Player Guide/Downloads

This page collects the downloadable artifacts VRS provides to its players - mod packs, kneeboards, charts, and anything else you should grab before flying on our server.
If you're new to mod managers, read Open Mod Manager first. VRS publishes a network repository so OMM users can one-click install and auto-update mod packs.
One-click install via the VRS repository
If you've followed the OMM setup guide, the fastest install path is to subscribe to the VRS repository:
- Base URL:
https://victorromeosierra.com - Name:
Mods/repo(without the.xmlextension - OMM appends it automatically)
In OMM, on your DCS Channel: Edit → Target Location properties → Network Repositories → Add. Then back on the main window, Network Library → Query → Download Selected. See the OMM page for the full walkthrough.
The repository currently lists:
| Pack | Ident | Size |
|---|---|---|
| Auto Starts | VRS_AutoStarts_v1.0.0 |
~50 KB |
| Liveries | Liveries_v1.0.0 |
9.7 GB |
Mod packs
Auto Starts
Quick-start macros for the airframes VRS flies (A-10C II, AH-64D, FA-18C, Ka-50 III, Mi-24P, Mi-8MTV2, SA342, UH-1H). Each one runs a consistent VRS Quick Start sequence on an in-game keybind.
Install via OMM (recommended): subscribe to the VRS repository as above, then download and install the VRS_AutoStarts pack from the Repositories tab. The pack auto-installs into your DCS install Channel.
Manual install (OMM or OvGME): download VRS_AutoStarts.zip (latest release on the VictorRomeoSierra/DCS-LUAs-VoiceAttack repo). Drop the .zip into your manager's Library folder, then install/enable it. Don't rename the zip - OMM and OvGME both require the inner folder name to match the filename.
The Auto Starts pack modifies aircraft startup scripts that live under the DCS install folder. DCS patches can overwrite these on update, so this pack must be installed through a mod manager (OMM or OvGME), not by hand.
Liveries
VRS squadron and unit liveries for the airframes our pilots fly.
Recommended install: manual copy into Saved Games. DCS patches leave Saved Games alone, so a plain extract is the simplest path:
- Download Liveries.zip (9.7 GB - this takes a while).
- Open
C:\Users\<you>\Saved Games\DCS\in Explorer. - Extract the zip into that folder. The archive's top-level
Liveriesfolder merges with (or creates)Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\. - Restart DCS. The liveries appear in the aircraft loadout screen.
To remove or update a livery later, edit the contents of Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\ directly.
Alternative: managed install via OMM. If you want OMM to track liveries (so you can subscribe for auto-update notifications when VRS publishes a new pack), set up a second Mod Channel:
- In your DCS Mod Hub, Edit → Add Target Location...
- Channel name:
DCS Liveries(or similar). - Target Destination:
C:\Users\<you>\Saved Games\DCS\Liveries- theLiveriessubfolder, not the parentDCSfolder. Create theLiveriesfolder first if it doesn't exist. - Add the same VRS repository (Base URL
https://victorromeosierra.com, NameMods/repo) to this Channel too. - Query, then download and install
Liveries.
Why the unusual Target setting: OMM strips the top-level folder of a mod when installing. Liveries.zip's top-level folder is Liveries/; if your Target is Saved Games\DCS\, the Liveries/ wrapper is consumed and files land at the wrong path. Pointing Target one level deeper at Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\ compensates.
Voice Attack profiles
Voice Attack is a third-party voice-command program that pairs with DCS to let you speak commands instead of clicking them. VRS provides a profile tailored to the AI mission's F10 menu and the CORE / UTILITY MARK system.
Voice Attack itself is separate software - install it from voiceattack.com first. VRS only provides the profile (.vap) file you import into Voice Attack; it does not install or modify Voice Attack itself.
Downloads (latest VRS-AI-v0.5 release):
- VRS.AI.v0.5-Profile.vap (~2.6 MB) - the full profile with embedded audio.
- VRS.AI-Profile.vap (~62 KB) - the profile without bundled audio (smaller, but you'll need to record your own command audio).
- VRS.AI-Profile.html (~133 KB) - HTML reference of every voice command in the profile. Open in a browser, no Voice Attack required.
To install: in Voice Attack, click the Import Profile button (or Options → Import Profile), point at the downloaded .vap, and it'll appear in your profile list.
These profiles are not managed by OMM (Voice Attack stores profiles in its own application folder, not under DCS).
