Default RDF Loop Antenna

Hmmm. Forgot how to raise it. Anyone recall the keys to raise or lower? seems to be stowed in slot all the time.

:hmm:
As far as I know, the RDF antenna can not be raised or lowered, only the radar antenna can (Shift-R). I don't have any idea why your antenna won't show up...

No, in the stock game the RDF loop was always down. GWX raised it, and now it's always up. Until you dive, of course.

We know what an RDF loop is, and how it works. It might have been created with an earlier stand-alone mod, and incorporated into GWX. In the game it is either up or down - down with the stock game, up with a mod. You can't raise or lower it while playing.

Sorry, that's the way it is.

My apologies - I thought you were lecturing. I don't know why it would be up in the stock game, as I've watched the development over the years and remember the people wishing they could see it.

Rgr that Steve...I'm just looking back through previous files to ascertain when we performed this heinous crime

Nope....was always down in stock, unless of course somebody developed a mod to raise and lower it, but I'm personally unaware.

Still looking for a dated file to let you know when GWX raised it. :hmm:
