MASSUN92´s ASSET PACK MOD -- DOWNLOAD IT FROM: HERE! - 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: For those that don't know, the mod is an asset pack with a wide variety of elements (statics objects and drivable vehicles) that are created with the idea of adding immersion to the sim. In the beginning I was modeling some stuff to create some FOB´s, but I add more and more elements related to airfields, FARPS and more. The mod receives updates time to time (depending on my interest to model a new stuff) and I am always welcome to petitions for some model (but to make it needs to interest me -- sorry guys but all these are related to enjoy the process for me). The mod is totally FREE, but the contributions always help to keep the development of the add-on. But what I prefer more than a dollar is to see what people make with the mod and maybe a good comment about it (or a constructive critic). - What is incluide on the mod? v3.0 (03/2024) Re-done of almost all assets - a lots of changes to write here. -- You will find almost all assets on: statics -> fortifications. Lots of them has liveries check them out! -- The vehicles that can be driven IRL, are drivable (CA needed) in the asset pack. You will find them on: ground units -> unarmed -- You will find the crew´s on: ground units -> infantry / and on: statics -> personnel -- All elements as _dst version. Feel free to put a GBU12 on any of the assets -- Some elements are removed from the asset pack and some other change their name. That will make incompatible with older versions. Sorry for that! -- Personnel and lights will no longer be supported on the main asset pack (I´m working on a new ground crew -- you can have a little snapshot of the progress with the drivers of the vehicles of the asset pack) ... BUT for the moment, I provide you with a second pack with all humans and lights. You will find two links to download stuff when you access to the content. -- Even better things will come in the near future. 2.3 (12/2023) Last update of the year!! - Hope all of you have a great 2024 All the new stuff is made to fit 70´s to 90´s look --- I´m waiting to use this stuff with the F-4E NEW! GSE NF-2 flood light - Statics that you will find it on fortifications with multiple liveries -- 3 types, one with the lights ON (note: I move some elements that should be on "deck & equipment" because for some reason is the only way to select multiple liveries for them -- so, they are on fortifications) NEW! GSE MJ-1 "Jammer" - Statics and drivable with multiple types and liveries NEW! GSE m32C-10c Air conditioner - Static with multiple types and liveries NEW!

On the Mission Editor you will find some new elements named: "M92_", all these elements are part of the mod. Some of them are located on the ground units - unarmed vehicles. That vehicles you can control them with "CA" if you choose "Player can drive" option. (I´m in the process of re-made some of them with super cool and realistic interiors for take some really cool shots for videos/pictures) You will find more asset on the "statics" objects. They are on the categories: "deck equipment" / "structures" / "personnel" If you don't want to populate every airfield on every mission you can create a blank mission, populate your favorite airfield, save it and use it like a templete (importing the enterally "mission" /aka templete to the new real mission). I recommend select the "hide" option to all the elements to avoid a lot of icons on your screen when you are creating a mission. - Things to have in mind: · Most of the first elements to be added are made without lods (level of details) because I wasn't able to make them work. So, I keep the vertices count suuuper low for all of them. The newer elements have proper lods, so the quality of the models is better, and the fps impact is less. I don't recommend adding hundreds of elements and don't expect some fps drops. You need to test on your machine the impact of the scenery. ·You can use "remove scenery" option to remove some buildings on the bases to add new elements to the airfields. ·Most of the models have their own destruction models... some other don't. I will add them "innn the futuuureeee". ·There are some lights that you won't be able to "see them" but they work at the night. Are very cool to illuminate airfields, farps and more. The main difference with the standard lights on the airfields is that these illuminates the exterior models of the airframes. But they don't illuminate the cockpits (limitations of DCS -- I don't test them on PG maybe with the new light system of the map they work there... who want to test it?). The direction of the lights matches the direction of the arrow when you place them. And you can download a Incirlik templete from the same page where you download the mod. · Some of the elements are not aligned to the direction arrow when you place them... sorry for that (rookie mistake) - Why opens a thread? I open this thread for a couple of reasons: First, I think that some people are afraid to all the stuff that are not on the forum of ED, so here we are. Second, I need proper feedback that gumroad/facebook groups don't bring it to me and I think that the mod can gain a lot of from the community interaction. Third, I NEED HELP! Time to time there is something that I can´t solve by myself and I know that there is some brilliant mind over there that can help me. - Analytics: (29/10/2023) · 14.130 USERS · Top 5 countries (users): USA: 3651 / UK: 1293 / Germany: 1242 / France: 973/ Spain: 677/ - NEWS!

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).
