RAFAIR UK MODs & Skins - Update

The first issue, v1.0.0, was released 10th February 2021 and components were either REQUIRED (mandatory to access servers) or OPTIONAL (for local squadron use)

The REQUIRED combined MOD & Skin Pack was 2.32Gb size and contained
MODS
  • 476RangeTargets
  • Hermes R12
  • nBFG Harrier Pack (selected)
  • ZeDim Static Pack v0.4
SKINS
  • 36x Squadron generic skin packs
Optional skin pack (0.3GB) containing 3(F) and 11(F) 15 personalised skin packs
Optional MOD pack for Helo Training (0.4 Gb)

These have been superseded by v2.0.0 (3Gb) Updates and deletion have been made and additionally merges the Optional Skins with the updated REQUIRED SKINS as well as adding a memorial static object.
In brief:
  • The 4 main MOD packages remain unchanged
  • Mutley Static Object added
  • Additional Generic Skins from 41(F) added
  • RAFAIR UK matched single skin for Mi-24P, Mi-8 & Ka-50 added
  • Optional Skins (3F & 11F) merged with the REQUIRED SKINS
  • Several unused Mi-8 skins deleted
******* REQUIRED combined MOD & Skin Pack v2.0.0 . *******

v2.0.0 can be downloaded from this link....(3Gb) https://mega.nz/file/iZR0Qb5D#7gsZCAaYw ... MBHCSOffkM

The file is issued in a OVGME compliant zip container for drag and drop ease. Manual installation can be used, simply unzip the contents directly into your SAVED GAMES root overwriting when necessary.
The Optional MOD pack for Helo Training (0.4 GB) is unchanged

Hand Holding: OvGME, other software, guides and videos can be found here viewtopic.php?f=128&t=4971

******* v1.0.0. to v2.0.0 upgrade. *******

This pack updates an already installed RAF Air UK REQUIRED MODs & Skins V1 pack to V2.0.0 (1.5GB) 'RAF Air UK REQUIRED MODs & Skins V1 to V2.zip' can be downloaded from this link... (1.5Gb)https://mega.nz/file/2JhEXCxY#ApF9kimjS ... LVyPY9w8z4
All 11(F) skins have been amended, many from 3(F) and a clatter from 41(F) so this upgrade file is a bit larger than anticipated but no matter, all skins from 3,11 & 41 are in it to save me chcecking timestamps etc…
The file is issued in a OVGME compliant zip container for drag and drop ease or manual installation if desired.

******* GET OF JAIL CARD: *******

All default missions will soon have the Mutley static object somewhere, if not installed you will not be able to join the server. Here is the MOD on its own (7K) as a stopgap to get you on....https://mega.nz/file/aFpgnSTS#sa5jbqBEw ... vdIZvgXONo

******* Optional MOD pack for Helo Training *******

This remains unchanged and can be downloaded from this link..(.4Gb)https://mega.nz/file/SNximYzT#2WIlohwNM ... VIZ3pRLuFo

******* UPDATES *******

Overall updates will be annually with new or personalised skins bi-monthly (these will be of minimal size...and only when presented by the squadrons)

2 additional free aircraft MODS are installed on Server 4 and missions involving these aircraft may be made and run occasionally on this server at local squadron level. These are the community carrier capable A4E and the T-45 which is also has a operational dual seat capability. You can download the current versions here:

Chris, I find that if I install the optional Helicopter mods, DCS on start up, isolates the "heliport" mod and won't register me on line. Anyone else having the same problems?

It all works together fine so suggest you check inside the paths in case a MOD is 'double bagged'.

If no luck and if you have the time delete old stuff and download the 'RAF Air UK REQUIRED MODs & Skinsv2.zip' and 'RAF Air UK OPTIONAL MOD (Rotary).zip' and install fresh preferably with OvGME.

Shout if that fails and I'll have a look on Discord desktop share or Teamviewer if you have that..
