Morkva_55 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 What happened ? Also will you update the F 14 for 1.5 ? F-18C mod - currently in the testing phase for DCS 1.5.1 F-14A mod - 3D model does not allow to use it normally due the cockpit glitch. No plan for a public update yet.

AG-51_Razor Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Really looking forward to that F/A-18C Mod Morkva!! It looks like the real deal. :thumbup: 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No plan for a public update yet. Thanks for that update Morkva. Been trying to get the F-18C for days and was just coming here to ask why I kept seeing that message. Appreciate the hard work you're doing and the communication as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morkva_55 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) FA-18 http://wings-of-russia.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=10370&sid=5820778844121099c0e8446b4399ecc6 REMARK F/A-18C added as NEW FA-18C (additional) plane and uses F-15 avionics and altered Su-33 Input settings. F/A-18C added as NEW FA-18A (additional) plane and uses Su-25T avionics and altered Su-25T Input settings. At this moment, there is no other possibility to make F/A-18 flyable with the working hook, aerial refueling and wing folding...

AG-51_Razor Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Morkva, is this Mod of the F/A-18C the same one that you posted the video of earlier where it was refueling with a Viking? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fogster Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) is there any easy way to edit certain parameters of mods? mainly, setting the speed at which the wings sweep in the tomcat? Edited November 23, 2015 by foou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morkva_55 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) It is possible via writing custom luaDevice which will set the necessary animation argument for aircraft external model. Also you need to synchronize these arguments via additional entry in the net animation list in the plane's declaration lua file. I can do it, but absence of a good 3d model for F-14 makes this attempt not worth the effort. Actually I can do nearly anything with external animation using ingame sensors data and custom system device. P.S. Find the author of VNAO models, convince him to provide the original 3D Max files, and then I can help you.

Einherjer Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Because the F-18a mod: The A/G capability is very limited - key bindings for EOS and LLTV are missing and only unguided weapons can be used. But it has the Su -25t avionic so it should be possible to use gbu and agm 65?! Or am I wrong? By the way - great fun to fly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptJodan Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Yeah, I use the F-18 for SEAD. I was kind of surprised because it looks like they included 2 pods, the ELINT pod and I think a jamming pod. Of course, there are 2 slots for jammers along the side of the aircraft anyway so an extra pod there didn't make sense. But on the A-7 they have the ELINT pod and the LLTV pod from the Su-25T. So maybe they meant to put the LLTV pod there (which would have given us the ability to fire mavs) but got the wrong pod? Just a guess. Another thing I noticed was how slow the top speed seems to be. I know the bug isn't very fast, but I couldn't get it to break the sound barrier at low level with a clean configuration. Doesn't seem terribly spry up high either. It's a minor thing because it's just nice to fly something with SEAD capability and the work done to make it able to air refuel and do carry work is great, so I'm not complaining. Still enjoying it! :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okieordie78 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I get confused on the wings of Russia sight, how do we install their mods? especially the hornet and a7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCPGrinder66 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 they are setup for jsgme so you just unzip into your _MODS folder, then use the tool to activate them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okieordie78 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Is the A7 compatible with 1.5.1 or is it only for 1.12? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeno426 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Is the A7 compatible with 1.5.1 or is it only for 1.12? UPDATE Bad news: - Since DCS World Beta 1.5.1 Update - all external lighting effects are... broken. Good news: - Cockpit position corrected, - Countermeasures declaration and position fixed, - Park brake system implemented (set throttle to idle and open cockpit), - Auto speedbrake retraction implemented (set gear to extend in flight and speedbrake will retract automatically - like IRL).

Still enjoying it! :thumbup: Ok got it working! The commands for the Eos are just excludet in the default.lua: delate the "--" before the parameter and it will work. Morkva_55: was there a bug? or why was it excludet? Mavs, GBU 10/12/16 works now. But there is no working LLTV Pod, and the lua for the weapon stations is cyptic, so can maybe someone with permission add the ELINT Pod to an station?

okieordie78 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Is there a certain procedure to fire weapons for the f18A? The TV pod unlocks targets too soon after I drop laser guided weapons. AGM65 (G model I think) just rolled to the left and blows up. I wasn't able to fire the AGM 85. The only thing I can successfully put on target are dumb bombs. It is fun to fly with though. Thanks!
