Hi CH,

Love your work even though you are EVIL for giving us the Pantsir..... But I digress.

Quick question, 

You have HARM codes. What are they and how do we use them?

Those are used so that DCS cand recognize them on you plane RWRs mainly. Same for SAMs, you need to know based on their "signature" code what is looking after you! Could be used in conjunction with  the mod in the link below, but you need to merge the content!

I love your stuff CH, but is it possible to remove the country restrictions on units to roleplay equipment being sold to other nations? 

Thanks

No need, just use CJTFRed and CJTFBlue

That is correct. I thought he did a very good job and the project is interesting. So I gave him permission and help out where I can.

 

Help him with a cleaner/not opaque cockpit window glasses. The mod is almost perfect but the windows are too much opaque.

Go into the file called "Database" in the country folder from CH, open the IFV, Navy or Vehicles folder, look for the item you'd like to change, find this line "GT.Countries = {"Germany","Ukraine"}", it's near the bottom of the lua file .  Add three dashes in front of GT.Countries, like this ---GT, that will make the game ignore the countries listed, save the file.  Alternatively you can add countries like this,  GT.Countries = {"Finland","Germany","Ukraine"}.  Doesn't have to be in alphabetical order unless you have OCD.

Hi, I know I can do this, it's what I currently do. But it get's tiresome to have to do this for 80+ units everytime the country pack is updated. Plus other people may not be as comfortable editing luas. I'm happy whatever CH decides to do regarding this as his mods are incredible, it would just be a little quality of life improvement.

As you might imagine I'm doing a lot of testing, especially units vs units. So I switch their faction around all the time. And I do it exactly as @Abburo, by using the 'Combined Joint Task Forces Blue' and 'Combined Joint Task Forces Red'. Every unit, no matter the configured country, will show up if you use these two.

Another great advantage of using this method is that you don't risk messing up your DCS installation, we have enough of those issues already.

Hi Again CH, i'm seeing GLSDB passing over the intended target and not hitting it when using fire on point it is a known bug?

Doesn't seem to be any issues when I test it.

Yes please! Wish we had the Pakistani ones for the JF17.

Yes, at first, I wasn't entirely sure what I was looking at - I knew that Boeing had the Powered JDAM, and there were proposals for a Powered JSOW (program shelved in favor of JASSM and LRASM procurement).

I'm also aware that other than the Ukrainian MiG-29s, AASMs may be used by Su-24s - do you have plans to equip the Su-24 with the AASM?

I've added the Su-27P1M to the Ukraine pack. It features the slightly upgraded N001 radar and the confirmed western weaponry like the JDAM-ER, AGM-88 HARM and ADM-160B MALD.

This is awesome, and we look forward to hearing more about your aircraft mods.  I personally look forward to the modified B-1 with the LRASM and JASSM the most - you have your work cut out, and I wish you all the best every step of the way. 

[Chris22]

Will you make a Tos-1a in the future?

Just edit the payload files to have the LRASM/JASSM (Saved Games > MissionEditor > UnitPayloads > B-1B.lua)

Paste this in there for the LRASMs:

 

        [1] = {
            ["displayName"] = "Anti-Ship Strike",
            ["name"] = "Anti-Ship Strike",
            ["pylons"] = {
                [1] = {
                    ["CLSID"] = "{B21_AGM-158C*4}",
                    ["num"] = 2,
                },
                [2] = {
                    ["CLSID"] = "{B21_AGM-158C*4}",
                    ["num"] = 3,
                },
                [3] = {
                    ["CLSID"] = "{B21_AGM-158C*4}",
                    ["num"] = 1,
                },
            },
            ["tasks"] = {
                [1] = 32,
                [2] = 30,
            },
        },

Quick status update. I'm working on the US pack update, but some of the assets take some time, especially the ships. I will therefore most likely release an updated Ukraine pack update before the US pack. It will contain fixes for some issues and a couple of new assets like the BRDM-2L1. 

[tripod3]

Any chance future UA updates will contain Tochka-U SSM?
