Footmunch/eddyD F-16 in ArmA 2

[ravendk 25]

First off VERY nice plane. Im very happy fooling arround with this baby.

Will there be a two seater version in the future?

[gossamersolid 155]

I love this addon Myke, thanks a lot for porting it to ARmA 2.

I was wondering how would I disable the automatic flare system? I use mando missile mod so I've prefer to use the manual deploy flares from that.

Sadly in this version you can't disable it completely. This will be possible in the update (don't hold breath on it, i'm working on it but it takes time).

However, you can set remaining flares to 0 so it will not drop flare and therefor not spoof missiles. Audio and chat warning remains.

this setVariable ["FlareCount", 0];

This "should" disable it if i'm not completely wrong. Hope this helps.

GossamerS, you might also try the following:

Create an script named f16_no_flares.sqf with the following content:

// A trick to disable Myke's F16s autoflares
Sleep 4;
(_this select 0) setVariable ["FlareActive", true];

Then, in the init fields of your F16s put:

res = [this] execVM "f16_no_flares.sqf"

Thanks, will try this out later tonight!

Thanks Mandoble this will work great when using your stuff, I thought I remember reading the updated version of the F16 will allow you to select Mando or RKSL, could be mistaken.

You have it right. Basically it will have a countermeasure system included but if it detects MMA or the RKSL system, it will disable the built-in and use those instead. This happens automatically but there will be the option to select manually (well, missionmaker can select) or even disable it completely.

Was just wondering what happened to the two seater and the console startups. Are these still being worked on?

[ACPL Jon 68]

and what happened to it? (new version)

[[frl]myke 14]

they are being worked on. Bad thing is, there are several other projects on which the new version will rely on, so i have to finish those other projects first before i can finally finish the F-16.

About the future of the two-seater i'm unsure. The real 2-seater is for training only. I don't know how much sense this would make in a game.

[wolfbite 8]

Thanks for the update mate. Just was using this baby last night and thought about that vid..... Thanks man and good luck

Any chance we will see some of your other aircraft make the change over to Arma2?

What "other Aircraft"? I've only ported the F-16 to ArmA 2, nothing else.

[Spartan 163 0]

Lol my mistake. I thought you were doing more of Footmunch/eddyD work.

[quicksilver67 10]

This is posted simply to encourage Myke to continue doing whatever mysterious and essential projects occur to his mind. We'll see them when they're done, and we'll be amazed.

killed = "_this execVM "\glt_f16\scr\wrecker.sqf"";

The wreck still work and now can be lift with the wreck chopper.

You must also add the glt to the reward array:

ej: ["A10","AH1Z","UH1Y","AV8B","AV8B2", "F35B", "M1A2_TUSK_MG","M1A1","GLT_Falcon_AGM"]

Well I cant seem to do this. When I unpack the config I get a config.hpp. When I try to pack it back I get all kinds of errors and the pbo doesnt work. Its a bit over my head. I was using unRap to unrap it and BinPBO to pack it back up. Im not to sure how to use teh BinPBO though

Small update for Operation Arrowhead

- [changed] removed internal countermeasures and uses OA's instead

- [added] HUD now uses OA settings

- [changed] formations are now tighter

- [changed] flarelauncher has only burst mode

- [changed] flarelauncher fires 8 rounds instead of 5 now

- [changed] flare interval reduced from 1 second to 0.333 seconds

- [improved] radar range increased

So nothing groundbreaking (sadly) but still working on it. One important milestone was to finish the Missilebox which has been released aswell:

http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=76268

So this update requires OA, GLT-F16 (of course) and the Missilebox.

It will work with the old Missilebox aswell so this doesn't need to be updated if you don't want to but nonetheless i do recommend it.
