Support for DCS 2.8.5.40170, including laser hellfire, pylon 5 for the
apache, and a more tolerant livery scanner (not all liveries will be
discovered, but Liberation at least won't crash).
Fixes https://github.com/dcs-liberation/dcs_liberation/issues/2880.
Includes the rewritten livery scanning code. It might need some more
tweaks to be fast enough, but it at least now doesn't spam the log for
machines that don't have DCS (or Liberation) installed, and it's not
slow until something tries to use it, so until we add the UI we won't
have to pay for it during startup.
pydcs_extensions.__init__ wasn't actually doing anything because without
an __init__.py each of these "packages" was empty. This has been working
by accident because of ai_flight_planner_db.py.
Updated the F4.py pydcs extension to match the updated F-4B/C mod and
reworked the standard payloads to add "clean" to new F-4B pylons 11 and
12.
This includes a workaround to allow Liberation to use the new VSN F-4B
weapons with combined 2x Aim-9js on pylons 3 and 9 underslung with bombs
on ters on new pylons 11 and 12. In mission editor the combined weapons
are selected in pylons 3 and 9 and their under-slung counterparts are
forced onto 11 and 12 using "required" arguments in the mod's lua. All
other pylon 3 and 9 weapons use "required clean" arguments. Liberation
doesn't have a way to force these linkages onto pylons 11 and 12 and
without them, even without clean, no weapons will load on 3 and 9 or 11
and 12.
The workaround for normal weapons on the F-4B is to set the standard
load-outs to "clean" on pylons 11 and 12. This allows all normal weapons
to work on pylons 3 and 9 so long as pylons 11 and 12 are left as Clean.
It also allows Clean into the Liberation dropdown so it can be selected
later if necessary.
The workaround for the 4 new weapons that combines pylons 3 with 11 and
9 with 12 is that the user has to use the matching pair on each set of
pylons. For example - if F4B_LAU105_AIM9J_2_BRU42A_MK82_3 is selected
for pylon 3, BRU 42A MK823 LAU105 AIM9J2 must be selected for pylon 11.
Failure to do this correctly doesn't crash liberation or DCS, the result
will just be either no weapons at all on either pylon or the underslung
weapons on 11 and 12 floating without a pylon attaching it to the plane.
When updating f4.py in the future, note that running the pydcs database
export doesn't pull any data for Pylons 11 and 12. Those matching
weapons / classes have to be manually defined in those pylons for the
F-4B. This is noted in f4.py.
Includes the new A-10C radios. Will follow up to make Liberation
actually use them.
This manually removes some weapons from mod files that were removed from
DCS. Those mods may need re-exporting, and may also need updating by
their authors, but for now this should keep them functioning.
Updated the UH-60L loadout for version 1.3.1 and added the UH-60 to the following factions as per #2176
Israel-USN 2005 (Allied Sword)
Israel 2000
Israel 2012'ish
Resolves#1964 but adding CTLD will require the use of Liberation plugins and thus are not included in this pull request.
- Implemented support for the UH-60L mod by =X51= Kinkkujuustovoileipa, Cubeboy, Jonas, JinxxDCS, Dorian, =X51= Parzival & =X51= Lawson.
- Because the standard DCS tankers will not fly below 160ish knots, the UH-60L mod team have included a modified version of the KC-130 tanker designed for refueling at speeds of 120-130kts.
Mod selection is now done via checkbox in the new game wizard.
The MB-339 is being turned into a paid module, and the free mod no longer works, so it's been removed.
Adds a simple injector that iterates over attrs of an input class and
injects things that look like custom weapons into pydcs's weapons
classes.
Also updated all current mod aircraft configs to perform the injection.
