Thanks, Sal

But who will fly the C-130 while you are busy with the side guns? 

Granted you are alone the Weapon is more like figher-pilot experience.

Then all you need is to set desired side view angle for the weapon panels (3 of them) in panel.cfg

Hi Sal.

I 'll take a look and work out how to do it.

Thanks Markoz. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Sorry guys, I've forgot to mention re-setup of the CSWeapon.xml. The Weapon won't work to the side. All stores positions are calculated from the long axis.

Hi Alex.

I need clarification on a few things please.

(1) <!-- Station position (x,y,z) meters, angle of incidence, ammo units quantity --> this lines gives details for six (6) areas
     <Station name="Nose" params="0,9,0,0,-0.039,0,1200" /> This has numbers for seven (7) areas. What is the extra one for? And which one is the extra one?

(2) <Station name="Nose" params="0,9,0,0,-0.039,0,1200" /> Is the one in red the angle that the guns are pointing? If it is. Does 270 = left (as in 0 = north = forward and so 270 = west = left of forward)

(3) I changed the angle for the AC130 to 90, saved it, started FSX and the guns were still shooting forward. Do I need to make it "aircraft dependent" in here: <!-- aircraft dependent weapon settings -->. If I do, how do I do that? My understanding is that the line is commented out by the <!-- and not read by the CSWeapon.dll gauge, or do I have that wrong too.

Thanks in advance

Mark

0,9,0 - position
0,-0.039,0 - angles
1200 - units
Thanks Alex. That makes all the difference!

Everythig between <!--  --> is just a comment.
I thought that was the what <!--  --> meant.

And there are no north or south, everything is in LOCAL aircraft frame of reference.
I might not have explained it well enough. But it doesn't matter any more.

Hope that helps.
Yes it does. I'll be able to sort out the guns for the AC130 now!
