Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill

[BlackFalco]

Hey folks, did anyone got problmes with cruise missiles ( from CH pack ) missing targets lately?

I tried with cruise missiles from core game and they hit, CH pack won't , they'll just miss it for some feets only.

Is it known?

[cao990]

CH has been silent for two months now, and I really don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. I'm a little uneasy in my heart. Let's see if the next ED update can bring some good news. In short, I hope everything goes smoothly and safely for him.

Hello all,

Because of the lack of choice in the DCS Mission Editor personnel object list I am interested in learning how to make, or modify, static human figure mods for DCS. I have never modded and so I would begin with static 3d figures and, hopefully progress in due course to static humans with the kind of limited animation we see in some of DCS Carrier personnel. I feel that the realism of DCS is compromised by the lack of unarmed humans doing such tasks as ground  marshalling aircraft, standing, lying, sitting and crouching, stretcher-bearing.. (and the list could go on forever). The placement of such statics would greatly enhance realism in mission making. I have floated the idea of ED adding such figures to ME over the past few years, but with no response.

Can anyone tell me if there is  anywhere I could find tutorials or guidance for the above purposes?

Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post on this subject.

Best regards,

Mich.

If you go up a level in the mods forum, there are multiple discussions on the subject.

Thank you MAXsenna.

Hello CH, i wanted to know if you were planning on doing a french pack ? I know the Frenchpack 5.0 exist, however it lacks really modern stuff (like 2025+), Air defenses (like the SAMP/T / NG, VL- MICA / NG, Crotale NG (VT1) and Mistral 3) and Ships.

France has a lot of unique assets avaible, and i think i can tell i know the frenches vehicules, ships and plane fairly well, so if you plan on doing a french pack and have questions or hesitation about them, don't hesitate to ask me 

here is a list of potential vehicles you could add in a french pack :

-Aircrafts : 

Mirage 2000D RMV (with STORM SHADOW (SCALP-EG in french), AASM and MICA IR)

A330 MRTT (Transport an refueling 

Super Etendard Modernisé

nEUROn (stealth drone prototype)

Maybe an AI Rafale C and M (anyway i know you only makes AI)

EC665 Tiger HAD blk.3 (with Mistral 3 and Akheron LP)

NH 90TTH (transport helicopter)

NH 90NFH (Transport, radar, anti-ship and anti-submarine helicopter)

Ground units :

SAMP/T and SAMP/T NG (the only differences is that the NG use a brand new Groundfire 300 radar and Aster 30B1-NT with PIF-PAF system, but it can't be modeled in DCS i believe)

VL MICA and VL MICA NG (the only differences is that the MICA NG has a better seeker and more fuel with a double stage booster (for both IR and EM variants)

Leclerc EVO (since you put an Abrams X and some proto to other packs, i think it would be cool to have the Leclerc EVO)

VBMR Griffon (french APC)

VBMR-L Serval (a smaller griffon, however there is a version with an anti-drone 30mm and another with 2 roof mounted Mistral 3 wich could be interesting)

EBRC Jaguar (French recon vehicules with a 40mm gun and 2+2 Akheron MP F&F GGM)

VBL 2 (French scout car with upgraded engine)

CAESAR MK.2 6X6 (Modernised CAESAR artillery system)

Ships : 

FDA Horizon (D620  & D621) (2 76mm, 2 20mm, 48 A50 VLS, usually equiped with 32 Aster 30 and 16 Asters 15, 8 MM 40B3C)

FDA RMV (D620 & D621) (the RMV program would add the Aster 30 B1NT, a brand new mast (probably the same as the FDI) with SeaFire 500 radar and maybe 16 more A50 VLS and a potential replacement of 16 A50 by 16 A70 to equipe FMAN/SPEAR 5 or Aquila, so he potentially will have 16 A70 and 48 A50) 

FREMM ASW (D650-D655) ( 1 76mm, 2 20mm, 8 MM 40B3C, 16 A70 with MdCN cruise missile (FMC and FMAN in the future (french name for the SPEAR 5)) and 16 A43 with Aster 15 (D651 and D655 have been upgrade with 16 A50 with Aster 30 instead of 16 A43)

FREMM DA (D656 & D657) (1 76mm, 2 20mm, 8 MM40B3C and 32 A50 with Aster 30)

FDI (D660-D664) (1 76mm, 2 20mm, 8 MM 40B3C and 16 A50 (maybe 32 and a LMP in the future))

FLF Lafayette  (F710-F714) (1 100M, 2 20mm, 8 MM 40B3C, (F711 &F714 : 1 Crotale (8+16 VT1) ), (F710, F712 & F713 2 SIMBAD RC (2x2 reloadable Mistral 3)))

PHA Mistral (L9013-L9015) (french LHD with amphibious capacity, 16 to 32 helos, 2 SIMBAD (2x2 reloadable Mistral 3), 2 20mm )

Charle De Gaule (R91) (up to 48 Aircrafts, 32 A43, 2x Sadral (2x6 reloadable Mistral 3), 11 20mm )

PA-NG (R92) (48 A43, 4 40mm, 4-8 20mm, maybe 2-4 LMP)


The list is pretty long, but there is things like the LHD and carriers i put but didn't really expected you to make since you never did in any other pack and is propably a lot of works. However, there is still more vehicules but i think these are the "essential" or at least the usefull one.

 

Hope my suggestion will be seen, and hope even more it will convince you to make a pack !

Even if you don't, please continue your incredible work, your packs add so much to DCS, Have a great day

   

PS : sorry if my english is bad, hope i won't hurt your eyes too much

Still nothing from CH. I really hope the CH and his family are all doing okay! It's NOT NORMAL to hear nothing from CH, CH isn't like that, in my opinion. I kinda got to know him from donating money for all the 3D Modals CH uses to create his mods. I really hope that the DCS World Community will hear something from CH soon.

Respectfully,

Is currenthill still making new mods ? 

Edited April 11 by Shrike88

[EchoOneOne]

I guess he is now working for ED.

[CommandT]

Would certainly be great to have all of CH's mods be part of the core DCS. An update would certainly be appreciated

No, this is undesirable, as it would take away CH's flexibility to deliver or modify its packs as it sees fit. And we'd have to wait weeks or months for an update from ED.

[asdadasdrevdga]

When will you make S-21 Scarab A in Russian tochka-y? We have been waiting from dcs for 11 years, but it's just empty promises, maybe you will make it? Are there any plans to make it at all? Or for you it's old and iskander m better?

[SUHANG]

can anyone tell me which directory exactly should I install the RWR and HARM ID file, and the AIM-174B for FA18C file?

thanks

[antiload]

Install into the DCS core folder (not saved games)

\RWR and HARM IDs by CH 1.5.0\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit

[SUHANG]

@antiload So you mean the rout folder? C：DCS world\

Perhaps @currenthill is in a situation where he can't post here because something magical is in the works.

No matter what you are going to cook, we are sure it would be kind of huge step forward of overall CA for DCS
