Note , I noticed the sim runs better when the hangar model is set to nothing , anything you add in the hangar seems to drain resources as it will be there when you check f10 map so I did one of these dark and void , I'm in vr so every little helps lol  

Can you share how you did this? Thanks.

setup for use with ovgme , use 7zip to open and drag contents to wherever you have ovgme mods saved

if you dont use ovgme the path in folders is same structure as dcs install , you can overwrite the original file but i dont recommend this.

Mosquito in your  VR hangar.

Purchased the Mosquito module over the holidays and "borrowed" permanently, my sons Oculus Quest 2. Wow, what a game changer from using the head tracker. Used this forum extensively to help me understand the use of the DCS 3D modeler and the editing of the .lua script. The result is below if any of you fancy standing underneath the wing. I tailored the VR position and the crew arguments so that you can look up into the cockpit and the crew is looking in your direction.

Superb , yes you can set damage and everything  , great work . If only we could have a nice ww2 hangar as an option like il2 .

No worries , I'm tied up these days sadly as my 4year old daughter has a brain tumor and in hospital now , harrier should be doable though .

Outstanding!!

Now to just get Michael Palin as the pilot, and Graham Chapman as the co-pilot, and have a dialog play:

Palin: Please, sir, I'd like for both engines to remain on during take-off.
Chapman: Don't be such a ninny, you great gob spitting, teet-grasping, old goat.
Palin: We're gong to crash and die, sir.
Chapman: Oh, all right, you ninny.
Cleese (off in the corner, sitting at a desk): And now, for something completely different...

[mattjonesgr9]

I've now been able to swap to the Harrier in the hangar with my chosen livery but does anyone know how to remove the red FOD covers at all please ?

Awesome! Would something similar to this be possible with the Hornet?

[ienatom]

Hey guys, I managed to tweak and play with the CVN and plane models. I was wondering if there is any "Terrain" model that can be loaded to make a realistic ground level. This way for example I could make a WWII setup with planes parked on grass etc. Does anybody know if it can be done?

[Captain Orso]

In the script, you define what the ground object is. EG:

scene.floor = sceneAPI:addModel("shelter_floor", 0,0,0);

"Sherlter_floor" can be found here: c:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\World\Shapes\shelter_floor.edm. It's a simple model, 2d with no height.

With the shelter, that is also defined as and edm and set on top. You could do that with any number of objects, but I've heard that making the scene menu too complex could affect performance of the rest of DCS - just what I've heard.

Also, putting all kinds of 3d building all over is shooting quale with flak. You only ever have exactly one pov--unless you stand up and walk around your room and run into your walls o.O

I've though about how one might do this though with the least effort and performance requirement.

Setup a scene in SP like what you want in your scene menu. Stand in the middle and take screen shots in all directions.

Here's the part I technically don't know how to do, but I know could be done.

Create a wall model, simply a flat, vertical surface. Define these to be the four outer walls of your scene, so that you are basically in a box - a floor and four side walls.

Now skin the walls with the screenshots you took. You may have to adjust for parallax, but I'm sure that should be possible in a good graphics editor like Photoshop or GIMP.

Add some aircraft if you wish and off you go.

--

Afterthought, instead of 4 walls, make a cylinder and stich the screenshots to a 360° panorama and use that to skin the inside of the cylinder

Anyone tried changing the VR main menu "canvas" size? I'd like to increase it.

Just be advised there used to be an issue with the hanger taking vram - its the reason why most people dedicated on VR remove this and have a blank and black hanger - also the reason why people remove their WMR home if on a G2 etc. or steam vr home back in the day.

Anyone know how to customize the livery of fuel tanks? I have a Hornet with a custom livery loaded, and I can add the FPU-8 tanks. However, the livery has custom liveries for the fuel tanks, and I don't know how to add those.
