Dear Friends,

 

here is a mod I did in request of a friend (Flo) from my french virtual fighter team, some LZ Lights which can be placed every where on the map to create custom LZ for helos.

 

Be sure to check FORTIFICATION Tab in Mission Editor

 

2x versions are now available ! High & Low Intensity ;)

 

4 variants :

- Green

- Blue

- White

- Red

 

Version 0.2

 

Use with JSGME

Download for DCS 1.5 : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bzy06scTcPcnYnhyZlFFNjMzM0k/view?usp=sharing

 

For DCS 1.5 you must set Visibility Model to NONE :

GREAT!

 

I wonder.... can we turn the lights on and off during the mission by using a script?

That way maybe people could script funny stuff, like the Ball on a NOLF or something....

One idea would be make the lights directional and turn them around with the script.

 

Mmhhh, you can activate units via trigger I suppose,

for directional light, I am still wondering how to add spotlights to vehicule, AFAIK, it is not possible with current DCS.

Really great new mod Lilkiki I can see a lot of places where it can be used. For the directional light is there anything in the aircraft landing lights that could be somehow adapted? (thinking of searchlights and night missions)

 

Cheers,

What do you mean by "any type of helipads ?"

 

On the schematic I posted before, this rectangular surface marked 150mx60m is not a helipad, but it shows minimum dimensions for any field (can be a grass field in the middle of nowhere) used as a LZ to allow safe approach, landing and take-off of a 3 pumas helicopters flight in night time

WOW great Mod and awesome work !!!

 

It's a rich idea, I have a little question about the halo size, when I'm close of your light it's perfect but when I'm more far the halo is big, is it possible to edit you LUA file for changing the halo size or not ?

 

I would like to thank you for your work and your sharing, Skull.

Now wie REALLY need a transparent rectangle FARP Object!!!

I mean like a zone that enables a helicopter to refuel/rearm if landed!!! No more "FARP hills with four pads"...

I don't care if you need to put logistics to the FARP or not. Mission designer can take care of this, but please ED give us a "Zone-is-FARP" Condition/Trigger whatever!

 

Edit: or simply remove the EDM objects from the current FARP (invisible) and add them to the ME as a simple object, so mission designers can choose to put them or not, but still the area covered by a FARP is recognized as a rearm/refuel location?

I guess there is a dependency to the FARP list (names) as well as warehouse functions (storage database), but if we leave the original FARP area and just get rid of the FARP hill and the pads, that would enable lots of possibilities!

Hi Lilkiki.

 

How is going your spare time for a less brighter LZ lights variant?

 

The white ones i´ve tested are perfect for me.

 

Thanks in advance.
