MP servers require the server and all users to install mods for them to be seen. Most don’t because want to keep the client check active. However, a lot of virtual squadrons such as ours (vVF-142) use Admirals assets to help make the Cold War feel a little hotter.

Ah never mind, I thought I had overwritten the old version. But they had slightly different file names. My mistakes. 4.0 seems to have no Matras at all, which fixes it in a sense lol

No, the I meant the R530 Matras. I will send a screenshot when I get home from work. I love this mod though and am very great full for everyone’s work.

Will you be fixing the French Fox-1 placement? Sorry the missile name escapes me but currently they float above the wings. A few versions back when the US version had the sparrow this wasn’t an issue.

Virtual VF-142 Ghostriders VF-142 is a semi-milsim virtual squadron, representing the VF-142 Ghostriders of CVW-7 on CVN-69 Dwight D Eisenhower during their final F-14A cruise in the late 1980s. We are a strictly Cold War squadron flying the F-14A. This is a close-knit, like minded family with a love for all things Tomcat and Naval Aviation. Our main task is Fleet Air Defence and Air to Air. This means no Air to Ground and no targeting pods. If you are looking for constant action, we may not be what you are looking for. If late Cold War Naval Aviation is your thing, then we might be the place for you. We have an international member base and are based in Japan. JST / UTC+9. However, all missions are carried out in English. Training and Mission Times RAG Training for new members - Saturday Evening 9:00pm JST / UTC+9 Main squadron weekly event - Sunday Evening 9:00pm JST / UTC+9 Attendance is not mandatory but a certain level of participation is expected. How else can you build a virtual squadron if you don't fly and train together? We are not a clan, open group or open server. Recruiting We are looking for F-14A Pilots and RIOs to join us. We are also looking towards the future. With the coming release of the A-7E and A-6E we are hoping to expand into other CVW-7 squadrons. If any of these roles interest you, please come and visit us on our Discord server. Similarly we are always open to working with other Cold War based squadrons and groups. https://discord.gg/G2C7xSzQQM Requirements - Loyalty and willingness to learn & work with others. - F-14A Tomcat and Naval Aviation lover. - Ability to run and fly DCS steadily. - DCS F-14, Supercarrier, SRS, HOTAS, Syria, Kola when released - Be willing to install Skins and Mods

Thank you again for your comment. As TLTeo mentioned, discord is the place to go. Make an account, follow the link to the A-4 community page and then make a post. It can be a little confusing to use but if you have any problems send me a direct message here and I would be happy to help.

It is probably worth a shot. They have essentially set the gold standard in terms of mods and seem to be very serious about making it the best it can be within the limitations of what a mod can achieve. I’m just a sim enthusiast so I am not qualified to comment on realism but I felt it was very hard to handle around the boat. It made me wonder how such an aircraft could be used for carrier quals but after seeing your comments it was nice to see someone shared the opinion. This is not a complaint by any means, the A-4 mod is simply amazing.

You should contact the guys who made the A-4 on discord. I think your feed back would be appreciated and maybe they could use you as an sme.

@Beldin Is there any chance you could have a look at the parking? The aircraft are flipping nose first on parking which leaves the F-8 hanging over the side of the deck. Much appreciated!

Few more snaps from VF-142 training. 211 & 212 in the Marshall stack and reports of sub contact led to HS-5 scrambling a chopper to lend a hand to the USS Paul.

Edit: Redownloaded the latest version and all seems well! Thank you gents. Thank you for checking gentleman, I will re download and try again. Thank you all for the great work being done in this thread.

I was using the one linked in this thread, I thought it was the latest.

Good day all, I suffer from a DCS crash when the F-8 is in combat as an AI unit. It only happens at the merge and when they a dumping flares. I have a feeling the counter measures may be causing the crash but I cannot confirm it. Can anyone else do a quick check to see if it’s only on my end? Apologies for hijacking the thread, not sure where else to post.

Ike and escorts taking on supplies in "Gran Canary" while we do a cheeky fly by. Keep up the amazing work and best wishes on your health Admiral.
