ACDATA File Decoder Wanted
-
Even if there was one (which does not), I would say its not your business to mess around with these, or your neck might heart…
-
I just happen to have some flight manuals for some versions of an aircraft and if there was an opportunity to fine tune some items for more accuracy, why not. OH well….

Hi!
Please share info … maybe we can set the default files in a better way for the future rather than messing it yourself.
opportunity to fine tune some items for more accuracy
Do you have an example ?
-
I happen to have the flight manuals for the majority of the F-111 variants. I have built a sim around the F-111 and Falcon 4 BMS and if you could assist me, I would be happy to share.

What values/info do you want to add/change ?

The way the speed brakes and landing gear extension processes are not as I expect. I can deploy the speedbrake in cruise but cant seem to retract them. On approach, I seem to be able to extend them but not retract (they seem to auto retract on the ground). The landing gear extension seems a little curios as it appears it will only extend at a certain speed/configuration. I’m hoping the ACDATA file will shed some light on these items. Also, the wing sweep is automated, I wanted to see it there was a way to disable this feature and manually control the sweep the same way flaps and slats are extended or retraced. Thank you for your help !!! FJP

Not saying I can help. In fact , I this is maybe hard coded. As soon as I have some time, I will try to take a look … on your side you might take a look and see anything that could be tied to air-brakes.

Try to play with:
airbrakeMaxAngle
airbrakeOutRateFactor
airbrakeInRateFactor
airbrakeApproachAngle… and see what you can do.

THANK YOU !!!

No wonder, …
I had a quick look at the F-111 and it’s AC.dat and I have sadly you tell you
that the actually F-111 is an really old and not up to date low poly model.The landing gear AND the speedbrake ain’t even DOF animated,
but are both linked to Switch #2 (left gear)Also for those who know, the AC.dat says “isComplex 0”.
IMHO your only hope atm. could be “CCC”.
He might have a better animated F-111 for replacement.
