Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill

[Wild_Weasel_31]

Hello, @currenthill. A little bugreport for you. I got a problem with Pantsirs SPAAG not appearing in mission. Tried to reinstall DCS and a mod, they just refuse to spawn on map.

And also there is a problem with MiG-29MU2. They are equipped with compressor protection shields in air ducts, which prevent them from intaking rocks or other stuff during takeoff. In your mod, they stay at closed position during all flight and this is not correct.

Personally, I would love to see a Type 42 Destroyer (batch 3), which must be one of the most attractive Royal Navy designs:  RN Type 42

Hi, do dcs fixed Cruise missiles?

Unfortunately not, let's hope they get it done in the next patch.

Can you explain the workaround you used to get the gear working? did you simply use the Nav Light args in place of the standard Gear ones ( 0/3/5) ?

Send me the question on Discord, it's easier to chat there.

Fantastic KA-52. 

Thank you!

Can't wait for the KA-52, any chance we might see some more naval assets in the future? I would really love to see something like the Type 31 Frigate, that ship's emphasis on LACMs would really round out the British assets

If a suitable model turn up my plan is to make the Type 31.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

Thanks @currenthill for the 2.9 update.  I'm waiting for DCS to fix cruise missiles as I consider upgrading.  Shooting them down - and watching cruise missiles get shot down - is part of the fun.

Getting closer... added the darker grey Ka-52K livery.

Any chance CH, that you could do an Iran Livery?

Iran doesn't operate the KA-52 but a fictional livery would certainly be interesting to see.

Hi CH, a strange thing is happening to me, when I start a mission in the editor I see the ships but when the mission starts the ships disappear and only the planes are visible. I think it's a mod problem. I'll have to do some testing to find the mod that creates this problem.

Make sure you have the latest version of my assets. I run all of them without any conflicts. So if you have my latest releases you can add your other mods one by one to find the culprit.

Assicurati di avere la versione più recente delle mie risorse. Li eseguo tutti senza conflitti. Quindi se hai le mie ultime versioni puoi aggiungere le tue altre mod una per una per trovare il colpevole. 

I found the mod that makes my ships disappear and it's CH MiG-29MU2 1.4.0, I went back to version 2.8 of DCS waiting for ED to fix all the bugs of version 2.9.

@currenthill Having an issue with the M1A2 MBT not spawning, per your instructions I updated the 625 to the latest version but not working, all other assets from you are spawning fine

Grazie per le informazioni!

However, I did another test and inserted the previous version 1.3.0 of your MIG 29 mod and there are no problems with the ships being visible. There's something about your latest version that conflicts.

Both these issues are strange. I just ran a mission with lots of M1A2, ships and the MiG-29MU2 (1.4.0), everything worked perfectly.

Entrambi questi problemi sono strani. Ho appena eseguito una missione con molti M1A2, navi e MiG-29MU2 (1.4.0), tutto ha funzionato perfettamente.

Maybe the conflict is with some mods in the tech folder, I only deactivated the mods in the aircraft folder and then I put them back on a little at a time to find the one that was causing the problem. But as I said, it works with the previous version. I've uploaded the mission for you if you have time to try it.

In this mission I added your MIG29 to test but version 1.3.0 as I told you before.

[Ironghost]

But was the DCS 2.9.1.48335 Open Beta update released yesterday? I wonder if they fixed all the previous bugs!

Hi everyone. I had the same problem a while ago. In the missions that I created with the mission editor and in which I had to deal with ground targets, even though they were present, they then disappeared when taking action. In my case, the culprit was a mod associated with the F-22, to be precise the one called "F-22 External Weapon". I reinstalled the F-22 mod without "F-22 External Weapon" and everything was fine again.

It's definitely not perfect, but I added some illuminated screens for effect.

The Ka-52 asset is more or less feature ready, doing testing now.

Yeah.  EPIC
However I hope Currenthill you are going to make that different kind "pancake" sensor-drum/cylinder under the nose of the 52K, animate windshield-wipers and add bones into those rotorblades.
What is immersive/reality killer to me (about choppers) usually: the absence of bend/flex of rotorblades - when those stopped/relaxed - and the absence of elevated blades(tips) during load/stress. (blade flapping animation)
