Viel spannender wäre gewesen, wenn man die Higgins bereits beladen spawnen könnte. Ich habs nicht geschafft. So könnte man auf der Normandie Map Normandie Dinge tun. Oder mit den Landungsschiffen, aber nein... intuitiv jedenfalls nicht. Vielleicht weiß da jemand mehr.

nö, muss er nicht. Windows gibt den Pfad vor, DCS sucht nach der Vorgabe und speichert dort. NUR den DCS Ordner kannst Du mit symbolischen Links auf einen anderen Ordner zeigen. Such im Forum, da gibt es einige Beiträge zu. Ich habe z.B. die Corld War Germany von der SSD auf die NVME verlinkt, weil sie unheimliche Lesezugriffe hatte, die meine SSD nicht mehr packte, aber das ist ein persönliches Hardware Problem.

truth is, they have other abilities, than we have. e.G. B-52 low level flyby a carrier as seen in 2023 and beyond. Impossible to recreate, as the AI does not fly lower than 300 feet. As far as I could find out.

in general i asked for converting DMS to XY in this thread: never tried the mentioned funcition, because it does not solve my problem, but the work around was made by the DCS MAPVIEWER Guys. Still searching for a solution outside of lua. What you need is at least a reference point, where the the map creator started counting. E.g. Germany Map is the harbour at Kaliningrad, which is way outside the map itself. Then there are so many variables that i lost track and knowledge. Is the map rotated? Is a sphere to be recognized? Try Chatgpt for a Excel Spreadsheet and start working from that. Again I gave up on the Germany Map. There are smarter guys but not really sharing their knowledge.

ED schiebt immer mehr an Updates durch, als in den Patchnotes beschrieben wurde. z.B. wurde der MP Bug mit dem desync des Fahrwerkes der F4U wohl behoben. Wenn Karten dabei sind, wird es sehr schnell sehr groß. Ich verpasse es leider immer wieder den Download Ordner zu beobachten, aber alles, was irgendwie verschlüsselt ist, scheint jedes Mal mit geupdated zu werden. Mag aber auch sein, dass mein erster Satz dort greift. Die Updatephilosophie ist wie so vieles andere einfach nur grottig. Es gibt Änderungen oder neue features in den scripten, die undokumentiert sind und vielen von uns wirklich hilfreich wären. Das passiert leider immer wieder. Ein Patchlog wie er jetzt erscheint plus eine ausführliche Dokumentation wäre nett, aber wo sind wir denn, es gibt ja hoggit. Im letzten Patch war ein größeres Update für die Sinai Map dabei, das erklärt jedenfalls, warum es so viel war.

to be hones, i dont know, BUT: - in the ME you can change their skills. What ED does in the background, i dont know. Best guess: longer and later aquisition and therefore later engagement. They may roll the dice if they got a lock or not. - within skynet you can change the range when they engage, which is not exactly what you want, but you can... from the documentation: Just read this: https://github.com/walder/Skynet-IADS?tab=readme-ov-file#warm-up-the-sam-sites-of-an-iads dont get scared by the code, it comes together snippet by snippet.

IADS with Skynet is pretty active, at least on their Discord. Love these features but to be honest, is struggle sometimes or do not understand, why things happen the way they happen and should not. Aside that, Skynet - if properly set up - turns off their systems and relys on EWR radars. If you are in engagement range they turn on and angage you. The impact is so far, that you don't know where they are - if hidden by the mission creator - unless it is too late. Also you cannot engage by harm unless they turn on, thus allows wild weasle tactics. Aside the existing Harm tactics like shoot on known position and trigger them to turn on. So yes, there is a lot of possibilities and many more if you are eager to dive into lua scripting. What i am really missing is the DEAD component. Jamming is also a thing which is not simulated in a way, a jamming flight would make sense. I know, there are some nice scripts, but the do not satisfy the way we all need. e.g. ELINT pods. Really done by the viggen only, but the evaluation is not implemented. The old ELINT map is not working anymore. I dug into some git pages where people seems to do nice things but never found a online place, or mod which supports our needs. I totally understand, that a company needs to make money by selling stuff, but there is still a huge amount of possibilities which are not addressed yet which needs to go to the core features. Edit: A revisit on Hound seems to be a good idea! Still, those things really should be core features.

das ist ein relativ neues Feature und zeigt, dass das Objekt zu schräg steht für den Einsatz. Bewege es so, dass die Symbole weg sind und alles ist gut. Bemannen ist reine Optik, funktionieren tun sie trotzdem.

can you give me a link, where you downloaded it? Ill give it a try

you are totally right, it was that, and still ist somethin totally different https://wiki.hoggitworld.com/view/DCS_func_LLtoLO

well, the title says it. I described it here: My Idea is to manipulate the mission file within the .miz to import IP points. Like DAFIF, Navaids, Obstacles and what have you. Those are represented as x and y in the code. I learned already, that those are cartesian / gnomonic coordinates and the 0 point is somewhere, but on each map different. Additionally some DCS maps are rotated like Germany CW for some +7 degrees. ChatGPT is helping me a lot, by creating an excel file where i enter the Lat Lon in decimal, whe 0 Point and the rotation, but the calculation is off and makes no sense at all. Could be me. I am shure it is me, but maybe there is someone out there helping with that. I knew, that there where some threads talking about it, but those guys are MIA for some years. Also, - if i remember right, moose fas a funktion calculating it, and also the expor.lua has a hint to solve this - stupid me dont get it. TLDR; can someone smarter than me provide an excel file calculating Lat Lon to X and Y (should be Z, but thats what it is), taking in account a possible rotation of the map and the 0 Point of the X and Y? € It seems to be called geoLat and geoLong like Lat 48,717069 Lon 9,367466 maybe even converting them from Lat Lon, gut i guess there i would find a conversion to somewhere online.

exact! Just park them somewhere. with changing slot is ment the screen, where you shoose your plane and then press ESC, choose different slot (or choose slot? dont remember, that damn muscle memory ^^ ) Loading a different mission would reset the loaded files.

First jump into an F-15c (or one of the others mentioned, depending of the VSN), this will load the corresponding files for the VSN Mods. Jumping directly jumping into an VNS will not trigger loading those files.

Sorry for the Spam, but YOU are the greatest!! null And so it begins

thats exactly what i want, but without the connections of the airways. Within the ME, you can set the initial points. In the mission file it looks like that. ["nav_points"] = { [1] = { ["type"] = "Default", ["comment"] = "", ["callsignStr"] = "Siegessaeule", ["id"] = 1939, ["properties"] = { ["vnav"] = 1, ["scale"] = 0, ["vangle"] = 0, ["angle"] = 0, ["steer"] = 2, }, -- end of ["properties"] ["y"] = -483295.52575995, ["x"] = -215817.82661626, }, -- end of [1] I found no other way than editing that file to import these en mass. and at the bottom you see those cartesian format. Thats why I need to convert the originals Lat Lon.
