V1 rocket launcher with game 2.9; any updates or mods for it?

[jackd]

Just found the Suntsag v1.3 Mod for the V1 rockets. 

I would like to use it for some wing-flip-it-over sports, like you can in IL2.

Any news yet?

Installed it in my working SavedGames folder .... inside new subfolders CoreMods\WWII Units\WW2 V1 German Rocket Launcher V1.3.

----------------------------------------              

 

Alas It does show up in the editor, according info it should show under Artillery; it does not seem to work with 2.9, or i must be doing something wrong.

Why did you choose that folder path? Suntsag's instructions say the mod folder should go into Saved Games/mods/tech/ location. Just checked - then it shows up in Artillery tab allright, as seen below.

Haven't tried it it still works in 2.9. It's 3 years old mod after all, so chances are limited.

Thanks, it's in the saved games, but obviously in the wrong folder ... must have read the instructions wrong.

But i still cant get it going, installed now here (in my via windows re-located SavedGames folder):

=========================

ADDED:

Created now a different folder in saved games, Artillery, and now they show under missiles:

 

Guess even Einstein would have problems with DCS' file management LoL.

 

ADDED 2, a mission where the V1 takes off with the 4x laucher, i cannor set proper height for the flights, aimed at Dover, but in Dover they wont attack the ground but warble above town. P51 set as player to watch the show and try to shoot sdown these too low flying buggers.  V1_shooting_v1_jj.miz

@Rudel_chw  has the last updated version of this mod 1.5?

[jackd]

i only have v 1.3, dunno if there's a later, and where to get it ...

[jackd]

That's IMO the old version, v1.0, and doesn't seem to work with game v 2.9. v1.3 is the latest i think.

DOWNLOAD LINK V1 Version 1.3 ... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1H_XLsK1D0vAcLMOubzftEYQHlOlbRUSE/view?usp=sharing

ADDED: the link is now dead since a week or so on October 4th 2023 ...

[jackd]

Yep, they fly too low and alas you cannot adjust height with 'enroute' waypoints. In IL2 one can and chase 'em at the proper altitude. But it's great we have any !

Howdy,

 

Does anyone have a way of contacting SUNTSAG ?

the latest version of the V1 works perfectly in Single Player....but the moment I use it in a Mission and post in Multiplayer...the clients cannot enter...or if they do ...Freeze within a few minutes

 

Wondering why this may be

 

Cheers

Hi everyone!

I'm very new to DCS, only been getting into it in the last few weeks. Since I don't really have any experience with simulators or sandbox type platforms, I felt a little overwhelmed at first. I'm 56 and not very computer literate, but I found this community to be very helpful in the forums and creating content like tutorial videos, mods, ect. It's all got me excited and interested so much that after flying a little with the vanilla stuff, I dove right in and purchased the P-51D, WW2 assets pack, and the Channel map. I set straight away on building a mission, I wanted to attack a V1 site. It sucked when I realized the vanilla V1 ramp was static.

Luckily, I found Suntsag's V1 mod and it works awesome. So I created what I think is a pretty cool mission, but it needs tweaked a bit past my knowledge. I'm hoping you guys can check it out and see what needs tweaked. This is the first mission I've created so please be gentle on me. I'm running a very simple setup, no VR or pedals, just a Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas One. Here's some shots of my launch ramp using the units supplied in Suntsag's mod. Let me know what you think.

Thanks

Sorry, it seems I exceeded the upload limit. Here's the mission.

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Edit: It took me a while to fly this and get a perfect result. One of the main problems I have is that one of the B-17G elements always want to deviate their course on their bombing run, they circle around and eventually do the run.

Also, it should be noted, that I suck, so I'm flying in game mode and this is a single player mission.

Hi, does version 1.3 work? I tried but when the V1 starts it immediately crashes on the ramp

[ivo]

solved:

 

Saved Games\DCS\Mods\tech\WW2 V1 German Rocket Launcher V1.3 file V1.lua

change

t_acc = 6.0,

to

t_acc = 2.0,

You installed it wrong. Put the WW2 V1... In the tech folder, not the Artillery folder. The Artillery one is unnecessary and can be deleted.

[jackd]

OK thanks, will try .. report back .. YEP, BINGO !

But only when you the watch on the lower bar, and select Third Reich.

it seems you cant install an item by map click as there is is a * before the name:

The historical filter is not compatible with mods. Having it on hides all mods.

The * is only there to group the mod's units together for visibility and easy picking. Other than that, the * has no other purpose or function and does not prevent you from anything.
