I thought flight sims were dead. That there was no money in it. That the cost of development far exceeds any return. That sales are horrible. That no dev team in their right mind would tackle such a project. That the communities are extremely small and don't have enough "oomph" to warrant new flight sim products. To the naysayers around the videogame development/publishing industry, I politely ask you to suck it. Good job, ED.

Please wait. A new Tacview will be released in the near future for FC2

People I thank you very much for your kind wishes. I'm sorry that I saw the messages little bit delayed. ED game me a big birthday gift with FC2.0 also :) Good luck and good flights!

View.lua is the way to go im afraid........... head_roll_shaking = false <<<thats how, can be found in the view.lua file at line 223 head_roll_shaking_max = 45.0 As for the FOV open snapviewsdefault.lua and snapviews.lua snapviewsdefault.lua gives some explanation on what numbers in the tables mean. (1st column is aircraft id, see view.lua to see what id belongs to what aircraft) 2nd column is the kind of view, 13 is the default cockpit view, the one you need to change. So if you want to change the cockpit view of the SU25T to be fully zoomed out do the following; open view.lua and look for its id, which is 4 now open snapviews.lua and scroll down untill your at 4, then we want to edit the default view so scroll down till the 2nd column lists 13 set the "viewangle" to 120 Snap[4][13]["y_trans"] = 0 Snap[4][13]["x_trans"] = 0 Snap[4][13]["hAngle"] = 0 Snap[4][13]["viewAngle"] = 120.663398742676 Snap[4][13]["vAngle"] = -20.0 Snap[4][13]["rollAngle"] = 0 Snap[4][13]["z_trans"] = 0 not sure what the y x and z trans options do, but i guess it changes the point of the camera in the cockpit, ie, moving it left/right,up/down,forward/aft

I'm a tester for this project, and I can say that the model as exact as it could be. You've got a picture of this (dontknowhowtocallitinenglish thing under the HUD) and on your's the same situation is present. And one more thing the model IS perfect - you can take a ruler and try to prove that it is not. And one more the model is better than simmod A-10 and the same class as Su-25T - if you do not see that maybe you not get some things in aircraft 3D modelling.

Sorry, we didn't get the memo.

Хочу немножко похвастаться.:)В ГС2 так же будут представлены дополнительные схемы окраски и для Су25Т. Сделанный мной и Valery.Надеюсь вам всем понравиться.

Витка флуда не будет. На все подобные вопросы есть FAQ. Тема закрыта.

Yes, new TACVIEW in development. I'm sure Virtuoz will be posting something soon enough.

Renato71, you can try this: It works in DCS:BS.

Fps tweak ideas I've made the following 3 changes which lets me run medium details 4xAA/AF 1920x1200 and get more than 80 fps in the F-15 quick mission zoomed out. It is not always perfect, but for me it makes the game look a lot better and smoother. This is nothing official, just my own personal ideas on how to improve performance. My computer specs are: xp32, 4gig ram, E8400 c2d and HD4870 512 MB Step 1: Edit original "Config/Graphics.cfg": Medium { near_clip = 0.2; middle_clip = 5; far_clip = 140000; structures = {40, 4000}; trees = {1000, 6000}; dynamic = {300, 20000}; objects = {3000, 80000}; mirage = {3000, 20000}; surface = {14000, 80000}; lights = {100, 30000}; lodMult = 1.5; lodAdd = 0; } to this: Medium { near_clip = 0.2; middle_clip = 5; far_clip = [color="red"]120000[/color]; structures = {[color="Red"]25[/color], [color="red"]3000[/color]}; trees = {1000, 6000}; dynamic = {300, [color="Red"]5000[/color]}; objects = {3000, [color="red"]40000[/color]}; mirage = {3000, [color="Red"]15000[/color]}; surface = {[color="Red"]5000[/color], [color="red"]15000[/color]}; lights = {100, 30000}; lodMult = 1.5; lodAdd = 0; } Step 2: Edit original "Config/Graphics.cfg": LandLodDistances { LandDay { L01 = 30000; L12 = 50000; } LandNight { L01 = 20000; L12 = 40000; } . . . } OldLandNoise { perSquare = 5; perSquare2 = 150; front = 1000; back = 10000; top = 2500; map_high = 20000; bottom = 2000; noisemax = 0.5; noisemin = 0.1; } to this: LandLodDistances { LandDay { L01 = [color="Red"]8000[/color]; L12 = [color="red"]40000[/color]; } LandNight { L01 = [color="red"]8000[/color]; L12 = [color="red"]40000[/color]; } . . . } OldLandNoise { perSquare = 5; perSquare2 = 150; front = 1000; back = [color="Red"]22500[/color]; top = 2500; map_high = 20000; bottom = 2000; noisemax = 0.5; noisemin = 0.1; } Step 3: Replace your Bazar/ModelLOD.txt file by 104_route's file : http://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=37312&d=1269732322 (old fc1 trick which I cannot see any diff from) Watch the beauty of FC2 :)

