Using Harms with the F-18
-
Hello all,
I’d like to be able to employ the HARM a little more effectively with the F-18. I know the F-16 requires the HTS, but how about the F-18? Is there a specific pod for the F-18? Should I just get used to using HAS mode?
Thanks for the help
-
POS mode is king, HAS is for AGM-45 Shrike type deliveries which is possible and desirable in some situations.
-
Also, in the manual, it is written that the HTS pod automatically equip itself whenever you put a HARM, to me it doesn’t is the hts limited to certain model only ?

No HTS for the F/A-18, iirc. Not sure about other AC models/blocks.

I meant certain f-16 model sorry

Yes, HTS is limited to certain F-16 models (less than half). Manual has a better list.

Definetly learn to use the HAS mode and POS mode.
Im currently using ALARMs in the Tornado the same way.

Look in the aircraft .dat file. Edit the line: HasHTS 0 to HasHTS 1
#–---------------------------------------------------
HTS

Has_HTS 0 <-CHANGE THIS TO 1
Has_OnboardHTS 0

#Switch: 0 - none, 1 - left, 2 - right
HTS_PodPowerSwitch 1
HTS_PodPosX 11.28
HTS_PodPosY -1.84
HTS_PodPosZ 2.84

Hm … is it REALLY necessary to cover personal shortcomings by tweaking (IMO cheating) the simulator? Or wouldn’t it be better to learn a bit to remove that diablity?
BTW: that will minimize your chances to connect to Multiplayer servers.

Tweaking the ACdata = Banned from MP sessions.:wfish:

Exactly.
set g_bRequireSameAcdataMP 1

So in case I just modify my top gun camera view…? I have to make backup…
Hmmmm. Good point. I’ve modified it for your situation:
set g_bRequireSameAcdataMPExceptWhenMolniModifiesHisTopGunViews 1

That case in a PVP environment you cant use external views so its pointless.

I know but I configure for SP. So just because of I do something for SP I have to make backup because MP.
