Pilot model fo F-16
-
Hi cobrabase, I have the exact same thing.
When I try this in Balkans I lose the HUD and only see the pilot upper body when replacing the model (as per the instruction) with the ‘loaded’ LOD. I have to revert to fix that.
I did get it work in Korea as per the instructions by Burners (all three: TvT/Strong/KTO) and in different blocks (check cockpithud parent numbers).
I have no fix, but I’ll be monitoring this thread in case someone has one. And offcourse thanks Harpoon for a fabulous mod -
How to do for KTO.
Download the Harpoon’s pilot/legs using this link:
Open Lod Editor for KTO.
Enter a 4 and click Normal
Click the button that says replace mode until it says Replace Mode then click the 1

Select the 4.lod file you downloaded:

Then enter 150 in nDOF and click Update on the top right. Then you are done and can test.

Looks like this when done right
http://e4myjob.com/x324/f5.pngGo fly and you’ll have it in your cockpit. It actually should be in the cockpit of most jets not just 50/52 with the exception of maybe the block 40 or D models. I haven’t checked all the F-16s that use the HUD parent 4 in KTO. Also, note, if you need to change theaters after installing to test it in KTO, make sure you restart BMS or else you will think you messed something up when you didn’t.
I’ve tried this LOD following Burnertactical’s instructions and while I get the legs in the cockpit I lose my hud in 4.33. Anyone else having this problem? Answers? Ideas?

That did the trick, many thanks! I really like (and need) those kneeboards Also learnt something more about the LOD editor, so that’s two birds in one stone.
Thanks again,

File do not exist Megaupload says. Dema can you please reupload it again?

I’ve just got back to try 4.33U1 and I’m a little bit rusty in using LE. I’ve managed to get it work for all other models according to the latest instructions except for block 40. Can someone more experienced write down quick instructions to get the body/legs to show up also in blk 40’s?
Thanks in advance.
-
OK, I’ve got it. I’ve just used 3091 reference then click on Normal button. Seems to work.
-
I’ve just realized that HUD glass (or reflection) is bit different with blk 40 so this is now rounded up. Still looks great however, it would be nice if someone would made correct body+legs+glass .lod for block 40.
-
You got it to work in 4.33 U1!!! How?! I followed Burner’s instructions to the letter and could not get it to work. Advice?
-
This is the instruction I’ve used. For block 40, instead of parent no. 4 on the beginning I’ve used 3091 which should be the parent no. for block 40. Only thing that someone who has better skills in LE should do is to make body/legs to have block 40 style HUD projector glass in front of it instead of the current block 50 style and share the .lod file so we can completely round up the conversion of the mod for the 4.33U1.

@mirage3000 The Block 40/42 are my faves. (Flir capable US Blocks) Good news about the Hud Projector Glass project. Gizemkar has posted some stunning work for these blocks in his thread. https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?20672-HUD-Projector-Glass/page3
Thank you for finding a solution for the pilot model for this block! You’re awesome

Hi warriorF,
the link that you’ve provided is related to the HUD projector glass however I’m talking about the HUD glass itself (onto which is projected). The issue is that the glass is of a different shape than on the blk 50’s so someone who has better skills should combine the blk 40 HUD glass with the pilot so we would have untouched HUD glass that is already provided in the 4.33U1 version alongside with the pilot model. With currently provided .lod files it is only possible to have pilot with blk 50 HUD glass style attached to the blk 40 cockpit. The specific blk 40 frame is there, however the glass is different if you look closer. It would be really nice if someone can make complete .lod file specially made for blk 40 and share it with us.
-
I personally consider this one of the best mods for Falcon, especially because of the kneeboard/weapon planner compatibilty and I just hope that also because of the popularity of the blk 40 model in the community, someone can merge the pilot model to the blk 40 glass and share the .lod file with the rest of us.

You want the block 40 hud in its entirety stuck on block 50?, or just the glass?, or the tint?, sorry bit pie eyed and not quite sure what you mean?:p, can’t understand why you would want block 40 hud on block 50? Lol!

IRL the WAR HUD is indeed a purchase option for Block 50/52/52+ aircraft. Some of the RSAF F-16D-52+ birds have them installed as seen in these pics.

Don’t like the block 40 HUDs … never have.

Cool story bro.
Thanks, I know you mean that sincerely.
Let’s meet at FL200 in our virtual Vipers and settle this like men.

In fact, it was sincere and genuine since you’re one of the only people I’ve ever “met” that isn’t head over heels for the WAR HUD.

I thought you were a Hornet guy?
Anyway, how about that pilot model for the F-16 and sticking it in the block 40 pit in 4.33U1?
