Meanwhile test the Pr.205. I upload a new Pr.123 test video. Enjoy ;)

Great work mate !!!

Awesome work.

Today update report:

1º- I intent build the Animations to a other of my ship (a Pr.204 antisubmarine corvete), not problem with them on 3DS Max, but I exported them to the Modelviewer / DCS: World, I discover the animation don´t work properly. I return to 3DS Max and recheck the pivot placement. I start to reset pivots and movement them to correct alignment. With frustration, I discover with I move some of them, all ship mesh change, and I not sure how fix them (I don't like remake that ship from scratch). Surely, I missing something.

2º- I intent place weapons torpedoes on the Pr.183 torpedo ship, with proper torpedo (configure how a missile by ED engine limitation), but some strangle happens, meanwhile the lua definition has correct, with proper 3D models and weapons definitions, the ship show the same P-15 termir missile as my Pr.205 ship on the torpedo tubes. If I suppressed the Pr.205 and the P-15 of DCS: W, when I load a mission with my Pr.183, DCS: W crash. Bad Pr.183 LUA definition or PR.205 conflict?

3º- I continue have the issue of the Igla missile apears on the missile launcher, but now, that dont turn and not firing missiles. DCS: W version conflict or I touch wrong?

Attach MAX files (2014) and MOD archives (If someone require 3DS Max previous versions, post them and I upload them).

The polycount on those tank rounds seems excessively high for something that's only seen for a slit second.

vicx · July 14, 2015

High polycount models are an essential part of producing modern 3D game assets. You use the high poly models to help produce normal maps and textures for lower poly models.

In addition to this I think that having really detailed LOD0 models available is a really nice idea for future proofing. In future there might be some interesting new ways use a sim like DCS. You could use DCS for "Very High Quality" machinima. This isn't a totally new idea. Valve Software have a version of their Source Engine called SFM (Source Film Maker) that uses high poly versions of models lifted from their game titles to produce movies.

I also think VR also offers up an interesting possibility for game engines and game assets. Room scale VR is definitely going to be an application where models have to have very high fidelity. Maybe there will be a roomscale experience in DCS where ammunition is seen close at hand, it would be nice to have high quality LOD0 models for this type of thing.

Sorry to derail thread - but I do love high poly models.

Today I have test a new 3D model, the SR-375 antisubmarine rocket launcher. That launcher on 2/4/6 tubes was present on Sweden and NATO units during cold war.

Hi Folks.

I can confirm some wrong have with the P-15 Pr.205 missile definition. The P-15 model "hijack" all missile definitions after of them (If I delete the Pr.205 P-15, DCS: W crash with load other user missile).

Some example:

I defined a new MM-40 Exocet missile to my LaFayette FFG frigate. The P-15 hijack all user definde 3D model inserted into them.

LaFayette missile testing (you can see the P-15 in the missile tubes).

I only have time to read these definitions and give limited advice. I don't have time to test things in DCS until later.

I am not an expert just a guy who plays but I question the values I have highlighted.

P_15

attribute = {4, 4, 11, 500, "Anti-Ship missiles"},

torp5339

attribute = {4, 4, 11, 501, "Anti-Ship missiles"},

MM_40

attribute = {4,4, 11, 502, "Anti-Ship missiles"},

I am pretty sure in this line you are meant to reference an existing object. You can't just make up new numbers here. Try using a value referenced by similar weapon already in DCS.

Also after making such a definition you will need to declare_loadout("name") but I can't give too much advice on declare_loadout() because it is not an area I have played with.

===

Some of what you are trying to do is dependent on definitions in other places. For missiles there are definitions here.

"C:\Program Files\DCSWorld\Config\Weapons\missiles_table.lua"

"C:\Program Files\DCSWorld\Config\Weapons\missiles_data.lua"

but don't assume that you can just add a new entry and everything will just work. I don't play with this stuff yet because it takes a lot of time to get familiar with these undocumented things.

Silver_Dragon · July 17, 2015

Yes, you are correct. SVKSniper tell me the same method, but, the problem has how add a correlative new weapon without enter on conflict with a previous weapon definition.

vicx · July 17, 2015

Ah I see. Do you have the MM-40 EDM ready that you can share via PM. Also will need a P-15M.EDM and a Torp5339.EDM.

I think this can be done.

Silver_Dragon · July 17, 2015

Ok, go to a MP

vicx · July 18, 2015

Well I have tried a few approaches to using the declare_weapon() function inside the TECH environment and I haven't found a way that doesn't lead to errors that crash DCS.

I think getting this working is outside my skill level and might require a LUA debugging tool.

I will try next an approach that uses the AIRCRAFT mode environment instead but I think it might be the same story.

Silver_Dragon · July 18, 2015

a sad news, vicx.

I think the engine limitation can get very hard problems to resolve that issues. :(

jay43 · July 21, 2015

So i thought i would have a go at some of this modeling lark and here's my first attempt, well my first decent attempt there have been many failures getting here.

Don't you mean stern? Unless the Soviets were in a habit of making their bows square-shaped.

Silver_Dragon · July 29, 2015

Stern... fixed
