Adding planes to carrier (TACEd)

Post by Takz! » 2002-10-22 02:22:00

Hi to all! Well, first, sorry for my very poor english :) And my little question is...
How i can add planes (F14, F18x for example) to the carrier (CVN67) for future flights?
Very thanks!!!

How to make carrier strikes happen in TEs (by Joeri Cools)


1. Make your TE in F4 or start the one you want to add the carrier ops to.
2. In the TE-maker in F4, put the squadrons you want on the carrier on any airfield (remember it !)
3.Leave F4 and start Tacedit (Load your TE)
4.Add a carrier with Tacedit and keep its IDnr and location at close range..
5.Open the Squadrons with Tacedit and change the airbase id to the carriers ID and change their x&y coords to the carriers location. Next save your .tac file
6.restart F4 and TE editor, open your TE (.tac) and choose the add flight button. click near the carrier and the normal menu pops up. Under the squadrons, select the squadrons on your carrier.(it will make the air base window read Xth carrier taskforce).$

Now plan your flights as you normally would,
and dont worry if the TO & landing waypoints say things like 'no airbase present or something, the ac will TO and Land there' (you will not see them launch or recover however, they will appear once in the air)

I tried looking at it and got CTDed, but my sorties launched as planned...

Ok! Thanks a lot!
The planes are now flying from the carrier :)
The only 'mistake' is that meanwhile the carrier is moving, the squadron is stopped in the water (and the planes try to land in water of course)
Thanks again!
