USA will begin deploying cruise missiles and hypersonic systems in Germany in 2026. These weapons becomes legal for modding!

 

Cruise missiles and stuff as part of the Typhon system (Tomahawk, SM-6 for example)

and probably the Long Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW)

Try GT_t.WS_t.ship_bazalt or basalt (there is exactly GT_t.WS_t.ship_granit in game resources)

Hi All. Does anyone know when the next DCS update is being released? There should have been an update last week, but still no update!

I'm super excited to see the German assets Pack being released, it's going to be awsome!

Thanks,

Let’s see if they can pull it off.

Humm... I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t feel the big update coming.
I hope currenthill doesn’t pull his hair out.

Are there any research results already?

Everytime a new DCS update is released I make a compare to see which files have been changed. This way I can find patterns of changes rather than test every single asset individually. 

One thing I noticed with this update is that ED seem to be locking stuff down even more, making it even harder for modders. A lot of the LUAs are encrypted since long time ago, and sincea couple of updates ago all the new ED assets are also encrypted (including the EDMs).

With this update they seem to have removed access to the weapon schemes also. This means it's going to be much harder to create custom weapons. Modders are still relying a lot on old unencrypted 2.5x LUAs, and since ED are encrypting more and more parts of DCS, I'm running out of ideas of how to find information on how to implement new features.

How do mods work?

Most nervous question is an old (classic) Iskander still missing its targets?

I wrote to ED what their policy is regarding modders, why resources are constantly being closed, what will happen next. I don't think I'll be given a meaningful answer, but I hope for something.

I did some tests of the MIM-104 assets and found that the LTAMDS (both stationary and HEMTT) has issues since the DCS update.

The other radars, launchers etc works fine. I'll include a fix for the LTAMDS in the next US pack update. But until then, here are the updated files to fix the issue.

MIM104_LTAMDS.lua

MIM104_LTAMDS_HEMTT.lua

Was a bit dissapointed about the available assets, so i gave your mods a try.
German assets show up, but only default liveries.
US - why are there two asset packs? - I could not find anything but the ATGM soldier with no liveries at all.

Any issues with the actual update what causes that? Extracted all into mod/tech as stated.

Tech folder looks as follow

null

EDIT:
found the US air defense units, but no shapes in the previewer. No armored units, nothing...

One of them is the base pack with all the necessary files and the other one is a patch to apply on the base pack. There should only be one "CH Military Asset Pack USA x.x.x" folder in your tech folder.

Thats it, THX!
But still no desert sceme for the germans. Will fiddle further around with it.
