I had to shrink the one I've used, though, because the crane just wasnt big enough. It's a baby wind turbine @Vine_dogThanks!

DishDoggie Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Sorry to have to ask a few questions Do I have to delete mod version 1.0 or does it stay for missions made with it? or Will 2.1 work with missions made with 1.0? still learning about Mods. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but seriously, you can delete v1.0 if you're using v2.1. I guess, just to be on the safe side, you could keep v1.0 but not load it, launch the game with 2.1 and check your missions. But I'm 99.9% sure it's safe to delete v1.0 Edited November 25, 2022 by Eight Ball 2 Find The Links To All My Mods And Liveries Here (in the gallery) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marroux Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Aloha, Thank you for this wonderful mod. A question : to make a ship drivable, is it only on the lua or do you need a specific edm ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need a specific connector for the driver point of view, which needs to be part of the 3D model. IIRC you will be able to make a ship drivable even if that connector is missing but the driver's view will be somewhere inside the model. So you'll be limited to the external view. 2 Find The Links To All My Mods And Liveries Here (in the gallery) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyeddie Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 A few liveries for the JR Moore Tugboat, all generic so you can add anything you like to the funnels, the hull and superstructure sides are mirror images so unsuitable for adding names etc. Simply drop the file into the Liveries folder. I have included a Default livery to replace the one in the Mod, for some weird reason the default wont show up in the ME drop downs when you have other liveries, it needs the actual texture files in order to work properly. https://www.dropbox.com/s/aod9tf89vyswnn4/jr-more.zip?dl=0 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi. Your skins are great addition. Missing Default entries in ME's paint scheme menu is a common trouble not only ships (or mods) but also aircrafts / cars and ED official contents. I don't know why .... DCS World behaves so. The Liveries / xxx / Default folder doesn't need dds files. OK only with the description.lua file of livery = { } code. I think smart and no loss disk space. Another strange result comes though .... Default item becomes duplicated (same result of choosing each items). 1 Modules: A-10C/II, F-4E, F-5E, F-14A/B, F-15E, F-16C, F/A-18C, AV-8B, FC3, Ka-50-2/3, UH-1H, Mi-8MTV2, SA342, Mi-24P, AH-64D, P-51D Maps: Nevada, PG, Syria, SA, Sinai, Kola, Channel, Normandy2.0 Assets etc.: CA, Sc, WW2AP Mods and Skins in User Files: files/filter/user-is-western0221/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyeddie Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Default duplication - Yes, I'm not sure why that happens, might be something to do with the lua's perhaps, will investigate later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure. I've placed the default armed speedboat next to the Handy Wind and he didn't engage either. But the trawler and the speedboat will engage each other and the trawler will also engage planes (the yak-52 at least...) and ground units. 6 hours ago, crazyeddie said: I have included a Default livery to replace the one in the Mod, for some weird reason the default wont show up in the ME drop downs when you have other liveries, it needs the actual texture files in order to work properly. I noticed this too but it seems to only affect the mission editor. If you select the default skin it will display the default ingame even though it stays "stuck" on a custom one in the ME. But thanks for the tip @western_JPN!

Arrow11 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I could not help but take time out to experience these new mods despite being busy in real life. These are amazing.. especially the drivable ships.. presents a whole new perspective of dcs landscape. Loved the interiors of the tug and the Somali trawler (this one has a Capt. Philips poster) Breathtaking to see the towering troll A gas platform at night which is also an engineering marvel in real life. Learned the hard way that an lng tanker can't be maneuvered like a bmp2 after it collided at Guam port entry. Totally unexpected to see the animation on the windmill repair ship too. Marvelous job as always @Eight Ballthank you very much for this experience. Will post some screenshots later. One small question : AI helicopters approach from the aft of the Troll A platform when setup for landing.. this is the side where the cranes and superstructure are and is usually a profile thats not adopted.. is it possible to change the default approach from the forward (helipad) side or from Port or starboard sides.? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot for the kind words, much appreciated. Looking forward to the pic I'll flip the Oil platform 180° in the next update, should fix the issue with the approach.
