You can also simply copy the png of the copilot

I'll try to insert the pilot in the F14, but nothing is sure 

 

 

Now, I understand why the pilot's body is not visible inside, in a jet everything is much tighter, you don't have access to the interstages and controls.

 

and seen from the outside, it comes in superposition of the existing ...

Yeah I did read that it’s not a simple process. Thankyou for your efforts Tanuki44

No worries, this allowed me to discover another method to link an object to a aircraft

I would think the reason is that Heatblur simply has not developed the in-cockpit pilot yet. I cant think that they wont since they have one in the Viggen. If you need to flick a switch that is obscured by the body you can just turn it off with a keybind. I have a USB pedal for it because I really want it on as much as possible in VR.

Ok, I don't think the method used in the mod to 'hook' the pilot can be done on the fly via a keyboard shortcut.

In the A-E4 mod, the keyboard shortcut has been disabled because it is not functional.

Was going to try this mod but after installation I get a "not authorized" error at the start of DCS and can't use it in ME.

Any tricks here ?

A silly question, did you installed the mod in your savegames folder?, usually this happens when you install tany mod in the main game 

• Extract the ‘Mods’ folder from the zip file into C:\Users###\Saved Games\DCS\ folder (Steam) or C:\Users###\Saved Games\DCS.OpenBeta\ (Standalone if Open Beta installed)
• You may require the latest C++ redistributables for this mod to work properly
• If you use SRS, copy and paste the “DCS-SimpleRadioStandalone.lua” file to “C:\Users###\Saved Games\DCS\Mods\Services\DCS-SRS\Scripts\” - BACK UP THE ORIGINAL!
• In the mission editor, make sure the Historical Filter is disabled

Great job! It could be an official part too, I wish that :).

Can I turn on / off 3D figures from pilot view? Personally I dont like 3D body. Id like to use only for external view.

[Tanuki44]

No, as it's an add-on it's all or nothing

Ok, thx for rply but to be clear - can I edit something to see only on external view or it isnt possible (sa as you wrote)?

I mainly fly in VR and characters cover some of the buttons and for obvious reasons they do not have animations, so in VR it looks like the body is going into the stick, collective etc.

Tested, however I see always the same texture:

Example from "default" skin:

Quote

livery = {
    {"Mat_arm",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_arm_pilot_oliv", true};
    {"Mat_arm.003",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_arm_copilot_oliv", true};
    {"Mat_helmet_nvg",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_helmet_nvg_withe", true};
    {"Mat_helmet.002",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_helmet_withe", true};    
    {"Mat_body",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_body_oliv", true};
    {"Mat_boots.003",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_boots_black.png", true};
    {"Mat_boots",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_boots_black.png", true};
    {"Mat_hand",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_hand_grey.png", true};    
}

name = "default"

Any idea?

[Tanuki44]

The only solution would be to put the head without the body, but it will do weird when you turn your head and see your binomial without a body  or outside seen in the side.

For deliveries, they are linked to those of the H60-L, they are not refreshed in the ME, unless you remove one of the two pilots and you put it back ...

But even without that, they will appear correctly in the mission.

Test it with the US Coast Guard livery

Finally got it.

Here is my entry (dark grey helmet and green suit):

default skin:

Quote

livery = {
    {"Mat_arm",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_arm_pilot_oliv", true};
    {"Mat_arm.003",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_arm_copilot_oliv", true};
    {"Mat_helmet_nvg",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_helmet_nvg_darkgrey", true};
    {"Mat_helmet.002",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_helmet_darkgrey", true};    
    {"Mat_body",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_body_oliv", true};
    {"Mat_boots.003",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_boots_black.png", true};
    {"Mat_boots",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_boots_black.png", true};
    {"Mat_hand",    DIFFUSE            ,    "tex_hand_grey.png", true};    
}

name = "default"

Id like to see those 3D models (but as external only) as default crew too (and +1 for in cargo station).

Thank You!

Cool.. Please make the Pilots animated... (Headmovement... )

[Tanuki44]

This suit is nice 

WIP, but the transition between Blender to 3DSMax does not work well for the moment.

Oooh, is that the old "chocolate chip" desert uniform?!?!  So cool retro!!!

 

Is anyone still using that camo pattern? Maybe Jordan or Egypt?

And pls do second option (pilots are present on external model only, so like in many DCS modules), if its possible for sure :)!

[Tanuki44]

As long as the 3D model is not compatible with the Mod UH-60L, there is no possibility.
We must wait until it is, then Kinkkujuustovoileipä will decide if he integrates it in his mod
