QuiGon Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Pick one with a description that you like and enjoy it. Or is there anything specific you're wondering about? Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

draconus Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Download it. If it's zip or rar - unpack first. Save it to saved games/dcs/missions and run from DCS missions menu - if you have the right module, map and whatever else is needed - some require additional mods installed.

cthulhu68 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 If you are going to open downloaded missions from Start Screen/ Missions they'll be found under "My Missions" and you may need to adjust path to them or just go to Mission Editir/ Open File and create path.

Ryanwtod Posted August 13, 2020 Author Share Posted August 13, 2020 thanks guys. where do you put skins etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cthulhu68 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 For skins you will need to create a "Liveries" folder in your Saved Games / DCS folder and then create folder for each module there. In your main install (program files/Ed/DCS/bazaar/liveries you'll see how eaxh module is named so copy that foldet name for your saved games/liveries folder.

Ryanwtod Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 hopefully one last question, do campaigns just go in the campaign folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudel_chw Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 hopefully one last question, do campaigns just go in the campaign folder? They go into saved games/dcs/missions/campaigns/en/ (Each campaign within its own subfolder) Inside DCS they show up on Campaigns -> My Campaigns For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For newer aircraft like the F-14 and F/A-18, you'll need to use the name of the airframe under the liveries folder in DCS/CoreMods instead of bazar. For example, if your DCS path to the F/A-18 is DCS World OpenBeta\CoreMods\aircraft\FA-18C\Liveries\FA-18C_hornet then you will need to add the folder \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries\FA-18C_hornet. 1 -Home Fries My DCS Files and Skins My DCS TARGET Profile for Cougar or Warthog and MFDs F-14B LANTIRN Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
