Model(Weapon) exchange

[Sawamura]

Hey everyone,

im currently working on a droptank for an model, that is replaced with the Su-27 model. But the Su-27 has no standart droptanks, so i want to replace the wingtip jammer pods(ecm) with the new droptank model, i created.

 

That i can continue work, i would need to get following informations:

What are the names(model names, i find in the LO folder) for the jammer pods of the Su-27?

Also, where can i find the (most likly a config file or simillar)file, where i can change/manipulate the weapon coordinates in relation to the aircraft(so the coordinates of the weapons, that they will be on the pylons and not somewhere floating)?

 

I want to attach this, to this, as weapon. It should be able to apply these droptanks with the loadout function on the ground.

 

 

That would help me a lot.

Thanks a lot for every help and tip. :thumbup:

The Problem is solved. But for everyone, who wants to know what I did, here are my steps.:smartass:

 

1: Go to the ME and take a look in the payload editor, how the weapon/container/... you want to replace is called. Then keep in mind, which aircraft you chose and which pylon you used.

 

2: Open the Scripts\Database\Names.lua and search for the name. You may have to replace the spaces with "-" or "_". If you found it, you also got the CLSID. Now you can check, if the CLSID is also used the the Aircraft's lua at Scripts\Database\planes\. If not, you got the wrong one.

 

3: Now you have to open a file in the Bazar folder. It depends on what you are going to replace. For bombs take the BombTable.sht, for missiles the MissileTable.sht and for other the ContainerTable.sht.

Now you can search for the exact name you found in the Names.lua and there you will find the name of the file for the .lom/.cmd file.

 

 

I recommend to use Notepad++, you have a lot of search functions (search a term in every file (you can filter) in a folder.) and the files can be viewed much better than in the M$ Editor. Here you can download Notepad++ http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ (freeware):thumbup:
