Thanks Gizzy. I will try this tonight: "There are 3 variables in the serverSettings.lua file C:\Users\<username>\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config) that dictate whether the integrity check will be enabled or not on your server. These are: "require_pure_textures" "require_pure_models" "require_pure_clients" If any of these 3 are set to false, the integrity check will be enabled. All 3 must be set to false to disable the check. For some reason, unchecking the Integrity Check button in the Server Settings page would only set the "require_pure_clients" variable to false -- it leaves the other 2 set to true. I had to manually edit the file in Notepad++ and set them to false. Once that was done, it disabled the integrity check "shield" from our server in the server list and we were able to run our mods again."

I've seen similar MP behavior ... integrity check appears on all the time regardless of checkbox status.

I’ve exclusively held my mods and skins in the Saved Games folder structure, but with 2.5 OB I’m experiencing strange MP server host and client errors even with integrity check turned off. This must be an existing early bug in 2.5 OB.

Are Mods, skins, etc limited by ED for multiplayer servers? Really strange stuff going on with "pure client" errors and player rejection for "tainting" ... whatever in the world that is.

Thanks for this very detailed science project! Downloading a clean install of 2.5 right now to try your findings ...

DCS California Wildfires Simulator effect ... I can just feel the heat. I now only fly with my Nomex flight gloves on. Good thing I didn't throw them away after I retired.

But I don't have fog turned on or at least I did not hit the check box ... Okay, from your link it would appear that the Yellow Rain does not fall mainly on the plain or just in Spain ...

Is the severe yellow tint in the sky with high wind conditions, winter date, and snow storm weather selected in OB 2.5 a graphics setting anomaly or a game glitch/bug? CauWXTest.miz

Anyone else seeing a severe yellow tint in the sky with high wind conditions, winter date, and snow storm weather selected in OB 2.5?

Pappy is smiling ...

Try using Active Pause (it's one of your existing keyboard commands depending on the module) ... set the key binding to whatever you like in Controls. Active Pause will freeze you in flight and let you operate all avionics and even fire weapons. Practice that "buttonology" to your heart's content. For the Harrier, it's highlighted below: Mods, feel free to move this to the appropriate section as you see fit.

Eddie, You are just simply crazy innovative! I wait with great anticipation to see what you do with 2.5! Expeditionary Airfields here we come ... I hope! I also hope we see the grass airstrips working in the ME! Cheers,

Thanks for the info. For the record, it was the USS Tarawa LHA. I will test it against the USS Carl Vinson to see if it also happens on that ship.

Nice! Thanks for the good work!

I imagine that the DRM protection of Nevada would not allow such modifications.

During a recent multiplayer session, I experienced a hard landing on the LHA and ejected from the deck of the Tarawa. The ejection sequence performed flawlessly. As I drifted under canopy towards the deck of the LHA, I fell through the LHA's interior onto the ocean's surface and was then run over by the LHA. My subsequent drowning resulted in an ineffective sortie and posthumous Flight Evaluation Board, or FEB, for loss of aircraft control while landing. Seriously, I presume the coding of the ejection animation does not currently treat the deck of the LHA as a "hard surface" like when you land on the ground. Can this be fixed? This is a low priority issue, but does impact simulator "realism" to some degree.

Works like a champ! Great tutorial Maverick!

We're going to have to change the name from DCS to DAS! Digital Artwork Simulator ... Very nice skins!

+1. (Paint the “modern Normandy” TACANs woodland green to blend in like they do cell phone towers in overly indulgent affluent neighborhoods in the US) :D

Thank you for sharing this mission Suntsag ... very helpful!

Any idea why rectangular AM-2s can't lay flat?

Great work once again!

I think the peeps are called NATO Man 1-4 ...

Work of art!

Nicely done! Can TACAN be set in Mission Editor with this? ... and can you post non-OVGME install instructions?
