  1. Thank you for providing this information. I stand corrected for one additional plane besides the F-16. While its good to see knowledgable people handling at least 2 of the FMs, you need to do this for ALL of them, I'm afraid. If all FMs aren't up to snuff, then its just as unrealistic as having none of them up to snuff IMO. My plane may be accurate, but thats no comfort if the bandit I'm fighting has a FM from an arcade game. I exaggerate, of course. However, I really do feel that the bar has been set very high for "the next big thing". Gone are the days where the playable planes have accurate FMs while all the others are scripted. True, and people do bring it up from time to time. I cannot deny that. However, I often see it swept aside pretty quickly and everyone just goes back to talking about it like its the greatest thing since sliced bread. You could be right, here, but I don't usually see this. ***EDIT: I'm editing this to specific: you have more dealing with that community than I do. You're a better judge of this than I am. I'm only going on what I have seen. *** With the LOMAC forum where there's usually a discussion about something technical every week, usually more than one. Sometimes people remark about its all being rehashed, but that doesn't stop me from learning something new or at least seeing a good debate each time. Heck, there's a new guy over there right now asking questions about radar, BVR, reality vs. fiction in LOMAC, etc. Oh, and regarding that thread about the MiG-29 vs. the F-16...wasn't Mower's first response something like "the Fulcrum's avionics are barbaric. That is all."? Wow, what a reasonable and well thought-out response! :smartass: I could go on about the elitest vibes I get from that community, but thats not the point of all this. You say that the community is uncritical? Ok, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. What are they doing about it? Dividing their efforts into making 3 or 4 illegal versions of the same 10 year old sim? Is anyone communicating with Lead-Pursuit? Hell! Is Lead-Pursuit communicating with them!? Do you see my point? Contrast this to ED where you have ONE official and 100% legal developer, on going communication between that developer and the community, increasing integration of the community with that developer (ED tester, ED partners, etc), and best of all, transparency. When I fly the Ka-50, I will know what I'm getting. If I encounter an enemy Apache and I want to know about the realism of its FM, I have but to come to the forums here and ask and get many community responses as well as a very probably response from Wags or another community manager. ***EDIT: again, I'm going only on what I have experienced. Feel free to point out similar instances of this in the Falcon community. Say what you want about ED's support of LOMAC, but this communication and support as of late has been very meaningful to me. ***EDIT*** By all means, if anyone has information that is to the contrary of what I'm saying, please share. I would only be pleased if I saw something different. I can't really read any links at the moment, but I will when I get home from work.

  10. I am happy to see new mods to Falcon. I didn't like it but from some time I liked it a bit, thanks a super realism of avionics how said mvsgas even today isn't beated. I only hope that some company will do sequel of Falcon on new engine, but now thanks mods we have a good avionics realism mixed with prettier & prettier graphics (but it even doesn't close to example FC terrains, objects). Anyway Falcon won't die, thanks all modders who want to do better Falcon ;]

  11. well i have one question, are there new argumentations in DCS to animate the pilots, cause, it really really is a pain in the ass to animate the pilot to look like a real pilot, cause in lockon we only have the head animation, and well maybe some know that i am buliding a new f-15c for FC with a new detaillevel never seen before as f-15, with a new pilot which has some nice animations too. just as a thought of mine, when ed wants to remodel the pilots, the should also make new argumentations for the pilots, as there are, pilots head, right arm and left arm, torso of the pilot so that he can be move in the seat a bit, for example when he turns around to look back, the pilot normaly has to lock around the seat. but well , for which kind of planes do you guys need the pictures of the pilot exactly, cause there are some differences between an eagle pilot and an viper pilot. maybe you guys should talk to the simmod team, cause we are building new pilots right now. one is done, the eagledriver, and a new su27 pilot will follow in the next few days. would maybe save alot of workingtime greets borchi_2b (boom boom)

  12. ну за вопрос в ТС или в чате об обстановке на данный момент никто не пошлет, а наоборот направят куда надо ;), посылают, а в большинстве случаев просто игнорируют вопросы о том: как включить питание, куда рулить, куда лететь, как стрелять, как определить кто свой а кто чужой ( обычно после пуска и попадания в своего, ракеты :) )

  13. Yo! Let people show their feelings as they want and spare your comments. No one have to behave like you'd like to buddy. He shows respect in his way and you shouldn't judge him - same to me for this post but I couldn't resist, sorry.

  14. Cpt Stark Thanks for the rep to answer your question there are four plates for the new model each is 2048x2048. Some areas on the model have as much as 200% increase in resolution in some areas, and much less increase in others. The real resolution for a model is not based on what size the plates are 2048 or 4096 but how large of an area is given to a part thats wrapped. I have attached an example of the deference in mapping in the left nose section to give you an idea of what i mean you will see how much more area the new A-10 models template has.This section of the nose has an increase of about 140%in area. The back ground is 2048x2048. The total usable square pixel count is still less than the Su25T model's that has 12 different size skin files files that go with it.

  17. Honestly, in my opinion is that they should let that series die. They need to let it die, mourn its passing, play the Falcon versions available now, and wait for someone like Lead-Pursuit to make the next version from a new engine. How much longer are they going to prop up that tired old sim? Yes, it looks nice, but I take one look at that terrain and its clear that its just more make up slathered on an old face. Don't get me wrong, I like Falcon. I own it and play it from time to time. I'm just tired of seeing it window-dressed ad nauseum and simultaneously hailed by the fanboys as some sort of religious experience that is superior to all else. All the while, we have little idea how accurate any of it is beyond the F-16, since no one in the Falcon community discusses anything like that and the community doesn't seem to have any active SMEs in any community testing it like ED has for DCS. Outside of the Viper's canopy, it could all be just blue planes painted red. I have my suspicions that this is the case when it comes to avionics and weapon systems (in other words, MiG-29s and R-77s are just F-16Cs and Aim-120s with a different 3D model). I do know that the flight models are different.

  18. @Golfsierra- Instead of posting that in this thread, you should have created a new one. This thread is depressing enough as it is and now we gotta see it again....comeon. @shamandgg- grow up and give Kojack better respect without the gaming language crap.:mad: @frazer- I feel the exact same way! As for this thread. LET IT FADE.....LOCK IT.:lock:

  19. Whoa, I've crossed this old news somehow, b000!!! I didn't know. He met one of these "oh sheet!" moments, and meeting his fate he was doing what he was born to do. His dream of flight is now twice as real, as he's gone now on the other side. Lived and died like a hero. Will remember him as that. S!#6
