I have noticed that SRM4 launchers are placed with 6 tubes in the Right Torso of all the SHD variants. The Head and CT points look right depending on what launcher is in them - I've only seen it in the RT so far.

It's maybe done to reduce the gamefile-size as much as possible while still letting us fire all missiles in a single volley. Don't see why they put in a 4-tube slot for the CT if that's the case and not for the ST, though.

"Ah kids these days... In MY day we had one size o' dem launchers on our Atlas and we LIKED it!"

When playing older 'mechs you'll see some of them still have very limited tube-counts for their launchers and don't change their appearance depending on wich weapon you put in. Hopefully PGI gets to remaking them SOONTM.

Yeah, I've been around since the... second (?) round of Closed Beta invites, I know that the older chassis (esp. my beloved Centurion :P ) don't change according to what you have mounted.

That is why I limited it specifically to the Shadowhawk ;) My Locusts change, my SHD's change so long as it's not SRM's I'm swapping in and out. The problem seems to be just SRM4's looking like 6's - which is why I posted it here.
