I don't want to ruin anything again, so I'll have to make sure I make a back up of the .cfg file.

John

The installation is designed around a single B52 in it's own folder and will have no effect on your current CS_B52 folder. Most everything (textures, sound, panel etc.) is aliased back to the master installation but it has it's own aircraft.cfg

Anyway, CS seems to be more concerned about 'Off Topic' posts rather than this and have not contacted me so I have to assume they will be OK with me releasing the package, probably early next week. I'm not going to raise a ticket as it's not a support issue.

@oliveone:- I can understand where your coming and don't actually do much simming myself. Most of my time is spent rehashing/enhancing other peoples work. @barny came up with an idea and I'm just running with it. But in saying that this whole CSWeapons thing is getting boring.

Bruce,

Hope you can provide some instructions on how to use your package when you release it. Anxiously awaiting for it Smiley - Thanks.

Yes instructions have been written in my best '(PNG) Pigeon English' ---- joking!!

@barney has kindly agreed to BETA test the package for me so I’ll await his report and sort any problems he may have encounted including the Readme.txt file.

Sorry for the delay, Barney and I had some initial communication problems so we lost a week and now I'm in transit to QLD on holiday and my 2nd FSX PC located there.

Thus far we have found and fixed a few minor problems and I expect to release next week. I need to test it with the new sound patch as that was one area of concern.

Barney and I have decided it’s time to post the Bomb Release aid for the B25.

There is a sound issue (what a surprise) so I have not included that effect during the bomb drop and will give it a good dose of looking at on my return home to Thailand, neither of us have had the opportunity to test the package with the new sound patch!

To quote Barney:-
Quote:
All I would recommend is that you stress the impotence of reading the instructions in their entirety.

Be warned! Especially the paragraph relating to the adding of your own aircraft texture.

Here is the link to the zipped file:-

Have fun.

By the way, Bruce, I was the one asking for a B1-B Lancer adaptation of your device, but it is a payware from Virtavia, so if you don't have it, don't bother. The bomb bay opens on that model, it is a very good plane.
Thanks,

Johan

With the nuke effects, it works initially, then it goes into a black square and stays. Any help? Sad

Does the Mk82-500 lb bomb effects work OK eg an orange - red explosion followed by a tower of smoke which hangs around for a couple of minutes?

After the initial bright yellow blast the nuke smoke (dark grey) slowly spreads over a couple of Nm with a sort of a mushroom thingy in the middle. It really needs a makeover to give the effect some sort of realism. Try replacing your fx_Nukem.fx file in the effects folder.

Bruce,

The Mk82-500 lb bomb effects work OK. For the nuke effect, I have the same problem than Pete. It starts well and then become a huge black square with none of the smoke effects you are mentioning...

I had the same problem you are mentioning with the nuke effect (prior to installing the bomb comp), to fix it i downloaded a freeware TU-95 from norcal prop club and used the nuke effect from that. This changed the solid black square into a smokey black square.

                                                                                                Regards Barney.
