Aircraft mods cause supercarrier to be unable to spawn

[bennyboy9800]

With the recent open beta update, a series of aircraft mods have causes the supercarrier to be unable to spawn during the start of a mission. Currently troubleshooting, but would be interested to see if anyone else is able to reproduce this. I narrowed it down to a folder inside savegames/mods/aircraft.

The mods that I have installed that cause this are the Jas39 Community Mod and the Codename Flanker Su30MK mod.

Weapons_AS.lua

This is the affected file for the Codename Flanker mod.

I have the same problem, so you say the Weapons_AS.lua  is the culprit preventing the carrier ( both CVN and LHA ) from spawning?

You sir are correct, I removed the Codename Flanker Mod and everything popped back up. Good work, amazing!

Same here with the Gripen mod.

I love that plane but yes, carrier didn’t spawn.

Now recently with the update, with the Gripen sitting in my saved games folder, I flew my F16c in A2G and the laser guided bombs and the GPS guided bombs would not hit their targets.

I pulled the Gripen out of the saved games folder and my F16c nails targets every time.

I hope the creator of the Gripen mod can do a little tweaking and make it play well with the other planes.

When you say "Spawn" you don't mean dynamically creating it with addGroup() via scripting, you mean just appearing as normal when put down in the mission editor right?

Yep.

In the mission editor,

I placed a carrier with my F-18C on the ramp, saved the mission and started it. When the mission started, my plane had crashed into the sea, no carrier in site and the mission log showed I had crashed and died.

After removing the Gripen from my DCS saved games/mods/aircraft folder, I started up DCS, loaded that same mission with the carrier and F18C and like magic, there I am on the carrier ready on the cat.
