It looks confusing between ' or " with the lua filename. dofile line's /hy4.lua part has to be quoted by " similar to mount_vfs_***_path lines.

Hi. I read this and faq topics , I understand difficulties about making 1960s' map. But I request Sinai 1967 or 1973 again. I don't mean "Free expansion of DCS: Sinai" , I'll pay another early-access $39.99 for Sinai 1967 (or 1973).

DCS World core codes might use also lua's length value to decide safe or not about taxing route / parking space. Using too small values of wing_span or length for modded airplanes will bring colliding with airport buildings or poles , btw ...

my own wip

Hi. It hears like DCS World's core program bug (a bad feature in current versions) ; not related to modding or 3d model exporting.

My first mod making on DCS. I cannot say when I will finish it , still under learning about DCS aircraft models.

I wrote .... Their changelogs are : https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/changelog/stable/2.7.10.19473/ https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/changelog/openbeta/2.7.10.18996/

Hi, Hawkeye60. Do you have a plan to retouch your Fletcher DD to its 1960s style ? - remove 3rd 5-inch turret , all torpedo tubes , all 40mm / 20mm guns , all depth charge K-guns (keep depth charge dropping racks remaining). - replace radars , add some communication antennas. - add 3x 3-inch twin AAA with their trackers. - add 2x triple lightweight anti-submarine torpedo tubes. Fitting Vietnam war and later those Fletchers were sold to Argentina / Chile / Greece / Turkey etc. So, modernized Fletcher model will fit South Atlantic map and Syria map. Sumner class DDs (published as WW2 Allied Atlantic fleet) were also modernized for 1960s and sold to same navies later.

Hi. In real life, ILS radio waves can be caught by aircrafts at 25nm in 10 degrees from the centerline, at 17nm in 35 degrees from the centerline.

Congratulations ! This mod will make DCS missions more exciting. May I ask you .... Do you mind drawing fictional or fake skin liveries for your M28 ? I wonder some fictional paints for M28 gives Nevada / Marianas / SA maps' airports more fun.

Thank you, Grimes. I might misunderstand / be confused about old missions' status with CVN-70. I've checked again them and found you are right. CVN-70 has not been deleted , only disappeared in mission editor.

Once I and Tank50us, draconus reported this issue in patch note discussion thread 2022 on 18th/March/2022 , but no reaction to today. I write it again here. From Changelog pages: C-47 Skytrain (military transport version of Douglas DC-3) AI aircraft came to DCS World as a content of WWII Assets Pack in version 2.7.9.17830 ob on 23rd/December/2021 , and merge to stable 2.7.9.18080 on 30th/December/2021. It was announced as moving to DCS World's free content from W2AP in 2.7.10.18996 ob on 27th/January/2022 or 2.7.10.19473 stable on 9th/February/2022. But C-47 still stays in W2AP in current 2.7.16.28157 (both ob and stable). I've checked aircraft list in mission editor with W2AP installed or uninstalled. C-47 appears only with W2AP like B-17. Please check each download packages about C-47. One more about website texts. WWII Assets Pack page --- https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/modules/wwii_assets_pack/ refers moved free contents like A-20 Boston / M4 Sherman / Panzer IV / Bofors 40mm gun. C-47 Skytrain should be written as same as them after moved to DCS World's free one.

Hi. In my testing, when KS-19s are attacked directly by gun or rockets from the enemy aircraft, KS-19s begin to aim it and fire as a counter without SON-9 radar. Only fly-pass over KS-19s ..... they do nothing as you wrote. I set the waypoint advanced option ; ROE = Weapon Free , but KS-19s' behavior is not changed. ROE option looks ignored.

CVN-70 USS Carl Vinson is the legacy CATOBAR carrier in DCS with a cheap 3d model. In version 2.7.16. 28157 (both OB and stable) , she looks disappeared. I cannot find her in mission editor. Many old missions (also ED / 3rd Parties' Instant Actions) using CVN-70 become to lose compatibility ..... no Starting Waypoint / Landing Waypoint for Navy aircrafts. (negated on 14th/Aug.) I've not heard the announce that "CVN-70 will be deleted from DCS World". Is it something accident ?

Kfir !!! Exciting news continue one and after. New B-1B texture works look brilliant. B-1B ... S-3B ... B-52H ... new 3d models + new textures ; I can't wait their publishing. How about C-17 next ?

Oh, I see ! Thanks your feedback.

reproduced in my DCS World 2.7.16.28157 Open Beta . The model is shown in mission editor. But not in mission flying. dcs.log : "ERROR APP: unknown static shape_name, category , type: HarborTug"

Some of 2.7.16.27869's bugs are not fixed yet.

In my trying , F/A-18C breaks its nose gear at 115 kt GS / 125 kt CAS (w/ 10 kt wind) at ED's Skiramp.

After updating DCS World open beta to the current 2.7.16.27869 , South Atlantic Assets' HMS Achilles F12 disappears about 3d model rendering. Mission Editor's Loadout option screen or "Show models" mode also fails to show the 3d model. Only F12 is troubled. Other Leander class ships (F57 and F72 , Chilean PFG-06/07) are OK. Error lines in dcs.log are here.

Comparing DCS World's new Skiramp object and joey45 's Ground Ramp object mod . A bit different length and gradient. Skiramp might be in the same dimensions of HMS Invincible R05's ski-jump deck after 1989 (not equal to 1982 one and RAZBAM's Invincible object ... perhaps).

The latest ob patch brings many AI subtypes of Mirage F1 not only flyable module Mirage F1CE. Total Twenty Three subtypes , LOL !!! They are assigned to countries historically operated. COUNTRY=France has 6 , COUNTRY=Spain has 8 ... not so confusing.

With today's DCS 2.7.16.27869 Open Beta patch, New - Airfield Pampa Guanaco New - Airfield San Julian New - Terrain Detail maps (still WIP) most of the south and parts of the mid to north areas New - Some additional cliffs added around Falklands Islands New - introduction of vegetation maps in the north of the mainland New - custom beaches around Falklands Islands New - Towns: Gobernador Gregores, Puerto San Julian, Estancia La Maria, Punta Quilla, Santa Cruz and SA map install folder size becomes 80 GB .

From wikipedia --- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SD_Tempest ART 8032 class tugboat working for Royal Navy is 32.9 m (107 ft 11 in) long.
