Changing SOM Module Aircraft

[wickedstigma 10]

Hi everyone! I am making a mission where you can call in close air support (CAS) with SOM Module. The thing is that as default, what comes as support is 2 A-10's and as you might know this are not the only aircraft used for this. I want to substitute them for 2 Apache's. I've seen this code for the "transport" support but that code doesnt work for the CAS. Thanks for all your help and hope I finish learning the different things to make my first Single or Coop Mission.:bounce3:

i too would like to know the answer to this question too, because it looks stupid seeing the US army have F-35B in support, instead of a F-16 or F-15. even though their air force.

Yes, that is so wrong. Anyway, I was planning to make a code to simulate different tactics with the Apaches. I am reading a book called "APACHE: INSIDE THE COCKPIT OF THE WORLDS MOST DEADLIEST FIGHTING MACHINE" By Ed Macy, and he discribes some of the tactics he used in combat in Afghanistan, plus I have some documentries and other books that describes some of this things too. I dont know how hard is to make it, if possible that is, but I think it will be something similar to the UAV flight pattern. Dont get me wrong I mean the programming not the actual flight pattern of the UAV.

Use Mando Missiles. Besides the fact it's epic, it's extremely flexible.

Ok, I've checked the Drapers air support but for some reason I can make it run. I followed the instructions and I cant make it work.

Mando Missile is Incredible! Thanks, Y never thought it was that good. But I cant use the Mando Air Support Console maybe becuase I dont know how to gain acces to it. Been looking around and I saw the only video in youtube that talks about it and he appears to have it in the menu. Any help?

There's Draper's Air Support Script thread, probably better to ask him ;)

thanks, ill try to send him a message or create another thread of how to use damn scripts. As I said, I cant run anything inside a script.
