Nialfb Posted July 9 Posted July 9 (edited) Hi Guys Recently I have noticed that the M92 Fire Extinguishers (01 to 03) all float above the ground! These are the fire extinguishers from the Massun92 Asset Pack, since incorperated into DCS. Any ideas?

razo+r Posted July 9 Posted July 9 Looks more like you placed it too close to another asset, making it spawn on top of it. Spread the units a bit more apart to see if that fixed it.

Nialfb Posted July 9 Author Posted July 9 I deleted the group from the Afghanistan mission and copied exactly the same group from a Caucuses mission, without moving anything, and it all works fine. No more floating fire extinguishers! 1 Game setup - I9-13900K, 3000 MHz 24 Core 32 Logical Processors, NVIDIA RTX 4090, 42” ASUS 4K OLED monitor, TM HOTAS Warthog, TM TPR Rudder pedals, Bigscreen Beyond VR.

crazyeddie Posted July 9 Posted July 9 It looks like you have placed it on top of, or too close to another object ?? Just a wild guess from what I can see in that image. 1

Just a wild guess from what I can see in that image. I tried moving the fire extiguisher all over the place but it was still floating above the hard standing.I ended up copying and pasting the smae group from another mission and it woked fine. I also noticed that in the Afghanistan Map, at the Jalalabad airport, if I put any personel too close to hard standing markings, they appear under the markings in the mission editor!

I have some strange things happen on the Afghanistan map! I got the fire extinguishers to behave afer I copied and pasted them from the Caucuses map. See my post above, I have instances where personel hide under hard standing markings! Also, despite there being a Fix Point in the mission, I am only invited to correct the INU on the way back from a mission and not on the way out. In the Caucuses map I get the notice to correct the INU whenever I am close to a Fix Point. 1 Game setup - I9-13900K, 3000 MHz 24 Core 32 Logical Processors, NVIDIA RTX 4090, 42” ASUS 4K OLED monitor, TM HOTAS Warthog, TM TPR Rudder pedals, Bigscreen Beyond VR.

It's one of only two maps that I don't have, perhaps if ED would have included at least one Pakistani airbase and one ex-soviet union airbase, I would have purchased it ... but as it is now it really does not seem worth it for my kind of missions. 35 minutes ago, Nialfb said: I have some strange things happen on the Afghanistan map!

Glad you managed to solve the problem. I know what you mean about the Afghanistan map. It seems fairly pointless. I only created a mission using the map just out of curiosity really, but all of the desert maps look pretty much the same. I suppose ED could have included Mujahideen fighters but they spent most of their time in the mountains. I don't know what effect it had when the UK and US supported the Mujahideen. I'm not sure we gave them any heavy equipment. Knowing the British, we probably held up a candle for them 1 Game setup - I9-13900K, 3000 MHz 24 Core 32 Logical Processors, NVIDIA RTX 4090, 42” ASUS 4K OLED monitor, TM HOTAS Warthog, TM TPR Rudder pedals, Bigscreen Beyond VR.

EricJ Posted July 12 Posted July 12 Yeah we gave them some Stingers and I think the British Blowpipe, but they liked the Stingers if my mind serves me right.
