Many people have noticed certain mods not working now so thought I would post as been asked a few times today by friends.

Everything was working fine for me after the DCS World update but after upgrading to Flaming Cliffs 2024 most of my mods stopped working, listed below the ones I use. I know it's related to Flaming Cliffs 3 and have seen people posting thats needed for the mods to work, but the original FC3 is no longer available, its either the 2024 upgrade or full version. Just thought I would mention the mods I have got that are not working in the FC 2024 update at present, in case someone spends a load of money only to find their mods still don't work. 

VSN Aircraft

AV-8 Harrier
Eurofighter
F-4E Phantom II
F-22A
F/A-18F
Mirage 2000

Spino Aircraft

F-15EX Eagle II (built on the VSN_F15_AA)

CubanAce

SU-57 Felon (I don't fly this was just used for Top Gun missions so works fine as Ai)

All the mods that no longer work still load but are not flyable but can still be used for Ai.  

Mixed Results

The VSN F-16A (C52) is mixed, think due to various cockpits so the F-16A, F-16A MLU and F-16A BL50 no longer work but the F-16A BL52D still works fine as it uses a different cockpit.

The VSN F/A-18F is mixed, the normal F/A-18F no longer works but the F/A-18F AG works fine as uses a different cockpit.

The MQ-9 Predator Drone sort of works, flies but the hud is missing so can't really do much with it.

The following Mods I use still work fine

A-4E C Skyhawk (Community Mod)
Panavia Tornado by VSN (think both GR4 and IDS work but only tried the GR4)
Anubis Hercules C-130

Helicopters

OH-6A
UH-60L Blackhawk
MH-60R (built off the UH-60L package)

This aircraft has been very fun to paint recently! I've been working on an old Thunderbirds livery used from 1953-1955 before they transitioned to the F-84F Thunderstreaks. It's been turning out quite

Hello there.   We just released the VSN F-106 DeltaDart. A FC3 based EFM mod with a custom pit. If you like, you can take a look here:   and download the mod right here:

I wish I had taken more care to confirm before I switched back to 2.9.5, but I believe you can also add VSN_F-35 to the list. I only confirmed that the F-15EX Eagle II cannot be piloted and then immediately downgraded.

Additionally, if anyone is using any of these 3 modded aircraft, can you confirm that the AIM-120D3 and AIM-260 JATM are currently broken when launched below certain speeds?

I had issues with the F-15EX and F-22A Raptor launching the AIM-120D3 sometimes, not sure if it was speed related as never took much notice of that, either took repeated clicks to launch or just went off where ever it felt like and normally no where near where the lock was, although some of that could have been down to me 🤣

I found out by accident that there was a problem when my AI failed to destroy a target at even 40kn, let alone the 90kn of the AIM-120D3. I made a separate test mission and found out that both the AIM-120D and AIM-260 fly in all crazy directions when released below 345kn IAS. Above that speed and they work just fine. 🤷‍♂️

Is it possible to give the F-104 the AIM-9 Sidewinder versions available with the Heatblur F-4E Phantom? Would helo so simulate the different Starfighter versions more realistically 🙂

Maybe the F-4 Phantom by VSN can provide its AIm-9J too.

6 UK liveries for the VSN Hunter Mk6.  These are mostly made from existing VSN skins within the mod or from the template within the mod, which is very basic, so they are not very high quality.  Skins butchered and adapted to suit my game using resources from many different sites. 

You will need to find the VSN Hunter Mod from wherever it is being stored today, it keeps moving !!!!

Credit to the original model and livery makers who are unknown to me. 

I wont be doing any more. 

I use Dropbox for more important things so grab this quick, I will disable the link in a day or two.

The Hawker Hunter is available from this VSN download site, hasn't been updated on all of them.

Unfortunately we can't enjoy this beautiful aircraft in flight yet. But we can enjoy these excellent skins all the more. I really like the Suez Invasion and the RN 899 Sqn Early liveries. Thank you, crazyeddie,  for this great contribution to the DCS early jet fan community.

Great liveries, thank you so much for sharing 🙂 

... the link says Pt.1 .. is there a part 2? 😀 ... any chance you might have a chilean skin on the works, for use on the SA Map?   🙏

Just tried the hot fix that 'cdpkobra' posted for the VSN aircraft and for me I am getting the same results as using the F-15C workaround, none functioning landing gear, no flaps and 50% of the time no trigger but weapons launching does work for missiles.

