Duster Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) Hi, I saw that some objects do not appear in game, for example some street lamps that are present in the template "VP-Lighting tower" "VP-Gotb 100m" etc... . What can it depend on?

Thank you Yes, unfortunately on latest DCS the lighting effects of the VPC Mod caused crashes so I had to disable the lighting. Didn't remove the light towers from the Templates because I still hope that @voc (the Mod's author) will be able to fix it in the future 1 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...
Bog9y Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Is anybody else having issues with the static template for Kobuleti? I can load the template in mission editor but if I click on an object or load the mission to fly it I get an error and DCS crashes.

This is the error message : Hello, Unfortunately, DCS has renamed the files fake_omni_lights.fx and fake_spot_lights.fx, which on DCS 2.7 are named fake_omni_lights2.fx and fake_spot_lights2.fx The ideal solution would be to re-create the 50 or so objects of the Mod that include lighting to make use of the renamed files, but that is a lot of work and the Mod's author is not currently able to dedicate so much time to this; so an alternative solution is to copy those two files and give them the old names .. the end result looks like this: Fortunately, this fix does not break the integrity check in any way, but if you ever do a repair of DCS, the repair tool will delete them, so this fix would have to be re-done .. I will edit a small Mod in OvGME format and provide a link, so that it is easier to apply. My thanks to the user that found this workaround @Shlee A nice side-effect of this fix is that it restores the lighting abilities of some objects, that was lost when DCS updated to 2.5.6 I will create a link with an updated version of the Mod, just give me a few hours to test it first. The Static templates themselves do not need any update at all, since the VPC Mod is completely separated.

Bog9y Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Wow! Thanks for such a quick and detailed reply! I was sad to think I was not able to use the static template. I will try the fix, don't care about the integrity check. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably have the version of the VPC Mod where I disabled its lightning to make it not crash on DCS 2.5.6 ... wait a few hours and I will upload a working version of the Mod. 1 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...

Bog9y Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 The fix to get the lights to work was to put the lights in as a GROUND UNIT - FORTIFICATION, not as a static object. I read that fix on your other thread. Many thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My static templates are built that way, the units that have lighting are placed as fortifications rather than statics. 2 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...
mrmat01 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) Gday This looks like great work but unfortunately If I try to start a mission with the templets loaded DCS crashes while loading & wants to send crash reports. I would say the mod used (VPC-Airfield Equipment 0.9.4 beta) is broken Edited May 29, 2022 by mrmat01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, not sure what you mean by "old version" ... my Templates have only one version, as I have not updated them since their creation.
