It works just fine having tested it 5mins ago: 1. Master Arm On 2. Weapons panel power switch on 3. Lift left RED arming switch cover up. 4. Left pylon arming switch to on (under red cover). Cheers.

Hi All, Here is a link to some textures that will work with the TACAN Beacon (Man Portable) TTS 3030. Download link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SAW0OVMCCIy5W68ZR26f3hrTxRaAuQqN/view?usp=sharing Simply download and extract the "TACAN_beacon" folder and place it in the following location: Your Name/Saved Games/Your DCS/Liveries If you don't have a "Liveries folder, create one. When in the ME select the TACAN Beacon (Man Portable) TTS 3030 in the Fortifications section. You will then need to select "TEXTURES" in the livery drop down menu and you will have a fully textured model to place. Here is an image of the final product: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3950226&postcount=5

The model .edm has been in sim for years now. I have added the old textures to the latest version and this is how it looks. It does not currently function as a TACAN in sim yet so it must be WIP...... I hope

A recent addition in OpenBeta:

In that case you have an incomplete download of the original mod. I would recommend a fresh download using the link in the first post: UPDATE 19/04/19 NATO GF Mod: Having completed that download myself a few minutes ago, as a test, it does contain all the files. Perhaps there was a corrupted download your end originally but that should be resolved with a fresh version. Cheers.

Sloping sides were considered and rejected for the following reasons: 1. We wanted a realistic mat and to push the bounds of what was not available currently in DCS. 2. Designed predominantly for use with the AV8B Harrier, for in the field arming and refueling. 3. As already mentioned undercarriage limitations of fixed wing aircraft within DCS. 4. It was designed to be able to build and join segments of mat to create STOL runways and taxiways in the field. Despite the nay sayers it does function quite well. (See below)..... Its not perfect but it functions as intended.

Hi, It is simply that the map mesh for all the maps is not ideal. There are undulations and raised invisible areas that result in floating or obscured model placement. Even areas that look completely flat are indeed elevated. I am afraid no level of modding that I am aware of, can currently rectify this issue. Hence the reason why ED FARPS have sloping sides to accommodate this issue. Cheers

Winter liveries are now available, with a link at the bottom of the first post in this thread. Cheers.

Like this.......:

I am afriad your statement is incorrect. During the 80s 4 Sqn Harriers (RAF Gutersloh) had the remit to operate from German Autobahns in the event of the break out of hostilities with the then Soviet Union. We also had the capability of operating from woodland hides in locations pre scouted in advance but required the use of AM2 mats as taxing and STOL platforms. Woodland operations were practiced during exercises at RAF Wittering here in the UK.

Looks to me like this is already work in progress......:thumbup: I personally feel it should go beyond just static objects as detailed below:

The location where you are attempting to place a roadbase are raised terrain areas, so until we get an improved map mesh, the mats will float. I have found the following locations suitable.....please see image below. Cheers.

Highways on both maps....seek and you shall find :thumbup:

The vanilla mission editor functions are more than adequate for a simple load and unload of troops as these two videos show. Hope they help. Cheers. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3725220&postcount=67 https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3566110&postcount=59

I have no issues with any airframes I have tested AV8B A10C Huey F86 AJ37 Spitfire P51D etc etc.

Absolutely yes......as with any mod the server and those joining must have the mod installed.

CTLD and setting up radio beacons is your friend in this instance. You will need to setup beacon zones and activate them. Or you could use this that I modified to suit my needs which is a CSAR script with sounds. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=222046

All things are possible with mods and a little effort :thumbup:
