Urgent - Missing loadout

Post by EAF331_Starfire »

Hi 4Shades

102nd-Yu and EAF are going to head of a major test later today (16 hours from now.)

We just discovered that the Hawker Typhoon 1B and 1B Late only have default loadout.
We are running this from 102nd server, but I double checked this on my own server which, unlike 102nd's, run on the access db. Same problem.

Looking in the "AircraftLoadout" table I can see that the loadout should be there. From earlier experiance I think the issue are due to a misspelling. Any suggestions?

Cheers


EDIT:
Doh :oops: ! I have forgotten to update my profile. My db was 32F. I think 102nd use mssql.

I notice that you are using SEDB32E, which is pretty old. You have two options:

1) Download SEDB32G and extract the latest Typhoon loadouts from the AircraftLoadout table. Hopefully 32G has it right.

OR

2) Simply go to FMB and capture all the loadout options for the Typhoon and put them in your database.

Cheers,

Hi all,

I double checked loadouts spelling in DB - they are identical as in mission file any other ideas why MP would only offer "default" loadout ?

Maybe the flight is planned as a recon flight?

There is a DB bug in SEDB32G and maybe prior versions, but very easy to fix.

In Object_Specifications table, which defines the available object types, the Typhoons are listed as:
TYPHOON1B
TYPHOON1BLate
In AircraftLoadout the available Typhoon loadouts are listed under aircraft names like:
air.TyphoonMkIB
air.TyphoonMkIBLate
The "air." prefix is required in this table. The bug is that the Typhoon aircraft names in AircraftLoadout do not match the Typhoon names in Object_Specifications. A simple edit should fix this. Capitalization is important. The records in AircraftLoadout should use
air.TYPHOON1B
air.TYPHOON1BLate
