I've only encountered minor integrity issues on Open Beta 2.5.6, even with the edits I've made. Initially entering into a multiplayer lobby I have the green shield for good integrity check and am able to join any server. Myself and others have observed though that refreshing several times though the shield turns red and the integrity check is no longer valid. To fix this you just need to restart DCS.

Following the launch of the KA-50 Free Cockpit upgrade, I attempted to apply it and ran into several issues. 1 - First issue: AH-64 Cockpit exterior model clipped through KA-50 interior and was visible from the inside, covering the lower console switches and seat. 2 - Gun turret would no longer follow HSS and was unsteady, shooting all over the place. Both issues were corrected in various lua files due to ED Changing the default KA-50 cockpit physical location. These created separate model points that didn't align wit the AH-64 Mod. Here's the fix: To get the upgraded cockpit in the Apache, navigate to the same directory from the initial install of the AH-64 Apache mod when you pulled the KA-50's Bin folder, but instead pull the KA-50's "Cockpit" folder and copy and paste it into your AH-64_A folder and overwrite. Download the "DCS AH-64A Apache+ v.5" Folder from the Google Drive link below and install those files in the appropriate locations. You should just be able to drag and drop "Apache_A" folder included into your Mods > Aircraft folder and overwrite. If there are any questions feel free to reply here or let me know! #keeptheapachegreat https://drive.google.com/open?id=1LYGZjk3Sr55UvoOg6nEwaJVvetxi_3Oy

Thanks! Was hoping for an PSD Template but this'll have to work. Also managed to get the upgraded KA-50 cockpit imported into the Apache but I've run into an issue with the gun. I'm trying to isolate if the cockpit upgrade caused that or the 2.5.6 upgrade did. When I come up with a fix for that I'll post both here!

Anyone know where I'd be able to get a template of the texture for this thing? Been trying to find one to reskin it into a USMC skin. Thanks!

That appears to have done it. Your country thanks you for your service sir, you're a god send. <3

Long time lurker lookin' for some help. Long story short I'm trying create a 1991 Gulf War Camo for the UH-1H that you saw on a lot of UH-1N's and AH-1W's in the early 90's. While I have most of the colors themselves to where I want I noticed that the Huey's skin is a lot more metallic in color compared to the Cobra. This causes some of the colors to be off between the two aircraft, especially the "Ghost Gray" which almost looks like a chrome color in the sun. Anyone know of a way to change the texture to a more matte finish versus the metallic that it has now? Is it a Belsimtek issue or is it something viable through photoshop/dds conversion and MIP Maps?

Would love to see VMFA-115!

Harvest Hawk hype! Someone should definitely make a KC-130. I'd buy it. All of them, in fact.

Has there been any talk by any of the developers on working on a C-130 model? Something like say... the KC-130J would be extremely useful in my opinion, particularly in servers that run logistic scripts. Could also be useful in refueling friendly aircraft without having to run all those scripts for AI Tankers, as well as add another role for the game. More ambitiously there could always be an AC-130 but hey, I like the KC better anyway :P

Having an issue where loading RB-75Ts after using them and rearming they won't turn on, even after resetting power and controls.

I'm not familiar with the cold battery start, trying to look into it. Thing I'm concerned about most is the Ground Power. Not sure why that won't connect. I'll do the same exact thing in the other helos and it'll connect, but not the medics. I'll play around with it some more and see what I can figure out.

This is what I'm seeing on the map for the medic Huey. http://imgur.com/OoApzrz

Alright, I'll try that too, thanks. Gas Producer stalls at 10%. Same thing as before without ground power. Still unable to use ground power for the Medic slots in the FARP.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm trying to get on now to test it but because your mission is so well made the server is full again :cry: So now I'm twiddling my thumbs in wait :pilotfly: Edit: My apologies for jumping the gun. Got on, jumped in the first Blue Medic slot for the Huey and was immediately able to connect. Appears to have been a specific session issue. Thanks though! Second Edit: Okay I jumped the gun again. I was in the wrong slit. Whoops. Now that I'm actually back in the Farp Medic Huey I'm not able to connect ground power. Will attach screen shot in separate posts.

So a couple of Huey pilots and myself ran into the issue the other day where if you spawned on the blue team at the FARP as one of the medic Hueys, you were unable to connect ground power. Switching to the US DOS Huey I was able to connect, and switching to another spawn location I was able to connect. Due to the cold we were unable to complete start-up without it. I'll be getting on today to check this, and editing the post with the results.
