western, the previous post by Stainless is not a bug, but his earlier post about the fuel tanks oriented wrong, probably is.
it will help if he tells us which loadout exactly that happens with....

[Stainless]

I'm not sure. I extracted the F_4B.java file and it had no method for moveGear.

So I added my own.

Looks lovely in landing configuration.

[Stainless]

The code I extracted for the loadouts included this section, which is the loadout I was testing.

Code: [Select]

/* 2571 */       str = "B1:2xAGM12C+4xAIM7E+2xDT_P3";
/* 2572 */       arrayOf_WeaponSlot = new Aircraft._WeaponSlot[i];

/* 2575 */       arrayOf_WeaponSlot[2] = null;

Ahhh the gear thing was my bad.

I didn't realise that their was a base class F_4 that does include the moveGear method. Sorry about that.

The Off angled Fuel Tanks has been fixed I thought, somewhere in S3's Phantom Thread.

https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php?topic=21682.msg309981#msg309981 then read on to the other post's

Question: Does radar function in any way on these ships? I mean, can I use it to search, lock-on, etc? Do I have to maintain a facing on the target after I fire an AIM-7?

Great mod though!

And now a really noob-ish question -- is this thing supposed to be so hard to fly? My gosh, I find myself nosing toward the ground every other minute, or my nose wandering all over the place when I try to turn. Is it me? My joystick? What?

F-4 radar is not implemented yet. IL2 AIM-7 is fire and forget missile like AIM-9, not need tracking like real AIM-7. Perhaps people of SAS develop a new AIM-7

Strikers Fighters AIM-7 launch example:

Yes I think that really would be needed. We already have a radar guided missile, the Alcali, that means it's possible.

I understand (though I haven't yet tried it), that the MiG-21 3rd-gen has operational radar. Don't get me wrong, the work put into this mod is substantial and appreciated -- I've been BVR'ing Tu-Bulls for practice. But in a real F-4, you would have a ladder HUD, and the Hud would show you the location of the locked-on target, and your radar would tell you how many targets there were (in IL2, you can use the map for this). I tend to think that the basic IL2 engine, right now, can't really deal with radar missiles. Put I love those AIM-9 armed F-86's!

Nothing said here is meant to denigrate or disparage the work done by the modders!

[spitfire-MKIX]

Does anyone has noticed this glitch? When flying at low speed and altitude with gear and flaps extended, the plane can randomly roll left or right as if I'd pushed the stick.
