Thank you very much Marcost

Thank you, Marcost! 

May I ask, how does this differ from the gear damage effects already included in 4.12?

[marcost]

Thanks guys 

@Trent - this mod makes the undercarriage drop/partially drop on the aircraft you are attacking, if you cause hydraulic damage. To test, try attacking a large bomber and aim for the u/c area.

I've never seen this happen on stock 4.12 but could be wrong. I think what is modelled in 4.12 is damage to your own aircraft's u/c i.e. it may not deploy

I'm afraid this has already been modeled by Daidalos Team in the stock 4.12 game.   

I've seen the gear of aircraft drop down many times in 4.12. I've just tested it again, and was able to shoot a bomber's wheel wells until the gear dropped down (I don't have any gear damage mod installed).

There is also a paragraph in the official 4.12 User Guide that mentions that this has been implemented in the stock 4.12 game. See the link below. Read the paragraph under "Landing gear damages" on page 4 & 5...

Ah ok, then maybe the mod makes it more likely to happen 

I like the effect

I Installed it in my vp_modpack, and, in a dogfight with FWs, once hit, a German fighter dropped one gear,
