uscstaylor Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 (edited) Version 4.2 as of 07/27/2018 LHA MOD plain decks All Ships OK These ships work for players and AI. AI will takeoff in Hover mode as long as the weapons load out and fuel load out is at least 50%. ED should have a fix soon for the AI aircraft hopefully soon. I tested this with the Tarawa and should work fine...Just AI planes need fixing Ver 4.1 1. Cleared the deck of the LHA's, so you can add your own scenery. (If that will work) not sure. 2. Moved aircraft spawn spots back on deck. 3 AI Harriers will park on the front part of the deck... Ver 4.2 Speed fix to bring the ships up to 21 knots.... Note All ships have clear decks and I even had the Tarawa in the same mission with no Problems...All ships have their own named files now...

Morkva_55 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Another thing. Even non official mods only in users folder cant be modified at all. For example taking the LHA mod that adds the Saipan, Essex, etc to the ships available. If you change ANY line in the .lua the ship doesnt show anymore in the editor. So its impossible to make any change at all. Another example with an official .lua. The Tarawa in the original .lua is ONLY for USA. If you try to add another country lke SPN for Spain in the .lua, again the editor is not showing the Tarawa anymore. Any object (ship, plane, vehicle) can be assigned to any country by adding one line in the lua: GT.Countries = {"USA","SPN","ITA",}; add_surface_unit(GT)All of the above applies to mods located in the user profile (saved games).

uscstaylor Posted March 18, 2018 Author Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) Guys Here's a a small update for the Landing of the AI aircraft. Please download and replace these LAU files in the main ships folders, only 1 file for each ship. You can just drag them in or copy and paste. When it asks to overwrite just say yes....Bonus there's a second version of Bella WoodV2 if you re-download the ship from the first post. For you Helo pilots...lol Fixes the AI planes landing back on the LHA's Thanks Edited July 27, 2018 by uscstaylor Old File Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esac_mirmidon Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) Morkva, try yourself. Any change, addition or edit on ED original .lua file makes the Tarawa disappear from the editor.

AG-51_Razor Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Is there a way to tone that light intensity down a bit or is that a function of ED's lighting protocal? It does seem a little bit on the garish side when seen from a distance. I will say though, that it is much better than the black hole we are dealing with at the moment! :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uscstaylor Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 Sirius, I would hope that Razbam would welcome these as a nice edition to the Tawara and work at making them coexist. As it stands you can use the Tawara with AI and our mod but not with live pilots for some odd reason your plane wheels below the deck Tawara.

Hawkeye60 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 These Hovercraft go hand in glove with these ships. We have received permission from upuaut to include them with this mod.

Backy 51 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Hawkeye, They do work, but seem to stop about 2-3 NM from shore. Sure would like them to "hit the beach".

Hawkeye60 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 (edited) They do work, but seem to stop about 2-3 NM from shore. Sure would like them to "hit the beach"More that likely "normal" DCS behavior. Come to think of it, the Swift could almost touch the beach if placed correctly in the ME. I would need to investigate further. If it something in the lua code, we can correct it. I will let you know. On another topic, the night lighting brightness is set within Max and exported with the edm. To change it now may be more work than it is worth. It is something we will keep in mind for the future. Hawkeye Edit, It does appear this is a DCS limitation. Silver Dragon mentions this feature and it's status according to his available information, in his models thread. However........... If you look into the unarmed section of the ME, you may find this! Have fun! Edited March 20, 2018 by Hawkeye60 "Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil.
