Two of my absolute favorite liveries. Nice! What are the chances of you finishing your "worn" Su-25 grey livery or doing a MiG-29 in the same current scheme? Great work!!

I hope not. Would be great to try out what you have so far!

Would love to know more about this...

I also found these guys recently... http://www.aerotronicsllc.com/index.html

Excellent, thank you for the reply!

I asked this in another thread, but also curious if Virpil has any intention of designing and selling an F-15/18/Harrier grip in the future? Would be interesting with all three modules available most likely by the end of the year

Would virpil ever consider doing a F/A-18/F-15/Harrier style grip for their systems? If I recall correctly, all three aircraft share the same stick or a close variation of it.

Stewart is where I'm based out of...

That's very promising to hear. Thank you so much for the reply!

Would that mean we could import X-Plane models to DCS, with the appropriate permissions?

This whole thread has been a fascinating insight into the process and intricacies of creating a module. Gives a whole lot more perspective to how and why things take the time they do, especially if you're creating things from scratch. I think many on this forum could benefit from reading the whole thread. I don't possess the skills to follow in your footsteps, but the nerd in me can appreciate the hell out of it!

Will the trains in the Normandy map be placeable like any other vehicle? It would be nice to center a mission around attacking or protecting a particular train and set up defenses accordingly. The trains and placeable sets that exist in a Caucuses are incredibly wonky, and because of the limitations of the mission editor, it takes hours to place one train. Additionally, one of my major gripes about the existing trains is that it takes an extraordinary amount of ordinance to destroy one train car, especially if it's an auto-gen one parked in a yard. Will this be audited and fixed so that train depots and parked units can be a viable target? -Sport

Very nice! A much needed model in the sim!

I have a type rating in the B-17, B-24, and B-25... does that count for anything?

YES!

Lol... looks more realistic than 2.5 Nice work Mustang

Curious, but does anyone know if the Su-24 mod is compatible with 1.5.4?

Actually... looks like the old lighting engine, but could also be 'HDR' wasn't selected in the second screenshot

To be honest I'm a little disappointed with the news lately. I first noticed the release date has been pushed from late April to late May. Further, I was hoping they would go into further detail on how the merge between the maps is going to play out. Something along the lines of "this is our goal, this is how we're trying to achieve that goal" would go a long way with the community. That being said, I'm also probably going to wait to purchase the new map/assets once they bundle it with an aircraft module, preferably the 109...

I wouldn't post his link as not to call attention to it or get him in trouble with the forum mods :smilewink: First post updated, I'll be adding more

Starway was working closely with ED to release his texture pack, and at one point was going to be released as an official mod. Donations for mod work are not approved by ED and should not be solicited. His deal was a one-off since an official agreement couldn't be met. What people do on their personal websites is their business, but they cannot request donations for their work on these forums... :music_whistling:

With the releases of the beautiful Russian equipment by VPC and Voc, I wanted to start gathering resources for a NATO equivalent. Post photos, diagrams, resources of ground service equipment we could use to populate NATO/Western airfields with to help bring a little more immersion, and life to the sim... While I'm slowly learning how to 3D model I'm not quite ready to take up the mantle of equipment creation. Hopefully someone else can give a hand. I'll update this first post with photos and try to organize as best I can. -Sport MUNITION LOADERS AND CARTS: MHU-83 D/E http://imgur.com/gallery/TYW0f MJ-1 C/E http://imgur.com/gallery/hKlSk MHU-110 Munitions Trailer http://imgur.com/gallery/sDNWM MHU-141 Munitions Trailer Patent Drawings: https://www.google.com/patents/US6935818 http://imgur.com/gallery/WBYvL FLTT (Flightline Tow Tractor) 1990 Dodge http://imgur.com/gallery/c43en 1997 Dodge http://imgur.com/gallery/vrEfl

Could we start a thread with all the NATO (and Russian I suppose) ground service equipment we'd like to see? Maybe someone will take up the challenge...

I suppose it does. Very useful in quick mission creation..

What I've been doing is creating all of the ground objects for an airfield as a single group to help simplify the number of groups in the mission. I'd like to see if I can activate an individual airport when a player approaches it, then deactivate once they leave, to also help with any performance issues.
