Anyone solved this issue yet? I can't figure out how to get the Ka50_3 up to show in dcs interface

v1.0 Installation method changed. Now (with a little trick), integrity check: OK!
Hi Devrim, thanks for your work on these mods. Could you explain what this "little trick" to pass integrity check is? I'd like to reduce the resolution of the F14 panels to get better framerates while still being able to fly MP, but am unsure of how to install in Saved Games. Thanks ~

+1 to lua functionality and min/max settings. That would be awesome.
I thought the normal restocking of airfields worked though, so I just did a test and it appears you're right about the initial setting. It's acting like both the initial stock AND the max it will restock to.
For now a workaround may be to have late activated AI that you can later :destroy to absorb the initial stockpile of weapon x.
I hope your suggestion gets implemented!

Thanks, that works for making them show up, but the paint still isn't applied to the shape. It's like it can't see the .dds I'm using for the evu.I've tried using DIFFUSE, NORMAL_MAP instead of 0, 1 respectively as well which doesn't work. I've seen some other's liveries and looked at their description.lua and as far as I can tell mine is calling it identically.Also tried saving the dds as BC2 instead of BC7 to no avail.Any other ideas are appreciated ~Disregard...I need glasses. Thanks for the help ~

Have the file, but can't get the description.lua line for the game to recognize. Anyone know what it is?
This does not work:
-- IR Suppressors
{"mi-24p_evu", 0, "355_mi-24p_evu", false};
{"mi-24p_evu", 1, "mi-24p_evu_NRM", true};
{"mi-24p_evu", ROUGHNESS_METALLIC, "mi-24p_evu_RoughMet", true}; -
The easiest (and maybe only way really) is to use the scripting engine for this. Here's a script that will do what you want. Just make sure that whatever AI jet you want to have messages for has "AI" in it's name and run the script on a ONCE - TIME MORE trigger. Adjust as you like. I didn't look at the rest of your mission but this should get you the messaging part.

Thanks man, gives me a lot to chew on

I see I made a mistake not referencing the correct subtable within getPosition().p... Updated code below doesn't produce stack overflow, but now says the ".p" part of the position table is a nil value.

I had tried :getPoint() before and got a "C Stack Overflow" crash...just tried :getPosition().p and receive the same problem.
If you feel like taking a look, here's what I've got. No worries ~ Thanks

I am trying to get the coordinates of a spot that is offset from a known position, but I keep getting an error saying you can't perform arithmetic on a field that is a table value.
local client_position = event.initiator:getPosition()
local offset_position = { x = client_position.x + 50, y = 0, z = client_position.z + 50 }
This doesn't work, however this (unrelated example) does work:
HeadingToSub3 = mist.utils.getDir({ x = (SubPos3.x - heloPos.x) , y = 0 , z = (SubPos3.z - heloPos.z) })
It's got to be simple...but I'm kinda dumb.

I can't get mine working correctly with this module either. You're not alone!

In the patch today, 21 July 2021, it's noted the LD-10 radar cross section value was changed to 0.07. Does anyone know what the old value was? Thanks ~

+1 B version only. F-14A-135GR is fine.

You're always crushing my dreams man...
Thanks lol!

A Hummer should do the trick for that and communications. M818 for ammo. And the fuel truck for fuel.

AI harriers have been notoriously bad since day 1. If I had to guess I'd say they've not worked correctly in various ways 90% of patches and I wouldn't expect that to change.
I think your workaround is probably the only answer...or something in a similar vane. You could try giving them even less fuel and if there's an amount they will behave correctly with, then have them go direct to a tanker if you can work it in your scenario. I would also check that they are facing into the wind on takeoff...or even give them a direct tailwind just to test since coding gets easily messed up sometimes. Also wind speed might make a difference.
Just spitballing here...good luck ~

Any way to kill a pilot without touching the unit the pilot belongs to?
I have a script that punishes takeoff's under certain conditions and would like to kill the pilot instead of despawning the unit or putting explosions around it.
Thx

Same problem, dcs crashes about %50 of the time when spawning into a tomcat, pilot or rio. Seems related to lighting textures...

we had an internal vote for brm1 on inner pylons

Well, i will try again
Maybe some Old Toby would change their minds! We're not above bribery...

Just wanted to say thanks Deka. The new lighting situation + keybinds for brightness rheostats is great. Keep up the great work...you have a fan here.

Change Default Kneeboard Position
in DCS Core Wish List
Posted
As a multi-monitor user, the interface for the kneeboard is very annoying because of multiple drag/resize actions every time starting up an aircraft.
It would be very nice to either change the default position to the entire screen origin (x=0,y=0) or better yet implementing a UI element in the options to allow the user to specify a different location.
Thanks for your consideration.
