Saguanay Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 Do you own FC3 or any part of it? Its been 6 months so I guess you have it working?
Estnische Posted December 14, 2021 Posted December 14, 2021 Hi guys - I'm a noob so maybe I'm missing something. I successfully installed to original F-80C mod and the B-29 also. Following the descriptions I attempted to install the F-80/F-86 mod using the convention like this: Custom Aircraft are typically installed to \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\YOURMODNAMEHERE For Example C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\A10C But it doesn't work - could someone dumb it down and show me the file path exactly? Thanks in advance.

Estnische Posted December 15, 2021 Posted December 15, 2021 Gracias Rudel! Now it works! I don't understand why Hawkeye said to use the main directory of the program files - unless the mod has changed. Now, if I can learn the mission editor, an interesting Korean campaign is possible.
Estnische Posted December 15, 2021 Posted December 15, 2021 Hell! I got myself in a real mess. I was accidentally trying to install my original F-80C mod in the main folder - no wonder it wouldn't work! I took it all out and started again. The F-80/F-86 files DO in fact go into the program files - the two parts go into the Core Mod and Mod folders for the F-86. No lockouts. Sorry to everyone, especially Hawkeye.
WirtsLegs Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 Download link seems to be dead for the saved game mod? Any chance of an updated link?
Rudel_chw Posted December 11, 2022 Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) Hi, Just wanted to report that this Mod is still working fine on the latest DCS 2.8: Edit: The latest version of the Mod also includes an RF-80A variant: The chilean livery that @Urbi graciously created for me, is still working too: The cockpit that the mod uses is the one of the A-10A .. but it doesnt bother me because on my missions I fly the F-86F and the F-80 is used for background AI missions and works fine in that role. Thanks so much, to @cdpkobra, @Hawkeye60 and @Urbi for creating this Mod ... it's a must have for Mig-15 and F-86 missions, along with @DOL's Tu-4 Edited December 11, 2022 by Rudel_chw 3 For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB

I have the mod of the F-86 and have made the F-80C and RF-80A flyable with the cockpit of the F-86. copy the content of the zip into the main folder of the VSN_F-80C. the avionics remain the same as the A-10A with number 17 in the entry.lua. the folder VOIP_Radios is necessary due to my entry in entry.lua. unfortunately not clickable. edit: where is the zip file? thanks a lot for this … will try it tonight and then let you know how it worked on my DCS Edited December 11, 2022 by Rudel_chw For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB

spud3030 Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 Thanks for this Ubri! it makes the lovely F-80 so much more immersive. Could you do the F-84 as well, please? Thanks Spud

Hawkeye60 Posted December 13, 2022 Author Posted December 13, 2022 @Rudel_chw Thank you for the kind words. But I wish to clear up any misconception about my involvement with this mod. I had zero part in its development. That honor is all the VSN teams. And Urbi of course for his contributions. My part was to ask for permission to start a dedicated thread, and ask for a template to be provided. My feeling was with this in place, the talented artists and skinners would work their magic, and give us a great selection of skins, all in one place. The link for this, and The VSN Northrop Grumman EA-6B Prowler Which I also posted for the very same reason, can still be found in Razors original thread. His links will direct you to the latest builds from the team. It seems I was correct with the Prowler! This became a instant hit! And skins began to appear like Christmas morn! So thanks for posting the livery links! One Stop Shopping! Cheers! Have a great Hoilday! 2 "Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil.

Fab8ball Posted December 14, 2022 Posted December 14, 2022 I would really like to have more liveries for the F-80 and F-84, especially Italian Air Force ones. Any links to additional liveries? I can't seems to find any Thanks

Stratos Posted December 16, 2022 Posted December 16, 2022 F-51, F-80, F-84, F-86, soon the A-1 (I know, different variants) and some other navalized surprises... If we could have a Korean War map!! 1 I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
Fab8ball Posted December 16, 2022 Posted December 16, 2022 3 hours ago, Urbi said: Hi Guys ! since there is no separate thread for the F-84G I will leave this little update in this one. Included are the use of the F-86 cockpit and a change to the main textures. The VSN_F84G.zip in the texture folder no longer contains bmp and png textures, all are converted to the dds format and contain the necessary mips. I also removed the roughmet textures and replaced them with spec. these specs are part of the psd in the paintkit with a group. the spec contains a neutral status. For the two included liveries, one original FS390 and another number FS391, a roughmet is included for each, which has been adapted for the numbers, colors and symbols so that they do not have the same shine as that of the fuselage. Good flight. https://www.dropbox.com/s/0kyny9umw4egi47/YSN_F84G_F-86 Cockpit.zip?dl=0 Awesome! Thanks a lot 4 minutes ago, Fab8ball said: Awesome!

plott1964 Posted March 13, 2024 Posted March 13, 2024 same problem. I think the DDS files need to be updated.

Hawkeye60 Posted March 13, 2024 Author Posted March 13, 2024 This issue was reported by Urbi. His fix, open each file in paint.net Save as DDS This should fix them Something changed in how the sim reads the texture files in a recent patch This fix should work with any mods with this issue. Be sure to download the latest Paint.net version It was up-dated recently. 1 "Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil. For where there is one, there is always three.
