carss Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Can an update contain the F-15C being available for Japan and Saudi Arabia with their respective skins? As in the new update we are getting Chinese planes like the J-11 along with the release of the Harrier. We also have the Su-27 for the Chinese faction, so a Japanese F-15 is the perfect counter for it. We also have the new SOH map incoming for which the Saudi F-15C would fit like a glove. Also, either of the factions could serve as a good red side F-15 operator for certain online servers too...... ;) 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texac Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 There are already a few Japanese liveries for this aircraft. Not official though, downloadable from the User Files made by GeorgeLKMT I believe. I wanted to make a Saudi skin by myself just as well, however there is already an existing one but the colors don't fit to me. Adding a livery to another faction is quite easy. But I doubt ED will spend their time to accomplish that. - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube • Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but they're not available for the coalition yet, and to add them to the coalition would mean compromising the integrity, unless it's done officially by ED themselves. And really it takes like few minutes to do, just saying :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the liveries, its the F-15 being available for Saudi Arabia and Japan. For which you need to alter the db_countries.lua file which will compromise IC, unless it's done by ED in an official update [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carss Posted November 29, 2017 Author Share Posted November 29, 2017 Does Japan even exist as a country in DCS? Ofcourse, ever since the 1.5 update, they're usually in the neutral section [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo_Bob Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 ^^ this, and if you start a new mission file in the editor you can choose any of the Neutrals and move to red or blue, there's also a save global check box or some similar worded option that keeps the factions the way you saved for good within the editor [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Modules are like Pokemon you gotta catch 'em all :joystick::lol::pilotfly: AMD Ryzen7 3700x, G-Skills 32Gb RAM @ 3200Mhz, MSI GTX1080Ti, TM Warthog (20cm extension by Sahaj), MFG Crosswind Pedals, Oculus Rift, Track Ir5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carss Posted November 29, 2017 Author Share Posted November 29, 2017 Don't forget, we now have the J-11 for China with R-77s so a Japanese F-15 is the perfect counter for it ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texac Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 I just checked it and both nations are available. There is no need to change something in the db_countries.lua it can all be done within the discription.lua of the skin. - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube • Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carss Posted November 30, 2017 Author Share Posted November 30, 2017 I just checked it and both nations are available. There is no need to change something in the db_countries.lua it can all be done within the discription.lua of the skin. It has to be done in both cases. Changing the description will make the skin available to that country, but not the plane, that has to be done via the db_countries file [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carss Posted November 30, 2017 Author Share Posted November 30, 2017 That's how the Su-27 is availble in countries like Ukraine, Russia and China with their respective skins [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uri-Uri Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Hi, carss. Unfortunately, all attempts to change the db_countries lead to the fact that the DCS just does not start(( at least on my comp. Have you tried making changes to this file?

frixon28 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Its the small things that count to me, and stuff like this I value a lot for whenever I create missions. We got the A-10C for a dozen different countries that never used them, but we cannot get the F-15C for the country's that do use them?? Come on ED!
