Dino Cattaneo's F-14D Version 2.28 Up and Ready

Dino, Thank You. I tested in the air refuel but it looks like this option doesnt work still.

VERSION 2.28
April 22nd, 2014
COMPATIBILITY NOTE: the release of P3DV2.2 has solved the compatibility issues with the existing code.
- Fixed bug in fuel system preventing external tanks to work with Tacpack
- Fixed fuel quantities (more correct values)
- Fixed bug preventing wing sweep air bags to deflate in oversweep mode
- Tweaked engine performance tables
- Fixed minor bug in Tacpack weapons configurator
- Improved Tackpack laser designation logic (but bomb still missing the target in many instances...JDAM is still the preferred and default choice)
- Minor improvement to NACES textures

As you can see there are only minor changes... but still they have been sitting on my hard disk for a while, so here you go. You can download the files from the side bar, as usual.

NOTE: VERSION 2.27 HAD A SMALL BUG IN THE FUEL SYSTEM... IT HAS BEEN SUPERSEDED BY VERSION 2.28. Sorry for the inconvenience!
 
@Yoyo

I never had the time to test the new refuel feature... the big chance is that the refuel should not be immediate and the refuel rate is close to the real deal. This means it may take several minutes to fully refuel the A/C.
Again, I have not tested it and it may not work...
I can provide a patch to backtrack to the old "immediate refuel method (which uses standard FSX commands and works for sure)...

Let me know it is cornfirmed not to work at all...

(BTW this also applies to the new F-35 version, too)...
 
Yep, I stayed after the tanker near 2 mins in Tomcat and no any 1 lb more of fuel. I taken a test with old F-35 version and in 1 sec I have full fuel tanks - so it looks like in air refuel doesnt work now and before last update. Must to test this new 2.40 of F-35 from Today.

Real time of refueling is very good option and idea, TY but it looks like not working option. Can someone confirm this too?
 
Thanks,

third party confirmation would be helpful.
If it is confirmed not to work, I will backtrack to the old "instantaneous" refuel...

BR

Dino
 
BTW, another feature I had no time to test is the IFF Friendly cue...
A FRIEND cue should appear below the target box if a missile has a L&S target, and is locked and within shooting range and the target is friendly...
 
YoYo, where did you get that tanker? Is it a TacPack tanker? Who's model?


KA-6D of Razbam, I force this model to work as AI Tanker with Tacpack.



@Dino,
my hands hurt but second good news, it works but too same like with F-35 2.40 , very very slow.

Hard work, but for 3-4 minutes I recived only 300 gallons (?), but the quantity of fuel incrising.
