Aircraft Weapon Proxy

[nzdfcrash 33]

hey all got a small issue on the f18 where the weapons i assigned dont show up on the pilons until they are fired.

I've set the model weapon proxies up as myke suggests with the aim9x.

Im not too sure why they wont show on the model but heres the config if it helps make sense of the problem.

Also setup the weapons in another pbo which i havent had any issues with when using on other aircraft

[rksl-rock 1300]

hey all got a small issue on the f18 where the weapons i assigned dont show up on the pilons until they are fired...

If you have a plane or helicopter with a gunner/turret all the weapons must be held in the in the turret define. If you add weapons to the 'plane' and not the 'turret' they wont show no matter what you do.

Move the weapons and ammo to the turret and it will work ok.

thanks rock it seemed to fix it.
