Title: FSX@War & CS Weapon for FSX
Post by Xpel on Sep 12^th, 2014 at 12:18pm

FSX@War project & CS Weapon for FSX

Probably you may have heard of FSX@War project. Started 2-3 years ago
with the purpose to "bring battlefield in FSX"... In few words, is an addon programm
running the same time with FSX and through an editor you can place various simobjects
serving as targets, anywhere in the 3D world of FSX... Now, it's close to Release date,
currently being closed beta tested...

It happens to be a beta tester myself (as CS Weapon user - CS Weapon eventually it will be supported !...) in this project and here after you may see 2 videos of the Convoy (& Carrier) Planner utility meant to run with FSX@War addon.

CCP adds 1 or more vehicle convoys (customizable type of vehicles & their speed) moving at a premade road network for any specific Area of Operations by just defining the start & end point for each convoy... Same thing for Carrier & ships shortly. Since the above video is blocked in Germany
due to a song it uses, here are some more.

Good news! nice videos.
I have also the other weapons pack but I love CSWeapon much better, because can be added easy for any aircraft, also can modified guns and explosions without restrictions!
But hope Captain Sim update it to become able to shoot down ships and vessels in free-flight. Also it be awesome if there any condition to have torpedos

Thank you for all this Xpel. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

One day I will have to take the time to watch the videos. I have peeked at them (for a minute or so) and they really look interesting and fantastic. Every time I read this forum, I know I need to take the time to watch them, but then I forget about them (especially if I'm helping with the other CS Aircraft). I promise I will get there eventually.

In the mean time, please keep us informed on how it's all going.

Hi Markoz !
Of course you have no obligation of seeing all these videos !... �:)

Things are going very well & at least for "Convoy & Carrier Planner" utility,
the day of release is very close. It has been tested for spawning ship convoys
also & all seem to work fine :

Spawning ship convoy (with customized route) in Free flight :

At the time, I wait for the team to show me how I'll be able to integrate CS Weapons in
FSX@War, as to start tests with'em... Free falling bombs (the way you can drop'em with
free weapon pack4 style) works already really great ! This is achievable by any FSX user...

You can also buy the TAC PACK , I have it and goes great

It doesnot run in FSX Missions, practically just for one plane (F-18) as things are right now, too expensive.
If you're going to fly just F-18 and in online multiplayer, yes, it's the way to go...
If you're not a F-18 driver, flying mostly offline (as myself), CS Weapon is the way to go.
I also happen to know that some F-18 online squadrons use also CS Weapon for the ability to have other flying machines weapon capable apart of F-18.

So, what fits everybody depends on what he is up to...

If you really want to simulate all systems: super hornet and TAK PACK

My understanding is that TAC PACK can only be used if it is installed in an airplane by the developer, and not by users. Is that correct?

That's my understanding too. So I think you're correct.

Yes, this is correct.

Yes sure, speaking in general. But personally I don't care about systems simulation, not even
care about knowing how to operate them... I only care about flight simulation & driving the plane.
On the other hand I need basic info about the AIs flying at the area.
So, I don't fall in the category you describe.

Me too,
for this reason i don't want to have VRSF-18 and also i abandoned BearStuduios Flankers, and i consider the SCWeapon as a best FSX add-on �:D
