  1. Thats what I will do then. Thanks :thumbup:
  2. Hello all. I'm working on my weapons mod. I would like to add a couple weapons to the MiG-21 but the "MiG-21Bis.lua" file is not in the same location as the other aircraft... Location for default aircraft lua's: DCS World\Scripts\Database\planes\A-10C.lua (used A-10C as example) **here I am able to pick which weapons are available when selecting loadouts in the editor. Where is this file for the MiG-21? The F-86 and MiG-15 have this file in their folder located in "CoreMods" but I can NOT seem to find the MiG-21 file anywhere. I found a file called "MiG-21bis.lua" in "CoreMods\aircraft\MiG-21BIS\UnitPayloads", but that isn't what I need. DOES ANYONE KNOW? PLEEEEEASE HELP ME :helpsmilie:
  3. I agree. They have released 2 more aircraft and the Mi8 is STILL in beta... disappointing. Im not 100% sure but I think the Huey isnt finished either. If thats the case, that means we have 4 aircraft from the same 3rd party developer and none have been finished. Im not buying anything else from Belsimtek until I see something finished. MOST of my virtual unit feels the same way and we have membership ranging in the hundreds. Many of us just want to see something finished. We paid our hard-earned money and the projects were never completed. Had I known the Mi8 would be in beta this long when I bought it about a year ago, I would have never purchased it.
  4. WOW!!! Thats a nice... um, helicopter... yeah :shocking:
  5. That's what we need for the DCS Mi-8/17. I have flown the Russian campaign more than once, but I am more interested in the modules use for other countries. US contractor missions on the modern battlefield, as well as other countries are my virtual unit's primary use of this aircraft, and all I was saying was we wanted the full realistic capability of the module. I'm glad to see other 8/17 pilots wanting the same level of realism. Gives me a little hope that maybe Belsimtek wont leave us hanging.
  6. I cant wait for this! Going to be fun, that's for sure...
  7. The Afghan Contractor/CIA application is the exact reason I hope we get this...
  8. Also you can hear the M240 rockin in the background. Not sure if its mounted in the back with the doors off or if its mounted in the right side emergency exit. Ive seen it mounted in either place...
  9. This is very true. People, in general, want to know whats going on when they have paid for something, ESPECIALLY FLIGHTSIMMERS :megalol: I know I fit into that comment lol, just frustrated because it seems like they could produce better, more complete, products one by one rather than do so many at once. I could be wrong but who knows. After 2 years, anything could happen...
  10. Checked out your link... BEAUTIFUL STANG!!! You do great work. I agree with you actually. I feel better about my skins because I made the template. Its funny, I don't feel that way about some of the others Ive done with ED templates. Not rushing you at all. Just going off of what I was told and then had no follow up info. Things happen, so no biggie. Thanks for your speedy reply btw.
  11. I don't want to know "if" they are adding door gunners, I want to know "when" lol. That's the only way to make it realistic is to give us the option as promised a LONG time ago. I wont even get into the removal option for the rear doors. Honestly, I think we should be able to remove them and add a .50cal there as well, either Russian 12.7 or American M2/M3. I have no problem with the way they did the Huey door gunners. It would be neat to have other players as door gunners, but they will still have to do something similar to the Huey door gunners for single player missions. I don't understand why they wont do that until shared cockpit is available. At least the Huey has gunners that can return fire. It sucks that there are those of us that bought the Mi-8 and love it and we have yet to see it finished after 2 YEARS. I'm tired of using it for "trash haulin." I want to do air assaults and other missions where I can at least be able to have the crew return fire. I feel like these issues and possibly even the entire project, have fallen through the cracks. Belsimtek wont even comment about it. Wonder whats up...? I have High hopes for them and the Mi-8 module. A comment on the matter containing info about this would be nice...
  12. I agree. Russian stuff first, but then give us the Minigun from the Huey as well. Opens up some wonderful and exciting mission making opportunities. Not to mention add to realism.
  13. I just "colorize" the base layer and use transparency when painting. OR, you can make a layer to paint on and adjust the transparency of the layer. I use both methods depending on the look I am going for. There is no "official" template pack. I just made this from the plain default skin. I have recently been working on the panel lines layer. Bare with me. I honestly thought LN would have given us a template by now. I hope they arent like everyone else. What I mean is, I hope the dont leave this plane in beta for 2 years like the Mi8 or something. They told me in an email that they would be releasing a texture pack and template pack right after 1.2.12 update. HAHA! I think they may have told a lie. I thought they were great, and they could still be, but I'm beginning to see them do more and more like the other developers, releasing something incomplete and promising certain things that dont happen because they are too busy with other aircraft that will more than likey end up the same way. I have high hopes for LN but who know these days. The quality of the MiG21 is painfully amazing, but it's still not finished and I feel like known issues are falling through the cracks. I sure hope I'm wrong. The link is back up on my original post if you guys want this template to use until theirs is released. I have made all of my skins with it and I find it VERY easy to use. I made it for myself but I like to share because if no one shared, I would have never learned to make skins in the first place. Best Regards Everyone!!! :thumbup: Nuck (FlyNate) MY MiG-21bis SKINS: ***all made with this template*** http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/921923/ http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/929090/ http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/957180/ http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/988966/
  14. Maybe one day Belsimtek will finish the Mi-8... Wonder if we could get them to give us the M134 Minigun as a door gun option? Sure would be nice to use the Mi-8 as an American Contractor Mi-17 on the new Nevada map soon. After 2 years in beta, and other projects being released, isn't it at least a little overdue?..... Belsimtek?
  15. I downloaded the file posted on the first page and its a P-51B model... Whats up with that?
  16. I bought Mi-8 WAY back before the F-86 was ever thought of. I say finish one thing and go to the next, or at least make regular improvements and work toward finishing it...
  17. Why not make this a single pad FARP instead? Way better and more likely...
  18. HELL YEAH SIX... THIS IS A MUST HAVE FOR REALISM. THE '8' WOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM LIFTING HUEYS LIKE THIS. PLEEEEEAASE SOMEONE MAKE THIS :music_whistling:
  19. It would be awesome if they worked like the door guns in the Huey...
  20. I would like to know when the Mi8 will be finished. It has spent WAY too much time in beta, and many of us would like to see it finished. Please give us the defensive weapons and rear door removal option. I like to tell myself they are working hard on it, but I kee seeing efforts go into other projects while this one remains unfinished. Not to mention the Cobra which was promised almost a year ago, but I keep seeing other projects come out and the Mi8 has yet to be finished. Love the sling load and flare fix, but please give us the defensive weapons at least... Tired of getting shot full of holes and can NOT return fire on LZs. Thanks
