DCS: Beacons mod for Caucasus, Nevada, Persian Gulf, Falklands and Mariana Islands

This will add additional VORTAC/TACAN beacons to DCS as well as add ICLS beacons to airports with existing ILS signals so that US Navy aircraft (F-18 & F-14) can do low weather approaches to those airports.

Installation

Place the modified beacons.lua file into their respective folders, overwriting the original file.

Caucasus

• X:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS[install]\Mods\terrains\Caucasus

Anapa.extra2.cfg.lua goes into:

• X:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS[install]\Mods\terrains\Caucasus\AirfieldsCfgs
• This is an optional file if you want ILS/VORTAC information displayed in mission the under Airdrome Data.

Nevada

• X:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS[install]\Mods\terrains\Nevada

Persian Gulf

• X:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS[install]\Mods\terrains\PersianGulf

Mariana Islands

• X:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS[install]\Mods\terrains\MarianaIslands

Falklands (more to come)

• X:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS[install]\Mods\terrains\Falklands

Syria

• X:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS[install]\Mods\terrains\Syria

Afghanistan

• X:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS[install]\Mods\terrains\Afghanistan

  • Note: these files will most likely not be IC compatible, so save a backup copy of your original Beacons.lua
