AvgeekJoe Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Can I just say the surface ship is nearly if not indestructible? I've had rocket rounds land near it, had FAB-500s (1,100 lb) bombs hit these ships, rockets and 30mm hit, artillery and tanks help me and a wingman try to sink them, and yet no damage. Thoughts?

fixedit Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Not to bring this back from the dead but it would appear 2.8 killed the mod.. from what I can tell the "BDK_775_LOD0.EDM" and probable .lod file is missing after the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A reference to the Shapes folder must be added to the entry. It is best to put the liveries and texture folders in Postpone BDK775 LANDING SHIP. the entry with the corresponding entries entry.lua 690 B · 4 downloads If thats in response to me I noticed the .EDM files for those that are in the /bazar/world/shapes are missing after the 2.8 open beta update and I know I didn't delete them. *edited I see what your saying! install the stable to snag the .EDM files or if somebody that has both installed could kindly just upload those that would save a lot of people a lot of headache.

fixedit Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 It would appear the BDK_775.EDM file was also pulled out of 2.7. Things ya never thought to make a back up of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyeddie Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I put one of these into a mission recently to see how it fared. 1 ship managed to destroy 2 modern destroyers, an aircraft carrier and a supply ship ... and it managed all that with the main guns pointing in the opposite direction when they fired. Damage to it - zero !!! Not a realisitic mod at present but its a very nicely made model and it will be a great addition when its sorted out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmarques Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Any idea why this wasn't just added to the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyeddie Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 i dont know but its something I have seen many times over the years. I always have a good look in the shapes folder after an update, looking for something with a recent date, and you find all sorts of stuff in there that isnt implemented in the game. Often it disappears again at the next update, but if you are quick you can extract the edm and the textures and create your own early version of whatever it is. You usually have the create your own Mod from what you have, so a new lua file is something you have to create yourself, they dont seem to leave those lying around for some reason !!! I guess its just development stuff that gets overlooked when they create the update. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyeddie Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 This Mod could be brought to life if somebody could sort out the lua's for both versions. I still cant work out why it wont be damaged or sunk and I have tried all the solutions I can think of to fix that to no avail, there is an EDM collision models but no damage model, but it should still sink if hit with enough firepower. So far I have been unable to sink one with anything. I'm guessing a decent lua might help. Sadly ships lua's are a mystery to me, the more I play around with them the more I screw the mod up !!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed this thread and took a stab at this. Felt like a fun challenge to see what could be done with the old 775 model. I didn't make any models or textures for this project, I used the ones described in this thread. After an evenings work, this is what I came up with. Project 775 Rapucha Class by Currenthill Version 1.0.0 Developers: Currenthill Credits: - ED for model and textures - Suntsag for original idea - Urbi for liveries Features: - Ropucha Class landing ship based on EDs model and textures - 2 x AK-725 57 mm cannons with custom shells - Lights - Waving flag - Spinning propellers - Working damage model - Working bow door (land a helicopter on the ship and the door will open) - Realistic ship performance - Will go very close to shore for landing missions - Working FCR - Exhaust smoke - Rotating radars Known issues/limitations: - Ropucha model is incomplete which creates limitations - AK-725 guns doesn't move visually (had to disable the movement since the ED model animations are backwards and centers are missing) - FCR won't turn correctly towards the target (due to incorrect animations and missing centers in the ED model) - The forward radar won't turn because of model issues 4 3 _____________________________________________________________ Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill Questions about my assets - check my FAQ!

AvgeekJoe Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 @UrbiI have the liveries as part of a Google Drive package: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1NX9bHf1kYAFkEZqvoOQnt5LvrE_Tw0Fm?usp=share_link Once @currenthill releases his stuff, I can repeal and replace with his plus if need be - and it doesn't look like it - your liveries Urbi. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
currenthill Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 7 hours ago, Urbi said: I have transferred the mod completely into the tech folder of saved games and it would be no problem to make the mod available like that. After the update from 2.6 to 2.7, ED no longer provided the textures for the 775 Rapucha and now, with the update to 2.8, the edm files no longer either. It was never a mod from ED since entry and model-lua were completely missing. It was never part of the NAVY. Due to copyright issues, it is no longer possible to make the mod accessible to others. I don't think ED would give the rights to the model here. I uploaded the liveries again. I added transparency to the railing by adding an Alpa channel for that area. The link is on page 1 of this forum. Yeah, I have a complete saved games mod. But as you mentions, I have to make sure what I can share and not due to copyright. I noticed the textures are linked in this thread, wouldn't that also be a copyright issue? If so, I'm thinking about releasing the mod as a saved games mod package without the textures and the main model EDM. This way everyone can add the two things from their own earlier DCS version, and I'm not distributing anything I shouldn't. My package would then contain the main lua, sounds, collision model, liveries. Also, since this was a quick Saturday night project, I didn't add the complete damage model. But I added that this morning. null 1 1 _____________________________________________________________ Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill Questions about my assets - check my FAQ!

currenthill Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 There, I added custom sensors, the MR-302 air/surface radar and finally custom sounds for the cannons. There is not much more to be done without having access to the native 3D model. 1 _____________________________________________________________ Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill Questions about my assets - check my FAQ!

currenthill Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 13 minutes ago, Urbi said: I now ask myself whether I was even allowed to create liveries for this model. So that the main textures don't have to be used directly, I edited them all and assigned them as false. An additional liveries named "Standard" created, which then has no ship name. For all other liveries, the missing textures are then linked to this standard liveries folder. The new liveries are in the link on the first page and then need to be copied into the Tech folder of the BDK775 LANDING SHIP designation. for me the folder is called "BDK775 LANDING SHIP". AvgeekJoe the zip folder does not contain the texture folders now. Okay! So to be sure, if I distribute this mod. I should do it without both the textures and 3d model. _____________________________________________________________ Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill Questions about my assets - check my FAQ!

Yes, and we can just graft/weld your fixes on. I'm just the Google Drive host until DCS World/ED tells me to stop. @Urbi The second Zip (02) of https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1NX9bHf1kYAFkEZqvoOQnt5LvrE_Tw0Fm?usp=sharing has loads of textures so I'm confused. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt.Turbo Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Well, How I Play made a video including this mod and the work being undertaken by currenthill, which was then shared by the DCS discord. That's not exactly written consent, but I'm not sure they object either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
