Persian Gulf - Static Templates

[Rudel_chw]

It's easy, plus the templates and statics no one really cares what country they belong to. I added all to Iran with a few lines.

 

 

I'm always amazed by the LUA scripting, thanks a lot for the tip :)

 

 

I use all your templates successfully.

 

 

That's a great compliment and a joy to know :D ... this recent addition to the Mission Editor has really made so much easier to edit better missions, and it encourages the building-block approach .. it's a very new feature and I already have several dozens Templates on my collection:

 

 

 

 

I really hope that ED will further improve on this, by allowing us to store trigger-zones on the Static Templates, alongside units.

 

 

 

Cheers!

If the save button turns black after loading a template, does it mean I'm missing one of the mods?

No, that black button must have another cause.

 

 

I've just tried to load a Static template while having all my Mods removed, to check what happens in that case.

 

 

Found that the Template still loads, but without any of the Moded units .. only DCS standard units are placed on the Map; and the save function of the menu still works.

Hmmm, ok. I'll try a clean mission with just one template.

 

Edit: I ran a clean and repair and it looks like it's working now. Thanks!

Hi Rudel,

great red templates you shared in this thread: thanks a lot!

Is there some place where it could be possible to dowload also some blue side AB templates? It should be wonderful!

I will be updating it on a few days, to include the new airbases that the recent Openbeta upgrade added to the PG Map.

You're great!!:thumbup:

[Rudel_chw]

I will be updating my PG templates soon, as after next Wendsday's update we should have more airbases on the Map :D

 

Hello,

 

I've updated my airbases templates, please delete my older ones before downloading these, as I've changed the names of the Templates in order to have a better organized listing when opened from within DCS:

 

14 Iranian Airbases (Red Coalition): https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ai6cuX3YQI26hLVyA5DNz8NCPQWLCQ

 

16 UAE Airbases (Blue Coalition): https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ai6cuX3YQI26hKkA9B60OaP8Oju_fg

 

For the Strait islands, I have both Blue and Red templates, even if they are nowadays Iran's, in order to have more flexibility when creating fictional Missions.

 

These Templates make use of the following Mods:

 

1) VPC Airfield objects: Download from here: http://kregred.smile-pilots.ru/index.php/en/

 

2) Multinational Soldiers Mod by Suntsag: Download from here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=223659

 

3) Civil Aircrafts Mod: Download from here: https://cam.em-key.de/download-2/

 

Tough not strictly required, I suggest the use of Suntsag's excellent Mod, that converts ED's standard FARP into a desert themed FARP, as I've used FARPs to increase the capacity of the smaller airbases. You can download it from here:

Can these be used in MP missions?

 

Can these be used in a SP mission and saved in the .miz.. exampe: I create a mission and send it to someone who doesn't have the mods installed?

[Rudel_chw]

Can these be used in MP missions?

 

Yes, but every player needs to have the Mods used by the mission, installed on their Saved Games folder .. these Mods dont trigger the Integrity Check.

Using Static Templates is just a shortcut, the equivalent of you placing these units on the mission one by one using the Mission Editor, so, the mission will need the

Mods installed in order to be used. If you share the mission with other people, They will need the

Mods.

Thank you for all these! However, the link is broken for "Static Templates" in message #2 of this thread. Do you have a new link?

Or, are they now included with the updates?

Thanks for pointing it out, I’ve fixed it now, on post #2 (as I cant edit the OP’s first post).

 

I updated this Template pack a couple of times, take a look here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3713977&postcount=58

Hello, sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I'm just starting to learn about mission design, and I'm interested in designing some humanitarian one where the goal is to protect a civilian population, e.g. a group of protesters. Googling around I came on this thread, which looks like others have actually done this.

 

I'd like the mission not to be a forgone conclusion, so can civilians be attacked by enemy units? In stock DCS the closest unit I can find is the airshow crowd, which seems to be an impervious static unit. The mods linked in this thread look amazing, but can they be damaged? Also, are there units that are essentially like infantry but are unarmed (e.g. that I could have walking/running around which are mixed in with armed units)? I'm wondering if this all has to be simulated in some really ropy way (e.g. set a trigger for if munitions enter some box, then some score change happens).

 

Also open to any suggestions on good campaigns out there with such a humanitarian theme. Thanks!

Hi John,

 

Here is a link to my Iran Airbases Templates:

 

https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ai6cuX3YQI26hLVyA5DNz8NCPQWLCQ?e=eQKYck

 

These templates need a couple of Mods:

 

@Suntsag's Soldiers: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=223659

 

@Voc's VPC Airfield Mod ... unfortunately, his Mod doesn't work on the current DCS. I took the liberty of removing the night lighting of his objects and that allows the Mod to still be used, tough without night lights:

 

https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ai6cuX3YQI26hrlL6eRcl4jOLmhtpg?e=U5sx3G

 

I understand that @voc is updating his Mod to make it compatible with the current DCS. As soon as he publishes a working version, I will remove this link.

 

Best regards,

 

Eduardo

Hello,

 

Unfortunately, I haven't had time to update my static templates for the Persian Gulf and they are by now a bit obsolete to consider sharing them. I'm at the moment on another project, but after that I will revise them like I did recently with the ones for Caucasus:

Hi Eduardo

 

thx for the quick reply.

 

Well, seems like I have to wait a bit ^^

 

I´m not a mission builder, but I use your templates as an easy way to enhance existing mission & campaigns. It is really handy.

 

Take your time. I´m looking forward when you're finished.

sorry to make you wait, but the 2.5.5 and 2.5.6 DCS updates broke the VPC airfield objects mod, and this requires replacing almost all of this mod statics with identical units but of the ground type. It’s not difficult, but because of the large amount of objects it is a bit long and tedious
