  2. Oban

    That's a fair point, I didn't actually set it up for either OVGME or regular, but yeah Rudel is on the button with this.

    That's a good idea sir, thank you. The collision model with this release was the older that that sneaked back in under the radar(s) It will be fixed for the next updates I'm ex Brit-Mil too, and was on HMS Rothesay for a long weekend on exchange

    The mod is active.. !! Okay, I spotted an issue with one of the models after I uploaded the files, and will need to wait until Hawkeye60 sends me the updated model, as I don't know my way around 3dsmax enough to fix it, and export it.. It will be fixed and updated as quickly as possible, I wasn't expecting the Mod to go live so soon !! hahahahaha

    Update.. All the hard works is done, a release is planned for tomorrow 01 JAN 2022 ( I can't upload pics, I'm restricted to a size of 243KB!! ) Due to the massive size of the Liveries pack, the release will be in 2 parts Part 1: The Base Leander class that will include 4 models, the Guns, the Exocet, Exocet Towed Array, and the base class towed array ( this class never existed) A blank canvas for your own designs. Part 2 : The Liveries pack that will contain all the Leander class frigates used by the Royal Navy only ( 50+ Liveries) You WILL need 7Zip to open, otherwise I cannot compress enough to upload to DCS Both the base files and the Liveries packs have now been uploaded to my DCS files, awaiting approval. I will upload to drop-box until the files are active on DCS world. https://imgur.com/gallery/eDBpazq

    I've tried to update to the latest open beta, and it stops at this part 06627.276 ERROR: Can't delete F:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin/AIFM.dll: (5) Access is denied. Never seen this before in an update. Disregard, DCS didn't shut down properly the last time I ran it, and was running silently in the background...all good now

    Did that, and it still crashed, and then discovered an errant mod folder in my "tech" folder in the saved games, works a charm again, thank you for your help and assistance !

    I've just started having issues where I cannot quit a mission without the game freezing and I have to then use task manager to quit. dcs.log

    I'm having issues after the past couple of updates with the F18C, when I tune the radio in, both UHF and VGH to 127.500 and call "Stenis" .."Inbound" I no longer hear the response, even trying to "call the ball" on finals it doesn't seem to transmit, but the LSO will talk me down, and grade me? Weird.

    Can we keep this page for Admiral's releases, other mods should have their own pages for talking points, it's derailing Admirals work , progress and release page

    Yeah, I believe it's the sea sparrow, I did another scenario of 6 A4E's against 2 Leanders, the A4's never got their bombs off their racks.. I've opted to go for the all black hull due to the translucence of the water, they look not too bad, I'm hoping to have this released very soon, when I say soon, I'm looking at the next 2 weeks (sounds familiar lol) What you will need is 7Zip to extract the Liveries, as there's almost 50 RN different liveries for the RN ships (26 base Leanders, 13 exocet Leanders, 4 Exocet Towed arrays, and 4 Leander class towed arrays ) , winzip just wasn't compressing enough.
  15. Oban
    The beauty of testing stuff like this out is that you can get to throw up "challenges" 13 Exocet carrying Leanders against 2 Chinese destroyers, who were able to hold their own until their CWIS ran out of ammo, then the Exocets (Harpoons) smashed them.. The AI for the Ships are not that smart either, they wont break off formation, even if one's crippled.. From a personal perspective, the Mods achieved so much more than what I originally hoped for.. I was Happy enough to get 2 working Leander models looking mega in game... I can't thank Hawkeye60, CrazyEddie, and Admiral189 enough for their contributions.
  16. Oban
    The model parts unfortunately are as is, it would mean modelling the seacat system from scratch, I'm taking hawkeye60 away from his other projects as is, using what's modelled is the compromise, Hawkeye created the extended flight deck for the towed array exocets already..believe me, the mod has already grown arms and legs beyond what was intended lol The Bacchante you're looking at in the picture is a tester only, if you look closer, she has the ASW mortar on the focsle as well, the default texture for the Leanders was for HMS Bacchante I will post pictures of the full line up tomorrow mate, it's 0110 here in Iraq, so time to get my fat napper down!!

    In the initial release, which will be massive due to all the liveries (unless you all want to have the classes split up?) The focus will be for Royal Navy vessels for initial release, the rest (maybe) will be done in 2022 26 RN 4.5" gun liveries for all initial Leander class's 13 RN Exocet liveries 4 RN standard class towed arrays, even though they didn't actually exist, the towed array is eye candy only anyway. 4 RN Exocet towed arrays the 5th (HMS Arethusa, was in Ikara conversion, which sadly we don't have a model for) All of them have the new style working wakes I'm of mixed opinion about the Brick Red anti-fouling hulls, but the all black also looks pretty mega as well, Hawkeye60 will look at converting all 4 variants and I will make a decision once I check them out.

    That's the Ikara conversion on HMS Leander, but yes, the DCS sea texture doesn't help, it's too transparent. I don't believe it would take that much to lower the whole ship to Midway on the Black waterline, Hawkeye is the man for that, as he's doing the modelling and animations part, I'm just doing the textures.
  20. Oban
    I could ask Hawkeye60 to lower them a little
  21. Oban
    Damage/Collision model works well..
  22. Oban
    Time for an update, as we're nearing a release.. Not going to lie, the mod is going to be a large initial release, as it features Hi res liveries for all 26 basic Royal Navy Leanders, 12 configured for exocets, and 4 for the towed array versions. She can be sunk, takes a fair bit depending on what's fired at her, but YJ84's are lethal !
  23. Oban
    It's literally what he wrote, as I just did the same, I edited mine throught notepad ++ leander_class.lods.ship_wake
  24. Oban
    Joey45, do you just add the wake shape edm into your ship folder to get it working? or is there a requirement within the lua to point to it? Interested in applying this to the Leander class frigates I'm working on.. Disregard, sussed it out, you need the .wake.edm file to be named the same as the ship model class.
  25. Oban
    100% agree, the bow wake push by the Kilo's are pretty awesome, would love yo see that effect too.
