Strut

Sorry it didnt work, I just tried and couldnt pull any code from the EDM files for the Stennis either. Il try and contact Uboats he might give the app a tweak or two.

Try this : {"CVN-74_03_DAM", 0, "cvn-74_03", true}; --{"CVN-74_03_DAM", 2, "cvn-74_spec_03", true}; --{"CVN-74_03_DAM", 5, "navy_damage_main", true}; --{"CVN-74_03", 0, "cvn-74_03", true}; --{"CVN-74_03", 2, "cvn-74_spec_03", true}; --{"CVN-74_02", 0, "cvn-74_02", true}; --{"CVN-74_02", 2, "cvn-74_spec_02", true}; --{"CVN-74_01", 0, "cvn-74_01", true}; --{"CVN-74_01", 2, "cvn-74_spec_01", true}; --{"CVN_74_Glass", 0, "cvn-74_tga", true}; --{"CVN-74_TGA", 0, "cvn-74_tga", true}; --{"Paluba_BANO_bill_01", 0, "cvn_74_bano_01", true}; --{"DECK LIGHT", 0, "cvn_74_bano_01", true}; --{"CVN_Glass Night", 0, "f15_bano", true}; --{"CVN_Glass Night", 8, "f15_bano", true}; --{"Paluba_BANO_bill_02", 0, "cvn_74_bano_02", true}; --{"DECK RED", 0, "cvn_74_iflols_red", true}; --{"CVN-74_01_DAM", 0, "cvn-74_01", true}; --{"CVN-74_01_DAM", 2, "cvn-74_spec_01", true}; --{"CVN-74_01_DAM", 5, "navy_damage_main", true}; --{"CVN-74_Cabin", 0, "cvn-74_tga", true}; --{"CVN-74_Cabin", 8, "cvn-74_tga", true}; --{"CVN-74_Angar", 0, "cvn-74_angar", true}; --{"IFLOLS", 0, "iflols_base", true}; --{"IFLOLS", 1, "iflols_normal", true}; --{"IFLOLS", 2, "iflols_base_roughmet", true}; --{"MK_95", 0, "mk_95_base", true}; --{"MK_95", 1, "mk_95_normal", true}; --{"MK_95", 2, "mk_95_base_roughmet", true}; --{"Molniya_BANO_bill", 0, "f15_bano", true}; --{"Phalanx", 0, "phalanx_base", true}; --{"Phalanx", 1, "phalanx_normal", true}; --{"Phalanx", 11, "phalanx_base_roughmet", true}; --{"Flame14", 0, "flame_14", true}; --{"Flame14", 8, "flame_14", true}; --{"Flame12", 0, "flame_12", true}; --{"Flame12", 8, "flame_12", true}; --{"Flame13", 0, "flame_25", true}; --{"Flame13", 8, "flame_25", true}; --{"Flame11", 0, "flame_11", true}; --{"Flame11", 8, "flame_11", true}; --{"Flame F14", 0, "flame_f14", true}; --{"Flame F13", 0, "flame_f13", true}; --{"Flame F11", 0, "flame_f11", true}; --{"Flame F12", 0, "flame_f12", true}; --{"Vodostok", 0, "vodostok_base", true}; --{"Vodostok", 1, "vodostok_normal", true}; --{"Vodostok", 2, "vodostok_base_roughmet", true}; --{"Mk_29", 0, "mk_29_base", true}; --{"Mk_29", 1, "mk_29_normal", true}; --{"Mk_29", 2, "mk_29_base_roughmet", true}; --{"Mk_49", 0, "mk_49_base", true}; --{"Mk_49", 1, "mk_49_normal", true}; --{"Mk_49", 11, "mk_49_base_roughmet", true}; --{"CVN-74_02_DAM", 0, "cvn-74_02", true}; --{"CVN-74_02_DAM", 2, "cvn-74_spec_02", true}; --{"CVN-74_02_DAM", 5, "navy_damage_main", true}; --{"Vodostok_LIFT", 0, "vodostok_4_base", true}; --{"Vodostok_LIFT", 1, "vodostok_4_normal", true}; --{"Vodostok_LIFT", 2, "vodostok_4_base_roughmet", true}; --{"OP_BANO_bill", 0, "f15_bano", true}; --{"IFLOLS LIGHTS GREEN", 0, "cvn_74_iflols_green", true}; --{"IFLOLS LIGHTS ORANGE", 0, "cvn_74_iflols_orange", true}; --{"IFLOLS LIGHTS RED", 0, "cvn_74_iflols_red", true}; --{"L-39C", 0, "l39c_diff_", true}; --{"L-39C", 1, "l39c_nm", true}; --{"L-39C", 2, "l39c_spec_", true}; --{"L-39C", 5, "l39c_damage", true}; --{"L-39C_headlight_R", 0, "l39c_bano", true}; --{"CVN-74_HEADLIGHTS", 0, "cvn_74_bano_01", true}; To be able to find these you can use the excellent "Uboats EDM Livery Extractor" Download it here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1744284/

