MASSUN92´s Animated ground crew and lights MOD -- DOWNLOAD IT FROM: HERE! What a journey, right? As mentioned in today's newsletter (May 17, 2024), the asset pack will become part of the DCS core, allowing everyone to use the assets in their missions without needing to download anything. This does NOT include the animated ground crew and lights, which will still be available for download from the link above. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Before addressing some questions, I would like to thank all of you, the community, for your support and positive vibes. This achievement is also partly yours. On one hand, your support for the asset pack pushed me to make it better and bigger. On the other hand, I'm sure ED wouldn't have noticed the asset pack if so many people weren't using it and creating wonderful bases with it. So feel proud, we've achieved something fantastic! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - What's going to happen with the mod? I will continue developing content because I enjoy doing it. I love seeing what I create come to "life" within the simulator. According to my discussions with the people at ED, there's a possibility of adding more objects in the future, so feel free to leave suggestions below. - What will happen to the missions created with the latest version of the mod? As far as I understand, and I could be wrong, they should work fine WITHOUT the mod installed. - Will there be improvements? We have an agreement where I will make some minor future corrections to the models. Beyond that, I don't know what the future holds. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Who I am? Hi to all! My name is Patricio Massun, I'm a 3D artist and architect from Argentina. My job is mostly related to arch visualization and asset creation for renders. I use this mod to practice some lowpoly, game-ready, real time rendering technics. I use Blender for all my work. All the models of the mod are created entirely by myself and the textures are from ambientcg (old cc0textures.com). All the export process is based on the EDM exported made by Tobi and use the tutorials from Grajo (Without them the mod would not have been possible). - About the mod:

First post! Yeah me! I have decided to start my own thread here to put up all my static templates and miz files of the main PBs, FOBs and COPs for TF Helmand (The British ones mainly) and then the complete miz file with them all included in one place. This is a pretty big task so it is all a WIP. Completed TF Helmand_Nadi Ali - PB Pimon TF Helmand_Sangin - PB Pylae TF Helmand_Sangin - PB Tangiers TF Helmand_Sangin - PB Wishtan TF Helmand_Sangin - FOB Jackson TF Helmand_Nadi Ali – FOB Argyll TF Helmand_Now Zad – District Centre TF Helmand_Now Zad – ANP Hill TF Helmand_Gereshk – FOB Price WIP TF Helmand_Lashkar Gar – TF Helmand HQ TF Helmand_Lashkar Gar – FOB Bost TF Helmand_Upper Gereshk Valley – FOB Gibraltar TF Helmand_Kajaki - FOB Zeebrugge TF Helmand_Kajaki - OP Normandy TF Helmand_Kajaki - OP Sparrowhawk TF Helmand_Kajaki - OP Athens TF Helmand_Sangin Valley – FOB Nolay TF Helmand_Sangin Valley – PB Viking TF Helmand_Sangin Valley – PB Waterloo TF Helmand_Sangin Valley – COP Robinson TF Helmand_Upper Sangin Valley – FOB Inkerman TF Helmand_Musa Qaleh – District Centre TF Helmand_Musa Qaleh – FOB Edinburgh TF Helmand_Musa Qaleh – OP Roshan TF Helmand_Garmsir – FOB Delhi TF Helmand_Garmsir – FOB Dwyer (Already on the map so not sure what to with this one as it was the 105 gun fire base for support of FOB Delhi). And more to be added to the list…. Each of the FOBs will be recreated as close to realistic as I can possibly make them within the limits of the DCS Mission Editor, using my own and many other sources. They may not all date to the exact same time period or year either, but they will all be within 2006-2008/9 hopefully. Also I will not be using any mods so they will be accessible for all without the need to download anything else or increasing the chances of these being broken as DCS updates. If anyone has any ideas or wishes please do reply! Hopefully someone will get some use or enjoyment out of these! All of these templates are hidden. To reveal them on your map you will need to go to map options in the mission editor and unhide blue units! The first of many! TF Helmand_Nadi Ali - PB Pimon This is my new and improved PB Pimon as it has been resized to be correct, the last one was twice the size it should have been! Oops! The static template can be downloaded from here; https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3339481/

Hi everyone, At the moment, the airstrip at San Carlos is depicted as an FOB for STOVL aircraft. IRL (at least for the timeframe I think the the South Atlantic is supposed to represent), this is just a grass strip with what looks to be no services (there are some revetment looking things though): However, would it be possible for the assets that make up the current San Carlos FOB be present in the asset pack? Allowing us to create FOBs as desired (in conjuction with FARPs).
