WIP A-6 Intruder skin for CorsairCat's A-6 Intruder Mod


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Good morning all,

I see that you are able to view the A-6 from an external view.  Is there a way that I can launch the intruder (whilst I am in the 'pit) from the ground without crashing to desktop?

I think 'Cap' from Growling Sidewinders was only able to launch while airborne.  I know that the Intruder is still a very early WIP but she's a cool mod!

Anyone interested in using the CorsairCat's A-6 Intruder Mod my find this useful.

 

To enable spawning and placing as a static object with the wings folded, make the following edit.

 

Open the file "...Saved Games\DCS\Mods\tech\DCS-A-6E-Intruder-main\A-6E.lua"

Edit line 176. Change from:

" wing_type= 0,"       to      "wing_type= FOLDED_WING,"

 

I hope that helps.

i can usually get it to spawn on the ground as long as nothing spawns near me, and its a fresh first spawn, if for some reason the plane loads and drops once spawned is when it seems to crash the most.

Thanks Tracer,

Little question:
You spoke about it I believe, but how to find the textures of the throttles, and the supports of bombs?

Hey Pappy,

 

I think you can fix the missing MER texture using this fix:

I'm also working on an update for my Intruder skins. Now that someone got the folding wings to work, I noticed some mistakes I made with the lower side of the wings. I'll also try to fix the missing throttle textures. Dunno why they are missing, might have to change something in the description, because I didnt change anything inside the cockpit.

Hello "Tomcatter87"

thanks for the "Backy 51" patch, it works great for this nice A-6 Intruder.

Regarding the disappearance of the throttle grip and the part of the dashboard, maybe it's parts of different texture that have the same name ?

Pappy2,

 

Locate the Left_Side_Panels.dds and make sure it is being called in the Description.lua for the livery you want.  That should make your missing texture show.

 

That texture is located in the Textures/A-6E-CPT folder.

Allright, I finally found the time to upload a new version of my Intruders. The 80s birds are now all in one pack. The missing throttle texture has been fixed. And I improved the textures on the lower side of the wings -   expecially on the Hi Visibility birds.

WIP livery for CorsairCat's A-6 Intruder Mod found here:

CorsairCat, if you read this, greatly appreciated if you could add the Pilot and BN to the model.

+1 for adding pilot to the model.

About carrier ops: "The younger pilots are still quite capable of holding their heads forward against the forces. The older ones have been doing this too long and know better; sore necks make for poor sleep.'
