Chap2012

Is the SBD released yet? Any other teasers for Pacific assets to go along with your project?

It has been awhile since I have been playing this. I updated to the current game version, and updated all of your assets minus some Chinese tanks and ships. All are showing up in game and working fine. Other then Admiral Gorshkov. The game will not launch when it is in my tech folder. Just a heads up!

@NineLine I will finish with this. I probably look like an ass to some. However, every great person, idea, or item has had a web of criticism behind them. It's important to know the good and the bad. You do a very hard job of dealing with the public opinion. I know as an RV Service Manager, dealing with rich people, with their rich toys. I'm behind you guys every step of the way as you guys have influenced me to leave my job and pursue aviation someday. For that, I can't thank enough. Have a good day all.

A way more elegant way to put it. As I did say the community mods definitely get us by while other things are being addressed. It just sucks to hear the same thing, again, and again. Hence the OP's initial post of us hearing about the same AI updates for years. I would love to use strictly ED models, but it is not immersive to fight ED modeled stand ins for missing assets.

I am taking account for all aspects of the game. Out of all the things listed. Assets are last on that list, that's all I'm saying. Do what you guys are doing, just know everything has been touched other then AI assets in the last two years. Including how they act and react. In all my missions I have to code AI to the point its all I do in a night. Only to have it broken in the next update. I love this game and what you guys do, but either the hardships need be acknowledged, or more help needs to be hired.

KS-19 is the only thing ED has added in the last two years. Correct me if I'm wrong. However, if I am right. This is a clear indication that assets are close to last on the list. Also saying that, ED is well behind on many things that can make the game far more enjoyable. If we have to live off of community mods for awhile that's just fine. Currenthill, Admiral89, and others are doing a fantastic job with it. Just recognize that it is not a priority of yours, and be honest with your community.

For all those that are wondering. It does work on the newest version of beta. However, it freezes the game when going to the loadout screen in the editor. You can however, arm the plane and choose the livery when you start the game and play like normal. So can't really use for AI, but you can play as it.

Couldn't agree more on the order! Wish I had more time to learn this art

@Hawkeye60 Have you been working on many more WW2 vehicles? It would be cool to have more armored cars and artillery. And anything Russian as they decided to do none of that in the assets pack

Just have to wait for the Ka-52 build. Can't remember who is making it but they are taking their time on every part of the bird. Definitely going to be worth the wait.

@Hawkeye60 Is there anyway you can make these not be invulnerable? They all work great other then that.. I've got the: IL2, Betty, Do 17, all doing this. The Lancaster is spawning IL76 in a circle when it gets destroyed. The more you shoot it the more spawn. Weird issue on that one

Hey @currenthill AWESOME additions lately. I know it's not really apart of what you are doing. But have you ever considered fortifications and buildings?? Also it would be killer for some WW2 stuff to supplement the lack of it. Especially helping the people that have not bought the asset pack.

I was thinking a Stormer HVM would be a good one. A little more modern and UK doesn't have much AA/SAMS

Had an idea of an SPG-9 or M40. Some old school Anti Tank weaponry that tons of countries use/used

Turret shape can tell you on this one. Look at a top angle comparison to the T80/T72 and it's quite different.

@currenthill Any thoughts on these smaller war changing weapons that are starting to dominate the battlefield. For example, Switchblades, lancets, Excalibur rounds, FPV drones, Javalins, USVs... I could keep going. We are in a very interesting age where a soilder that is outfitted with the right stuff is the most deadly part of the battlefield.

Still amazed how fast these are coming. I wish other mod makers would at least update theirs as much as you do. I think some more modern versions of the Bradley and Abrams would fit with what you got going now. T-90 and BMP-2 as well!

@Eight BallAny chance you were going to add more trains cars? It would be cool to have some train cars that have URAL, HUMVEE, BMP, ETC.

T-64 is not showing in my drop down menu. I have the French mod pack that has the T-64 in it as well though. So I'm wondering if this is causing a problem as I have no issues with any of the others.

<profanity>, by May we are going to have the world's arsenal. Will be donating/tipping for the hard work. Thank you.

@currenthill Awesome addition on the T-84! We needed a Nato "T" Series tank. I always thought this game had the PZH2000 but I realized it didn't. That would be a neat add on!

I knew you were going to do the Pantsir soon! Can't wait!

@currenthillKeep on going with these!! Your quality vehicles are what DCS needs. Thanks for the additions thus far!

@dimitriov Any chance a Caesar is coming our way in the future?

I'm curious to why every mod that takes over a full fidelity cockpit can't be played along side the original when there are mods that let you play both. All WW2 mods are this way along with the J10 and I think a few others.
