could someone point me to documentation on AI scripting and commands for the mod? In order to set up automated resupplies/airdrops.

You have to activate the ground idle for taxi. Go into BETA Mode and activate the LOW SPD GND IDLE (4 pushbuttons) below the thrust levers in the mid.

 

 

That helped. The gang on the discord also said the same. Thanks.

I would strongly suggest you join thier discord, they help out directly. I don't have the link, just look it up.

Version 6.8 is available!

 

[Change Log For Version 6.8]

Below some changes included in this version:

No need for steam users to tick the box - custom sounds now fully functional

- One AM radio added:
- In the Hercules.lua you have one panel radio defined with 20 preset AM channels:
- U1 (UHF) AN/ARC-164 RCS Presets

- CNI-MU: added waypoint entry / modification

Some more work done on the EFM (flight model refinements)
External default textures not showing on LOD2 fixed
All cockpit lights are now dim-able for NVG users

To the Herc Community:
Thank you all for your support over the past year.  It’s been incredible to watch the enthusiastic response from this community to our work.
However, with this release, we’ll be taking a step back, and you may hear less from us.
Fear not! We are not abandoning the dream of a full functional C-130 in DCS.
On the contrary, exciting things are underway, and we hope to share more in the next two weeks ;).

Hi,

Many thanks for this fantastic Mod !

One question : is this 6.8 version only for DCS 2.7, or does it work also with 2.5.6 ?

I currently use the last release Open Beta 2.5.6.

Amazing work, indeed you have done in this C-130 Mod !

Thanks,

Fly low...

v6.8 works with DCS 2.7 only

OK, thanks.

Hercules v5.0

 

Beware, this mod doesnt play well with Reshade (FPS loss) and the NS430 module, you'll need to deactivate it to avoid CTDs

 

 

 

Hi, how do you deactivate this Reshade and NS430 module? I'm on Steam.

Change log:

Emergency repair update
- Radio PTT incorporated
- Autopilot HDG sensitivity eased
 

The NS430 works (!!!) with the hercules, no need to deactivate it.

Just for the record, I don't think it's a third-party full module, but I hope it is.

Hey Guys, 

 

LOVE the mod.  LOVE IT.   However, since the most recent update to DCS, I can't get it to load in.  It will start to load the cockpit then it locks up DCS.  I've tried deleting it, reinstalling it, trying all the various DCS work arounds, nothing seems to help fix the issue.  Has anyone else noticed this?

After a new update of DCS, I always delete the folders ..\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\fxo and ..\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\metashaders2

No idea if it is really necessary but it seems to help. Dcs will rebuild those folders during start-up.

Therefore, after all that, I made a new mission on the Caucasus map and did not have a problem.

 

Always, when you report a problem (especially during start-up), include the ..\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Logs\dcs.log (NOT the .zip file please)

Hello!

 

I have this wondefull mod but I have a problem with Vaicom. The latest update from Vaicom makes compatibility problems with this mod. 

The problem comes from the entry.lua, this lines:

 

Options = {
    {
            name         = _("Hercules"),
            nameId         = "Hercules",
            dir         = "Options",
        },
    },    

 

If they are removed the problem is gone, but of course I don't know how this would affect the Hercules. If you could talk with Hollywood (vaicom) about this, it would be awesome. Thanks!

What happens if you try and test it?

I just installed the Marianas map, but in M.E. the Anubis Herc. although selectable, crashes the sim. and does not show on the ground except as an aircraft icon.
Anyone else having this problem?
