Captmercy,

Very nice work...an aircraft that could actually carry more than its own weight! :wavey:
 
Thanks CM.

I downloaded and fired her up.

A couple of things: The install places 39 new entries into the OBJECTS_DP and SCENEDB\weapons\scenery folde. However, loaded up in the sim I only get two weapons load out choices.

The first is "guns only" which also includes a massive center line drop tank and the second is a "bombs" load out which also includes a starboard and port-side drop tank. No other load-outs and no clean load out.

Is this correct?

I also got a "failed to load" message when first attempting to "Fly Now". I figured it had to be related to all the new OBJECTS_DP entries and as soon as I dumped all 39 of the new OBJECTS_DP entries everything was fine and it didn't affect the two available load-outs for the Skyraider at all. They were still there with drop tanks and bombs all present and accounted for.

Are any of those 39 new objects/weapons supposed to be available as weapons load outs on the Skyraider?

Or were they all meant for the Mig and Mystere? That would explain it. I didn't install either of those AC. Only the Skyraider.

Just wondering.

Thanks,
MR

PS Is one of those new OBJECTS_DP entries one of the pilots. Because I am showing only one figure in the cockpit.
