ship or an aircraft, but it is clearly the ship fired version because there is no parachute attachment, so that would confirm to me its not designed for, or there is no code as such, to launch it from an aircraft or helo. Not yet anyway. I have not had time to try what PRCCowboy talks about above but that would seem to be worth a try.

crazyeddie Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) Small experiment - Using JSGME I overwrote the LT_F_5B with an MK46 from the SA Map pack - it can be dropped from the P8 and it does sink the target, acting just as the LTF5B had. However, its shrunk in size because of whatever it was that PRCCowboy did with the LTF5B - So theoritically if he undid that you could use the MK46 instead of the LF5B and it would look correct, but you would of course loose the LTF5B. (Not that that would bother me really - as far as I can tell the only aircraft that uses that is the Ju88 and WW2 isnt my thing) However, again, it still does not work with helo's. (Which is my next port of call !!) Edited September 28, 2022 by crazyeddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to request an Indian navy skin also further down the line when and if you do the Westland seaking.

Tomcat-Flyer Posted October 2, 2022 Author Share Posted October 2, 2022 Since this is a community mod, I need your help on how to get a sling load on an AI helicopter. I've been looking at some other ED helicopters capable of carrying cargo loads, I've copyied some parts of those scripts to mine, but with no success so far. So if you have an idea of how to give an AI helo the capability of carrying cargoes, please let me know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember doing anything other than those lines in the lua. maybe the InternalCargo section impacted the sling capacity?

Tomcat-Flyer Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 It turned out it was my fault... ...I didn't set the cargo-release-triggerzone, so the task was not valid. So now everything is working as it should! :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcat-Flyer Posted October 15, 2022 Author Share Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) Version 1 is out! https://mega.nz/file/xX0xBYaS#-DQZjPwlj1yFYoago1-P4aJKkR3dDUxidZ4bb0CATrM Including the SH-3G and SH-3H. For Paintkit use this link: https://mega.nz/file/tDkTUTKB#Yp_iBnNCwlXpilxrdbqIFaA7nvC1mA9A4Lj8dveswz0 Known issue: When the AI landed on PGUA (Guam AFB) RWY 24L and taxies left on Taxiway F it will explode for some reason. Next step will be to add external fuel tanks and to create the Westland Sea King. Have fun! Edited October 15, 2022 by Tomcat-Flyer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yuganator Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Very Pleased to have seen this on the downloads page, Excellent work on this! I'm also very happy to hear the demand for the Westland variants aswell, mainly due to the additional role variations. There will historically accurate Seaking variant for nearly every map! (I would lying if I said there wasnt a little bit of british patriotism aswell) Massive respect to all involved in this project, both in DCS and the real world! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
