Rudel_chw Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I am working on a new helicopter for X-Plane and it takes all of my time. When I have more time I will come back to this MOD and fix if I can. Hello, I hope you are doing fine, tough I see that it's been several months since your last visit to the Forum. I'm engaged on editing a few missions for the I-16 set at Normandy, and found that the airfields on this Map have no lights at the runways :( Looking for a workaround, I tried to use the lights that you provide on this Pack and they do work nicely when I'm near them .. but at a longer distance they dissapear, for example here I can only see the lights on half of the runway, the far end lights cant be seen: Please, if you return to this Mod, can you increase the lights range?

rwbishUP Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 was wondering if someone could help me out? I know how to add objects in ME but, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I unpack and place the main folder "civil_objects", into my C:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\tech folder and still I can't access the objects from ME. I have checked in every category multiple times but nothing. I really want to build some missions and use this pack but am having no luck. Anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx You are doing the right thing, do you have multiple installs of DCS? Check that the name of the folder in saved games matches the name in the file called "dcs_variant.txt" in the main game install directory.

HTH Thanx for the help Ben, sorry it took so long to get back to you. I just cleaned out the mods/tech folder, unpacked the downloaded objects again and placed them back in the folder and when I checked ME, they were available this time. So I don't know what was going on, just glad it's fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jef32 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Hi I see the 2.5.6 coming very soon and I'm very afraid that your mod ( and many other mods) willn't work anymore.

jef32 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I was right to be afraid This mod now crashes DCS 2.5.6 if used in a mission.

kristod76 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 The reason of crash of the mission is lack of the file: C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\shaders\model\fake_spot_lights.fx If anybody has the original file from previous version, please let it be attached. I will try to remove civil_objects when mission editor will open the MIZ file.

jef32 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Adding the file in DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\shaders\model\fake_spot_lights.fx changes nothing for me. The vehicles of the Civil-Objects continue to work in 2.5.6 but the fact of using the buildings and the helipads, is crashing DCS.

kristod76 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Finally I had 2 problems, lack of the file which Ironhand was kind to upload and I had 2 tankers on my mission. One for Blue and one for red. When I removed russian KC-130 mission is loaded. It was working before.

Fercyful Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) thanks for uploading the file Ironhand, Have a quite big personal mission. The mission loads well (and can play it) but when I try to open it with the editor this error appears and DCS go to desktop. https://imgur.com/ckcyTNR I placed the "fake_spot_lights.fx" at the DCS folder at suggested. Still the same. Please any tip to can fix? Really can be sad for me if I lost many of the missions builded in the past. Thanks! Update : Kind of fixed it !! Instead of using the file Ironhand kindly upload I copy / paste the actual 2.5.6 "fake_spot_lights2.fx" and rename it like "fake_spot_lights.fx" now the editor loads without the DX11 error and I can "clean" the mission of mod objects (unfortunately cos they were great) I will do that like a temporary fix for can keep editing the mission (will save the full one for future use -hope so-) (btw sorry for my "english") Good luck to all with the old & good pre 2.5.6 mission editing.

Forest Rat Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I'm just posting to show interest in a "fake_spot_lights.fx" solution. This was my absolute favorite mod. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feefifofum Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Another bump. Any plans to make these objects 2.5.6 compatible? My group loves the follow-me vehicles and hospital elements and would love to see them updated to work with the latest patch.

alana Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Hi Joe, I have DCS on my D drive which has the Mods/tech files, not under C drive which has USER/Name/ etc. I extracted the files to the D drive Mods/Tech and none of the stuff shows up. I am running 2.5.6 - Can you help me sort this out please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaD CrC Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Guys, the reason why the topic resurfaced is only because those mods stopped working with 2.5.6. Just read the last two pages of this thread. DO NOT download and install them. It will crash your game and there is little to nothing you can do. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Only vehicles run fine in 2.5.6 with this mod, all other objects make DCS crashes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