Whoever at ED is responsible for the ballistics in FC 2.0 needs to be rewarded. I've been trying out the M61A1 and GSH-30 all afternoon. If the ballistics in FC 2.0 are considered to be realistic now, I'm glad, because now they also make more sense. The laser beam bullets in old FC and other sims are not only unrealistic, they make it too damn hard to actually hit anything. It always seemed like all or nothing. You were either all on or all off. Pipper off the bandit one pixel? Sorry, nothing hits. Now I can actually pull the trigger, pull the pipper across the bandit, and not only hit, but usually tear it to pieces. The guns behaves like an actual gun shooting actual projectiles. I no longer have to zoom the view in to this unrealistic HUD-only view to feel confident that I'm actually going to hit something. I especially like the wall of lead you can spit out with the M61A1. ED successfully turned it into the chainsaw of death it is reputed to be. Bravo! :clap:

Check this thread. I can't assure you that everything is working perfectly, but, what I was able to see in my tacview playbacks all appeared to be working just fine:-

ТУ-22 Просто адский :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI41sB76V4s

Если Вы не в состоянии найти в настройках, как установить полноэкранный режим и назначить дальномер на кнопку джойстика, то может Вам пока рано в симуляторы играть? В Винде есть прекрасные встроенные игры - солитер, косынка и т.д.

Happy Birthday man!!!! :yay: :beer: :drunk: Maybe ED will give you some extra gift today you lucky son of a gun ;)

Благодпрю Вас СЭР за Ваши знания и подсказку. Все получилось. С уважением. Михаил.

This is exactly the same as what I said to you so why did you give me a negative reputation for helping you out?

some quoting from my PM answer for further questions on this features:

Парный пуск Вихрей возможен только в режиме "Залп" (см. щиток управления вооружением), сходят один вслед за другим почти без задержки (но именно один после другого).

Самоубийца? :shocking:

damn, must try harder.. a restart.............. again. might leave it a bit and go back to te other plane... any one want the the ships I was doing???

Тут ничего сложного в скачивании, "не скачиваемого" видео нет. У меня например Опера-просматриваю видео(т.е оно уже на моем компе),дальше лезу в кэш Оперы и смотрю какой файл самый большой за сегодня(ну или был изменен только что),потом переименовываю его формат в .AVI- и оппля! p/s Чтобы увидеть этот самый кэш(если ничего не путаю) надо в свойствах папки указать на отображение скрытых файлов

Id like to know which smart ass decided to change the existing key combinations. Why??

Нашел маленькую техническую неполадочку - при назначении команды База цели\Дальность до цели на любую ось, пытаюсь изменить дальность, не работает, меняется только база !!!Дальность меняется только клавишами.

You can use it to your advantage as an incentive to start learning Russian ;)

Сильно или не сильно, но я не привык когда картинка бегает. Повторюсь, фича в любой момент отключаемая и включаемая.

EDIT 2: ***SOLVED*** u must ADD simulator.exe on nvidia control panel. that does the trick. thx, IM a happy customer again!!!! thx guys, will try and report back. gtx 260 running 196.21 drivers. EDIT: FC 2.0 icon on desktop, propierties. DESTINATION: "D:\Program Files (x86)\Eagle Dynamics\LockOn Flaming Cliffs 2\bin\x86\stable\Launcher.exe" --console im trying to EXECUTE Simulator.exe, but it doesnt run FC.2.0 i can run the game with LAUCNHER.EXE, only.

of course. each of them NEED an ACCOUNT. u log with their USER AND PASSWORD. BUY, (serial will be there after payment.) they log, check if all is ok. Everyone is happy, then. specially ED/DCS. :) EDIT: dont do all at the same time, so u dont make a mistake, buying twice per account. a good advice, once u got the serial, once they are logged in, ask them to change PASSWORD, to avoid you to make mistakes. double check download language too ;) GL.

