VSN Pilots change??

Okay guys and gals, I'm thrashing about with the VSN Tornado GR4, and notice that on ejection, post mission shutdown, the pilots are Russian fighter pilots, how would I go about changing these to American USAF/USN pilots?

Somewhere in your main LUA (in this case would be VSN_Tornado whatever .lua) you will have ejection_seat+_name, just change that variable. There is also a tutorial on how to do this in the BGDAM in which I urgly recommend to read. :thumbup:

But do you know what name to use in that variable? Mind linking me the section in the BGDAM is talks about ejection seats as I'm interested in doing this for my project.

Cheers.

PlaneConst.lua

crew_members = 
       {
           [1] = 
           {
               ejection_seat_name    =    58,-- F-15C
               pilot_name            =     19,-- F-15C
               drop_canopy_name    =    22,-- F-15C
               pos =     {6.277,    1.198,    0},
           }, -- end of [1]
       }, -- end of crew_members

Cheers, you know the name they use for the US pilots?

Instead of number, you can use the shape name directly:

ejection_seat_name = "pilot_f15_00_seat.edm", -- ACES II

pilot_name = "pilot_f15_00.edm", -- F-15 pilot

drop_parachute_name = "pilot_f15_parachute.edm"

good informations!

... But I believe that requires you doing to do the line: dofile(current_mod_path .. "/Shapes") or along those lines in the main LUA file where the plane is called as a new aircraft for it to take effect.

This action is required for user-made shapes only.

All ED models (from Bazar/Shapes folder) will be loaded without any additional calls.

Works a treat Looks better, now all they need to do is fix all the things the last update broke!!

Not trying to run over you on this, but aren't you working on the Komet? If so, I believe that would require it's own pilot model and such, it also has no ejection seat. Just in case you didn't know, good luck. :thumbup:

I know about own pilot, was interested in what the name was only.
