On 4/5/2021 at 11:49 AM, cdpkobra said: The SFM is causing problems with the aircraft carrier. -Catapult launch does not work with SFM, last working DCS version is 2.5.6.49798. -When launching the aircraft explodes, on some mods it works and on others it doesn't. I haven't found the bug yet. -Landing must be very accurate, no margin for error. - Since ED locked the DLL, I don't fly DCS anymore, so I don't see the errors. Unfortunately, I can not model, I bought the pilot and put in the planes. It is difficult to find good 3D pilot models. I'm testing VSN one by one...following the installments of Flaming Cliffs 3 and using the 'Saved Games' folder. At this hour, all VSN modules are working with v2.7 and I do note that Rafale, Eurofighter, Mirage lll, and the VSN-F-18 variants can land on the regular and super carrier. But hookup for cat launch code is absent and will probably remain this way due to the SFM limitations.

Ktulu84 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Hi everyone! Really sorry if it's inappropriate in this topic, BUT... I'm trying to find a way to contact the VSN team for maybe a commissioned work. I'm a French director, made a couple of DCS short films, TOP GUN: MAVERICK & GOOSE last year and more recently THE GHOST. I've discovered DCS World about 2 years ago and had great fun making these movies, allowing me to combine my two passions: aviation and cinema. Anyway, I discovered the VSN_F104 mod and love it, congratulations for this awesome piece of work! The thing is, for the past few months, I did some research for my next DCS movie, a tribute to Chuck Yeager and his zoom climb mission in 1963. I'd like to know if anyone in the VSN team would be interested in providing a private NF-104A mod in order to make this DCS movie more accurate? If not, I intend to use the actual F-104 mod but as I'm going to put a lot energy, time and effort into this, I'm asking... Hope that's okay. I really think this would be a great opportunity to tell this amazing story to the DCS community and to all aviation enthusiasts. Please, let me know. Happy to chat about it, anytime. Any advise are welcome Thanks and kind regards ++ 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngleOff66 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Hello, I'd like to thank everyone involved with these mods. thank you all very much! I can not seem to figure out how to launch the F-14(only one I have tried) from the default carrier. 1) Launch bar wont go down to the shuttle 2) Shuttle either stays behind the F-14 or sometimes moves ahead of the nosewheels 3) Automatic wing sweep control? Is there one? I can not find it. 4) F-14 explodes when it gets to the end of the launch(front of the deck) So what am I missing/doing wrong? Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any advise are welcome Thanks and kind regards ++ Hi. Great Idea. Would really love to see a good DCS-Movie featuring the F104. The Problem with the NF104 is, that it would need a totally new aircraft model which needs to be animated and everything. So I think that is not too likely. If you need more "thrust" in the F104G, that could be done without problem ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there one? I can not find it. 4) F-14 explodes when it gets to the end of the launch(front of the deck) So what am I missing/doing wrong.... In my testing and reading, the VSN version of the F-14 is using the SFM...thusly, its not going to 'act' accordingly atop a carrier's deck and carrier ops in general. In my test, I was never able to 'hook up' with the launch bar. Instead, I found the only way to launch from the deck was to literally drive down to the 'Ready Five' station, point my nose at the bow, and simply let'er rip- regardless of anyone standing in the way. I doubt seriously that the modder will be able to script the needed code for accurate carrier ops with any of the VSN models. So, iits a swim at your own risk deal. And landing the VSN variants onto the carrier has to be dead on precise, otherwise, I've found myself catching the wire and my nose is under the deck, doing doughnuts and ending up over the side as I witness the code trying to interpret what the module is supposed to do. Ive had excellent landing with Eurofighter and Rafell, but since then and since the update, I'm not able to repeat a proper landing. I've been far too busy with house work and health issues to get a firm grip on the Heatblur's release, albeit I can land it on the carrier w no problems, and I bought the Super Carrier for fun, but alas, VSN modules are best enjoyed from a land base.

The liveries correspond roughly to the coloring from the photo documents. Procedure for the installation. First unzip the VSN_F105.zip into the VSN_F105 directory and overwrite the files when prompted. Secondly, unzip the VSN_F105_2.zip into the VSN_F105 directory and overwrite the files when prompted. This zip contains all changes to the number representation on the front landing gear. As a last step, unzip the VSN_F105_465th TFS.zip into the VSN_F105 directory. This zip then only contains the liveries of the 465th TFS. Have fun with it.

Cheap_Trick Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Well, here's an example of the VSN-F14 as I attempted to bring the wings out before taking a stroll through the mountains- the bird never lost control, I was able to climb and roll with ease- However-- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of the F-15 Eagle that lost an entire wing, after an air to air collision, pilot knew something was wrong, trimmed it out, and returned to base and landed. No one could believe what just happened, including the pilot. McDonal Douglas sent some people to Israel to see for themselves and debrief the pilot... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1983_Negev_mid-air_collision Edited May 6, 2021 by Rick50 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musolo Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 (edited) Many people don`t mind having Frogfoot cockpit in Mi-28. and Warthog cockpit in Cobra. They`d still love to fly them. Wonder if your F-15E mod would work on the server.So that people who dont have this mod installed still could connect.(There is a trick to allow for that and still have clean protected server) And if your F-15E flyable mod splashes something would server display F-15E in kill message? Those couple of questions i`ll have to investigate) Edited May 8, 2021 by musolo ----RED FLAG---- DCS Server.