NICE!!!!:thumbup:

You're welcome :)

Change your axis Z in "Absolute Longitude Shift Camera View" and assign it to the zoom view Regards

Here's what I do. 1. Create the Eagle Dynamics folder in Program Files myself manually. 2. Right-click and go to Properties -> Security of this new folder. 3. Make your Windows logon user (e.g. mine is 'topdog') the Owner of this folder, and give this user Full Control access. 4. Install the game letting it go into C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\blah\blah Result: No need to disable UAC. No need to Run As Administrator. No messing about with the VirtualStore or having double copies of the same configuration files. No decreased security in the OS. Basically just like being in Windows XP but without letting the app(s) run rampant around your system to places they should not be allowed to go, exactly how the security should work for you. It's just a shame Microsoft didn't see fit to produce a decent user's guide / delta guide for users upgrading from earlier versions of Windows. Their guides are aimed at glossy 'wow here is new cool feature X doesn't it look cool' without actually covering the important differences and generating all sorts of phobia against UAC or the Program Files location.

I'm sorry you had problems. Make sure you check the MD5 hashes on the download page against the files that end up on your disk. I recommended using this if you want a tool and guide on how to do it:- http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841290 It was easy to use; I download the file, I didn't even bother installing or following instructions even, just extracted contents with winzip and then ran it from command line like this (it'll take a minute, the files are big):- C:\Users\Topdog\Downloads\windows-kb841290-x86-enu>fciv "c:\Users\Topdog\Downloads\FlamingCliffs 2.0\Setup-1.bin" // // File Checksum Integrity Verifier version 2.05. // 89637de77f61443c7d831d1d402a6094 c:\users\topdog\downloads\flamingcliffs 2.0\setup-1.bin C:\Users\Topdog\Downloads\windows-kb841290-x86-enu> Compare it with the info on the Lockon files download page, the values should be identical, and if they are, you can be fairly certain whether or not the problem requires downloading again or something else. Good luck.

Use TORRENT! It does CRC checks on the fly. No way you will get corrupted files.

Happy bithday: Mutlu yıllar Torwak...

...*sigh* and how about a short workaround - like an... overlay in a corner [like the fps-overlay in some games etc]? Upper Left Corner Overlay: "01 263 40.9 2.7" "Waypoint_number Heading_to_waypoint Distance_to_waypoint course_deviation" That must be at least some easier to implement, as it's just a hook-up on the base system, no? (And it had allready been made for 1.12, just not as an direct overlay, but an seperate program, done over the export.lua)

I flew the FC2, I got to say, It is VERY OUTSTANDING WORK. This is the best Simulator game in current market. Now Im looking forward for a FC2 manual printed out. The manual looks great and I am hoping they will print in two opinions B/W and color, I know there is huge price difference between color and B/W printing. again I dont know how to say this repeatly, Outsanding work, ED(Chizh, Olgred, Wags and others) Beta testers (polecat, GG, Cougar and few others)...

Ну я рулю... мне нравится :) Жду, когда разработчики вертолет приделают, хочу на Ка-50 в ЛО полетать.

Happy birthday! :clap_2:

Мне кажется, если бы у зарубежных друзей был выбор, многие бы тоже предпочли диск. Особенно, если есть надежда что диск будет дешевле. Так как у них выбора нет, они качают за 30 долларов. А многие Россияне ждут диска по нескольким причинам: 1. Нет возможности заплатить тем способом, который указан. 2. Нет возможности скачать такие большие файлы. 3. Есть желание сэкономить, и я не вижу в этом ничего плохого. 4. Многие не привыкли делать нематериальные покупки, хочется пойти в магазин подержать диск в руках, испытать, так сказать чувство собственника ВЕЩИ. Но я уверен, что все вирпилы купят этот продукт рано или поздно и несмотря на жаркие споры вокруг него мы будем любить его не меньше ЛО1.

Thanks GG, great information ;) "ARH missiles will now track down to very low altitude. No more <10m safe zone." THIS will be awesome, especially against those who like to fly like that over the water :)

SU 35 flight test at Maykop with SU 30 of test pilots unit as chase plane....

По запросам в сети одно и то-же.

Thanx for your opinion. Excuse for a "conspiracy" :D , and my English. "Anonymous authors" :) it is myself and my friend Valery. Scart helps us with testing. There is some misunderstanding. This model is not by ED, and not for ED. It's just a mod. We hope you enjoy our work. Now the model is almost finished. I work with LODs, Valery maybe make some new skins.

Thank you guys very much for all kind words! :) dooom - Take a look on a project page, I've described step-by-step setup instruction, with what step you need help? memento10 - Thanks! You can run BSVP's on main PC and on secondary PC, but lua script need to be modified for communicating in this way :)
