There is a chance you installed it wrong, but it's hard to tell without any information.

well all i did was extracting the files to the mods file in the saved game file. is there extra steps i missed?

 

[razo+r]

Does the install look like:

\saved games\DCS\mods\aircraft\VSN_XYZ?

And when you open the VSN_XYZ, do you see multiple folder and files, or another single folder called VSN_XYZ?

If it looks correct, then we need more infos.

Can you see the mod in the module manager?

Is the mod aircraft selectable in the instant action for example?

If you don't see it in the mission editor, is the historical filter disabled?

It looked like this

 All VSN mods are based on the cockpit from the F-15C or A-10A or Su27.

You need the F-15c to fly these VSN planes.

Again, need more information.

What does it look like if you open the VSN folder?

And what exactly does not work for you?!

How can you not fly it? Via mission editor? Via instant action? Do you see it installed in the module manager?

I can't get the VSN 104 working either. It used to work fine, a couple of patches ago.

I have the OH-6A and UH-60 mods running OK, but the F-104 won't even show in the Mission Editor.

OH-6A and UH-60L are standalone mods and using their own flight models. The VSN mods are using the Flaming Cliffs flight models and since ED has updated FC a lot of them don't work out-of-the-box anymore.

Ah, OK - thanks for the info.

I'm having a similar issue with F-35.  I can load as AI, but if set as client or player, I can't spawn into the aircraft, it only loads as AI.

[Boelcke]

The F35 VSN works - like all the other VSN mods - first spawn in a F15C, just a moment to load the cockpit, than quit the mission and you are able to spawn in the F35 as pilot.

For the A2G versions of the aircraft you need to do it similar with the A10A or Su27.

Thanks!   I'll give it a try.

You'll need to hop into the plane first which avionics are used. If F15C, put a F15C knto the Mission with late activation, hop in and change slots...done

You have Entry.lua for F35 A-B-C AA with working fighters, I have only AG running.If there is, please share.

I created a livery for VSN F-84G several years ago and just went back to revisit it but noticed that the bare metal finish is now completely matte! There is no reflection whatsoever. I double checked everything but none has worked. I cannot get the shine back! The issue even extends to the two default liveries that come with the mod. This might be as a result of the last revision I downloaded and upgraded to (without actually flying it) which is v2.8.1.01. Has anyone run into this issue and knows what the solution is? I wish I had kept my previous release that seemed to work but unfortunately it's gone.

Thanks!

I am very excited to announce VSN has allowed us to test their upcoming F-104C standalone mod.  I am very impressed with the 3D model and flight model.  It will make a fantastic addition to ITJ when it is released.  We are also looking at adding the VSN F-4 B/C.  Both mods are having a minor conflict in ITJ we are looking into right now.  I hope to find the issue soon so we can place it in the mission.  I look forward to making more videos soon with ATA Refueling, Bomber Intercepts and some other functions.  Hope you enjoy the kickoff video and again, thank you to the VSN crew for allowing us to test this!

I had to do a video on the updated VSN F-4 B/C.  Looking to add this as well when we iron out the conflict I am encountering with twitching in VR.  I am on the war path and will hopefully have it figured out soon.  There were not a lot of recent videos out there of the VSN F-4 B/C and I wanted to reignite the flame.  Download link is in the video description if you want to go get it now.  Last update was this year back in Jan/Feb time frame.
