Civil aircraft mod + openbeta 2.7

[Spt]

I just saw that fans of all Airbus an Boeing don't move in DCS openbeta 2.7.

I have the last version of mod : v0.86 

There is no problem with propeller 

 

Do you have the same issue, and does someone have a fix ?

thanks

Please can you explain to me exactly how you install this mod. I have the templates installed and everything populates the Marianas map except the civilian aircraft and when I go to fly the mission it''s not there.  Thanks TC

My mod is installed in:

Hi recently downloaded the mod, and the names appear onscreen and in the mission editor, but there are no airplane models attached. I just see the label flying around.  I set perms and did everything else I could think of, but nothing help.

 

This is the correct location, right?

Hi, @Rex .

 

Do you download " V0.86" 7zip archive correctly ? not "V0.81" one ??

 

V0.86 archive might have LAU files dated 28/05/2020 and DC_10.lua was added.

 

 

and +1.

V0.86 is still not fully compatible to DCS World 2.7 .

Patch for it ... is published here in DCS forum.

Hi @western_JPN - good question, let me check.  Thanks BTW.

Hmm, I don't see the DC-10 so I must have the wrong version. Thank you so much!

Edit to add again:

 

Holy crap, I have version 0.77.7 ... thanks again.

[Rex]

FYI: I didn't have the easiest time finding it (I actually got .77 from doing a forum search last week), so in case someone else stumbles onto this thread, I found 0.86.7 here:

It's in German (or something that's not English) so I had to click around a bit to get the download, but it wasn't too hard.

Update: Sweet! It works and it looks awesome! Thank you.

The version 0.86 is fully or partially compatible with DCS 2.7? I downloaded here at work and I'll test tonight at home.

Totaly compatible (for what I test it), works fine on 2.7.6.12852 for me

Thanks. I'll create some escort missions with these planes. I downloaded the Military Aircraft Mod too. Looks very good.

This may be a known thing. I have used the mod in a multiplayer game to help force VID and such among players... One of them was shot down by AI (no idea why on that front either) but one that was a cargo plane that players have to intercept and engage worked great, looked amazing, flew very well and BOOM! All players booted from the server, which did not crash, upon impact of the sidewinder and breakup of the plane. I forget which one exactly but can find out if that becomes an issue....

 

Is this normal?

 

Also, how does one get the extra liveries to be viewable by other players in a multiplayer enviroment?

 

GREAT mod, very much needed!

Is anyone able to place the B-747 on an airport in the Syria map? Other than having it start on the runway, I can't get it to start on the ramp without an error message about "no free airport". It works just fine on the NTTR, Caucus, Persian Gulf and Marianas maps.

Syria map's airport parking areas have too narrow width X length tolerance that aircrafts can spawn or taxi-to.

Even stock AI aircrafts, B-52 and Tu-160 (smaller than B747 IRL) are treated as "No free airport" in Syria map because of their wing_span or length values are over-sized than the map's tolerance.

 

When we edit B_747.lua file's "wing_span =" value and "length =" value smaller like C-17 or KC-135's ones , some available parking spots will come.

Too small values brings crashing with buildings / light poles .... hard to balance safety and availability in researching those best values for Syria map.

Thank you for that explanation Western_JPN.

Someone will tell me what is going on with machine liveries in multiplayer missions? I put in the air or at the airports B737 or other A320. I choose specific liveries for them and after launching the mission they are in completely different ones? Can something be done about it?

I had a similar problem with same with SP; it was defaulting to Air Mexico in the game.  In my case It was linked to me having changed another option like country after selecting the livery, so I had to go back in to the ME and change it back.  Not sure if it's the same as your MP issue but hope it helps.
