Apparently this still requires FC modules? When trying it from mission editor, it just spawns on map.

Here is the patch I was talking about:

Extract it and copy the files and folders in the mod-root folder of the VSN_F104G.
That should fix your problems with the "C".

Hi there.

Just saw it, when you click the AAA/DEF button on the AN/APR-25 console, the RWR-repeater will not show any AAA-Radars, since it is a "declutter" function.

May-be that helps somebody

Cheers,
PeeJott

I want some of the manual pages available on the kneeboard, I converted those pages to .PNG but where do I put them?

Copy the files to

C:\Users\YourName\Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard\VSN_F104C

If not exists,create this folder.

Each file has to be as png or jpg with 768 x 1024 pix.

Can we get a version of the previous mod with the 104G and NF-104 that will live side by side with the 104C standalone?

If I activate both I get all sorts of issues.

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen.

Finally we were able to release the VSN F-104C standalone in an early-access state (V0.99). You can get it here 

https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=kZkMk6Z2ugmw0cKA0X0mMoNv8AboVB1hszV

or, as an alternative, here:

There is also a little "manual" that will help you find your ways around the cockpit as well as we've got one Test-Mission that tells you how to start the "Zipper".

Cheers and enjoy the F-104C,

VSN-Team.

 

Thank you very much for the mod. It runs well so far as i've tried and looks VERY promising ! Quality stuff !!!

I'll be sure to try all of it as much as i can.

Here is one of my first flights in it:

I lost control at around angels 35 completing an Immelmann, but regained control and landed

Either you try the Patch or redownload the updated VSN_F104G mod here:

I can’t control the nose wheel steering. I tried L-Alt Q, but it doesn’t work, and the wheels remain stationary. Any suggestions?

Yep. Press and hold the nws-button. Then use rudder to steer.

If you let go of the nws-button, the nws stays in that direction until you tap that Button again.

I believe you can't, the C version comes with it

 

 

 

Love that mod, great job  There suppose to be a manual that comes with the mod (I think), where can I find it ?

Thanks, Marc..

Not sure if the probe can be removed.

But early Cs had no probe.

I guess you have to check the Arguments in modelviewer2

Hello, will the VSN F-104 G also become standalone like the F-104 C?

[stockfisch]

I am puzzled. In the video ‚F-104C mod - first flight‘ of cesarferrolho it seems to be a F-104G model with the long rudder and without probe. The cockpit is clickable. Is it some kind of a ‚franken plane‘? Would love to combine the exterior model of the F-104G with the F-104C standalone clickable cockpit features. Is it possible?

 

[Saguanay]

Or wait until they release the G with the click pit?

[AndyJWest]

I've been trying out the C model. Looks are excellent, but I'm a little unsure about the flight modelling. I can understand it being sensitive in pitch, but it seems to actually be divergent in roll: trimmed hands off, it will fairly rapidly roll off to one side or another, to an extent that I'd have thought unacceptable in a real aircraft. Is stability augmentation working? Turning roll augmentation off via the switch seems to make no difference.
