Seaside Posted August 1, 2022 Posted August 1, 2022 Large parts of some maps are not developed. Has anyone made a mod that has a large ground unit or perhaps very large aircraft carrier modded to look like a runway ? One that could launch any plane ? This would allow us to place AI on airfields not in game. Units placed on them could be destroyed. I think. No damage model because you don't want to destroy the airfield itself. Right now I just stick an aircraft carrier where I want the base but it cannot launch any plane. Kinda off the wall I know but it would give the AI a place to launch and return to.
3WA Posted August 1, 2022 Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) Not that I know of. One of the problems with this sim. There is no real "Editor", besides placement of troops and vehicles. The airfields are literally part of the map, so we can't make like hastily constructed runways or such. At least to my knowledge. I THINK we can make helicopter FARPs. Edited August 1, 2022 by 3WA 1
Mike145 Posted August 2, 2022 Posted August 2, 2022 Hi Seaside, Is this what your looking for? This is how it looks in ME What you see. It is a MOD called FARP_Runway, for the life of me I cannot find it. I`ve tried searching the Forum but came up empty. It maybe part of a larger MOD and I just use this part. You have to place a FARP in place first, then place the runway over it to stop the runway sinking. The MOD is only 2.6MB so if you cannot find the original, I could attach it in a PM if you wish. I use it in a Khe Sanh mission, Either drop supplies or land the C130 MOD on it, full reverse and you can stop before the centre.

Seaside Posted August 2, 2022 Author Posted August 2, 2022 That is exactly what I'm looking for. Would greatly appreciate a pm. Thanks Mark

Garuda01 Posted August 6, 2022 Posted August 6, 2022 Oh, spent ages for looking for something like this, any chance to send it to me? please :))
prccowboy Posted August 6, 2022 Posted August 6, 2022 will AI planes land on this? or is it essentially a flat strip added to a FARP?

I haven't tried with AI, I use the C130 MOD and can land , taxi and take off with it. AMD Ryzen 5, 32 GB DDR4, AMD XFX Radeon RX590 8GB, 27" curved Samsung monitor.

Seaside Posted August 7, 2022 Author Posted August 7, 2022 I believe AI cannot takeoff and land from the runway. Once you choose takeoff or land the editor switches to the nearest map runway. At least that's what happens to me.
