The Impostor

Hi there! Since windows 10 eol is coming, and windows 11 is completely riddled with intrusive AI (features (esp. Recall)), forced updates that brick many people's systems, and coercive policies as well as DRM, there is no way people are going to use windows at any time soon in the forseeable future (after 2025). for this reason, ED should wake up and realize the fact that windows is already proving its inferiority while linux is doing the exact opposite. no need to find evidence to prove it - microsoft is already shooting itself in the foot. That's why we believe that ED needs to either make DCS compatible with DXVK, Vulkan, VKD3D or OpenGL, so that they can be run natively on linux, or they can just publish their app as a flatpak (flathub) anyway without having to spend loads of time porting their apps to linux . The YoTLD begins NOW. (btw, we already have a computer running mint, so that's the whole point of the this argument)

Or maybe, it would be a lot much better for Eagle Dynamics to publish DCS as a flatpak (flathub repo) because the latter doesn't force people to manually edit config files inside the DCS directory? Here are the submission guidelines if you plan to submit DCS as a flatpak package repo: https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/submission

@Nightstorm, I've successfully incorporated the AIM-260A JATM as well as the AIM-9x Bl.III on the F-16, F-18, A-10, F-86, F-15E, F-2, EF Typhoon, Rafale by copying the CLSID of the AIM-260A + AIM-9X Bl.III such as: { CLSID = "{AIM-260A}" ,arg_value = 0.0}, When you copy that to an aircraft LUA module using Notepad ++, notice that the aircraft has several CLSIDs, which dictates which weapons that aircraft would store. (e.g.: F-16C.lua). I placed the CLSID of the JATM on the aircraft lua file (if you can't find it, either head to the aircraft folder, then either search for Entry/Weapons/Scripts or if possible the aircraft LUA module will simply appear alongside entry.lua. Then when I loaded DCS I could not just only successfully incorporate it, but also the missile worked when the AI F-16 launched the JATM. That's what it takes to incorporate a new weapon to other planes. Remember you need a lot of good coding skills for this, especially LUA. Better TAKE 100% risks for this.

Hi @Nightstorm I have a question for you: I have to say thank you for you to have this amazing F-22 enhancement mod, the mod works perfectly fine, also the aim 260 mod also works on the @Spino's F-15EX and F-15CGE as well, but the thing is, i need the aim-260 jATM mod to work properly on other US and NATO aircraft (e.g. F-16, F-18, F-35, F-4). So how can i do so? Anyway is it ok to copy the A2AMissiles.lua file from the F-22 Enhancement Single Player folder to Program Files / Eagle Dynamics / DCS Openbeta / Coremods / aircraft/ Aircraft Weapon Pack and do something else or so?
