Question about the Sim Skunk Works F-104

I have the original one and am considering getting the tack pack version.
When reading the information on their product page it says weapons are active if you have vACMI
I don't, does tac pack work without vACMI? Is all the functionality in tac pack the same as vACMI?
 
I thought vACMI is part of the install, when you have the plane? Revisiting this one leaves me puzzled: do the weapons work?

:dizzy:

Just go to the SSW site and download update " SSW-FRF104G-FSX-2-TACPACK-3.9.1 " and install it to get Tacpack to work on it....assuming you have Tacpack installed on your system, of course :smile:

The last Zipper version works either with TacPack and/or VACMI.
No need to have both, but one of them is needed.
One can choose to use it with TacPack (default) or vACMI, in this case the sswf104g.ini or sswf104s.inI must be edited in order to choose the weapon engine,ie:
Code:
# 
WEAPON SYSTEM 
ENGINE: vACMI or TacPack 
#
 [WEAPON_SYSTEM] 
{ 
ENGINE: vACMI;
}
Take note that with last vACMI-fied and TacPack'ed versions previous weapon system is lost.
