javelina1 Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 HHmmm..... So I deleted the original A-4E mod, downloaded and installed V1.01 with the canopy hotfix applied. Now I am getting large white blotches on the canopy as shown in attached images. I have tried deactivating the reactivating the mod in module manager, cleanup and repair of DCS, shadow settings flat, low, medium and high, lense effects with dirt, dirt + flare and off, with no effect. Strange, as I have watched some YT videos (eg PhilStyle) and his canopy looks perfect with scratches and all showing up. I don't remember seeing scratches at any time so far on my install. Is there a setting I'm missing? Running latest OB, latest NVidia drivers. I'll report on the supplied bug reporting site. Cheers! I can confirm I see the same effect when I apply the V1.01 as well. Some large white blotches on the canopy. So for now, I've backed out the V1.01. (I created it as a JSGME mod, so no issue with toggling it in/out). Love flying this little bird!

HC_Official Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 Thanks for doing this great work and releasing it to us for free I understand that you cannot accept donations, but are there any charities that the A4 dev team support, we might not be able to give you guys money but we could donate to a worthy charity maybe ?

Try to download it again, the version called "A-4E-C v1011 (HotfixPreApplied).zip" and then apply the hotfix on that one, that's how i did it and works great.

Another question, has anyone figured out how to jettison empty fuel tanks? I've only found you can do this with the "Emerg Bomb" handle which jettisons all hard-points, so must be done once you have expended the payload. Cheers!

Shibbyland Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) This looks amazing. Thanks for all your work and for putting in the RNZAF schemes. Just out of curiosity, did your team base the roll rate on any documentation? Edited November 23, 2018 by Shibbyland
EAF51_Luft Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 I flew yesterday Scooter....Takeoff amazing, only too smooth just after airborne, but it's really very fun! Great work, thanks for this little jewel!!! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] http://wp.europeanaf.net/ EAF51 CHANNEL YOU TUBE https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIgUfhgS1ZyryNwgR49wOOg

swartbyron Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 I'm really enjoying the A-4, I cant stop flying it. :) I assume the external lights haven't been implemented yet as I cant get them to work? Is there a way to stop the constant looping canopy or flaps sound or at least an edit I can make to remove it all together?

I've only found you can do this with the "Emerg Bomb" handle which jettisons all hard-points, so must be done once you have expended the payload. Cheers! No worries at all. What I do is the emergency selector, i think it's called, that by default is set to all pylons, I put it to the pylon number i want to jettison and then i press the key that you have to set it i think in controls it's called jettison stores realistic or something like that, or you can use the emerg bomb handle.

For the external lights you have to set them on the right lower panel and then move the switch on the left hand side of the throttle it's something similar to the A-10c. If you don't have the hotas warthog i'm sure there's a key bind for that in controls.

fill Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 take off from a carrier Hello, If I put this mod on a carrier to take off, DCS crash. Is the same for you ? Thx.
kreidel Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 Great Mod, thank you. My question is I play a lot of the MP servers, while I don't use the A4 on the servers, I am getting a intergraty fail for any server I am on (using DCS aircraft) then getting kicked. Is there anyway around this? so I don't have to delete the mod (which I don't want to do) Thanks... I have the same issue, would like to know how to make it work.
bC3660 Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 I'm having an issue with putting the mod in the game. I tried the file path on the 1st page but the computer will not let me put it there. Any hint on where I should put it? Thanks ... Sorry I'm a little computer stupid.
Frag Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 Actual video of A4 roll rate: HOLY HELL!!!!!!! That aircraft maneuverability is out of this world.
