Missing weapons

[MaskRider]

Looking for some missing weapons:

af_ijn_60kg_bomb (A6M2_Zero_grn)
wep_rl_pylon (Nakajima E8N1 "Dave")

Thanks,

af_ijn_60kg_bomb I'm going to guess is from the AF Midway packs.

Pretty sure RL_pylon is from the Aerocrate weapons pack. You can get it at SOH

Thanks Allen,

I will see if I can find the Midway Pack here at SOH.

I found this link to a 2009 forum conversation (http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?13820-af_ijn_60kg_bomb) between Optix and Pen32Win- same issue.

Pen32Win suggests swapping the af_ijn_60kg_bomb call-out for a stock 60k bomb call-out.

I'm guessing this would be done by editing the aircraft's dp file? I think I have a dp file editor kick around someplace.

Chris,

The first two are free. Tell your friends...:biggrin-new:

Thanks Rami,

Unfortunately, after unzipping and exploring, the dp for the af_ijn_60kg_bomb does not seem to be included in this pack. :apologetic:

According to the thread I linked to above Pen32Win had created the bomb and its dp for used with CrashAZ's PHP2. Sometime later, before CrashAZ had released PHP2, Pin32Win had created this A6M2_Zero_Green for some other project he was working on and accidentally left in it the dp calling out the unavailable af_ijn_60kg_bomb before it was released by CrashAZ with PHP2.

Did CrashAZ ever release PHP2?

No matter really. I can always put A6M2_Zero_Green in the hanger for a while.

Are you folks dug out from under all that snow yet?!

Bit of a plug for Allens JAP bombs

No 60kg, but there is an Army & a Navy 50kg bomb, & all are nicely sized & not oversized IMHO.

To amend a dp file you just need to open with Notepad, make your changes & save as a dp file (not a txt file type). Easier for those already using 64 bit systems where DPEDIT won't work.

Anyway, most aircraft models don't show up in DPEDIT these days, so it's all trial & error with finding the correct x,y,z coordinates...:stupid:

UncleTgt,

Thanks. I installed Allens JAP bombs, made the edit to the dp file in NotePad and all is well!

Cheers,

My Ja bombs sizes are taken from US manuals done after the war (1950's). The texture are basic but work well.
