CFT_Mod_3.1.4

[Rob Mason]

Hi Nightstorm, thoroughly love this mod but sadly this latest version crashes my DCS OB, it seems that it doesn't work with CJS Super Hornet mod, the only other mod I use, all other mods are injected using OVGME as is your CFT Mod but after disabling all other mods in OVGME the CFT MOD being the only one left enabled and the CJS Super Hornet mod which is directly installed into DCS root folder my DCS crashes, if I disable CFT Mod leaving Super Hornet mod only my DCS runs fine, any ideas.

I have the CJS F18 mod installed too, albeit a customized version.  Can you post your crash log?  That might point us in the right direction.

Same here.

I found a corrupted LUA file in the upload.  It's been fixed.  Same link.

Thank you so much Nightstorm, for all your hard work, Merry Xmas.

Thank you same to you all.  I don't know what went sideways, there were multiple corrupted LUA files.  That's never happened in an upload before.  I verified everything last night though, so it should be good to go.

I had so many issues with v3.13 that I scrapped it, reverted back to v3.12 and upgraded and integrated again.  The mod is now in two parts.  Make sure you download both as the second part contains the textures.

我在 v3.13 上遇到了很多问题，以至于我放弃了它，恢复到 v3.12 并再次升级和集成。该模组现在分为两部分。确保下载两者，因为第二部分包含纹理。

您好，我尝试多次下载 CFT V3.1.4A/B，但每次显示达到最后 100MB 无法下载，请联系网盘的工作人员，我尝试使用两台电脑，但仍然无法下载，可以将 A/B 的两部分上传到其他云存储吗？这将占用您宝贵的时间，无论您是否同意我的请求，我尊重您的想法，我多次打开DCS来播放您的作品，感谢您过去一年对DCS社区的贡献，并衷心祝愿您和您的家人在2024年生活愉快健康。有了像您这样的伟大创作者，DCS社区将变得越来越好。

Hello, I tried to download CFT V3.1.4A/B many times, but each time the display reaches the last 100MB can not be downloaded, please contact the staff of the network disk, I tried to use two computers, but still can't download, can I upload two parts of A/B to other cloud storage? This will take up your precious time, whether you agree to my request or not, I respect your ideas, I have opened DCS many times to play your work, thank you for your contribution to the DCS community over the past year, and sincerely wish you and your family a happy and healthy life in 2024. With great creators like you, the DCS community will get better and better.

I've downloaded it from Dropbox without issue.  If you want to upload it somewhere else that's fine.

我已经从Dropbox下载了它，没有问题。如果你想把它上传到其他地方，那很好。

Hello, I entrusted my friend to download the latest CFT V3.1.4, after installation, you can see F-16EX BL60, can't this model be mounted with CFT fuel tank? I didn't find any options in the CFT mount.

[Nightstorm]

At present, with the current public release, no.  The tanks it can mount are from the IDF mod and that part hasn't been integrated yet.  It will have this capability in the near future I hope.

Hello, I downloaded and installed the latest CFT V3.1.4, found that F-16EX BL60 can ignore the air defense system, air defense early warning radar will not even turn on, F-16EX is like a stealth fighter, can you check this situation? I tested 10 different types of air defense systems and the results were the same.

Hello.  That's working as intended.  You may notice that the liveries on the F-16EX done by @Texac are very similar to those of the F-22 Raptor liveries he also did.  They have sawtooth patterns and the same appearance.  The idea was to create a semi-stealth Viper.  Not as good as the F22 or even the F35 but to have some stealth characteristics.  The F-16EX is fictional.

In the F-16EX.lua file you will find the RCS defined as well as some references.

    RCS                            =    0.010,        -- Reduced RCS from 4 m2 for stock F-16C.  2 x F35A and 100 x F22A.
--    RCS                            =    0.005,        -- Radar Cross Section m2 F-35A Reference
--    RCS                            =    0.0001,        -- Radar Cross Section m2 F-22A Reference

Should be fixed.  I changed the files to "on line" only and that evidently changed the download links in Dropbox.  Live and learn.

应该修复。我将文件更改为“在线”，这显然改变了Dropbox中的下载链接。生活和学习。

您好，我看到 CFT V3.1.4 已于 24.01.08 更新，但我似乎没有看到更新日志。这次更新带来了什么惊喜吗？

版本号仍为 3.1.4。你忘了修改它吗？我正在下载它，我很惊讶并期待您的每一次更新，感谢您的工作为我们带来如此多的乐趣。

Hello, I see that CFT V3.1.4 has been updated on 24.01.08 but I don't seem to see the changelog. Did this update bring any surprises?

 

The version number is still 3.1.4. Did you forget to modify it? I'm downloading it, I'm amazed and looking forward to every update from you, thank you for your work for bringing us so much fun.

There corrections made, the B61 tactical nuke was added.

Added F-16CM Block 52 and F-16C Barak with correct engine specs.  

Remade thrust tables for all aircraft to correct data based on F100-GE-129 or F110-PW-229 engines.

Used the engine specs for the new F100-GE-129 EFE "Enhanced Fighter Engine" for the F-16X.

Your engine designations are wrong.  The GE-129 is an F110 variant, the PW-229 is an F100 variant, not the other way around. The key is in the letter convention, PW-229 is a specific model of the Pratt and Whitney F100, and GE-129 is a variant of the General Electric F110 engine.

Is there any way to be able to use NVG with CFT MOD? After the update, you need to raise the visor before using NVG, but with CFT MOD enabled, the "Lower, Raise, Toggle Helmet Visor" options are unavailable in the DCS options

Hi NightStorm,

Since last updates and using the latest version of CJS F-18EF Superhornet, I find that when activating your mod with OVGME all my Viper pilot textures disappear in external view at least. Just thought you should know.

Is there any progress in updating the CFT? I know that some people have managed to enable the use of NVG when using CFTmod.

[Rob Mason]

Hi Nighstorm,

Is there any way you can update your excellent CFT Mod as since the last update none of the Viper pilot textures are showing with your mod enabled.

It would be very much appreciated thank you so much.

Rob(Merlin)Mason.
