neither do I, as the only info you provided is "Can see VSN F4 at startscreen of dcs, but aircraft dont works."  All I can say is that this Mod does work on my DCS

No, I tested it with my own mission.

Did anyone every make an RAF Camo skin for this F4 Mod, I seem to remember seeing one a long time ago but see no trace of it now. ?

No, sorry, I have not seen any RAF liveries, the closest is this for the RN:

 

 

The image shows all skins I have collected for this bird (in addition to those that came with the Mod).

Hi! I installed this mod yesterday on the latest version of DCS. I also installed both skin packs for the F4B/C.The external fuel tank textures appear to be missing from both aircraft in all the skins. I get a green missing texture on the fuel tanks instead. Anyone know how to fix this?

maybe you have a conflict with another Mod? .. the fuel tanks look fine on my DCS:

Does anyone know how to get into and use PLM mode like I see is used in Growling Sidewinder videos?

Example:

 

 

[openfalcon68]

Map a key to toggle PLM mode on and off. I have the 3 key mapped for it. When PLM is on It will automatically lock a target on the Phantoms nose within 5 to 10 miles.

Hope it helps.

Thank you. I narrowed down the issue to the additional  VSN_F4C skins I downloaded from the website where I got the mod. When I uninstalled them, the fuel tank textures appeared correctly. With the additional skin packs installed, only the fuel tanks are affected. I installed just the VSN_F4B skins, and the tanks show up correctly. If I install the F4C skins together or by itself, the issue reappears. Anyone else have an issue just with the F4C skin pack?

Did someone was able to take off from forrestol? i always blackout and then dead in the water. I can't also take off from supercarrier module, cause my nose landig gear collapse when i am on my way to catapult.

 

Also i made a few test flights, and i was unable to fly it. AOA is minimum 10 degrees. What speed is normal for this plane?

Hello SignorMagnifico! If you have taken over the liveries from my Dropbox for the C, the "BIN-200" folder is part of it. There are textures that are linked to this folder in the descrition.lua. check the description.lua to see if that is correct.

Hi! Yes, I have the BIN-200 folder included in the VSN_F4C folder. I see there are function calls to that folder as well. 

I downloaded both sets of skins and the mods from here. https://filehorst.de/folder.php?key=duuqITUb

Hi, still cannot get this mod to work, I know it says standalone but, do we need anything else to make it work?

I’m quoting the Mod’s author:

"For the F-4B/C, no, nothing is needed. For everything else, FC3 is needed. We plan on releasing the F-104C/G/S and NF-104A as standalone end of this fall. When that happens we will have two standalone mods. Next in line will be the 105D "

Thanks to the whole team for this fantastic Phantom

 

[yufighter]

I see F4J in the pictures, how do you get it? Is there an F4_J.edm file?

If someone could give me some assistance, I would greatly appreciate it. I have downloaded the F4 module into my users folder… Aircraft folder. When I start off DCS the f4 isn’t avail to select when I am looking to fly instant action or mission or campaign. I haven’t looked at mp yet. Any idea what I may have done wrong?  TIA!

the mod does not include missions, open the mission editor and create a simple mission with the VSN F-4 just to confirm it is working.
