hotrod525 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Hello gents, i have a quick question, is there anyway to create a forward rearming / fueling point without putting an actual "FARP" in the editor ? I've read on the viggen forum that you have to name them "groundcrew" but whenever i load the mission, the menu is there but there is no action taken. I have an humvee, three M818, one POD-truck (the HEMTT) and one TFFT, my helo is closer than 150m, so what am i doing wrong ? Is it a VIGGEN only fonction ? Does it need specific script or something ? :helpsmilie::music_whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breaklight Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I think it might be viggen only. You might want to checkout Sunstangs farp mod. Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G930F met Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter_5E Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) Here is Suntsag's latest one in two versions, WWII and AM2 (Modern). They work very well. Only need to place a pad in the editor. No need for anything else for it to work as a FARP. Very cool. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4328283&postcount=8 Edited August 30, 2020 by Hunter_5E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrod525 Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Thanks for your answers but this is not what i want to do. I wanted to create a farp without actualy having to put one in the editor (that being the one from ED nor Mods'). Like to make a Leager in the middle of the desert to refule the helo. I guess its not possible without an actual "farp" object, i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breaklight Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 What if you take the sunstag mat, put it down and make it invisible? Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G930F met Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality a laager in the desert would need to be set up with some form of matting where the aircraft can land safely, along with the supply vehicles and personnel. I've attached a screenshot of a small desert laager made with Suntsag's AM2 mat and other static objects that come with his mod. The vehicles are all DCS, the rest is all Suntsag's. Looks pretty good don't you think? His single AM2 mat is very small and unobtrusive, much better than default FARP objects. Like Breaklight said, if you don't like the pad, make it invisible. You will need it to allow FARP functions though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll look into that MOD since it dosent seems to have the issue the ED FARP have (Like they then to put themselve levels even tought they insta-form hills :noexpression:) as you said. Thanks for all replies. :book: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Vorkosigan Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I placed the FARP fuel static along with a bunch of FARP tents and a vehicle to act as a MASH unit in my last Korean War mission. When I, and others, landed, comms for refuel, the ground crew does not respond. But when I took off I did indeed have a full tank of fuel (from fumes when I landed). No FARP, pad, etc. Caucasus map (our play pretend Korea). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
