What he is saying is that it just says Bombs, rather than for example, GBU-12 Paveway II or whatever...
pretty low priority, but I suppose it could be cool.

Apart from immersion, does it make a difference if it says GBU-12 Paveway II or BOMBS? It certainly doesn't for the fella below you

.....
High Priority stuff is things that effect gameplay, mainly exploits, new types of vehicles, weapons, game modes etc that are needed to be done for that release.
Low Priority stuff is little small details that do not effect gameplay and only add to the immersion of the game...
Which would make this a low priority change.
Thou ye not a bad suggestion, just we most likely wont change it since we have other "High Priority" stuff to work on.
If you like, you can change this for us and we will integrate your change into the mod

I think he might actually understand the concept of what the difference in "Bombs" are....
> > Seeing how he really seems to actually like to know what he is dropping, it would "technically" be at least mid-priority, as it's more than immersion....
Especially if it just says "Bombs" on multiple jets, and if they react differently at all it could mean a bit of difference....
=D Ones who are knowledgeable in the exact specifications are more likely to be confused when given a general term..
> > Like i knew what RAM and Hard Disks were before i learned what the general term of "Memory"
So i would always be confused thinking they were talking about RAM instead of disk space o.O.....

So how would it be changed? Do you have to have the editor or something?

\menu\HUD\HudSetup\Vehicles\
then in there is a load of .con files, you need to find the right one (normally aint too hard) then you need to open that up with a text editor and then make the changes in that .con, might be as simple as a few lines of extra code, may be as hard as making a load of new images etc

Rhino just doesn't understand the importance.
That's it. I'm bumping this up to PRIORITY:MAGNUM
*GASP*
You're in for it now. No project has ever been given PRIORITY:MAGNUM and still been completed. We don't even know if it works. Any DEV who ever undertook a PRIORITY:MAGNUM priority task went crazy before completing the project.
Should be a simple change for someone to implement. So while Rhino is making Muttrah City v3 maybe one of you can help out and go through with these changes, eh?

If all you want to change is the bomb name, its about 1 minute of finding and opening the right file, looking for where it says "bomb" and changing as you please.
If you want an entire new hud, that takes a bit more work, and a steep learning curve.

For those too young

i think it's cool to see the name of the armament :}
if you can fly a jet good, you should know the name of the bombs!
