Hi Chaps, Well I am at a point were i need to do the lights on the landing decks along with the lights on the Alligator 1171 ship. Not sure where to start to be honest. I have modelled the lights and given them a basic texture, applied a Alpha to the light part but how do you get the lights to no look like a model and light up in the game? Any help would be appreciated Many thanks Sepcter

Made a little variant of the Alligator Landed the Gazelle on it no issues. Not really sure how to make it so you can start off any fly from the ship though. Any thoughts anyone? I did find in another mod GT.Landing_Point = {71.0, 16.26,-30.0} --{70.0, 16.26,-30.0} didnt work for me. Cheers Specter

HI Guys, A request if its permitted, would it be possible for ED to write a plugin for Maya as well as 3dsmax, this would, i am sure open up scope for more modding to be created for the already amazing Sim. Thanks (B/229) Specter

Hi All Modelling update: Thanks to Pikey who provided me with some images of the gun, I have finished modelling the gun and tested in game and it looks really nice, just need to apply some texturing and of course the dreaded UV Unwrapping lol Anyways here is a few pictures Thanks (B/229) Specter

Project update: Texturing is coming along nicly. Not far to go now...... Cheers Specter

Ship update:

aye, transfer attributes is a godsend :) Spec

Bit of an update, Managed to get the textures sorted which was a great achievement :) I did the animation for the ship, that was a mission and a half to work that out since I am a Maya user and not a max user :) I am just currently working on everyone's favorite, UV unwrapping :) here is the picture update so far :) I am also in the process of weathering the ship. Just finished texturing and detailing the life rafts Cheers Spec

Hi all, I have had to installed Max 2014 onto my system to be able to export the EDM. I have a major issue in that if i bring up the material editor (not the compact one, that works ok) When i move the mouse over stuff in the windows, its duplicating and i cannot click anything, like its artifacting. Any suggestion would be appreciated Many thanks Spec

Further update after some more detailing. Thanks Spec

Progress update: Just the gun to do properly, does anyone have any close ups of the 57mm? as struggling to find any with enough detail on the internet? Thanks Specter

Update before the Gym and then hopefully the Spitfire :) Cheers Specter

Hi Chaps, Pikey isnt around for me to get him to post the images so here is tonights work. Cheers Specter

Progress on the model so far, more detailing done on the crane, still to complete once i get some close up images at different angles. So far I have put around 12 hours into this model but I am pleased with the results. Thanks to Pikey for the research and getting me reference images when i shout :) Comments are welcome. Many thanks (B/229) Specter

Hi All I have hosted for our squadron for over a year now, within the last few months i have been having issues with peoples DCS crashing when they try to join the server. Tonight we ran a Vietnam mission and a few people were trying to join but getting so far and the client crashes on the loading screen. Some people have to try 4 -to 10 times before they got in(there was only 3 other connected to the server at that time non had a ping higher than 180ms ) Can anyone suggest anything that could be an issue. I am pretty sure its not my connection as i have 200M down and 20M up I had one of the chaps send me his log file and crash files which i have updated to this post. Thanks Crash.rar

thanks Chromium on the DCS folder - > Properties - > Security I added my user to have full control and that has done the trick. Strange one to be honest as its a default install of windows 10. I am a happy bunny now :) thanks for the assistance Cheers Spec

OK, I have just run another test, Completely removed DCS World LIVE from my machine Removed: C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World - folder C:\Users\Mithandra\Saved Games\DCS - folder re-installed DCS from the web site Installed all the modules i own launched DCS with DAWS enabled and tried to start a multiplayer mission - Same issue checking the logs i see (from a default install i am getting the following errors in the logs Line 266 of ./MissionEditor/modules/mul_create_server.lua is

Hi This is a re-recording of exactly what you have done - still doesnt work. https://youtu.be/G-jjv3HEGI0

Hi Mate, i tried the repair before hand with the mod not enabled and that didn't work either, i must admit in the video i forgot to remove the mod, but as i said that is the second repair i have done with DAWS added and removed. still makes no difference what i do. Chromium is going to provide a debug version, hopefully that will shed some light on this, Tony is running 1.5.5 with the mod enabled and thats working, i just dont know what the hell is happening here and there is nothing in the logs to point to the cause mate Cheers Spec

Hi Chromium, Tried that and it didnt work, I have put together a video of the process and the problem hope this helps. VIDEO LINK

I have had the graphite ones for a few months now, they will be the last pedals you will ever buy :) Excellent precision and control within DCS :) ++++++1

thanks Chromium, appreciated

I just updated live to 1.5.5 and removed all mods apart from DAWS and tried in Live, didnt work, wont let me click the start button to launch a multiplayer mission, any help here would be great as I am supposed to be hosting a mission tonight, the start of the perpetual campaign many thanks

Hi Chromium. I have done some further testing this evening. A friend of mine wrote the mission in 1.5.5 OB and also has DAWS installed and working in 1.5.5 OB When I have DAWS enabled in JSGME and try to launch any multiplayer server i cannot no matter what i do press the Start button on the screen you select the mission If however i disable DAWS in JSGME i can run any mission in Multiplayer. I am at a loss why this isnt working. Thanks Mith

Hi This is with any mission, if the DAWS mod is installed then the view i get is attached, i remove the DAWS mod with JSGME and load the exact same mission i its perfect. Cheers