Magoo, I would need to look at your textures and lua file, can you PM me a link to your skin folder with all the txtures and lua, then I will be able to see and help. otherwise see if any of these lines below relate: --{"Su_24MR_vn_konus", 0, "su_24mp_vn_konus_", true}; --{"Su_24MR_vn_konus", 1, "su_24mp_vn_konus_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MR_vn_konus", 2, "su_24mp_vn_konus_spec", true}; --{"Su_24MR_vn_konus", 5, "su_24_f1__damage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_glass", 0, "su_24mp_glass", true}; --{"Su_24MP_glass", 2, "su_24mp_glass_spec", true}; --{"su24MP_k36", 0, "su-24mp_k36", true}; --{"su24MP_k36", 2, "su-24mp_k36_specular", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil", 0, "su-24mp_kil", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil", 1, "su-24mp_kil_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil", 2, "su-24mp_kil_specular", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil", 5, "su-24mp_kil_damage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_KONSOL_R", 0, "su-24mp_konsol_r_", true}; --{"Su_24MP_KONSOL_R", 1, "su-24mp_konsol_r_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_KONSOL_R", 2, "su-24mp_konsol_r_specular", true}; --{"Su_24MP_KONSOL_R", 5, "su-24mp_konsol_r_demage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f2_f3", 0, "su_24mp_f2_f3_", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f2_f3", 1, "su_24mp_f2_f3_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f2_f3", 2, "su_24mp_f2_f3_specular", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f2_f3", 5, "su_24mp_f2_f3_damage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1", 0, "su_24mp_f1_", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1", 1, "su_24mp_f1_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1", 2, "su_24mp_f1_spec", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1", 5, "su_24mp_f1__damage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_chrome", 0, "su_24mp_chrom", true}; --{"Su_24MP_chrome", 2, "su_24mp_chrom_specular", true}; --{"Su_24MP_chrome", 12, "chromic_blur", true}; --{"Su_24MP_headlight", 0, "su-24mp_bano", true}; --{"bd3_usk_a", 0, "bd3-usk-a", true}; --{"bd3_usk_a", 2, "bd3-usk-a_spec", true}; --{"Su_24MP_KONSOL_L", 0, "su-24mp_konsol_l_", true}; --{"Su_24MP_KONSOL_L", 1, "su-24mp_konsol_r_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_KONSOL_L", 2, "su-24mp_konsol_l__specular", true}; --{"Su_24MP_KONSOL_L", 5, "su-24mp_konsol_l_demage", true}; --{"su24MP_parachute", 0, "su-24mp_parachute_paint", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n", 0, "su-24mp_kil", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n", 1, "su-24mp_kil_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n", 2, "su-24mp_kil_specular", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n", 3, "su-24mp_numbers", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n", 5, "su-24mp_kil_damage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n_n", 0, "su-24mp_kil", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n_n", 1, "su-24mp_kil_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n_n", 2, "su-24mp_kil_specular", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n_n", 3, "su-24mp_numbers", true}; --{"Su_24MP_kil_n_n", 5, "su-24mp_kil_damage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n", 0, "su_24mp_f1_", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n", 1, "su_24mp_f1_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n", 2, "su_24mp_f1_spec", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n", 3, "su-24mp_numbers", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n", 5, "su_24mp_f1__damage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n_n", 0, "su_24mp_f1_", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n_n", 1, "su_24mp_f1_normal", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n_n", 2, "su_24mp_f1_spec", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n_n", 3, "su-24mp_numbers", true}; --{"Su_24MP_f1_n_n", 5, "su_24mp_f1__damage", true}; --{"Su_24MP_glass_damage", 0, "su_24mp_glass", true}; --{"Su_24MP_glass_damage", 2, "su_24mp_glass_spec", true}; --{"Su_24MP_glass_damage", 5, "su_24mp_f1__damage", true}; --{"pilot_SU", 0, "pilot_su", true}; --{"pilot_SU", 2, "pilot_su_specular", true}; --{"pilot_SU_24MP", 0, "pilot_su", true}; --{"pilot_SU_24MP", 2, "pilot_su_specular", true}; --{"12 - Default", 0, "bd4-ask-b", true}; --{"12 - Default", 2, "bd4-ask-b_spec", true}; --{"Su_24_f2_f3", 0, "su_24_f2_f3_", true}; --{"Su_24_f2_f3", 1, "su_24_f2_f3_normal", true}; --{"Su_24_f2_f3", 2, "su_24_f2_f3_specular", true}; --{"Su_24_f2_f3", 5, "su_24_f2_f3_damage", true}; --{"su24_afterburn_1", 0, "su_24_lopatki1", true}; --{"su24_afterburn_29", 0, "su24_afterburn", true}; --{"su24_afterburn_28", 0, "su24_afterburn", true}; --{"su24_afterburn_gor28", 0, "su24_afterburn", true}; --{"Su_24_vn_konus", 0, "su_24_vn_konus_", true}; --{"Su_24_vn_konus", 1, "su_24_vn_konus bump", true}; --{"Su_24_vn_konus", 2, "su_24_vn_konus_specular", true}; --{"Su_24_vn_konus", 5, "su_24_f1__damage", true}; --{"Su_24_f1", 0, "su_24_f1_", true}; --{"Su_24_f1", 1, "su_24_f1_normal", true}; --{"Su_24_f1", 2, "su_24_f1_specular", true}; --{"Su_24_f1", 5, "su_24_f1__damage", true}; --{"Su_24_glass", 0, "su_24_glass", true}; --{"Su_24_glass", 2, "su_24_glass_spec", true}; --{"Su_24_chrome", 0, "su_24_chrom", true}; --{"Su_24_chrome", 2, "su_24_chrom_specular", true}; The way I found these is by using "Uboats EDM Livery Extractor" found here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1744284/. Anyway good luck.

