Any chance you can explain more on the types of missles, bombs and fuel from the readme?

The names of the weapons use the international designations. ACES_AIM9L for example is the Aim-9 Sidewinder L variant.

Check out this link from wikipedia to receive information about the different weapons: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_missiles

Most of the weapons are configured only very basically, if anyone wants to work on that I appreciate it. Other than that I won't continue work on ACES for OFP.

Thanks for releasing this Hardrock. It's pretty damn good deaspite being unfinished.

Loading it up with 228 Hydra rockets is a lot of fun. biggrin_o.gif

I can't drop bombs from it though. Is this one of the bugs that need fixing or are there some special requirements to allow bombing runs: altitude, laser designator etc?

Same here... No bomb drops.

This may help people as I have tried to stay true as possible to RAF loadouts.

EDIT: See newer post.

Tankie - The closest current match to Storm Shadow in ACES is probably the AIM154.

HR - Good to see the EF (finally smile_o.gif )

Thanks FM I will update my post. ACES_AGM154A, ACES_AGM154B or ACES_AGM154C ?

I think the AGM-154C's most like Storm Shadow, both are for attacking hardened targets IIRC. A and B carry sub-munitions.

btw, "BWMOD_FUEL" doesn't work, it should be "BWMOD_EF_FUEL"

Finally. smile_o.gif

I'll say. This has to be a single addon with the longest development time in the history of OFP. Prior to it's release I considered it on par with duke nukem forever. Regardles, good job and thanks for the release... finally. smile_o.gif

Can you tell us as to what in ACES has been updated please.

Is anyone working to finish the Typhoon?

Any news of a RAF skin?

Thanks, of course it should be BWMOD_EF_FUEL and not BWMOD_FUEL! crazy_o.gif

@tankieboy: Your script calls can't be quite correct, since the fuel tanks will be mounted on the 4 inner slots. Here's a more accurate drawing of how the slots are filled:

I hope it is clearer now.

Thanks mate.

I have changed the Air Interdiction version to;

[this, "ACES_AIM120", "ACES_FUEL340", "ACES_AGM154C", "ACES_ALARM", "ACES_AIM9L"] exec "\aces\scr\aces_payload.sqs"

I have no real idea as you can see of how its laid out IRL, just a guess.

@kikill, any plans to add Storm Shadow, Paveway II Laser Guided Bomb, Paveway III Laser Guided Bomb, Cluster Bombs

BL755/IBL755/RBL755 to ACES? [Maybe I have missed them by name in the list.]

Anyone know what the RAF Typhoon loadout for Counter-Air (CA), better described by it's more common title of 'Air Defense' is?

The typical position of fuel tanks is slot 3, I suggest to use BWMOD_EF_FUEL there as it fits perfectly.

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">[this, "ACES_AIM120", "ACES_AGM154C", "BWMOD_EF_FUEL", "ACES_ALARM", "ACES_AIM9L"] exec "\aces\scr\aces_payload.sqs"

would be it then.

eurofighter.com quotes the Air Superiority loadout as

6 x BVRAAM

6 x ASRAAM

2 x 1500 litre fuel tank

1 x 1000 litre fuel tank

as.gif

[this, "ACES_METEOR", "ACES_METEOR", "BWMOD_EF_FUEL", "ACES_AIM132x2", "ACES_AIM132"] exec "\aces\scr\aces_payload.sqs"

Though Meteor isn't currently in service, so I'd go for MRAAMs rather than BVRAAMs (i.e "ACES_AIM120" rather than "ACES_METEOR").

Try using "BWMOD_EF_FUEL" instead of "ACES_FUEL340" on the other loadouts too mate. It's a Eurofighter specific tank rather than the generic one; looks better.

Have a gander at http://www.eurofighter.com/Typhoon/SwingRole/ "Mission Configuration" for various suggested loadouts too. Though they don't appear to be nation specific.

You have to place a normal logic and give it the name "ACES_LOGIC".
