shu77 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 While It would be great to have them completely modelled, is there any chance to have the barriers removed from the freeway sections of the 3 Freeway runways on Cyprus? I tried launching from the A1 strip last night, and the centre barrier makes it too tight to get an aircraft up or down. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highway_strip 2 Hornet, Super Carrier, Warthog & (II), Mustang, Spitfire, Albatross, Sabre, Combined Arms, FC3, Nevada, Gulf, Normandy, Syria AH-6J i9 10900K @ 5.0GHz, Gigabyte Z490 Vision G, Cooler Master ML120L, Gigabyte RTX3080 OC Gaming 10Gb, 64GB RAM, Reverb G2 @ 2480x2428, TM Warthog, Saitek pedals & throttle, DIY collective, TrackIR4, Cougar MFDs, vx3276-2k Combat Wombat's Airfield & Enroute Maps and Planning Tools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long time ago I mentioned how it is strange we were not getting any SAM fixed positions - back then people said it would never happen in DCS - well Syria map has them, so.. hopefully, those public roads runways will make it to DCS as well. BTW, did you try to remove scenery with trigger - would it remove the road as well? I will have a look myself as well. 2 Intel i7-13700KF :: ROG STRIX Z790-A GAMING WIFI D4 :: Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB :: MSI RTX 4080 Gaming X Trio :: VKB Gunfighter MK.III MCG Ultimate :: VPC MongoosT-50 CM3 :: non-VR :: single player :: open beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recoil16 Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Scenery remove - if it works here - will only work in Singleplayer though, so that is less than ideal. 1 Everybody said: "That's impossible!" Then someone came along who didn't know that and just did it.

Wait, really? I used it to remove an inconvenient hangar on Beirut Intl from a multiplayer mission (large AI aircraft hit their wingtips on it). I haven't seen any issues with this on my dedicated server thus far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shu77 Posted July 26, 2021 Author Share Posted July 26, 2021 As best I can tell looking at google maps street view these stretches are a dual carriage way with a generous shoulder on each side, and no light poles. In game its a dual carriage way but between the Light poles and the bollards on either side my little L-39 felt squashed in. I may have gotten off but I dont think I could have landed. The other thing I noticed (and not being a mission editor I hadnt considered trying to remove scenery) was that the civilian traffic damages the aircraft so without any way to selectively stop the cars its an all or nothing situation. Not sure if anyone has any ideas on tackling that.

Tinman Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Well, for what it's woth, I put it in the wishlist a while back: I'm no expert in the Mission Editor by any stretch of the imagination, but it seems that there is currently no way (besides deactivating it completely) to influence civilian traffic. If there is, I'd be very much interested as well. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoirtel Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Scenery remove zone has worked for me taking out light poles and central barriers. Keeps the road in. I've only done this for single player so I don't know how it translates to MP. I have civilian traffic on high and I didn't see any on this road... I didn't actually think about it then but maybe the scenery remove makes them disappear on contact with the zone? I have also placed objects from the ME in the zone and these do remain so you can build a complete base if you wish. The newer modifiable trigger zones also keep the scenery removal to a better area now as previously I had to use large circles which take out much more than I wanted. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gierasimov Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Nice, it now it is just the case of testing if the real life location is represented in DCS with the same detail, specifically with the elevation in mind along the road strip.

Gierasimov Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I checked for two locations as per the real map and it seems it will be rather bumpy strips in DCS...

Kortana Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) @Bananabrai As far as I am aware, yes, this does work in multiplayer. That said, I have only tested in dedicated servers, so it is possible that it doesn't work if you are hosting and playing on the same machine. Due to some funkiness with my ISP provided modem/router, I can't open the ports needed to test that. Edited June 30, 2022 by Kortana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevertheless, it's already a good message for me, as I have dedi server running soon (too much spare hardware ^^) 1 Alias in Discord: Mailman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to tests this very short while hosting from my game instance, which is still not working. The lamp posts weren't even removed for me as the host of this instance. (Which worked in the past, it was just not working for clients, so in that term it kind of got worse) Besides, to rule out errors, which exact method were you using to remove the objects? I used a spot with a long 4 lane road on the Syria map west-south-west of Nicosia, Cyprus. Trigger "On Mission start" with the action of removing map objects (objects only, not trees) I forgot the precise naming of this action, I cannot post a screenshot atm. I also want to test this with dedicated server again at some point. 1 Alias in Discord: Mailman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
