I am not a skinner, just an average user. But when I saw the request for specific Viper skins, I thought "hey that is an easy one, except for the Danish one these are all available already in great quality".
Having them made from scratch instead of using what is available appears a strange approach. To pick just one example - it is ironic that we have one livery artist, who's BAF skins are so outstanding, that the Belgian Air Force (the real one) chose him to design a special livery for their milestone jet (a real flying F-16). A livery, that was shown in aviation magazines around the globe. A livery that meanwhile even is available as a decal sheet so his name will be on scale models worldwide. But his skins aren't good enough to be even considered by ED as default skins and have to be created new by someone else? (no offense to the guy who was chosen!)
@Roughmaster @wolfthrower @Kerbo 416 even if ED ignores your skins, be assured, we the users know who you are and WE do appreciate your work and we will continue to use your excellent skins!The headline is "livery policy" not livery police!
Your comment is basically a slap in the face of everybody creating any form of content for DCS.Also don't forget about ED themselves using his work as the main screenshot for a news update Sept 2023.

Okay well either way, this one should work. Tell me how it works and if you can land on a carrier or not. If not then it's a waste I guess.

Any word back from anyone on whether this works?/ I'm also interested in Sabre carrier ops. My Pops flew FJ-4's, this would be close enough for me!!

Hello!!
I downloaded from User Files and am trying to launch from the application.exe in the v1.4 folder. When I clock on it to run it tells me I need to install .NET? Is that normal? -

ED have acknowledged this in the past and are working on it, but they've also stated that it's not a simple fix and they are still looking for a solution.
I use the WinWing and the video I assume you referred to is what I used so I can't help with how you need to set it up.
So someone did help me, it involves use of reshader. It is better but not perfect. I can't believe this has been a known issue for this long. C'mon ED!!!!
Anyways, thank you for the response.

Hi!
I have two CubeSim monitors for displays. I had some help and was able to get the exports to the MFD's, but I noticed all was not good int he Viper displays. In the Hog they are acceptable in daylight, too bright in game for night flying, and the Harrier and Strike Eagle are both very dim.
This isn't a new issue, I keep seeing it come up. I would like to ask is this something that ED will ever resolve?
In the interim (I'm optimistic ED will eventually resolve this) I'd like to ask for either help or tutorial info on how to create a UI mask for the exports. I know there is a Tube video showing how to do it on the WinWing, but it seems like it is specific to the WW monitors. I need something either universal or specific to the CubeSim.
Any help would be appreciated, I really want to get this resolved!! Thank you in advance!

Hello!!
I was wondering if you could help me with getting UI masks for a few aircraft or one aircraft as it seems per your post. If you have a video I could use that, but I don't use the WinWing MFD's, so the WW specific one wouldn't work for me. They are acceptable in the A-10 for me, but only for day ops, and I see that the current look is just trash for Strike Eagle and Viper, the other two I fly regularly.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you in advance!!

Have there been any skins added or made for this?

Hey man, this is incredible!!!! I stumbled across this trying to find a picture of a Tomcat panel for a friend. Happily surprised to find this forum. I've got it bookmarked now and am very excited to see how it continues. Mirage is a way cool airplane and I love flying it. Thanks for sharing this amazing project and it's progress with us!! ~Rob

Looks like you're right! I wonder why they chose to model the Italian ICH47 instead of the US version. Either way I think the cockpit looks way better in this version!
That thing under the chin looks like some kind of FLIR that can mount a TGP underneath it as well
heres a good article detailing the capabilities of the ICH47 https://www.army-technology.com/projects/ich-47f-chinook-multi-role-helicopter/
It's called a LOAM, and it is for object avoidance.

Good evening all,
I am trying to find some of the awesome liveries for the F-4B. I recently started flying it again and I lost my old skins. Can someone please post some links for me to grab them, or point me to where I might find them please?
Thank you in advance!

