Sorry to hear that, but the download is still there and available in my Google Drive. Nothing has changed with it since the last update.

Google Drive seems to be throwing an odd "Oops, there was a problem with the network" error but it then presents a download button after a couple of seconds. Try again...

Here's a combined package I put together for the 229th. Seems appropriate for the time of year. This pack contains; My Villages mod Rock welders trees T. Jacobs High detail grass textures T. Jacobs seasonal noise texture New base level winter textures (prevents seems) New quick City textures for winter (they're a real quick hack) Barthek's Mountain textures (for Summer and Autumn) Link removed ~ Outdated Merry Christmas!

I have the same error with the same version (1.2.12.34915) trying to detect a cargo unit being dropped off into a zone using standard in game triggers and zones Type; Once Trigger; Unit inside Zone Unit "Cargo-1" Zone "Resupply" Action Message to All "Cargo delivered" I drop the cargo off in the zone ( wrapped in cotton wool so it doesn't break ;) ) but do not get the message on screen.

Thanks to Flagrum that helped me spot that Force Feed Back had been turned on by default in my new clean install of 1.2.12.35194 and that was stuffing up the trim in THIS POST

You sir are a modern day hero. I can't believe that I missed that one little setting. Problem solved, happy pilot again!

Haven't looked at that, I'll give it a go. Thanks. Planes all work fine.

Since installing a new clean install of the latest version (1.2.12.35194) my Helicopters wont trim. I first noticed it in the Huey when the button that I have mapped on my stick didn't work and I simply thought that I had missed a mapping, but after checking that I tried the default 'T' key but nothing happened. Whilst flying the Huey, I can see the trim button on the virtual cyclic being pressed when I press any of the buttons or keys assigned to the 'Pilot Trim' command. I don't use central position trim mode, although I turned it on and tried it to see if that makes a difference but it doesn't. I'm not running any mods, I've run a DCS repair, I've deleted the UH-1H input folder in my saved games directory, I've even removed the entire Huey module and re-downloaded it then re-mapped all of my controls and still the trim wont work, I've also mapped completely different keys as well, but nothing... After getting frustrated with the Huey, I fired up the Mi-8 which also wouldn't trim and then the KA-50 and that wouldn't trim either! Other friends at the 229th that have upgraded from an earlier version to 1.2.12.35194 aren't having the issue and they all work ok... Sorry, meant to make the title 1.2.12.35194 trimming problems

Any ideas guys? Edit: Completely lost now, it seems neither the Mi-8 or the KA-50 will trim either... Fixed wing aircraft work OK

Correct, this just modifies the textures for the Towns and Villages but not the Cities or the other terrain textures.

So a complete clean and fresh install of 1.2.12.35914.574-371 resolved the issue for the most part. The only issue is that the server that I could connect to last night (AEF) causes DCS to crash today, but all others that I've tried work perfectly.

No mods at all, all removed via Jsgme and a docs repair run. We (those of us experiencing the issue) know that plenty of people are running fine on the new version, such as two guys in the 229th that I was trying to connect to last night, but it does seem to be an issue for some. The only thing to has changed since it was working was the small update that I did from 1.2.12.35914.571 to 1.2.12.35914.574 which the other two guys in the 229th that are working are also running.

I've run into this problem tonight since upgrading to 35194 as well, single player works fine, I can join some servers (AEF for example), but many other servers load the mission and I'm dumped out "Connection interrupted" and confirmed that all of my friends servers that I cannot join are on the same version as me (35194.574). Tried repair which hasn't helped, downloading the full installer to try a completely clean version now. Looking through the dcs.log there aren't any errors when I get dumped that aren't present when I join a functioning server, except it just shows "INFO NET: Client has stopped"

Good job on the skin, looking forward to many more!

Oh well, it was worth asking... When my BS2 upgrade key expires I'll ask when I log the ticket to get more activations, I think I only have 1 more activation left anyway and I'll use that with DCS 2.0 I guess...

Can I please request on behalf of all owners of BS 1 and the upgrade to BS 2 that we have our activation keys revoked for these products and that ED issue us a new key for BS 2. I know this may be an inconvenience for ED to co-ordinate, but it's a damn site less inconvenient than it is for those of us who have to re-install BS 1 every time that we want to do a fresh install of DCS. I know it's supposed to remember the key, but every time that I've done a clean install since around 1.2.6 I've had to jump through these hoops and the last time I hadn't even uninstalled BlackShark 1, it was still installed and it still wouldn't activate my upgrade!

I ran DCS with DSR and it was great. In fact it made me realize that my rig could easily handle running games in 4k and so I bought a 4K tv...

If you want a hand with packaging a JSGME mod for this, if be happy to help.

First off you're going to need to get an image editing package like GIMP which is free and runs on both PC & Mac. Next you'll need to download the tga and dds plugins from the GIMP site and install them into GIMP. Then you'll need to get the image you want to modify, the MiG-21 ASP block in this case from Mainstay's mod and then open it in GIMP. From there it's a case of finding an image you'd like to superimpose over the top (Missile engagement chart, Take off / landing speed reference, favourite Russian bikini model, etc). Finally, you need to export that image as a DXT5 DDS and then replace the one in game. Sounds fairly complex right? It is, but you get used to it and keep practicing! Soon you'll learn how to work with complex layering, transparencies and specular maps and you'll become addicted to re-texturing everything you see in DCS!

Great boat :) I have missing textures on the two small machine guns though

Me too! Finally took the plunge and got the 65" Panasonic and it is simply amazing.

Unfortunately there isn't. This drove me nuts when I was making the village textures :(
