Eight Ball

I guess that's when there's only one playable unit in the mission (Player). But with "client", even if it's only one, it will retain the exact emplacement and zoom level as displayed in the ME when the mission was saved. This also applies for the next time you'll open the mission in the ME.

Anyone knows which .lua I'd have to edit in order to change the default FOV for the driver view. Additionally if anyone knew what to tweek to get TrackIR, and not the mouse, to control the view when in first person that'd be sweet.

Yes there are. It's up to the mission designer, it will retain the emplacement and the zoom level used when he saved his mission. It can be quite useful but not many people seems to be aware of this tho

To be honest, this is pretty much I said a few years ago in a similar thread when someone was comparing DCS maps and ArmA maps. But I believe the current DCS terrain engine is mature enough to see the ground gameplay expanded. My old gripes was the lack of details and how everything was flat. Not anymore, not at all The ability to enter/exit our aircraft and ground vehicles would really expand the scope of the game, it'd be a huge leap forward in player's imersion aswell as opening completely new doors from a mission design standpoint. The requests for more "gaming" aspect are rising and IIRC have been acknowledged by ED. Right now, even with the best mission designer, the way the player interacts with the game is quite sterile and almost nothing has been done about that since the begining of DCS World. When you start a mission in DCS, the first thing you're greeted with is the bare bone, tiny briefing interface. It doesn't feel like anything a pilot would experience before a flight and mission designer have very little ways to customize it, all they have at their disposal is a 512x512 picture feature and the ability to add, litterally, a wall of text. The player reads it, while feeling completely disconnected from virtual world events and then is teleported to his aircraft. The other day, I came across the VNAO Ready Room mod: I really believe this is an important brick in the wall of imersion. Get rid of the old briefing interface and replace it with something similar. With a proper customisation feature, this could really help with the feeling of being there. I took the liberty to annote a few of their pics to give an example of what I mean with customisation

Glad you guys like it. Sorry Stratos, I just saw your post. What do mean exactly? You'd like this soldier for iraq or another camo?

ODS² UN landrover

New! UN livery for the landrover 109 DOWNLOAD Extract and place the United Nations folder in: \Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\land_rover_109_s3

Your welcome, guys :) Yes! Please do. I remember seeing your VPC template but couldn't find them when I wanted to download them :thumbup:

:thumbup:

I guess the easiest way would be to flesh out the Insurgent "country" so they're just like the USAF Aggressor. It'd be nice if all the liveries were available to those factions aswell.

there are some conflict with previously released pack: "1_Ships_Bunker_Flak 2.5". But if you have this pack already installed, you should remove the following folders (located in mods/tech) "HelicopterLZ", "Goal_Marker" and "OilRig" I just did a quick test with the latest update and everything seems to work, the helipad tower is fixed aswell as the missing textures. Thanks Upuaut :thumbup:

Which aircraft is this refering to?

Thanks!

Not sure where to put this, it would be nice to have a dedicated section for these, similar to the one we have for the liveries. - Iranian Airbases by Rudel chw (Bandar Abbas, Shiraz Intl.

Weird, I tested it on the day I posted the pic. Not really sure what's going on, he has updated his helipads pack tho

This isn't cheating. When the mission was made, 6 years ago, trees were not collidable.

It might very well be possible that the mission is...impossible. It was made with the older version of the Caucasus map where trees where not collidable. Also, this part of the forum is for usermade missions, your issue should be posted here: https://forums.eagle.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=270 EDIT: well: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=216663

Thanks! You'll have to use triggers to remove the pylons along the tracks if you want to have fun with helos. Here's a quick demo mission Trains.miz

:)

Thanks Strut :)

No sure if it's still true but on the TBS site they say ED has 55 employees.
