Highwayman-Ed

Don't wonder, order ;)

Hey guys, great mod I'm having a blast with some new friends for my F-5E and MiG-21 to play with. One minor issue though, none of the aircraft have a functioning Red navigation light... All of the others work perfectly. Any Ideas? DCS World 1.5.4 Going through the model viewer, it looks like argument 191 for the port nav light isn't bound to the model :(

Hell I'd be happy just to see her as an AI helping me out with my Huey missions :)

I've been thinking something along the same lines, that we could have a new model for cargo drops and paratroopers, but that of course required a 3d model... I'm pretty sure that the bailout call is tied to the 'death blow' of an entity in DCS as you can specify the pilot type for the bailout in any models lua file, but it's not tied to the actual model itself, only the object it calls. I've been rooting around with any and every lua I can think of trying to find out where the object spawn is called and haven't gotten anywhere yet, but I haven't given up yet!

Thanks guys, I have noticed that some of your skins Eddie, namely the airliners are spot on. We all really appreciate your efforts!

Hey guys, really looking forward to all the upcoming planes! Just a couple of things with the DC-3 though. 1st, I seem to get a distinct split between the two halves of the fuselage, it happens with all of the skins, some are more noticeable than others though. 2nd, in the dcs.log, it notes that there are some textures missing from the package; 00061.478 ERROR DX11BACKEND: texture "c47_fusoliera" not found 00061.493 ERROR DX11BACKEND: texture "c47_1_t" not found 00061.500 ERROR DX11BACKEND: texture "c47_1_t_bump" not found 00061.507 ERROR DX11BACKEND: texture "c47_1_t_spec" not found 00061.531 ERROR DX11BACKEND: texture "raf" not found 00061.537 ERROR DX11BACKEND: texture "dc3_bump" not found I've checked and re-downloaded and re-checked the package in the DCS User Files Section and they're definitely not there.

I personally however would like to chime in and agree that I'd like more civilian AI planes in the game to fill out an important role. They're needed to fill out our airports, Tbilisi & McCarren and there are only so many Yak-40's and AN-26's you can place before it gets repetitive. This 707 is a welcome addition, great job guys, now how about some Airbus, ATR's or DC-10's?

Interestingly, mine CTD's when using a monitor (for mission building), but when I use my Oculus it doesn't...

yep, popping in and out quite regularly for me, not to mention that them spinning when looking around in VR is quite nauseating!

Personally, I don't have an issue with scale of anything. It reminds me how small the Gazelle cockpit was!

The MiG-21 is one of my favourite pits with my Rift. I do wish that there was a pilot body as it feels odd without one (as do the other planes), but you certainly won't be disappointed. I've had no related performance issues, and the only 'issue' if you can call it that is that the sides of the aircraft (outside) have a missing texture placeholder, but this can't be seen from a normal seating position, I only noticed it as I was getting up when I still had my rift on.

I use Voice Attack with my rift, it makes things so much easier...! Once I'm in VR, I use a voice attack command to make DCS go full screen by issuing an ALT-Enter key stroke, this resolves the issue for me.

As NEWY says, make sure that your rift headphones are selected as your default Audio device in Windows AND in the Oculus application in the device settings. Mine work perfectly.

Not a major thing, but I noticed then I leaned over the side of my MiG-21 with my Rift on, that there is only a small part of the model there and textures are missing from it (Standard VVS Grey Skin). F2 view is perfect for these parts. I was actually standing up when I saw it to get out of my sim chair with my rift still on, so it's not normally seen.

YAY! :clap: Now all we have to do is figure out how to 'Arm' it with P51D mustang pilots and get it to Bomb targets with paratroops! Any way you Super heroes know of to make a weapon that would call the bailing out pilot shape?

I take it back, it's still FUBAR'd

+1, just implement the current Aircraft feature for Ground units, it works really well for planes

Please don't take my comments as negative criticisms, more critiques in a intentionally helpful manner :) I can honestly say that the work and efforts of you gentlemen and a couple of others is what breathes at least some life into the WWII aspect of DCS beyond pure dog fighting. I for one am incredibly happy with what you have produced (as are many others) and I've hosted a few sessions in Australia recently within our group hunting down the He-111's. We found the same issues that you mentioned above trying to get them to hold formation and shoot back and I tweaked the lua's of the ones that were using as I mentioned to only fire half of the available turrets. Still trying to get both happening at the same time ;) If there is anything we can do to assist you with testing these, we would be more than happy to do so and wait eagerly for what comes next!

Me neither, I've tinkered and played around, even going so far as to try and mount turret mount scripts from tanks and ships and haven't gotten anywhere. Just a suggestion, but for the time being until we find it, it might be worth reducing the amount of guns, and increasing the ammo count to simulate only 2 or 3 turrets being brought to bear on you rather than all of them as they have an unlimited field of fire.

Love the work you guys are doing on this, Next question, is there any way to create the guns as turrets so that only the guns on a certain position fire at you rather than all of them?

Are you running any mods at all?

Hmmm... The humiliation and scorn already poured upon me by my wife when I'm wearing my rift couldn't get any worse could it...? My wife already told me that when I fly in DCS with my Rift on I look like Stevie Wonder playing piano... Just without the talent, charm, money or dress sense! GIFSoup

And how am I supposed to lean out of the side of my mustang with my canopy open whilst I taxi if it gets restricted!

Mirage 2000C trim seems to be OK as well as the MiG-21

Previously reported in the Open Beta: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=169080 The issue is better than it was, and I'm not seeing parts of my Aircraft or its stores clipping, but it's still noticeable on the left side of the left view port for the terrain, buildings and trees I'm afraid :(
