Gandalf_56 Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Excellent mod for us ... All our squadron is testing the mod right now using the Armada Argentina skin!!! We hope to get the skin template quickly... we have very good artists to increase the liveries for the A4E. Thank you for your amazing work!!! http://www.ecv56condor.com.ar ECV56 Condor - Discord Channel
aileron Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 I flew it today in VR, beautiful cockpit. This is my all time favorite aircraft so lots of fun to fart around with. Can't believe the roll rate. I finally know what its like to sit in an A-4. :D Once again; Congrats guys! Excellent job!!!
Thudster Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Thanks guys! - this is a fun mod! Great little scooter - this'll be fun for quite a while! Much appreciate the love sweat and tears getting this one done! (1AF) "THUD" | 55th FS Joint Task Force 1 | Discord
MurderOne Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Waited for what seemed like forever for this A-4. Then the day finally came, and the A-4 was here. And, I don't know, it's beautiful. I haven't had much chance to fly it, but I did take it for a quick spin, though mostly just looked at it on the pad. Love it. Sorry, no cool signature here.
VapoR Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Incredible work! Such a great choice for a module and just feels right in DCS. You guys realize you just raised the bar for ED? SFM but still has most important functions clickable. THIS is what the FC3 craft should be! No more memorizing ridiculous key combos for basic tasks!! S!
sideshow Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 And that's a completely understandable position to have. Its by no means perfect, its a mod by people who had never made a mod before and only had two professionals in their area of work (coders). One thing though, external lights do work. Flip the switch on the left side of the throttle and flip the switches on the far right side of the right console. There are bright and dim options for the nav lights, as well as a taxi light. Couldn’t of said it better. These guys put their heart and soul Into this project, and asked nothing from us.
superostrich Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) I don't know why. I tried it and I wasn't impressed. No offense to the makers of it, I understand everyone that worked on it put alot of effort. I'm a big Skyhawk fan and I thought I could overlook this just being a mod, but I guess not. Hopefully we will get an actual Skyhawk module someday. No external lights on this thing is also ridiculous, can't do any flying with others online in bad weather or at night. Your parents raised you wrong. Edited November 19, 2018 by superostrich

Scotch75 Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 To the community A-4 crew, Wow.... what a brilliant effort guys. I'm sure Gos is looking down and beaming with pride for what the team has accomplished. Well done! A couple of things... 1. Is there a way of programming in preset TACAN frequencies (if enabled)? 2. Attached are a couple of screenshots of the canopy texture artefacts as described previously by another user, for Alex to have a look at (running latest OB).

McTschegsn Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 What a blast! Will install it this evening and have loads of fun with one of my favourite Aircraft :) Thank you guys. I really appreciate your work... Will be nice to pair this with the oncoming F-14 :D In thrust we trust :thumbup: Falls jemand Montags Abends Lust hat mit uns zusammen zu fliegen und Spass zu haben (Anfänger sind auch herzlich willkommen) kann gerne auf unserer Website: https://www.jg-frankonia.de vorbeischauen oder sich direkt bei uns im Discord melden: https://discord.gg/vHEJf3c Eigene Server und viel Spass sind vorhanden :thumbup:
Awesomejlee Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 On my test flight tonight, I couldn't get the trim to work. The needle would move, but the trim didn't actually do anything. Had to fight the plane from going nose down the entire flight. Am I doing something wrong? Other than that, great plane!
Braeden108 Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 I'm feeling a little silly, but I can't get it to show up in my aircraft list. Unzipped it into the aircraft folder of my DCS folder C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\A-4E-C I can see it in the modules section where one activates modules, but I don't see it along the bottom where the aircraft icons are and I can't place it on the map in order to fly it. As it doesn't show up on that list. I also don't have the option to bind any controls for it. Light the tires kick the fires! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Baco Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 MODs now go in the Save Games folder : "C:\Users\ YOUR USER- AKA*baco1*\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\Aircraft\A-4E-C
O_Smiladon Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 S! You have made this kiwi very happy thanks soooo much [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
BassAddict Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Great module guys! The guys I've been flying with are having a bit of an issue with the tail hook not coming down. I've watched the Carrier recovery attached to the post and tried to follow as best as I could. Am I missing a step or could this be a bug? Thanks again! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
QuiGon Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 That's a very impressive module you guys managed to build there. Much respect to you guys! Unfortunately I'm not a fan of SFM modules, but I might give it a try anyways. Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
Bobby Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Congrats guys and thank you for your hard work!
Heidi Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 impressive job!!! compliments guys! I love it, flying in VR is wonderful!
609_Relentov Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) @Merker - A-4E-C Mod - Bug report thread? Once again, fantastic work on the A-4E, very fun to fly. Will there be an area to report bugs? Not sure what sort of plans there are to fix anything, if any. However, I figured I'd start here :). One thing I noticed is that the 20mm didn't seem to do much damage. I flew in offline mode and I may have figured out why. When I looked at the log/score (' key), it shows that weapon being used is "coltMk12", and when I got hits on the enemy aircraft, it shows "7.62mm". So I'm wondering if somehow the specs for the 20mm were inadvertently set to a light machine gun round instead. It would certainly explain the lack of "punch" of the 20mm :). Thanks in advance for looking into this. Relent Added an image showing the gun info seen from the log: Edited November 19, 2018 by 609_Relentov
