I love your work and the great mods you put out I just have a suggestion. One area in DCS that is non existent is towed howitzers. I would like to suggest something like a static M777 howitzer and something similar for the Red forces side as well. Any older cold war era howitzers would also be much appreciated. Keep up the great work!

What's been holding me from making for example a static M777 is all the crew animations needed. Isn't a normal crew eight guys, that's a massive amount of fiddling with animations. 😅

Making one without the crew would be very easy though, but would feel a little dry.

Its up to you, but honestly I would be more then happy even if there was a crew and they were just static holding some shells or something. Or even no crew where we could just put down some infantry next to the guns. Its just that in DCS we literally have zero towed howitzers and only SPGs (excluding ww2 assets pack). Either way your mods are great and keep up the great work!  

 

Edit: Another idea I just thought of: I'm not sure how difficult it is, but if you had a howitzer that could hook up to a truck or something to tow it that would be really cool

I mean, I'm already so used to seeing a kneeling bearded man with an AK next to a mortar...

Can you leave a guide to scripting the shahed launcher? In my game it just sits there in a nondeployed state.

Go to Misión Editor Forum. Is the same set up as a regular artillery unit

Honestly I'm fine with just a standard until with out artilleryman animations. Most of the static gun systems in dcs are already that way. Plus I usually place infantry in lue for my misisons. It doesn't look convincing up close but it's fine on flir from 15k AGL lol

That's right. But anyway it will be nice to see M777 in DCS. For crew i could use my imagination 😜.

Hi Currenthill going back to the smoke density issue of missiles launched from cells or in general from warships I wanted to ask: Slava class ship Moskva has very thick smoke when missiles are fired from launch tubes, it is not possible to use that Do I smoke with the other units you created? I apologize if maybe I'm inappropriate but it was just my curiosity. I'm sorry that it wasn't created in a more realistic way by the DCS programmers.

The smoke from the Moskva is thick compared to the Gorshkov.

hi, please see attached image.

One of those modules prevented DCS from loading... it crashed to Steam after a few seconds of the small DCS logo 

i did remove DCS and reinstalled, so I began disabling all mods and testing..

I think somethig in last fridays/saturday beta patch is conflicting, neither Steam nor stand alone worked

I had those installed last week of july 2023, before DCS rolled the beta

Hello, I tried to deploy the S-350 system in the mission editor and it only actives when certain aircraft only get close. I would like to fully deploy it, is there a way to make it fully deployable ? S-350 site is already in RED alert

Send me a very simple test mission and I'll take a look.
