    @Hawkeye60 - numparking - I missed that.

    I really like the sound of that. I had not considered that way of doing it. A question. If you create it as a Farp you say you can spawn on it, does that mean you can spawn 1 x Helo or is there some way to add additional spawn points, say three of four spawn points and how do you tell the code where they are. This is a huge slab of concrete so one spawn point would get very lonely

    Simply adding a Liveries option was a much simpler solution, but I failed to notice it was an Airfield and Deck Equipment data line until I had done a couple of Liveries and realised there is no liveries option available there. I have changed my Mod to do that but its up to the maker to sanction the changes to his mod for others to use - I'm not diving into that bearpit again, I still bear the clawmarks from last time - sorry.

    Sadly more difficult than I thought, this platform is only available under the 'Airfield and Deck Equipment' option. It is not available as a 'Structures' option. The Airfield and Deck Equipment option has no facility within the game to add liveries, (but Structures does). To make this Livereis Mod work the Mod maker would have to agree to implement and add this to the Structures data list, and that is his choice so to do, not mine to make. There is no way forward until that happens, if it happens. Creating additional Liveries would be very simple to do I have already done a couple and they work fine but I had to butcher the Mod to make it work. Again not something I am going to release, other guys Mods are hallowed ground and 'there be dragons' !! Sorry.

    Something like this perhaps:

    Hmmm ... that should be easy enough to modify, or create a livery for it. I will see if I can do something with that.

    Running this Mod as AI it seems to be seriously underpowered. With a full bomb load it hardly ever gets off the runway, exploding at the end every time. It is suggested that it can carry 500lbs on each wing pylon plus 2200lbs on the centreline. I can get it to take off if I use a VERY long runway and a very light load (say 2 x 500lbs bombs), but the chances of getting this off the ground carrying anything more is nearly impossible. Given it was designed for rough airstrips that does not seem right. Is that just a limitation of the Mod AI and its being worked on, or is my information wrong ? (I did see these things for real in 1982 and they were flying off grass airstrips then, I cant recollect what they had slung underneath then except it went bang rather loudly when it hit the ground !)

    Yes, we have had that discussion and its appreciated many of the modern types produce very little if any smoke. Strangely enough I have served on a Brit type with gas turbines and when they flashed that thing up the sh*t coming out of the funnel had to be seen to be believed, but once it was up and running it was smokeless. Good point though.

    Many thanks Flappie, I hope they revert to the original way of doing it otherwise all ships mods are going to be 'no smoking' zones
  10. crazyeddie
    Check out one of the ED ship models to see how its done now. Older mods no longer have funnel smoke - that's a LOT of mods that are affected and I dont see an easy solution.

    is there a psd or a paintkit - Argentinian Navy ?
  12. crazyeddie
    There are a couple of tankers in the Beagle Channel that appear suddenly when your just about on top of them and disappear just as quickly again - very low poly models that were not there pre 2.9.
  13. crazyeddie
    Many thanks, will try that.

    Sorry, not ignoring you, been a busy few days with a couple of health issues that I have to deal with on a regular basis these days !. What is DDU method, I'm not familiar with that ? I have updated the driver in the usual way through Advanced System Care software that I use and no more game crash issues so far. An awful lot of stuff is not working as it did after 2.9, so I am slowly sorting that out as well.

    I went further back in the log and found this: I think this is the first crash I had today, this entry was repeated about 50 times !!

    Thanks silverdevil, I dont play online as such so my 'many' mods are not an IC issue. Most of them are simpler Mods, many home made for my own fun, so I appreciate that is going to cause issues. I found something else I had overlooked, I thought I had updated my Nvidia driver a while back, but didnt, so have caught up with that. Just before the crashes I noticed my pc was going into overdrive as it tried to do whatever it was trying to do, close the game down in most cases, that appears to have stopped, so I might be okay but I will have a look at that event log as you suggest.
  18. crazyeddie
    Still getting this problem, now at any time during the game. The StopCode error says it is Nvidia related. I managed to get a log this time, I dont know what I'm looking for so any help would be appreciated. The log file was too big to upload so I hade to zip it up - my game is heavily modified (It was working faultlessly until 2.9) https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/fmc91hgawq59kp16r5hg8/dcs.log.zip?rlkey=jqfwg5eqsfrjue370mto6rcxl&dl=0
  19. crazyeddie
    Thanks silverdevil, I will do that. I have had an issue with Win 10 updates recently which my local repair guy fixed, it might be related to that. I think your right, its a Windows issue, not a game issue. Many thanks.

    I cant get a dcs log from this error, it crashes my PC back to zero and no log is created. What I have noticed is that its only happening the first time I run a more complex mission immediately after a game update, and only sometimes, not always. Every time I run that mission again when there has not been an update, it works fine. Game update - Run the mission - Crashes Normal Load the Game - Run the mission - No problems.
  21. crazyeddie
    I'm getting this when I run a large size mission, can anyone point me in the right direction for fixes. It's only happening when I run a DCS mission, not at any other time. It's not happening on small missions with just a few aircraft involved. Device name Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6850K CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.8 GB usable) Device ID 727152B4-948B-4D79-86AB-B8B2B3FFA6A0 Product ID 00326-10000-00000-AA335 System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Nvidia GTX 1080 Windows 10 Version 22H2

    Go to your game folder - find the folder bin-mt, scroll down until you find ModelViewer2.exe - right click on that and create a shortcut to it, place it on your desktop - problem solved. The older version no longer works, you need this version.

    I never had a template, and I never created one, these were all drawn freehand. The URBI template came along later, and I can confirm it is excellent. I think this is it but I'm not sure, I did these a long time ago now. I dont think he will mind me passing it on. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/rp0z65yn2b6fkl5x6hzop/C-47_PSD.zip?rlkey=1pmk4z9f1blmj01yes9ppiyp4&dl=0
  24. crazyeddie
    Please dont apologise Urbi, your workmanship and help is always very much appreciated. I can see what the problem is now, and have started to fix my liveries. Many thanks again my friend, you have saved the day.
  25. crazyeddie
    A400M: Tried all the Liveries tricks I know, nothing is working. I'm guessing the edm will have to be redone, I dont know what's wrong.