Thanks Cobra , Its a labour of love :thumbup: As to the link , I do have a link showing just above my Sig, " Struts Skins in User Files" - you should be able to see it from there. But yes I will in future put a direct link in. Il do it now.

Thanks very much Ian, Scotch, Sting and Javelina for your kind words and praise. This is my favourite paint for the Scooter. I also have fond memories of the SkyHawk from my early years in the Australian Army when we used to have them come and fly CAS for us. Allthough we got a little peeved when the Government sold them to NZ and to our amazement leased some back. If you blokes pick up on any faults pleas let me know and I will fix them. Its always good to have a critical eye run over my work. Thanks again.

I have uploaded the Skins to User Files, they should be released soon. Some final Pics and some historical pics below: Royal Australian Navy Skyhawks VF805, Two skins are included : No 887 of VF 805 Royal Australian Navy and a Generic skin of VF 805 in the Blue and Grey camouflage scheme. The original aircraft were A-4G Skyhawks which Australia flew off the HMAS Melbourne up to about 1980/82. The McDonnell Douglas A-4G Skyhawk is a variant of the Douglas A-4 Skyhawk attack aircraft developed for the Royal Australian Navy. The model was based on the A-4F variant of the Skyhawk, and was fitted with slightly different avionics as well as the capacity to operate AIM-9 Sidewinder air-to-air missiles.

A little tweaking and she'll be right !

Hi Rick, I suggest you look through the "User Files" here https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/ If you cant find the skin then I will work on one for you, if you have good fidelity pictures of the "skin" you want please post them. They will give me a starting point.

Thanks Uboats :thumbup:

@ Backdraft, if you have "One Drive" or similar put the skin folder in there and send me a link, then I can look at your files.

Nice job mate !

:chair: :thumbup: :D

Backdraft can you Zip up all your textures , the Lua and send them to me , Il have a look at what your doing. its a bit hard to work out exactly what your doing and describing.

Your lookiing at the right line and should look something like this: {"pilot_MI8_patch", 0 ,"pilot_MI8_patch",false}; Use "false" to display your texture.

Thanks for that pic mate, its very "Fire Engine / Candy Apple Red" isnt it. This is the pic I took its colours from, maybe the original, probably faded, would be interested to know what the real original "Red " paint was when it was doing the show flying in its day.

These A4 skins updated as at 09 Jan 2019 Heres a link to the skin in user files:https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3303096/

In this thread

Will do Cobra thx mate ! Yeah the III will be pretty nostalgic for a lot of people i reckon. Then Il have to do all my Mirage skins all over again hahah.

Thx Cobra, glad you like them, I did 901 because I found your web site a few years ago and found the plane there. Il visit down there one day, im up in the HunterValley so its not far.

I was gunna say have a look in the Skins section !:drunk: And have a look the others I did in this post here https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=204913

I dont know if its against the rules or if its been asked for in the past, so Im requesting now for a dedicated thread be raised to place all Skyhawk livery's in. thankyou:thumbup:

Thanks Opy, keep knocking em down mate , hahah.

Greg, very sorry to hear youve been hectored off YouTube. Dont give in to these geek numpty's, most of them wouldnt know the soggy end of a cigar and would wet themselves if they tried to bully you face to face. I really enjoyed your informative and highly interesting vids. From one vet to another good luck mate and thanks.

The name I just had in mind was DCS FIP (DCS Flight Information Panel). Easy to remember and just says what it is :D Sounds good to me Eule, good luck with it.:thumbup:

I agree with Snacko, checklists would be great first off the bat, then maps. As for a name, just a thought, we used to use aid memoirs for certain things and placed them in a waterproof folder about the size of a hand held note book with transparent sleeves so you could also write on them, we called this a "Vuey Tuey" spoken like "Viewy twoee", just an idea !
