Kayos Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Has anyone made a Super Carrier Template in the mission editor yet that they would like to share? I just spent 30 minutes creating one and then as I placed a F-14 and the game crashed :( [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psychotoddler Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 there's a template included in the F18 single player missions, if you want to take a look at it. Can you just copy it out of one mission and past it into another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honez Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I must be missing something, I tired this morning to create one and when I went to place the aircraft in what looked to be neutral positions the kept snapping to the center of the deck even though I assigned them to the carrier. Am I missing something? Also I can't find the checkbox for "Off Set Position. What am I missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claw Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Can you just copy it out of one mission and past it into another? I don't think that is possible. But that is my problem. If I have an existing mission and I want to place the SC with all personnel, equipment and statics in it. How do I go about it? Or do I need to place every time every crew member on deck?

HILOK Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Can you just copy it out of one mission and past it into another? hmm, don't know, sorry. should be possible to select multiple units though, and copy/cut paste into another place within one mission. but you can try, maybe it works, when you open another mission. this is how multi-select (should) work https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=160826 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I missing something? Also I can't find the checkbox for "Off Set Position. What am I missing? Copypasting static units that are linked to a parent (e.g. the CVN) is broken atm, it snaps them to the center. Either drag them from there (semi-good) or copypaste a lot of unlinked statics, move them to their places and link them when you are happy with their position, they are still moveable afterwards, too. i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

kunterbunt Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Can you just copy it out of one mission and past it into another? I think that is the purpose of a template. You create it after selecting all items that should belong to it and then save it. Next time you open the editor, you can place the template anywhere on the map. The problem is that this supercarrier has a lot of units o it that all need to be selected so that they can be saved as a template. It is a lot of work and it would be nice if we could share these templates between us.

gdotts Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Repeat request... I can appreciate the amount of work it takes to populate and make all the radar and radio connections to get a Supercarrier up and running. I have started into doing one, it is not easy! Then getting you plane to hook into the carrier and communicate while going 400mph....WOW. Repeating my request... where are the DCS installed Supercarrier missions kept? I can use them as my template and not ask someone for their templates. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel_Thunder Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Here's a mission I created that works quite well on my machine, using USS Lincoln on the Caucasus map. The ship has some static objects for eye candy; couple of parked Hornets back aft, a parked SH-60 near the island, the crane aft of the island, a nearby tug, two LSO's at their station, and the fire cart up forward by cat 1. The deck is empty otherwise so you can put whatever aircraft you fly onboard. For active objects, there is a rescue SH-60 flying parallel with Lincoln just off the starboard side at 250 feet. There's a Perry class trailing at four miles. A Ticonderoga 1.5 miles off the starboard beam, and an Arleigh Burke at 1 mile from the port beam. There's another Arleigh Burke 7 miles ahead of the carrier. The groups course is 305 @ 25 kts. Lincoln's TACAN is 72X and reports as ABE in your HUD. ICLS channel 1. Comms are on 127.5 AM. Hope you guys find this useful :) EDIT: This is not a template, just a mission I created. I am in the process of creating SC templates and will upload them as soon as I finish them.SC template.miz Edited May 23, 2020 by Diesel_Thunder PC: MSI X670E, Ryzen 9 7900X, 64GB DDR5 RAM, RTX 3090 Ti, TM Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pro Flight pedals, Opentrack Link to my Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/DieselThunderAviation Commander, 62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron Join the 62nd VFS today!

Diesel_Thunder Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Diesel_Thunder….THANKS!!!!!!!! You're welcome :) I'll be ordering a new SSD come payday (current SSD nearly full), at which point I'll be able to download the NTTR and Persian Gulf maps. I'll make a template for PG when I do. And the Marianas map whenever it comes out. Bet I could make a template for NTTR as well, but I doubt that the carrier could go far at 25 kts on Lake Mead! :megalol: PC: MSI X670E, Ryzen 9 7900X, 64GB DDR5 RAM, RTX 3090 Ti, TM Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pro Flight pedals, Opentrack Link to my Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/DieselThunderAviation Commander, 62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron Join the 62nd VFS today!

Hope you guys find this useful :) Diesel_thunder, this looks like a Mission file, not a Template. I thought you where talking about creating a template. That is the icon in the editor that looks like a stamp. The benefit is, that you can insert it in any existing mission, independent of the map. Anybody who wants to use your „template“ has to load you mission and can no longer change the map. Is that correct?

I did create a mission, instead of a template.

kunterbunt Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 The problem with a template is, that you need to select every unit that you want to save. On the carrier there are sometimes units on top of each other , which makes it impossible to select all.
