Nuclear Hornet is a small hack by Marc Cooper for Graphic Simulations' F/A-18 Hornet flight simulator on the Macintosh. It patches the game to make special weapons loads available that the stock simulator does not normally allow the player to mount, distributed as low-cost shareware.
Special weapons for F/A-18 Hornet
The hack injects new weapon-load options into F/A-18 Hornet, opening up ordnance choices that the unmodified simulator keeps off the rack. It is aimed at players who want to experiment with what-if loadouts beyond the official mission templates.
Patches for several Hornet versions
The package contains four patch applications, each targeting a different version of F/A-18 Hornet, so users running varied builds of the simulator can apply the modification to their installed copy without manual surgery.
ResEdit document for direct installation
For users comfortable with Apple's resource editor, the archive also includes a ResEdit document containing the relevant resource. Pasting it directly into the Hornet application file installs the change without running a patch program.
Documentation and packaging
Read-Me files are provided in both SimpleText and ClarisWorks formats. The archive itself is StuffIt 3.5.2 compressed and BinHexed with a line-feed option intended to make Unix-side handling more reliable.
Shareware fee
Cooper asks a token shareware fee of five dollars from players who enjoy the modification, with contact details included for anyone who has trouble using or distributing the file.
