DmitriKozlowsky Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Mirage F-1 module screams for African theater. Angola , Mozambique, DRC, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe (former Rhodesia). Except no Libya-Chad conflict or Sahara. DCS does not need yet another sandbox. Late 1960's-early 1990's. Back when South Africa was a loyal anti-communist ally of West. Before it was punished for being so due using Apartheid as justification. No good deed..... doctrine of diplomacy I guess. Good Lord, the module has many variants of F-1. DCS just updated and there are like 20+ variants and subvariants of this type, available as AI. I am curious how many of those are flyable? 4
cmbaviator Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Agreed, Also need TCHAD, France F1 were used over 30 years overthere and more recently in Malia with the serval operation 1

jaguara5 Posted July 24, 2022 Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) It screams also for an Aegean theater. Countless "dogfights" between F1CG and TuAF F-4E(heatbl. we are waiting for you) in the late 70's - 80's. Only the red buttons weren't used. Edited July 24, 2022 by jaguara5 3
Japo32 Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 if ED could make the miracle to share the tools to make custom maps.... 2
jaguara5 Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 (edited) There was an attempt without tools. null Don't know if someone could put for example 2 -3 islands (like Skyros) and water to create a very simplistic theater Edited July 25, 2022 by jaguara5 1
Japo32 Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 (edited) interesting.. so there is a way.. if at least they could share how they did this... Mabye it is just a huge obj with its texture exported? Edited July 25, 2022 by Japo32 1

Mabye it is just a huge obj with its texture exported? IIRC it was something like that. So an island was a big 3d object put on the map. But over a year has passed, haven't heard anything about this project. Will ask in ED' s discord. 1
Ozone1 Posted July 26, 2022 Posted July 26, 2022 (edited) Yeah, I've been harping on about this for years... I'd be happy with anywhere in Sub-Saharan Africa, although I reckon Southern Angola would be the best bet. We should see the MiG-23 and the Mirage III sooner or later, and a Cheetah-C is also in the pipes and there will be no better playground for that. We already have North and South America, Europe, the Caucasus, the Pacific and half Med and Middle East. It's about time we get Africa! You know, the unstable war ravaged continent that has endless mission scenarios... It's such a no brainer, I can't understand why none of the developers have taken more of an interest in it...?
