PanicMan15 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Hello everyone! I am new to the DCS modding community and I want to get my feet wet with modding and all that jazz. I know LUA and I have toyed around with 3d modeling. I can put a plane in game and get it to fly with lot of help but I can do that basics. I am just looking for suggestions from the community that would like to see something in DCS. I come from a strong aerobatic background in this community so I am all ears open :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4eyes Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Many of us are not Air to Air Jet Jockey's so how about a Spotter aircraft like the OV-10 Bronco. or Douglas AC-47 Spooky PBYs for downed pilot rescues or a AC-130H Gunship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eight Ball Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I know it's unlikely but...hum, an UFO maybe? I mean, not a flying saucer, a proper ufo. Like a flying orb or a large pinball. Something that would leave the player wondering what he just saw zipping by his canopy. Cherry on the cake would be to "hide" it inside another mod, like a "barrel and crates" mod or something so it could be added to a mission without the player suspecting it.

beppe_goodoldrebel Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Since the many limitation of not having an SDK I think a simple Cessna 172 with clickable cockpit and a good EFM could be a good plane to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubanace Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Transport aircraft and Gunship type aircraft would be a good addition SU-57 Discord https://discord.gg/kVUEak6b66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimitriov Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Or if you're looking for a bit of originality in this world of blue and red, do european stuff like Germans as long as we are creating french units with the frenchpack on our side ;) Nicolas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salsam Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 A MQ-9 Reaper or simular UAV. We already have the 3D models, the sensors, lasers etc. Would be super cool and helpful with Combined Arms. I would make it myself except... I dont know how :-P A part of NOSIG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanicMan15 Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 Thanks everyone for the kind words! I will try my best to work with what I have. I am unable to do anything related to an EFM right now because I do not have the knowledge of the language that it uses. Ground assets are a good start and I will take any suggestions from those. I am American so I will most likely be doing more American content but I will try to add some variation in there. I saw the post about the drone. That is a good idea however, there already is a drone in the game and to access the laser designation I would have to have access to the SDK I believe, which is a 3rd party only tool.

denissoliveira Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 MIrage IIIE DCS Many developers and studios are losing money, creating a version of the mirage IIIC / IIIE gives to create numerous variants.

Chiwie Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 P&M crowd could use some expanded weapons loadouts for aircraft. Like Russian weps on US aircraft and vica versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avimimus Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 My humble suggestion as a future project: The Sukhoi T-12/Sh-90... the cancelled successor to the Su-25. Early variants even re-used Su-25 components for much of the fuselage (and some used Mig-29 engines): https://pkk-avia.livejournal.com/58714.html?nojs=1 This means that the Su-25T cockpit can be reused! It is pretty well documented for an unbuilt project, and would give us a higher performance Su-25 with an expanded weapon load and expanded sensors (at least by adding a hidden Fantasmagoria pod). So, it could be a relatively fun and quick aircraft to model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merker Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 My suggestion? Learn the basics through making a ship or ground vehicle. There's a lot of basic principles to understand in coding, modelling and texturing without having to getting too complex.
