  1. Looks like the normals, as well as the UVW mapping is messed up
  2. Yeah, I pretty much visited all US FOB's and Airbases during my 18 years there. I think the Northern part of Iraq is the most interesting, it's greener, and obviously before the Kurds shot themselves in the foot, by holding a referendum for Independence a couple of years back, they were 10 years ahead of the rest of Iraq.
  3. Heliports, same as Marez (Mosul) There's currently plans to bring Q-West back online as fully functioning airbase, with ATC etc, I used to work for an Iraq PSC and we took clients there to do the feasability study back in 2021/2022.
  4. You're still not providing much info for people to help. What aircraft are you trying to use on a carrier?
  5. places like this https://3dexport.com/3d-models/aircraft https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/watercraft?sort_by=newest https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-model/tank
  6. Lots of Naval aviation was used in Afghanistan during the War on Terror, my point was that ED are making a map of Afghanistan, when it's landlocked, and unless they encompass Pakistan, then there's going to be no carrier operations available on that map either.
  7. Ausies were based in Tallil, again never seen any on the flight line there. we had a compound on Tallil where we used to stay, now that's not to say they weren't there, most of the fast air was always staged in the HAS's (for obvious reasons) and used at night time, got to see a Kuwaiti F18 up close, real close, when I was on a Maritime contract out of Umm Qasr one day, when it flew over our vessel at tree top height !! We had allegedly strayed into Kuwaiti waters, and caused a massive diplomatic incident, as we had to USNSUPSALV officers on board Just checked, the RAAF Hornets were based in Qatar
  8. Remind me again of the water surrounding Afghanistan... Only land based hornets I seen in my 18 years in Iraq were Kuwaiti ones, never seen any operating out of Al Asad, Tallil, Baghdad or Balad, all bases I used to visit on a regular basis
  9. Scale is fine, I checked the measurements in MV, it's the Giant Pilot that is overscaled !
  10. Scale of the F8 looks off, or else it's a Giant inside the cockpit ?
  11. Yeah, it happens on the defaul Forrestal too, with their own F14's I'm guessing it's a bug, it's always one step forwards, and 3 steps back these days with updates !! The Supercarriers are fine, and face the correct way.. weird as feck ! @joey45 I hear you're the SME when it comes to runway luas and parking spots etc, is there anyway you can make a "parking spots for Dummies" to show.. 1. How you derive the coordinates for final slot ? 2. How you derive the angle faced on final parking ? 3. How you make the taxi routes from parking to Catapaults ?
  12. These cruisers are festooned with AAA, it's going to be pretty difficult to penetrate their defences lol
  13. Really looking forwards to more WWII stuff
  14. Without derailing TeTe's thread, can you possibly create your own thread, and explain a bit more, and how you chose the paths, the start/end points etc ?
  15. Just edit the lua to add the particular weapon CSLID onto the Correct Pylon, obviously you need to also have the weapons/base aircraft they cam from to begin with. I added the JAS Gripen Stormshadows to the default RAF Tornado GR4's for eye candy.. Then used Currenthills ones from the Ukrainian Su24M addon to have them actually work
  16. Buy the model for him and he might !!
  17. Don't think it was ever a feature to begin with, and doubtful it's something ED would consider, it's not like they can be unloaded by the same vessel, unless you use triggers and spawns, which then defeats the point of vehicle carrying ships
  18. Firstly there's more than ED's carriers out there, some don't have steam driven catapaults, there's also several aircraft that are prop/piston driven that are carrier based/operated, like the ones from the Cuesta brothers, so no, it's not a joke, it's a problem that's only started happening since the last update.
  19. I can concur, same issue, also never noticed the tail raise like that once hooked up before.
  20. I use the torps all the time I meant the Submarines themselves are more eye candy, especially modern versions that are supposed to be guided
  21. It's taken years for ED to have semi decent working torpedoes, and besides, even the current ones are dumb, line of site, and not guided, Anti Submarine warfare is still a good ways off, so all Submarines/Sub Surface vessels are eye candy only
  22. and it's not that great compared to what CH can make, it's a very basic model, I think the Mi28 N variants would be welcome There's also M1A1's and T90's in the game, but CH made his versions better. CH takes addons for DCS to a whole new level
  23. To be honest he's a very good texture artist, and has produced some very good realistic textures for the VSN F4 B/C, as well as some for Hawkeye's old Ka-52 alligator addon. That being said, he's incredibly rude, and has a very condescending manner when having dialogue with other modders especially novice creators, this leads me to believe English isn't his native language, constructive criticism is always welcome, rudeness and arrogance has no place in the forums
  24. Can't wait !!
