How do I refuel in-flight? I've formed up on the KC, press up arrow, fuel gauge isn't going up...

Maybe the Controls are not set the way we think they are. Look in your Control file to see what runs your thrust vector. We set them to use the arrow and suggest you do also but the Default controls are different.

I'm using the YAP config, it shows THRUST_VECTOR_UP=UPARROW - ditto in-game. It appears to be a toggle - am I supposed to hold down the key?

[I've tried remapping to a different key with no luck.]

thanks

If you have been into your OPTIONS in game and CONTROLS then your re-fuel mod and photo mod are probably erased. Its a quirk of the game. You simply have to reenter the info into your CONTROLS data ini. Make sure the following is present.

at the end of your animation section this controls your photo mod:

GOTO_CAMERA_LEFT_VIEW=NUMPAD1
GOTO_CAMERA_RIGHT_VIEW=NUMPAD3
GOTO_CAMERA_DOWN_VIEW=NUMPAD2
GOTO_CAMERA_FRONT_VIEW=NUMPAD5

then the last entry in the datainini this controls your re fuel mod.

[RangedControl009]
AxisControl=PITCH_TRIM_CONTROL
MaxValue=1000.000000
MinValue=0.000000
DeadZone=5.000000
Saturation=75.000000
ReverseJoystick=TRUE
MouseScale=1.000000
UseMouseRate=FALSE
ReverseMouse=FALSE
LimitValue=TRUE
SelfCenterRate=0.000000
KeyControlRate=1.000000
AllowKeyControl=TRUE
IncreaseControl=THRUST_VECTOR_UP
DecreaseControl=THRUST_VECTOR_DOWN
CenterControl=

I made the edit for refueling to my control cfg.. I've been using the YAPcontrols one but had made changes for my set-up. Even after replacing the [RangedControl009] parms it still doesn't seem to be doing anything.

Thanks for your help.

Hallo to all!!!!

I have a question only for my interest:

The refueling system can work fine in SF2V without modify?

I have noticed using the refueling in SF2V as WOV that the system only decrease the fuel quantity,not is possible increase the fuel

quantity, at least I don't know can how to do this.

Toro,

We are not taking Yankee Air Pirate onto SF2V yet. We think the optimum engine is Wings Over Vietnam patched to October 2008. At some later date we might move it there but we see ZERO advantage for us or for the player. Just converting 700 INI files to Oct 2008 has been grueling.

Many of Thirdwire's changes seem to eliminate our modifications without providing anything to the player. Granted, the shadows and aerodynamic drag are real additions to realism, many of the other changes are not.

So...I don't know. Why bother?

Zerocinco,

YAP2 is very beautiful and not is a problem for me if it work fine only with WOV, really.

Another thing: when we can update WOV to Oct '08 ?


Regards.


Toro.

Toro,

Very soon. We are down to the end of the list of changes now. Testing missions for Set 10 and replacing missions in Set 1.
