Sooo hard to make historical scenario

Hello, privet!

First of all, i LOVE DCS World and i have purchased almost every module available.

Now my gripes:

I like to relive history, and the Cold War era in particular. So i am trying o make scenarios from the 1960's up til the end of the cold war. BUT it is so diffucult to use USSR as a faction because most of the modules do not support it, whenever i try to use USSR there is with a few exceptions no skins available, i would be fine with "plausible" skins but the problem is most of them have the "VVS Russia" written on them and or the Russian Flag on the tail.

 

When so much emphasis goes into the accurate modelling of these fantastic modules and i see lots of nations represented how come USSR is almost always left out of the equation? Should be a simple enough thing to add "SUN" as an option to a skin as a few of the modules have skins that would not be completely out off the ballpark to make a believeable scenario.

 

One example is the Mi-8, great skins but NO option to fly it as USSR.

 

Gets of soapbox and wishes you all a magic weekend!

Yes, i know about dowloadable skins in user files but my scenarios are made for MP and it is such a pain to get everyone to download and install a bunch of files everytime we want to fly.

The lack of units available for the USSR in DCS is indeed pretty frustrating and has stopped me from working on several cold war missions, becaus it became too frustrating to always use Russia instead of the USSR, as it just destroys the historical immersion. :(

DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

Not everytime you want to fly, just the first time. Give your friends a "ussr" pack of liveries to download and place on their Saved games/dcs/liveries/ folder, and they are set for any future cold war mission you might edit :)