I have managed to get the Hawker Hunters working through as previous to the fix they weren't flyable, but now both the MK6 or TMK68 worked at all so at least now they are showing up and can be flown, just with the problems I described.

I can confirm TKhaos'  findings. In addition, I have observed that some instruments (e.g. the fuel gauges) are not working yet. The firepower of the four cannons is far too weak. Their effect on the target is more like that of 4x 0.5' machine guns. The four 30mm ADEN had a huge punch, comparable to twice the firepower of a Mirage 2000. This module is WIP and we still need to give the development team some time to fix these shortcomings. In any case, it is already a pleasure to fly the beautiful Hunter from VSN. I am already looking forward to the upcoming updates.

The Hunter is based on the A-10A, so the displays do not work.
We are still waiting to see what the next updates will change and will then decide how to adapt the mods, as the Su-25T avionics are also causing problems.

Here is the link to the test mods, we are still in the process of fixing the SFM mods.
The whole thing is still experimental and still needs to be tested.

https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=kZgx6gZWe5YWYUN63mIhQOYf9iAi8TzeMPX

Downloaded a few of my old favourites to try for a couple of hours today, only really tested what was broken such as flaps, landing gear and pretty much all usable now.

These seemed to be good, although not fully tested but flaps, landing gear work and missiles and bombs seem to launch okay:

Eurofighter Typhoon

F-4E Phantom II

F-14A, F-14B and F-14D

F/A-18F

Hawker Hunter MK6

Mirage 2000

Panavia Tornado

These worked, but there were some issues:

Hawker Hunter TMK68 (flies and everything works but for some reason it wants to go vertical most of the time, even pushing forward on the stick fully and trying to trim it)

F-16A (v2.9.6) The default F-16A didn't load, took you straight to external view of another aircraft when launching. Other variants selectable in it did work though such as the F-16A MLU.

Haven't had time to test any of the others and like I said it was quick tests based on what I knew was a problem before.

Many thanks for testing

The height trim of the hunter is wrong, you have to trim up so that it goes down, I have to see if I can turn that.
Without changing the original files, you have to get into the Hawker or the A-10A first, only then will the VSN_F16A work.

All the mods that no longer work still load but are not flyable but can still be used for Ai.

The MQ-9 Predator Drone sort of works, flies but the hud is missing so can't really do much with it.

A-4E C Skyhawk (Community Mod)
Panavia Tornado by VSN (think both GR4 and IDS work but only tried the GR4)
Anubis Hercules C-130

Helicopters

OH-6A
UH-60L Blackhawk
MH-60R (built off the UH-60L package) 

I think I’ve found the answer to this by luck!  Yesterday I tried my VSN Mirage III for the first time since the last update, and couldn’t get into the cockpit.

On a whim I edited the mission to add a Flaming Cliffs 4 F15 with it set to ‘player’ (since the Mirage cockpit is based upon the F15).   Having hopped into the F15 cockpit I then switched to the external view of the VSN Mirage, and pressed the right-Alt + J to take control, and got into the Mirage cockpit no problem.

The Mirage III is the only VSN mod I have, but this process certainly works for that one!

They solved some of the issues by rewriting some of the code, there are new downloads for over 20 of the VSN aircraft, so you can just use the aircraft without any issues. They are in testing at the moment but been 2 weeks and so far and I personally haven't found any issues.

This is the original post I did a couple of weeks ago, forgot to add it in here :lol:

Yesterday around 23 of the VSN mods were updated and available for download to test. I tested the following VSN which seem okay at the moment. Things like the landing gear, flaps and weapon lauching problems all seem to be solved now:

Eurofighter Typhoon

F-4E Phantom II

F-14A, F-14B and F-14D

F/A-18F

Hawker Hunter MK6

Mirage 2000

Panavia Tornado

https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=kZgx6gZWe5YWYUN63mIhQOYf9iAi8TzeMPX

 

The CubanAce Su-57 Felon has it's own cockpit now and works with the latest update, need to select the bottom download that requires no mods:

https://sites.google.com/view/spinossimulationsite/dcs-world/mods

 

The F-22A Raptor by GrinnelliDesigns works now, need to download v3.0:

https://grinnellidesigns.com/f22/

 

The F-15EX by Spino is also fixed as well, needs to be v1.8.7:
