Hi Oban, I'm not at all an expert here, and don't have the expertise to create a specific thread for this. I've been using a lot of trial and error cycles... The routes and parking spots are clearly your choice, with respect to the obstructions on the deck, e.g., the carrier island end the elevators limits. The Model Viewer is a good tool here to help. The other point is that you must take into account the size of the aircraft, I.e., an A-4 is much smaller than a F-8, etc. When they turn on the deck after landing, their wing tips must not interfere with the obstacles. Also, you must define your parking spots first, and then your routes to the cats. And conversely, the routes from the end of the landing area to the parking spots. There are numbers of photos and comments on carriers and the DCS Super Carrier Mod to help design the correct parkings configurations as IRL (see screen attached). As far as I know, the real expert here is Joey45 Enjoy !

Indeed, this is a very neat tool, once you get yours hands on it. The learning curve is quite steep, in my opinion, because there are so many options and features. But it's very powerful. I confess that I'm far from being an expert when using it

Hi davigt, As far as I remember, because this Rafale uses the FC3 Mig (?) HUD, you don't get any range info. Also, the LA is not set, you have to trigger it manually. There is a keybind for this in the commands. I may be wrong on all this, but I'm not an expert at this otherwise very nice aircraft. You might ask on Discord, where there are several dedicated channels, including some for another Rafale Mod, which uses the more advanced F-18 cockpit. Enjoy !

Hi Buur, you can check these points using the DCS Model Viewer, option "CarrierRouteManager". The 8 parking slots in the screen below are mine, not the most recent ones. They free simultaneously the landing deck and the forward catapults for combined air ops. Enjoy !

Look in your log file, and search for any ERROR message. That should help. Enjoy ! -

Sorry CH, the discord link does not seem to work.... Nice shot ! I didn't know that Crusader livery. Is it available somewhere ? Thanks Urbi ! -
Hi, Sorry, this has nothing to do with the Rafale, but with the F-8 Crusader and the R-91 Charles de Gaulle I coudn't find the right place to share these screens. You can find an updated version of the F-8 here : https://tetet.de/dcs/mods/vwv_F-8.zip Thanks Hawkeye for his hard work on this F-8 Mod ! The magic of DCS is operating once more... Enjoy !

Hi, As posted previously, ED will argue that they can't take into account the myriads of existing non-ED Mods, not sure they could even list them all. That's correct. Also, they said that OB releases are what they are qualified, i.e. Beta, meaning that there might be unknown bugs, and known issues. And there are a number of them, obviously. However, in those circumstances, it would be fair from ED to provide the users with the ability to revert back to a previous version. And there is another final option for us, that I always use for myself, it's not to upgrade immediately to the latest versions. Considering the number of bug reports I read, I'm quite satisfied to run OB 2.8.8, without any particular problem. This means that I'm at least 4 months late compared to ED's roll-out program, but I can happily spend my time on more important aspects of DCS : improving existing Mods, without wasting hours trying to upgrade the Mods one by one to conform to the lastest version. And I confess that, considering the current situation, I'm not near to upgrade to 2.9. My two cents. Enjoy ! -
Hi Seabat, I'll be pleased to test your new helo parking spots, very interesting and realisitc, indeed the last TeTeT update for AI A-4 landing and parking on the CV-31 seems fine. Did you use it ? Enjoy !
-
Are all these static aircraft ? I couldn't land the SH-2 helo as AI, where it stands in your pic.

Hi, Admiral189 has a very good Type 23 for download, here : https://sites.google.com/view/admiral189dcsworldmods/warships Enjoy ! -
Thanks Hawkeye !
-
Yep, hopefully Hawkeye has the expertise to put it back in service for us...
-
Excellent news ! Thanks ! I have problem with the above livery, which produces for me a bizarre mix of the US and French liveries... OK for the helo Mods. Looking forward to see them on board ! A Pedro is needed fotr the CV-31 !

Hi Hawkeye, any pointers to the vintage AI Navy helos available ? Thanks ! Below is a screen with 6 A-4 parked after landing, and 4 static F-8...

Hi TeTeT, there is a F-8 Crusader Mod on Spino's site here (at the bottom of the page) : https://sites.google.com/view/spinossimulationsite/dcs-world/mods/ai-only-aircraft-mods?authuser=0 But it' rather eye candy : no hook, doesn't align on the cat, doesn't trap, etc... Merry Christmas !

Hi Hawkeye, are those helo Mods public ? Can we dowload them somewhere ? Would be nice to have them on the carrier Thanks !
