Database Design & Discussion

Plane LoadoutsHCCEb13 Weapons of type Gun will not work in loadouts, model as bombs or missiles. [*]Weapons Select the weapon Type before giving entry any other characteristics so that an ID in the proper range is auto-created by the PE. [*]Administrative Archive your pfData file each time you release a new revision of the DB. Don't Import over the top of your master pfData file. It is dangerous if the import fails and can remove logging information you may want later. HarpGamer suggests naming your DB in the format NAME-YYMMDD where NAME is your DB's name of up to 24 characters and YYMMDD is the date of release of this version of the DB.

Here are the modifications i applied to "my" DB (in fact, HCDB-050124 on my HDD). I verified sources, at least, twice, most figures comes from Jane's publications, H4 or real life professionnams working with this plane. U can see the loadouts i designed for my own usage here, feel free to use it They are based from real life rafale's validation videos, pilots indications and Jane's publications. I used the rule i exposed on this forum (loadout multipliers) to match as close as possible the effects on range and DATA that specific loadouts can have. http://ibelgique.ifrance.com/jansfiles/har..._C_loadouts.htm http://ibelgique.ifrance.com/jansfiles/har.…

Soko IAR-93 (similar to the Super Galeb, but the Super Galeb is listed as an attack range of about 700 miles and a Ferry range of roughly 1000 miles; the IAR-93 only has a attack range of about 500 miles) https://harpgamer.com/harpforum/hc_platform_requests/aircraft/?do=form&d=2 View full record

Here are the facts: I learned just yesterday that refuel pods are just an interface, between the "tanker" and the "client", that allow to ransfer the fuel contained in the tanker fuel tanks to the client. Before yesterday, i was conviced that refuel store just transfered the fuel that it contain, nothing more. So, since i know this fact, i'm asking myself if, in Tanker configuration, drop tanks shouldn't be considered as "fuel store" only for "clients", not for the tanker, since, AFAIK, it's almost impossible into Harpoon (any version) to have an accurate fuel store management. (basically sahring fuel between tanker and "clients" and update the tanker's radius)…

Sea King AEW.7, id.10362 Name his official designation seems to be Sea King Mk7 ASaC but AEW.7 is very common too. Size, from Small to Large MaxAlt: real life ceiling is 4250, so MaxAlt should be High because Medium is up to 3500m, but High is up to 20000m. Pretty higher for an helo, don't u think? So let's keep it at Medium. Range: from 700 to 664 DATA: from 5,0 to 10,0 Pic: id: 240 http://ibelgique.ifrance.com/jansfiles/harpoon/res394.bmp Flags: Blip Enhance? U sure?

Introduction Harpoon Classic now has its first ever, user-editable database. What follows is an outline that will help you understand and utilize the Platform Editor that Jon Reimer so graciously and effectively designed for us. The Platform Editor allows you to manipulate existing data and add new items to the database for the WESTPAC and EC2003 Battlesets. ***CAUTION: Never, NEVER, delete a Major Annex entry in your database. Doing so will almost certainly cause HCGOLD to crash after exporting the database to the Game Engine (GE, henceforth). Major Annex entries are Aircraft, Ships, Submarines, Weapons, Sensors, Mounts, Installations and Text Description…

The Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB) is a weapon made by Boeing and the Saab Group, who modified Boeing's GBU-39 Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) with the addition of a rocket motor. Initial testing began in 2015. If supplied to Ukraine in 2023, this would mark the weapon's first export and use in combat. The weapon is launched from ground-based missile systems such as the M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System and M142 HIMARS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_Launched_Small_Diameter_Bomb View full record
