Hi guys, just been playing around with DCS World, these are some pretty big screenies, so they might take a while to load.

 

Enjoy!

***DOWNLOAD IS TEMPORARILY DOWN UNTIL A MODERATOR PERMITS ME TO CONTINUE

 

It flies with the Su-25 pit and it quite complicated, ill do my best to explain.

Use these instructions or download the attached file.

 

Be warned the instructions are huge. It is easier to download the .zip file and put the MiG-29A folder in your DCS World\Mods\aircrafts folder. After that copy all the MiG-29 missions from LockOn FC2 (not MiG-29S missions) into DCS world\mods\airctafts\MiG-29A\Missions\Single.

 

1. I went into my dcs world\mods\aircrafts folder and looked at how it was structured.

 

2. Next I went into my LockOn FC2\config\input\aircrafts folder and copied the mig-29 folder into the mods\aircraft in World.

 

3. Rename mig-29 to MiG-29A. Go to: DCS world\mods\aircrafts\MiG-29A\input\mig-29. Then I created a file called entry.lua in that folder folder and wrote this:

return _('MiG-29A')

 

Save that file. The purpouse of this is to make its name show up in the options menu like in screenshot 2 in the first post.

 

4. in the MiG-29A folder, copy the entry.lua from the Su-25T folder into the MiG-29A folder and edit it so everything is like in the screenshot I will post at the end. This is also where you add the aircraft description like in Screenshot #1.

 

5. Make a folder in MiG-29A and call it Theme

 

6. This is for having an icon and splashscreen like in screenshot 1 in the first post.

But Ill explain that later on. for now copy the contents of Su-25T\Theme into MiG-29A\Theme.

 

7. Go to LockOn FC2\missions and copy all the missions that say MiG-29 ......

NOT THE ONES THAT SAY MiG-29S....

Paste these missions into DCS World\mods\aircrafts\MiG-29A\Missions\single

 

This is so you can fly it with out using MP.

 

8. To fly it, set up the controls and use one of these missions.

 

 

Okay let me know If I missed something out! Phew!

 

entry.lua for MiG-29A is basicly the same as Su-25T just with MiG-29A everywhere and a different description.

Wow! A Su25 "basic" model whould be fantastic.

 

Im sure there are more guys wondering about this!

 

I could do the Su-25 basic but it would use the Toad's pit until I or someone else can make all the lock on cockpits in DCS World.

I started with the MiG because my wish is to have a flyable fighter in MP before FC3 comes out.

 

Check my second post again, I have added a file to download making it way easier.

Yes it uses the Su-25T pit. I hope to change this. If you can help, PM me please.

 

 

I must wait until I get a green light from a moderator to continue with this MOD, so unfortunately I will have to take down the download file temporarily.

It's a MiG-29A mod but there's MiG-29S in first screenshot, please change that...

 

I am planning to change the whole mod to the MiG-29S....

Moreover it's an old FC2 shot with ugly sawtooth shadows.

 

Come on guys , you are really just wasting your times.

You need a very-very deep hack for real MiGpit, (radar and weapons) and hard LUA works to bring back FC2 level in DCS-W, not mentioned the FC3? feature in-pit-shadows, so you should better wait till FC3 arrives.

Im pretty sure ED will come up with new MiG and Su models :book: Perhaps with cockpits as well .