Interesting Idea..have to try that.
But how do you interact with the switches and knobs. F1 to hotas?
Yes, I also would like to know because I went Cubesim also and am in the middle of a pit build. Can't wait to be up and running again!

That would be my dream map too, Solomons. Black Sheep out of Munda and Velle LaVella. Attacks on Kolombangara. Deep strikes into Bougainville......
I also think New Guinea with Rabaul to the east would be a great map too. Lots of stuff around Goodenough Is, over the Owen Stanleys, big base at Lae.
Please please!!!

The reigning Reno Unlimited Champ is a Sea Fury.
Where are you getting that info? Voodoo has been crushing it since I went in 2015 and saw Strega take the Unlim Gold, Rare Bear #2. Strega won in 2017, Voodoo the next three years. I understand that Dreadnaught won the next three, but Voodoo has not competed. You are technically correct, although I would say three championships is hardly reigning (Strega and Rare Bear each have won twice that many), however I want you to remember the next time you say that a Sea Fury is the champ that Voodoo averages about 60kts faster per lap x 6 laps......quite a disparaging difference.
When I went in 2015 the Sea Fury airplanes in the fireld WERE impressive, it was incredible to see how a late war design could crush a stock Mustang, but it is not a plane that can beat an unlimited top dog. Sorry.

Fingers crossed for at least a 53!! Thank you for the responses everyone and especially Cobra. You guys rock over there at HB!! So happy it is you guys doing the module. I would have trusted BST to do at least as good a job as their Sabre, but the Viggen and Tomcat have both been homeruns and groundbreakers. Can't wait to see this module!!

Ah, ok thank you! And also thanks for the update on the guide! You're work to the community is invaluable!

I think because we're nostalgic about the first one. It wasn't terrible. Hollywood, sure; I read a quote by an actual Top Gun instructor and he says basically that anyone who acted with that kind of animosity would have been sent home because it's not in the spirit of the school to act like a child. Kelly McGillis is almost cringe worthy when I watch it now, but the story line wasn't awful and yeah the cinematography was amazing.
For certain the Goose's kid thing is crap. A Captain / O-6 who's been in the Navy for close to 40 years in a flying capacity is <profanity>. Also, I know O-6's make quite a bit of money, but not maintain your own P-51 money lol. Oh, and dragging out a Tomcat for the final scenes? Silly. How long would it actually take for a mothballed Tomcat to.....oh yeah, they broke the main spars in each and every one of them so none would ever fly again didn't they?
I'll watch it because it has planes. That's it.

Not trying to resurrect, but did anyone else notice the date on the latest update? Sept 2022? Chuck, how. Do. You. Do. It.
Thanks for the hard work!

I'm a little late seeing this whole set up. Does anyone know what, if anything, has been changed on these? I reached out to the manufacturer and was quoted starting at $1200. Seems like a lot but I'm also not afraid of spending money on my DCS habit. That said, I don't want to pay real money for something that will break on me in three or four years. Call me spoiled, but the CH gear that my newer controllers are replacing were all purchased in 2009, and all three of them work just fine still. Replacements HAVE TO last me at least that long.
Again, not purposely trying to resurrect a dead thread, just been away for a year and wanted any info before I throw money away!

I think I would have an "emergency" just about every time I saw a carrier.
You'd have an emergency alright....it would need new landing gear and probably a session or two on an alignment jig.

Warlord, will you be sharing your template with the community since ED hasn't gotten one to us yet?
-
Yeah, and oh is that their thing? There are no flying examples of a Dora or A8 with correct engines, nor is there a K that I am aware of. I say that with having not really been up on my crap for about 7 years, but as of when I was really following things this was correct. a Dora had been started for test running an engine but was not going to be flying, and Paul Allen had the only A8 with a correct engine and he also benched it some years back (2015?), so is there another one that ED used?
If that is their measure then ED is already making claims for stuff that they are going against themselves, and that doesn't seem likely.
