VPC-airfield Equipment 0.9.4 beta

[crazyeddie]

Even weirder - now it does work on the Syria map using Rudel miz file, but none of the others. 

The same issue is happening in Alpha, so I'm guessing its a combination of problems with the the shelters, the aircraft and the game, its happening with all aircraft in the game on every map, in both Alpha and Beta, with just an A29B and the VSN Mod loaded. 

Past experience tells me to give up trying to fix this, hopefully it will come right sometime in the future.

I recently discovered this lovely Mod. The light towers doesn't seem to actually be lit during the dark hours. According to the website they should be lit up between 2200 and 0600. Do I need to do something other than just placing them?

Make sure to place them as Fortification Units, the lighting function does not work when placed as static objects.

Cheers! That was it!

Hi. I have the same problem. Lights don´t turn on at night.

I placed them as Ground Units / Fortification / VP Lighting Tower.

I am using DCS World Open Beta updated up to the last patch.

I am sending two attached pictures. The first one shows the tower (without lights) and the second shows the tower´s settings.

Strange ... just tested and they work on my DCS (latest Openbeta):

 

 

Are you using the latest version of the VPC Mod?  The one mentioned here:

?

Thanks for your atention to this.

The original version created by @voc and hosted at Virpil's website is not the latest one unfortunately. He updated the files back when DCS 2.5.5 broke the Mod, I used those files to update the Mod that I have stored on my stash. For a while (since DCS 2.7) the Mod needed a small fix to be applied on the DCS main program folder, but fortunately since DCS 2.8 that fix is not needed anymore.

Nowadays, both Stable and Openbeta are at v2.8 ... so the VPC Mod works with both with no need for the extra fix that DCS 2.7 required.

Hi everyone,

 

 

i have this problem (on the video). Some units just don't load in redactor when i place them, when the game started they don't spawn too. How can i deal with it?

Most likely, you are using an obsolete version of this Mod. see the message I linked 7 posts above this one.

Probably you installed it on the DCS program's path, instead of doing it at /Saved Games/

Silly question I know but how do I get a Ukranian flag into this pack?  Thanks.

 

Loving what this pack has enabled... below are some work-in-progress photos:

Danke, do I have to delete the old version ? And is SAVED GAMES the right place ?

Yes, as having two definitions for the same Mod will generate an error on DCS start .. it will work, but if you inspect the dcs.log you will see that the duplicate is ignored.

Yes, I have it as on this picture:

I use both and it's no problem.

I recently learned (from a squadron mate) that the VPC mod causes integrity check issues on servers (with that feature activated):

textures/su-27_detail @ c:users/username/saved games/dcs.openbeta/mods/tech/vpc-airfield equipment 0.9.4 beta/textures/vpctextures.zip

Are there plans to resolve this? I really like this mod but right now I can't use if because it would just be too much of a hassle for the guys in my org (DCAF) to keep adding/removing the VPC mod as they want to join non-DCAF servers.
