uboats Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) Motivated by many stunning Caucasus Texture mods, I made this Caucasus Terrain Texture Switcher Mod. It allows players to keep all his/her favorite texture mods under different seasons, but enable preferred ones on-the-fly without tedious deleting/copying/pasting operations It's JSGME ready! 中文帖: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2798237 It works similar to my previous Customized Cockpit Texture Mod. You need to put a proper description.lua file in each customized terrain texture folder (those folders can only contain dds files) . Download from Here update v1.5: for ob 1.5.5 fix v1.4: for ob 1.5.4 with caucasus icon captured in Wags video v1.3: restore land_texture, and building texture options v1.2: fix missing texture issue (temporarily disabled land_texture, building, and maptexture options) v1.1: quick fix for missiong options folder Install Mod: 1. download the attachment, and unzip it 2. move the 'Caucasus Terrain Texture Switcher' folder to your JSGME mod folder 3. enable the mod via JSGME ** below steps are critical as well ** 4. enter '\Mods\terrains\CaucasusBase\vfstextures' folder 5. put customized texture folder here, e.g. autumn_by_xxx, springother_by_xxx (you can give whatever name to the folder) 6. unzip the 'tex_description_lua_pack.zip' in the attachment, you will get 11 lua files (e.g. LandTexture.lua, LandTextureSpring.lua etc) 7. copy/paste desired lua file to corresponding customized texture folder, and rename it to 'description.lua' e.g., 'autumn_by_xxx' is for LandTexturesAutumn, so you should copy/paste 'LandTexturesAutumn.lua' to 'autumn_by_xxx', and rename it to 'description.lua' 'xxxaaaxx' is for Buildings_textures, then you should copy/paste 'Buildings_textures.lua' to 'xxxaaaxx', and rename it to 'description.lua' 8. Start game, and in Options->Special->Caucasus, you can decide which texture to load in game, respectively Edited November 8, 2016 by uboats 3 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My DCS Mods, Skins, Utilities and Scripts | Windows 10 | i7-4790K | GTX 980Ti Hybrid | 32GB RAM | 3TB SSD | | TM Warthog Stick | CH Pro Throttle + Pro Pedal | TIR5 Pro | TM MFD Cougar | Gun Camera: PrtScn | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uboats Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) v1.3: restore land_texture, and building texture options the texture id are numbers, so all customized must be appended from the end of default. I inserted some customized from middle which caused missing texture issue Edited June 2, 2016 by uboats [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My DCS Mods, Skins, Utilities and Scripts | Windows 10 | i7-4790K | GTX 980Ti Hybrid | 32GB RAM | 3TB SSD | | TM Warthog Stick | CH Pro Throttle + Pro Pedal | TIR5 Pro | TM MFD Cougar | Gun Camera: PrtScn | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uboats Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 [MOD] DCS Caucasus Terrain Texture Switcher Mod Hi, I used version 1.3 for your mod but I still only get "default" textures to select (see screenshots). Any idea what I did wrong? First, those must be folders, so please unzip starway's texture zip files Did you put proper lua file to each folder? You can find lua files in the zip, also read instruction again Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My DCS Mods, Skins, Utilities and Scripts | Windows 10 | i7-4790K | GTX 980Ti Hybrid | 32GB RAM | 3TB SSD | | TM Warthog Stick | CH Pro Throttle + Pro Pedal | TIR5 Pro | TM MFD Cougar | Gun Camera: PrtScn | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_soupdragon Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Wont the folders we have placed in the vfstextures folder be removed after an update to DCS world? If so this will mean recopying the folders back into the folder after the update. Cheers SD [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
