How accurate are those? I have issues with JDAMs (which is why I kinda stopped carrying them) as a whole. I'm guessing two weeks?

Yeah man, get a 2TB (when this laptop dies I'm moving to a 4TB hard drive on the laptop) or higher dude. You can't do much with 250GB, if you can afford it. The amount of mods I have for SF2 alone is 133GB...

It's probably a good idea, to free up some space for you. I mean, I don't think there's any other method that would help you in your situation.

Armored SUV RC7 - The vehicle is able to drive offroad now, thanks to Apollo on the Arma Discord

EricJ Helicopter Pack RC91 - Fixed config entries for the MH/UH-60/92s regarding the minigun compartments, some aircraft should now be able to switch minigun positions while in flight. - Reduced Armor of the Cruise Missile Container, improved the SAM Container armor, and gave armor to the Mortar Container. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LSDehiNWHGsoB8YOq2HTHFYHDjodmDv1/view?usp=sharing

Actually I did forget about it, I'll either have to check my install or download it again, but I think I had it.

I trained for Bosnia and Kosovo (Fort Hood and Germany), but never went. So I could have been there, but the units I was in never went. We almost went to Kosovo, but the SCO said "Nope, we're not going" at 0615 on a Monday morning, so there was that.

You know three out of five of my deployments were in the desert (Kuwait, Iraq, and Egypt), and I've always wanted a conflict to start up in Jamaica. Not that I have something against Jamaicans, but to deploy to a Caribbean country where the weather is nice and all that. Just get away from the desert. I guess this is all I'm gonna get though. But anyway thanks Wrench, downloading now...

EricJ Cherokee Containers RC21 - Reduced Armor of the Cruise Missile Container, SAM Container, and gave armor to the Mortar Container.

Okay so far I've cleaned up some configs, and worked on some armor values for some of the containers. Currently I'm doing a Strike Fighters 2 project, but everything seems good. Although I need to work on the Armored SUV and try and get it to go offroad as it's sluggish in that area, but then again not many are complaining about it right now, so there's that.

Yeah I didn't do anything special, just downloaded it and installed it.

Nice, thanks!

Took a flight with the A-6B and noticed a couple of issues: - In the cockpit view the refuelling probe doesn't go all the way down into the cockpit dashboard. Not a killer issue, but graphically doesn't work. - You may want to talk to Cliff7600 and get him to work on the low speed handling of the bird with full flaps down. With the flaps down it is possible to land the bird (did a video of it and will post in the Video thread), but you're kinda fighting the aircraft to make sure you land. I had the same issue with another mod and he fixed it, just have the NATOPS manual handy and that issue can be fixed.

I think he dropped off the planet. Don't know why as I didn't talk to him other him PMing me asking if he could make skins, and I told him sure of course. Other than that never talked to him, and he hasn't been here yet.

I'm sure with the game engine that causes issues that I'm not aware of, but I guess that sucks up the VRAM pretty well, and a lot of a/c flying will choke some computers. Anyway yeah I feel you though.I mean SidDogg did a good job with the decals, but again they look kinda plasticky and not good in my opinion, with the exception of tactical numbers, which more or less when done right, look good on the skin.

My bad, I got you

I think you should to The Range and perfect your skills before heading into a combat zone first. I mean I don't do much practice anymore because well, I don't fly missions anymore, but overall The Range will get you comfortable with a technique you can apply to bombing small targets and such. It's just easy to carry some bombs, blow up the main target, and then hunt and peck at other targets.

I'm not too much of a fan of the F-16 template, but it is what it is, and otherwise a decent template. I know back in the day Eagle Dynamics made good templates (the Black Shark one was just too much for the bird IMHO) and if I still played DCS, I would probably generate some more skins, but I just don't have the room on my laptop for it, so there's that. Some companies like 3W don't make good mapping so even with a decent template you're still running into issues with it, which for the Tomcat I preferred the TMF birds given that the mapping and templates were good for skinning. Anyway, I limit decals for the USN bird Modex numbers and that's about it. SidDogg did some good work with decals for the Super Bug, but overall I stay away from decals unless I have no real choice.

That's why I like FastCargo's work when making a template, when able with any template, but I feel you when you start out trying to figure it all out when you don't have a template. That's why I always search for one for a project.

I don't know which F-4 (didn't read all the posts), but if you are able to make a separate station for the bird, then it'll show "1 AIM-7 Sparrow", and so on. If it already does that then you just have to select the pylon and pod. If they are grouped together like "4 AIM-7 Sparrow" and so on, then you'll have to make your own loadout. I'm thinking if it's stock, then you'll have to make a custom loadout as Sundowner recommends, then in the Mission Editor go to your aircraft and then select that loadout (make sure you follow the format, it'll take some guesses where the ECM pod goes though) and do whatever else, and go fly.

You select the custom loadout in the MIssion Editor, when you edit the mission. That's the only way to get it setup so you can have an ECM pod, and three Sparrows. Or if the pylon is a separate pylon by itself, simply select the ECM pod. It should allow you to do that in the Loadout screen.

I deleted all of the rest of my Firestreaks and Red Tops because I need quality in my mod folder, and went with these. Thanks ravenclaw!
