Now, before anyone says anything to me, I KNOW YOU GUYS ARE NOT TOUCHING THE LOADOUTS AND WEAPONS.
This is purely a curious question that i know someone here can answer.
Im not going to lie, i am using josse's weapon mod. And i love it. (wish i knew how to edit the files so i can correct some things...) But, im a respectable and honest man, so i take the mod off when i go online. The mod is for my own offline enjoyment.
What i want to ask/know is.
I know its possible to edit the loadouts. All the new AAA Aircraft have them. But for say the P-51 could we get loadouts with various tracer options.
In WWII. Tracer choosing was sometimes the pilots choice. Some liked alot of tracers, some like only 1 every 20-30 rounds, some liked them on one side in one gun, and some didn't use any!
I know, by using josse's mod that once you change the loadout for one gun. The M2 for example you change all the planes that use it. What i want to know is, Is it possible to create duplicates of the same gun, but with different beltings?
I.e
You choose the P-51B for a bomber escort mission. You do not know what kind of tracer loadout you want, so you look at the loadout options and see this.
5th round tracers
10th Round Tracers, Starboard side only
10th Round Tracers, Port side only
No Tracers
75gal tank + 5th round tracers
75gal tank + 10th Round Tracers, Starboard side only
75gal tank + 10th Round Tracers, Port side only
75gal tank + No Tracers
And so on....
From my limited understanding i assume to do this you need to make new m2 guns. And give them the respective beltings, then have those certain guns put into the p-51 for each loadout choice. One gun has them every 5th round, another gun has them every 20th round, one doesn't have any, etc....
Is this possible to make new guns with different loadouts and put them into the same plane for these choices i described above? That is all i want to know.
Trying to make this easy to understand so here is another example
I choose the P-51B with Tracers in one gun on the right wing.
Guns would be like this from the top. N= No tracers T= Tracers
Hope you guys understand what im trying to convey.
thanks for any replys, and thanks for the great mods. I am in NO WAY putting down the work you guys do, nor am i endorsing FM, DM and Loadout editing. Just a curious mind wanting to know if its possible.
