New DCS with a fix for an intermittent bug:

*) Runway lights were not always being placed when the daylight and weather conditions indicated they should be placed. A bad CloudType reference has been corrected. Thanks to Hawk_5 for pursuing this old and obscure bug.

The recommended version is now DCS v6.0.5

Also, I have updated the Technics Processor Tool in the MP to v1.1, taking HeadYawHalfRange parameter into consideration as well.

Cheers,

DCS v6.0.6 has just been released, correcting a string handling error in the Map Loader, which only became apparent for Barents Sea operations. Many thanks to Gross for reporting this bug.

Dore has just made his mapping work for the "Thailand (ffb)" map in HSFX6 available to SEOW. I have incorporated it into the MP under v6.0.7 which is being put into the MP AutoUpdater right now.

There is an SQL update file for Thailand available for download. This file inserts the relevant Thailand data to add Thailand to any SEDB60 database.

This makes 3 sectors that Dore has produce/reworked very recently. We all wish JP a wonderful holiday in the Indian Ocean!

Mapping available in MP v6.0.8 through the MPAutoUpdater.
Data available from SEDB downloads site, as a simple updater script.
