Requests/Issues

Hi there, Quick message from me to let everybody be aware of the following principles in adding platforms to the HUD4: -Platform inclusion will depend on time I can dedicate to database edition -From above come the following: the less time I spend in researches, the more platforms I can add at once. -Reality has been the keyword of HUD since the beginning, HUD4 makes no derogation to the principle. If for reason of missing data I can't add a platform, it will be merely refused or delayed if I'm convinced there will be such platform in Harpoon Master Annexes in a "near" future. -Some database integrate scores of platforms at once, but at a cost: realism. To request…

Platform addition for HUD4 v1.0 are now closed. All requests will now be incorporated to HUD4 v1.1 and sequel. Thanks for attention and involvement. Special credits given to Mark Gellis for testing the DB and bug reporting. FG

ANW 3.10.1 HUD3 1.6.3 I would like the Super Tomcat-21 added to the HUD4 along the lines of the "Tomcat 21" section at http://www.topedge.com/alley/text/other/tomcat21.htm Service years should be 1990 - 2025 Missile loadouts to include AIM-152 AAAM per http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/sys...itions/aaam.htm I would like to use this platform in a scenario pitting the actually built F-14 against a prolonged Cold War alternate universe F-14 Tomcat 21. Thank you!

H3 3.11.1.0 HUD-4 1.1 From the error logs: I don't have much more information than that for the time being. Anyone ran into this? I'd like to include this database work.

Can anyone tell me where I can get a copy of HUD4? I just got back into Harpoon last year, got the ultimate edition, and found this site to see what the status of the game was. I started noticing references to mines and mine hunting that, as a mine sweep sailor really peaked my interest. I know it's not included in HUD3 or ANW, at least I haven't seen it so I would enjoy seeing how it plays out in a Harpoon like setting. Thanks in advance!

Had these problems awhile ago and it did not seem to get fixed... AGM-158A JASSM AGM-158B JASSM-ER Regardless of platform, the 'Attack Dialogue Window' comes up with 'Weapon cannot acquire target'. AGM-154A/B/C AGM-130 A/B/C Regardless of platform, the weapon does not consistently engage targets, i.e., cannot manually release weapon even when well within range yet if A/C is used during a mission, the weapon will inconsistently release. Thanks, Steve

Pilatus PC-7 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilatus_PC-7 "The Pilatus PC-7 Turbo Trainer is a low-wing tandem-seat training aircraft, manufactured by Pilatus Aircraft of Switzerland. The aircraft is capable of all basic training functions including aerobatics, instrument, tactical and night flying. It has been selected by more than 20 air forces as their ab initio trainer. Since the aircraft's introduction in 1978, close to 500 have been sold, with the majority still in service. Over one million hours have been flown by PC-7s worldwide." Although primarily a trainer, this aircraft is used for light attack/COIN missions by some air forces. ANW HUD-4 v1.2

A larger development, the BAe ATP, attempted to compete with the de Havilland Canada Dash 8 but saw a limited production run." --Wikipedia Another medium transport used by many different air forces and airlines.

A few minor issues that should be fixed when possible... BCVN North Carolina (both versions) <-- the text appearing is for another hypothetical class, the BCGN Alaska. I don't know if an actual description for this fictional class is available, so it may have to be changed to "Descriptive text is not available." DDGH Kimmel Flight III <-- For some reason, the text for the 550 Cavour appears. This can be changed to the text for the Flight II Kimmel: "Fictional platform. Improved version of the Kimmel destroyer class." F 100 Grenade [Type 25] [#] <-- the text appearing is for the 365 KRI Diponegoro; it appears to be a fictional European frigate clas…

Just a few more ideas (again, designed so they can be done simply, using existing platforms but adding new names so Victory Conditions can be set more easily)... STRC - Desalination Plant Use: STRC - Factory Description: A facility for converting seawater into fresh water. STRC - Dam Use: STRC - Factory Description: A large dam used to create a reservoir.

Another building suggestion, again with the existing database "equivalent" suggested. BLDG - Water Tower Use: BLDG - Small Description: A water storage facility. ANW HUD-4 v1.2

Despite its age, the T-33 remains in service worldwide." --Wikipedia The F-80 is already in the database, but I was not sure if the AT-33 should be added or not.
