Taz1004 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) This is reduced/removed IFLOLS glow FOR SUPERCARRIER ONLY. Only one texture file is edited but due to the way DCS works, I have to replace the whole 500MB texture zip file. This is NOT IC SAFE. Reduced probably works better for 2D and high resolution HMD such as G2 or Vive Pro 2. Removed I found to be better for older HMD with lower resolution. I use Removed on my Vive Pro 1.

fagulha Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Taz1004 you´re a life saver. Now i can rely properly in IFLOLS in my traps, thank you! Feedback: - for day landings the Reduced works best for me (Valve Index user here) but at night is a little blurrier to use; - For night traps i will use the Removed option because it´s perfect to use. During day landings i cannot see the Green lights (Datum lights) at all, only the orange ball (meatball). So, i will use both versions, Reduced and Removed, between day/night missions. Awesome work and great idea creating 2 versions Reduced and Removed. Thank you once again. F. 1 - "Don't be John Wayne in the Break if you´re going to be Jerry Lewis on the Ball".

I use OVGme for mods that need to be installed in DCS core folder. So, i recommend doing the same. With a click you can enable/disable any mods (useful before an update). 1 - "Don't be John Wayne in the Break if you´re going to be Jerry Lewis on the Ball".

Mistermann Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) Right. Never use anything BUT ovgme. Still need to know where to tell it to install. The answer is base for anyone wanting to know.

Tommy_CVW-66 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) I made it work with the current version of DCS, 2.8.1.34667 at the time of writing. Re-uploaded to a hosting site because the download from Taz is really slow.. Link to download Link deprecated overtime.

Fisherman82 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Do you mind saying what filenames you edited in the Zip-file? I save all mods I download and then I could only save those files instead, guess it would be like 5 MB instead of 500 MB. Are you planning to update the removed version also?

Sure, so the file is in: \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\CoreMods\tech\USS_Nimitz\Textures\USS_Nimitz.zip Just rename and replace the attached files in that zip and you'll get reduced or removed. I reuploaded it because it's way easier to use with OVGME. I can upload the complete removed one for OVGME as well if wished.

I created corresponding liveries that contain the textures for the USS Nimitz 71. all others are linked to this one. there are two variants per USS Nimitz IFLOFS_LIGHT_REDUCED and IFLOFS_LIGHT_REMOVED. these must then be selected in the ME. extract the contents of the zip to CoreMods/tech/USS_Nimitz/Liveries/. It's the Bano_RGYB from Taz1004. with the IFLOLS_CVN_Base I made the lamp glasses more contrasting. tech_USS_Nimitz_Liveries.zip 2.2 MB · 6 downloads Hi. Thanks so much for doing this, I'm sure it will be perfect when I get it running, but they are not showing up as liveries in the ME. The path is correct. What am I missing? EDIT: I don't know if you ever tested your stuff but it's almost all wrong. USS_CVN_71 - is wrong; it's just CVN_71 - this means the paths in ALL the description.lua's are all wrong, as too are the folder names. After fixing all of that I have it working as an OVGME Mod - at least as far as picking it from the livery screen. I've not tested in out in terms of your .dds and .tga being 'correct'. Here's the OVGME mod if anyone wants to save the work of unmangling the previous upload: DCS CORE - IFLOS Bloom.zip Edited January 24, 2023 by Elphaba 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elphaba Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 It would be even better if this was a SAVED GAMES mod that could be combined with other USS_Nimitz liveries i.e. HD Deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulkas Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) Anyone can confirm that this mod has stopped working with the last DCS version? It looks like it makes the meatball stop to show all together. It looks like the glow has been reduced in the last version of DCS, so now I can (barely) judge my altitude, but I still would rather have no glow at all, all RL videos I have seen show a crisp meatball.
