FMB Glider issues, Any tips? - Dixiecapt - 08.01.2010

I'm working on one of the last mission for my OSS Campaign, which includes Operation Husky!

I wanted to put the british glider attack on syracuse into the mission, but I can't seem to get Gliders to work.

I Have Used Them Before. I am using HSFK 4.1,

I set the C47s first waypoint, set the altitude, set the cargo to empty, Then I set teh C-47s 2nd WP as a ground attack. I then set a G11 glider right behind the C47, set it to altitude, and used the select option to set the gliders 1st WP to the c47s 1st WP.

When i load they aren't attached.

ANy help welcomed, I wanted this mission to be pretty damn immersive. Esspecially since we have moving and shooting infantry now!

Hi Dixiecapt,

Played around with the gliders some time ago and I agree, they are pretty hard to get working right.

I think you have to use more than two waypoints - reason is the glider gets released at the waypoint BEFORE the ground attack waypoint of the tow plane - confused now? I was Confusedhock: The glider needs a separate ground attack waypoint as it's final one.

Put up an old test mission on my server for you to download and have look at.
