  1. Earth poles were always "drifting" and in earth history have several times flipped (magnetic north pole switching to south). That has nothing to do with global warming, though. Here's a very scientific proof for global warming:

  4. Можно подобрать реалистичный угол с помощью сетки прицела. Для этого нужно, чтобы в игре угловые размеры сетки правильно соответствовали угловым размерам объектов на разных дистанциях. Если так - то дальше все просто. В сетке прицелов отечественных самолетов одно большое деление равно 20 тысячных, а расстояние от цетральной точки перекрестия до нижнего кольца – 100 тыс.(не путать с диагональным крестиком на отметке 35 тыс.) Или, другими словами, 100 тыс. – это 5 больших делений. Тысячная - это угловой размер объекта с базой 1метр, видимого с расстояния 1000 метров. Легко посчитать, что 100 тыс.=0.1д, где д – расстояние от глаз до монитора во время игры. Допустим, к примеру, расстояние от глаз до монитора во время игры 56 см. Соответственно, тогда 100 т.=5 см 6 мм. Берем обычную линейку, включаем режим «сетка», и подгоняем угол. На мониторе 17` получаем угол примерно 37 градусов.:thumbup:

  5. Hi guys, I want to share this with you, because I have received a lot of help from many guys in the forum, and want to give back some of that help. Here I will explain how to configure lua files to show the ABRIS on a second monitor, in this case a Samsung U70 7" USB LCD monitor. At first things look a little bit harder, but they are not complicated at all. One important thing is the resolutions of the monitors, in this example I used a Main one with a resolution of 1440x900 and a mini monitor with a resolution of 800x480. Before getting into the action we need to do a few things. Enter to the screen properties windows and select configuration, then select from the dropdown box the second monitor and enable the option Extend the desktop to this monitor. In the same windows you will see a Image showing two monitors, number 1 is the main monitor, and numer 2 it's in this case the mini monitor. If the image of the second monitor is at the left of the main one, click on it and drag it to the right of the main one, and when you see a box with coordinates, move it until you see 1440x0 coordinates, then click OK. If your main monitor use a higher resolution, don't worry, the procedure it's the same, for example, if the resolution is 1920x1024, move the second monitor, until you see the coordinates 1920x0. As the ABRIS is showed vertically, then we must rotate the screen on the second monitor. If we were doing this for the shkval, we don't rotate the screen. Now we need to calculate the area that will show the cockpit and the ABRIS, and we obtain that value from the sum of the width from first monitor and second monitor in this case 1440+480 = 1920. We sum 480, because the ABRIS is showed vertically instead of horizontal, if we are doing this for Shkval, then the total area will be 1440+800=2240. Enough of complex maths, let's go to the action. Now we need to modify and create lua files. Before this, make sure you are using a proper editor for this kind of file, there is a free one and popular called Notepad++, it's a free editor, just google it, and you will find it quickly, or if you are familiarized with this, use your favorite one. The first file you need to modify is options.lua located in ...\Ka-50\BlackShark\data\scripts\ open it and go to the final of the file, once there you need to change a few values. The last file we need, will store our dual monitor configuration and we could create it or modify one of the existing in ...\ka-50\Config\MonitorSetup, I recommend you to open one of the availables, and modify the values. Open the file Shkval+Camera.lua and you must see something like this in your editor: Next we modify the next values: Once all the values are in place, save the file as Camera+ABRIS.lua, later you can change the name if you like, and make sure to save the file in ...\ka-50\Config\MonitorSetup. Now open the sim, go to options and in MONITORS: select Camera+ABRIS, yes it's the file you created recently and if you see it there that means you saved it in the right folder. UPDATE: The FULL SCREEN option must be unmarked. Save the changes on the options screen and begin the instant action mission. When the mission is loading you should see the second monitor showing a part of the background screen, that's normal. When the mission is ready to start, start it and you should see the ABRIS in your mini monitor, now you are ready to navigate to some target and blow up a lot of stuff. I hope you find this guide helpfull, and have fun. Saludos

  6. Проблема в чём непонятно,джой ST290Pro определяется в системе(WinXP,7) как работающий девайс.Но по сути неработает,отклонения Русом и нажатие кнопок ничего недают.В общем мертвый.Допустим вчера работал,а сегодня уже нет.В системе ничего нового неделал(смена дров и т.д.) Кто может посоветовать что могло сгореть или ссылочку общеобразовательную дать.В какую сторону копнуть прежде всего.Провода до платы целые,внутри джоя тоже в заводской оплётке . Интересно ещё почитать про возможные улучшения,модернизации. Фото платы прилагается.Качесто неочень(телефон).

