FYI, if you're referencing this thread regularly to keep a set of cockpit mods up-to-date, my cockpit mod for M-2000C has been updated for the latest open beta/stable (0.86). This is the version now available from ED's download site.
NTTR still requires version 0.85 due to lua structure differences. Links to both are in the thread.
You need to be way more specific.
Which skin are you installing? Where did you get it? Is it designed for JSGME? Does it use the 1.2 or 1.5 file layout?
Which version of DCS are you trying to install the skin into? stable, beta or alpha?
mostly true.
Early access to the C-101 and the Hawk came with SFM, which is what the AI uses.
Both are getting EFMs at some point, Hawk should be very soon.
I know everyone's super excited, but there's just a half dozen of us or so ham-fisting our way through our first aircraft mod in our spare time on nights and weekends.
With the hours I've put in so far relative to the visible progress (and I'm not even the modeler!), i'm ready for Leatherneck or Razbam or someone to launch their A-4 so that I can just throw money at them for a finished plane.
Note that IRST can and will detect you when your radar is off, especially if the russian pilot knows where to look.
A good pair of mk 1 eyeballs is also invaluable.
btw, I was speaking to uboats, and he just updated his application to allow numeric sorting. =P
Should make it easier to align to the argument list document.
holy crapola... 1GB for the paint kit
edit: 2.1GB after unpacking
I think browsing your template taxes my PC more than DCS does. The level of details is insane... photoshop is showing 3.5GB used.
Please let's keep comments about other devs out of this thread.
Our updates look good because we're in the easy phases. Modeling and texture workflows are well understood, with plenty of forum examples. Once we start finalizing the plane's systems and push the limits of what we can do with an SFM, then you'll inevitably see us slow down as we run into the challenges that every other studio has faced.
Turns out my download of 1.5.3u3 went quicker than expected and I was able to fix it during an extended lunch break...
Please use this version (0.86) for 1.5.3 update 3:

I'll update the main download site after stable and/or NTTR get it.
FYI, my English cockpit's LUA code is incompatible with today's beta update to the M-2000C. I expect to have it fixed by Monday evening USTZ.
Sorry for the lag.
