Weapons for FSX does not seem to work on the Realair Spitfire although the Spitfire is shown as "armed" in FSX Sim objects.

Sorry for late reply Mark, been on hols. Yes I have Accu-Sim which I uninstalled to see if that made any difference however weapons still doesn't work on the WOP  or the real air Spitfire.

I have the A2A WoP3 Spitfire with Accu-Sim almost done. It wasn't all that hard. I was having some bad pain back when I first replied to you post, so I guess I could not concentrate properly (or for long periods) on it. I did this last night (Aussie time) and tested it quite a bit and it works. One major difference is that I removed all the weapons, except the SSPU-30 and the Hydra 70. I chose them because they are. in my opinion, more suited to the era of the Spitfire. I just need to align the gins to the gun ports on the wings and it will be done.

I shall upload it to the Captain Sim mods (Free Liveries) for Weapon for FSX. I shall have provide instructions with it. I'll let you know once it is uploaded and approved.

EDIT May 21^st, 2012 at 10:34pm: I uploaded the mod to Captain Sim a while ago. It'll be available once it gets approved. I also chose to add an extra gun in the modded CSWeapon.xml. It comes with 4 x M60C 7.62mm machine guns, 2 x GSh-30-1 30mm cannons and 4 x 30 (120) Hydra 70 rockets. There is a choice of unlimited ammo, or normal. I also included the CSWeapon.xml that the Loader puts there with the choice of unlimited ammo or normal. The ReadMe!.txt has all the info and instructions in it.

Thanks Colin.

Just so you know, it isn't back pain. I suffer from severe chronic pain due to a motorbike accident in 1982. As for the cold. I prefer the cold to the  heat. The pain causes me to sweat profusely in cold weather, so imagine what it get's like in the Summer heat.

Edited:


I hope you like it.

All that I have done is modified the panel.cfg, that Weapon for FSX created for the WoP3 Spitfire but does not work. I have also modified the CSWeapon.xml so that the guns and rockets are align with the gun positions on the wings AND so that they fire towards the centre of the gun site.

I have included 4 CSWeapon.xml files. Two are aligned with the wing guns and only have machine guns and rockets with one set to unlimited ammo.
The other two use all the available weapons, that are installed with Weapon for FSX v1.0. They are NOT aligned with the gun positions, and one is set to unlimited ammo.

One more question Mark about your WoP3 Spitfire mod :

is the panel.csweapon.cfg file located in the panel.csweapon folder used somewhere in your mod ?

in other words should I keep it or not ?

Hi and thanks Mark,

... but I was talking about the panel.csweapon.cfg (not the panel.cfg). Both of them are located in the panel.csweapon folder of your mod

does it matter to keep (or not) the panel.csweapon.cfg ?
