Cold War assets mod v 1.2

[Stratos]

Those protoypes are amazing! Hope that Thunderwarrior becomes flyable at one point.

But I have to add that I just returned from London, where I bought a book for the hype created by @tripod3 Hope you can finish this as flyable and add the B-57 Canberra too, really badly needed planes!

Missiles pulled out of their compartments.

Unfortunately, this animation does not work in battle; the doors are only open in the weapon selection menu.

@Geschirre:  can you provide your update description.luas for the Tu-128?

@Tripod: a really fine mod. some glitches (superficial) though:

tu-128: luas are not correct, missile attachment strange - missiles too low and to much to the rear (how can i change that ? lua-entries ?)

some pilots seem too miniscule (b-58 ea.)

but: marvellous, many thanks

Amazing!

[Guest]

Thank you for this awesome mod, tripod3!!

 

Unfortunately, the liveries aren't working for the Tu-128M.  

[Geschirre]

Use this, adjust accordingly.  This is for "USSR 11".

Quote

livery = {
    {"Material_0.001",    DIFFUSE            ,    "Tu_128_fuz_11", false};
    }

name = "USSR 11"

 

[Guest]

No good.  Still not working.

Works for me, works for LCO489, works for other people.  Could you be less specific? 

For instance... where did put the lines?

[Guest]

I've tried that method and I've also tried this:

livery = {
    {"Tu_128_fuz_1.dds",    DIFFUSE            ,    "Tu_128_fuz_11.dds", false};
    }

name = "USSR 11"

Still no good. I put this in the .lua file for the Livery folder.

Hello Bunsen! The encyclopedia is not intended for viewing liveries. But there is a way for you to see them. You go back one step with the left arrow and then back to the Tu-128M. Then you will see the next livery. You can repeat this step as many times as you like until you have seen all the liveries.

Thank you for the feedback, everyone.

I copied and pasted the text and modified it.  But I can't see the liveries in any mode, including Mission Editor.

change the folder in the liveries to "Tu_128M"

[LCO489]

[Guest]

Thank you, Urbi!  That worked to the point that I can see the drop down liveries.  But for USSR 11, the red star doesn't appear.

For all the other liveries, I get the green, "No texture".

You have to change it for every livery.  See how "USSR 12" isn't "USSR 11".

Yes.  I have done that.  It's working for all the liveries now, but the Tu-128M Fuselage DDS files for the version of the mod doesn't have the red stars on the tail or wings.  I'll figure it out.

Thank you all for all your help.

It doesn't have the stars in the current version. I did it myself as above. Will provide to Tripod3 to the next patch if needed.

Ah ok.  That makes sense.  I can't wait to see this amazing mod become even better.

Thank you for your help, everyone!

Hi,

@Bunsen

ypart of the problems: the naming of the various texture-files is somewhat inconsistent, so you have to make sure each of your description.lua points to an existing file.

@tripod

your code-lines did the job, my tu-128m.lua was missing the positions for the missiles.

thank you, sir.

Interesting book. If anyone wants to see it before purchasing, here is a scan in medium quality.

[sinzov]

maybe this is the wrong thread, but speaking of cold war aircraft - how about a soviet airliner ? the Tu-126 sure would make an excellent one

is there a decent way to get rid of all that awacs-stuff of the Tu-126 and to rebuild the aircraft as  a Tu-114 ?
