I would hope that any attempts to use this addon in MP is done on a server
dedicated to that use. In the past, it seems, that when weapons were used
in MP, the simobjects created did NOT have a finite lifetime but instead resulted
in 'ghosts' being left on the server and they coul;d only be removed by a hard
reset of the server.
I think some servers forbid the use of this addon and require that it be disabled
prior to entering a MP session to prevent the 'ghosts' from overloading the server
and thus interfering with others session.

Maybe this function has anything to do with this?

I was going to ask the same! We need a boomer KC-135 or KC-10 for the F-35A
I saw that the drogue KC-135 which is usable in tacpack is based on an old FS04 model by Rok Dolenec. I did a quick search on flightsim.com and several E and T models with boom came up. I'm off to test them with tacpack

kc-135t2.zip will add a static boom to the drogue KC-135T package, or it can be installed as a separate tanker

Good find! I will try it as separate model.
Edit:
Ok, I see Fixed boom, but cant refuel, dont know why (will try with A version).
In TPM:

Excellent views of weapons release. I don't think I paid much attention to the Hunter until now; very nice!
I am only keeping FSX installed at the present time because of the VRS Super Hornet and TacPack. I have moved my other favorites to P3Dv2. In particular I recently encountered a strange CTD which I am still investigating. My FSX only runs in DX10 Preview which kills my AI textures and some textures on flyables.
You can experiment with various tankers and what I have discovered is that some planes will not hold altitude very well or maybe it is my novice hands on the controls?

Trial integration of the TacPack into the Hunter. Just for fun.
Dave, I LOVE it!!! Please keep going with this! I'd also love to see some classic ordnance to go with this classic jet.
Have you also considered a P3D v2 job, modded with live weapons (Developers license)?

Is the VRS TacPack is compatible with CaptainSim Weapons? because I has used CSWeapon with previous version of IRIS A10. And now with the new one, when I turned on the Maverik with the video monitor I have CTD

When I beta tested the A-10, it was a completely separate install from the older non-TP version, so it should not cause any issues. Really no reason to play with the CS Weps, as now you have a more accurate A-10A+. No word on any helo additions yet, so your Mi-24/35 mod with the CS Weps should still be fun. Do you have the experimental features checked in the TPM?

I have uninstalled CS Weapon to see if this is the problem, but still have this

Some features, like FLIR imagery, NVG emulation and HMD (superimposing the image over the geometry) are achieved by hijacking Direct X rendering...this is probably what is causing the issue in your system. This does work for the vast majority of the users, but may not work for everybody. I guess that turning the experimental features off will disable the video (but get rid of the crash).
This is unfortunate as the feature is pretty great.

I have CS Weapon and TacPack and no any problems - but for sure - not on too same aircraft! For example - I dont install CS Weapon for Super bug 
, Dino's F-35, T-45, F-14 (TP powered - deeply coding aircraft), but for the others - it can be work (example: guns, sidewinders on default Hornet - with CS weapon and Carrier from TacPack in too same time). No need to uninstall it. Perhaps You installed CS Weapon on Hog Driver II from Iris - aircraft with programing systems from Tacpack. It wasnt good move.
