Could anyone give me a quick guide to restricting loadouts

[6./ZG26_Emil]

It's a bit confusing there are 4 sections for loadouts and payloads in the plane settings, there is a dropdown box for weapon mods, then a Payload ID and at the bottom there is a section for available mods and payloads.

 

I guess the one I want is either available mod or available payloads since I was to disable the 2500+1800Kg bomb on the 111 and also the 37mm guns from the Ju87

 

Any help would be appreciated because this is as clear as mud :D

and do I have to tick Lock Weapon Mods for it to be implemented?

Well I restricted the 2500 and 1800 bombs on the 111 and 87 and yet nothing happened....I then figured that you need to tick the lock weapon mods in the Dserver advanced setup but when I do that everything is locked on all planes!!

 

If I tick that box does it mean I have to set every planes available mods?

I think that's how it works.

I think that's how it works.

 

Eugh.......That sounds like a lot of work!

 

You would have thought you would tick the box and be able to deselect a few of the mods etc

 

Thanks for the help though

Here are the options there are 4 of them related to restricting loadouts which seems a bit crazy.

 

Is it just Number 3 I need to change?

 

I assume 1 is to force a mod on the aircraft

2 is.....?

3 restricts the mods than can be taken

4 restricts bomb loads after 3 is taken in to account?

I haven't tried resticting loadouts yet, but I would expect that 1 and 2 are the defaults, and they should be consistent with the constraints in 3 and 4.

[6./ZG26_Emil]

I have it sort of working now and yep I think you're right about 1 and 2

 

So far I can restrict the mods but when I tried to restrict certain payloads it didn't work. I'll leave that for now I just want to make sure we dont have unhistorical stuff or nukes on the He-111 :D

[6./ZG26_Emil]

I just need to say this....

 

On a scale from 1 to VERY ANNOYING

 

It is off the chart

You've already read this post?

That post doesn't make much sense to me.

 

Here is an example of the problem I have

 

109-F2

 

I want to have the gunpods (1) and armoured glass (4) and remove headrest (5)

 

So in Available Mods I type 1/4/5

 

I go in to the mission and the last two are unlocked yet the first one (gunpods) are locked! How does this make any sense at all... 

[6./ZG26_Emil]

I'll read that post again and see if I can decipher it  but as far as I can see I have done it right in Hans example

 

Edit: I might have figured this out....again

When i'm at home i'll try some solutions to evaluate the dark matter of unlocks.            

[Jade_Monkey]

In my short experience in SP missions, 1 and 2 will pre select the loadouts but they can be changed by the user. This might be different in MP

[72sq_Savinio]

Ok. For me work correctly. This is the screenshot of "avaiable loadouts for F2". I apologize for my very poor english which needs time to explain sufficiently (i hope).

So.. if you want closed and fixed Mod loadouts you need to work only with "WeaponsMod" field, because if you set it in "avaiable Mod" fields players can select and deselect the weapon mod we had set. This is the only test i had time to do, in the evening i try to set other loadouts.  

 

[6./ZG26_Emil]

Thanks Savinio I have it working.

 

It is clear I was suffering from a moment of stupidity and saw the unlock of the 20mm nose gun as gunpods as the symbol is the same. 

 

After tearing my hair out for a couple of hours it sank in since I could get all the other ones to work.

Sorry to bump open this old thread but I am trying to do the same, stop players taking too large bombs for a dogfight map I am currently working on.

I have read (and tried to understand) the above and have put against the plane in the available payloads section (for example on a Ju87) "0/1/2/6/9/10/11" however when I go into the game I am being offered the following load outs 1,2,3,7 (which is the big bomb I do not want) and 12