  8. How it works right now. The data batch rate can be capped ( by default 30-50 fps ). Lockon data rate is not locked to an explicit frequency! Instead it has a "minimum time before next update" and at least 1 lockon frame between updates. This is due to a lesson learned in lrm development. Lrm originally used coroutines for a fixed update rate, however this can cause major issues during normal game stutters ( the queued coroutine calls will then group up and make the stutter MUCH worse). Later LRM switched to a "per beforeNextFrame" system, which is also used by Leavu2 for data export. This has the drawback of not locking data export rate to a fixed interval ( only a minimum or maximum interval ), but this is compensated by processing teh data upon arrival. Lockon data export function luaExportBeforeNextFrame if currentTime - lastExportTime > minimumInterval then lastExportTime = currentTime; ExportData(); end end

  9. Sorry man, just got me curious. At any rate not to derails this to much, not sure if it is news to anyone here. I lived in Holloman for 3 years and never saw this. I guess the track there holds a speed record. check this out. http://www.holloman.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?fsID=6130

  18. From Greek lomac website (admin "sisifos") Cheers Ike4fin for pointing me at this one. "There's 6 new Auto-pilot modes for the Su-25T. The plane does auto-pilot by trimming itself with trim tabs to match the mode required. On exiting most auto-pilot modes, the trimming is bound to be incorrect and you'll flop about. In the other planes you could cancel trim with Ctrl-T. But for the Su-25T, you can get the correct trimming by choosing the Emergency leveling mode(ALT-3), which puts you level and straight, and then exiting auto-pilot altogether with ALT-9 or A.Overall, when you use auto-pilot once, you have to use it forever more." That clears that up. I need to map some more autopilot modes to the stick. :joystick:

Speaking of Pin-ups anybody miss those old pin-up girl paintings they used to put on the aircraft during world war 2? I miss those. I would'nt mind having a long legged redhead in a military jacket and skirt on my A-10. Oh well days long gone.

  20. i tried this driver and i likes it . i likes it ,, alot . :thumbup: i did find ,,over cities , the sim ran ,, smoother . :smilewink: i have my fps capped at 30 , so i cant really tell by numbers . but i can tell ,, by gameplay . this is the smoothest driver ive ever used . its worth a try . cheers again mastif ,, for the heads up . S!

  21. On what you're missing from not going on Ultimate and all that - most of it is enterprise related or deals in some drive encryption stuff. Generally speaking you won't know it ain't there. You are limited to 16GB RAM instead of 192GB, but it'll be a while until a home user need to go up there anyway. :P (I remember my old Amiga 500 tho, with it's massively awesome 512kb extra RAM card for a full MEGAbyte!!! :D )

  22. Why should there be? If someone wants to update his instruments at 200 Hz, why not let him? :) Now that I think of it, there is already an upper limit set. I limited the data export rate to the framerate of lockon, so you cant go above that. Actually export depends on the "beforeNextFrame" function in lua, so this guarantees there will not be any issues with a lot of exports "queueing up" during a standard game stutter. The sim must produce at least 1 frame before another data batch is sent to Leavu2. Here is me feeding leavu2 at 30 Hz from FC2

  23. "lol yea 120 F degrees durring the summer..." There, fixed that for you (this is an international forum after all :)). Do you still notice the same speed-up over the big cities? If so then the driver is definitely worth getting (I have some Nvidia-equipped machines but am quite slack at updating since I usually get sucky speeds over cities no matter what the driver).

I can't think of more essential piece of equipment to aid in flying for me, plus if you get the visor cap (with hatclip) instead of the std baseball cap you can attract a whole bevy of babes by just accidentally forgetting you had said item on your head while you pop down the shops for supplies, bonus.

  29. Do yourself a Favour and Map the 'Emergency Levelling Mode' to your HOTAS [Alt-3]. Trims the Toad for the specific Flight Parameters at time of Engaging Mode. Useful as a Sort of 'Quick-Trim' function.

  30. Again, trim reset doesn't function on the the 25(T) as the real plane has no such function. You manually trim and you always work from your last trim point. You will find that you never miss a reset function.

  32. Trim reset doesn't work in SU-25 but you can use level autopilot(alt-3) to get it in stable trim. Heres nice tutorial for it: http://lockon-greece.forumotion.net/forum-f8/topic-t52.htm

  33. Another tip for X52 users not related to programming but good to know. On the X52 (not the pro) you will have little "jumps" on the X-axis. If you go to the X52 control panel and then select the Deadzones tab, you will see the jumps when you gradually pull the stick backwards. The way to fix this? Not what you would think of. Press and hold any button and pull the stick back again.......no jumps. So, for X52 users, it would be good to tape one button down (preferably one of the muli function display buttons) to increase the precision of the stick!
