pylon angle modyfier (without connectors)
Oban replied to tripod3's topic in How To Mod for DCS World
I don't think you can, unless you do it within the 3d software that it was made on. -
It's only been out for a year tomorrow, and even back then its release was an internal bun fight between ED and Razbam, I don't recall it being on sale either. The F15E is turning out to be a bit of a poisoned challise

I used to think that the ArmA community was toxic, but the DCS community is like "Hold my beer" The damage done and the division within the community is irreparable IMHO, you can please some of the people some of the time, but can't please all of the people all of the time. I've been part of the DCS party since the good old flanker days 29 years ago, and it pains me to see the toxicity here, and I cannot see a happy ending here, the damage done, and that continues to be done, will take months, perhaps years to fix. Will it stop me from continuing to enjoy DCS world, not a chance, there's still plenty to offer, which some folks tend to forget. If I dislike something or a game that much, I delete it, get a refund (if available) and move on, I don't keep harping on about the why's, and spread negativity about it, even though some may feel it's justified. As much as these threads start off as being informative, they inevitably turn into a bun fight, with " he said, she said" and a mind that is closed will never be open, and never ne able to think outside the box, and at the bigger picture. Opinions are fine if they're healthy, but if they're toxic, with the intent to stir up emotions, then they should be "moderated" accordingly. It's a very dark period in DCS history, I hope things will improve, but they are going to take time, and a massive amount of patience and understanding, of which there seems to be a shortfall amongst some individuals. As a consumer, I'm not angry, bitter, or overly frustrated, I'm too old to let these emotions consume me, I'm dissapointed that this great community is eating itself. Life is too short, Carpe Diem, enjoy what you have at this moment in time, and have a wonderful weekend.

[SOLVED] strange pink ghost light, where does it come from
Oban replied to grim_reaper68's topic in 3D Modeling for DCS World
Max ! I've watched skatez video's I've sussed out the Nav and strobes, but the landing/taxi lights... not so good. -
Interesting... in that case, in your expert opinion, is there a positive outcome in all this for the end users?
-
You're missing the point, they're not speaking on behalf of Razbam, they're voicing their personal opinions, and those opinions are probably not helping Razbam in the long run. Unless it comes from their spokesperson, then it's hearsay. I'm also willing to bet that neither M2M, CaptSmiley, yourself, or AFNAV are in possesion of the terms and conditions of the contract between Razbam and ED.
-
The thread is about the whole situation between Razbam and Eagle Dynamics, the F15E is just a side topic.
-
Now that IS very ominous.

[SOLVED] strange pink ghost light, where does it come from
Oban replied to grim_reaper68's topic in 3D Modeling for DCS World
Is there an idiots guide to setting up spot/landing lights anywhere? I too have the hideous purple light, tried the connectors, and the args, edited out the line's etc but still shows -
A very ambigious post.. Is it in your module manager ?
-
Did you select yourself as "player" ?
-
I'd love to know who this "We" are, and also what illegalities to be exposed, seeing as he's in posession of the terms and conditions between Razbam, and Eagle Dynamics...
-
A dishonest money grab ? , you would have to have access to ED's customers sales in order to see how many modules are being sold on a daily/weekly/monthly basis. Out of those sales, a % would go to razbam ( eventually), if ED make 20-30% ROI on modules, it's not enough to be substantial, and by the time that goes through the various overheads, it's not much of a money grab. Given that this situation has a serious effect on the said modules, I think you're clutching at straws with the term "money grab" here. There's also contractual obligations between both parties outstanding, despite the grievences, that are still in effect. If Razbam ask ED to remove those modules, as they're dead, and never going to be updated, then yeah, ED will remove tham, at present, it's a status quo, and negotiations are still ongoing.
-
LOL, and how many times do you have to be told the same thing?
-
This screen was before I checked as to which shops were batch 3's Batch 1.. only if I can find a decent model, then yeah, there's not much difference weapons wise (sans Phoenix CIWS) @Northstar98 yeah radars are noted, It's what was on the model.
-
Oh the weekend corporate law degree is over?
-
Oh that's an awesome quote sir! I also like "assumptions are the mother of all f**kups"
-
Try not to take it personally, it's the internet, there's no doubt that passions and frustrations are high, as are expectations, it's the nature of the beast sadly.
-
LOL, this thread is full of people having meltdowns, it's what makes it last 93 pages, the entertainment is priceless.
-
And why do you feel they have to substantiate anything publicly especially within the court of public opinion, of which we're all participants ? You keep dismissing that it's almost guranteed that ED have been advised by their legal team to refrain from anymore public posts. You don't have to have a court rule on that, it's just common practice, less said, soonest mended , and prevents words being twisted and disterted in order to provide a narrative. Neither party gets a free pass in this mess.
-
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. Freelancers indeed, so why is it down to ED to pay them? It's down to their client, there's nothing condescending about it. I already said their pay could be related to performance bonuses, and that will come down to their employer, not the client. In reality, you don't have anymore of a clue, than anyone else here.
-
Exactly, nobody in a technical capacity works for free, nobody knows what the individuals salaries were, and what the wording in their contracts states. Even SME's will have some sort of contract, if they don't, and it's not all transparent, then who's to blame for their unfortunate predicament?
-
No, my reading comprehansion is just fime, salty are we? There's plenty of mentions about the radar being malicious within this thread, if you've been following it. It's called observation, stop being so salty.
-
They don't, but it wasn't the last update by ED that broke the radar. The radar failed 7 days after, there's no connection at all.

Having been involved in, and privy to remuneration disputes, most of my colleagues involved couldn't wait to berate their employer and call them all sorts of things, citing the clauses in their contracts of when remuneration should take place, even within the first 7 days of late payment, by the time it reaches 30 days late, the barrack room lawyers again start citing legal action, and threaten to walk off the project. After 60 days of non payment, they aired their grievance with the client, who then asks "why" too. Some take their case to their lawyers, who then ask the same questions. After 90 days of non payment, and things don't look like improving, and savings have been eaten into, they terminated their contracts, forfeiting all pay, and put it down to unresolved and unreconcilable differences, which in turn made the company no contractually compliant due to the loss of 30% of the manpower, which in turn was a further breach of contract between the company and the client, who then terminated their contract, resulting in EVERYONE losing their jobs.. This all heppened in the Middle East, where there was no legal infrastructure in place where workers were protected. When it comes to salaries, everyone has to look after their own interests, and self preservation kicks in. The terms and conditions of your contract in places like the USA and UK, are legal binding documents, and you are protected by various work laws, in this case, AFNAV's colleagues would also be afforded the same protection
