CFS2 DP files will not let me drop bombs!

Postby Firebar » Sat Mar 03, 2007 7:51 am

I recently put up another post and got great help so ill try again.

My TSR.2 model now has a DP file, wopee, but the problem is that cfs2 won't let me arm or drop them. my bombs appear on the arming preview very nicely (although i think i got the pylons for them in the wrong place). does any one have any suggestions? the editing program im using is DPEd 121. i can try to provide extra info if it is needed.
All modern aircraft have four dimensions: span, length, height and politics. TSR-2 simply got the first three right.

the model is probably from cfs1. You need to run it through a converter to let it use cfs2 weapons.  Don't know the name of it, but you will almost surely find it somewhere in the SimV downloads. ;D

If your plane is from CFS1 you will need this already or converted pack Allied Planes Europe Expansion Pack Plane Version 1 By C.A.Simpson. 3MB at http://www.simviation.com/cfs2aircraft1.htm  .



Good luck!

SDK: The MDL Converter Tool is what you need. You can find it in the CFS2 Utilities section on the main SimV website. Works well and easy to use.
