I tried your FM, the problem is the same. Adding an ACD and redirect FM changes nothing. The problem remains the same for the LAVI when adding AA weapons.

I had to modify hardpoint sequence in F15C to have the good hardpoints at the good place. So the F15C works. I also tried to move F15I'S models areas slot lods but I didn't succeed.
I think the problem for OF is :
1/ 3d racks are not necessary the same than in FF.
2/ Modifying the rack.dat changes nothing for the 3D visual.

Something I can't understand is that on the same pylon, you have no problem when selecting ground munition (you have a rack) but when selecting air munition, the missile glue on the wing. Keeping or unkeeping rack in f4browse changes also nothing.

New problem discovered, adding the FF F15E with his own Fm, makes him fly without landing gear, why this problem doesn't exist in F15C ?

--- Well some lods and skins permutations and adds for OF only.
Take a look at http://s182.photobucket.com/albums/x9/Fafa_Griffons/
My principal problem in the OF DB is all around the hardpoints.

Time problems :

- I have to finish the F5E IRIAF skin too to put it in, if someone wants to finish it I can give you the skins and the based work.

- I'm looking for someone who could use all the skins I put for this DB to make a RV specific Koreaobj. It is half done with a previous version for 0.512. I could give 2 links : 1 for the already made and 1 for the OF done which could be used.

- I have to tacedit the historical campaigns for RV and OF. OF version is partially done, RV not again. To win time I'm looking forward the historical orders of battle for ODS1991 an Allied Forces. Anyone interested in tacediting the air units for RV version ?

All this job done could be useful for a new release but I fear I won't be ready in time.

And the reason? You just cant go on posting all these kinds of screenshots and updates to hype up the people only to act like 12 year old / Rob OIF style disappearing without any reason.

The only reason are the new year's good resolution. :wink:

After hours of work, I realized the RV and OF DB will be replaced, so why working on an already too much old DB ? The future RV and OF will give a big difference I may suppose, right ? New AC, new weapons etc... made by people who knows all this sim secrets. Unfortunatly news about those developpements are so secret that I don't want to work for nothing.

In that way the latest ODS release gives some extra fix (UI etc...) I had made in my own way and my primary intention was to give you those files with the complete made DB I was working on. I suppose I didn't communicate enough but due to lack of time and my own life I can't be involved in Falcon every day.

The actual RV version only need an updated skinpack for ODS or IRAN. Some skins are already available by default in the ITO2 FF version and Ranger is working on the RV version.
The ITO OF version released by mETALhEAD has an updated DB version with some lods and skins so I wait for a complete fix to add remaining skins on it.
My opinion is that ITO/ODS/IRAN theater can share a common DB and skins ATM.

The more logical conclusion for me is to concentrate my efforts on skins and wait for the future releases. I'll continue to post screenshots about this work.

Ok, keep concentrated on skins. what do you think if we also try to get "real/good" campaigns for it (RV). let's work on it. do you have an OBB??
BTW i'll send you a small update of the IRIAF F-5E..... :!:

I partially already updated the "brothers at arm " historical IRAN/IRAQ war campaign for RV and OF (only squadrons airbases) but didn't try it again in accelerated time. I also have an hypothetical conflict for ODS (SYRIA and IRAN vs Coalition)

Around the skins, I have already converted the IRIAF F4 for :
OF : F4D, F4E
RV: F4D, F4E same lod.

I have also modified some Mig21 skins to fit to the 2 versions, so you see I miss of time but I am still active.
In reality I am very interestested for the F5 I sent you because it is FF/RV one. Then I'll update it.
I began some work on the RV'S
- F5A but I haven't got the PSD.
- MIG21bis but I haven't got the PSD
- MIG29 but I haven't got the PSD

BTW I don't made politic on Falcon, RV has very good things and OF has very good things too. The best should be a mariage but they were divorced before going to the church ! Now if I do something for RV, I do the same thing for OF and the same in the other sense. It is my opinion.

hey fafa, i'll send you the updated skins soon.
BTW use transperancy(80%) on the decals/markings... because the green decals on the 29 are looking pretty "overlayed".
just a tip. :wink:
