The Problem The ruler tool in the Flaming Cliffs 2.0 and Black Shark mission editors returns the wrong bearings. Due to the difference between the map in the editor, which is spherical, and the map in the game, which is flat, the bearing measured in the editor can be off by as much as 4 to 7 degrees. This will makes lining up units with features on the map very tedious. The Solution Replace BlackShark\modules\me_map_window.lua for LockOn Flaming Cliffs 2.0 and/or DCS:Black Shark with the file in the attachment below. The attachment changes the code in BlackShark\modules\me_map_window.lua from --local x1,z1 = Roads.xz(tape.points[1][1].x, tape.points[1][1].y) --local x2,z2 = Roads.xz(tape.points[1][2].x, tape.points[1][2].y) --local dist = base.math.floor(base.math.sqrt((x1-x2)*(x1-x2)+(z1-z2)*(z1-z2))+0.5) local lat1 = tape.points[1][1].x local long1 = tape.points[1][1].y local lat2 = tape.points[1][2].x local long2 = tape.points[1][2].y local dist = base.math.floor(db.getDist(lat1, long1, lat2, long2)) --local ang = base.math.mod(base.math.floor(360+90-base.math.atan2(lat2-lat1, long2-long1)*180/base.math.pi), 360) local cos = base.math.cos; local sin = base.math.sin; local atan2 = base.math.atan2; local pi = base.math.pi; local dl = long2 - long1; ang = atan2(sin(dl)*cos(lat2), cos(lat1)*sin(lat2) - sin(lat1)*cos(lat2)*cos(dl)); to local x1,z1 = Roads.xz(tape.points[1][1].x, tape.points[1][1].y) local x2,z2 = Roads.xz(tape.points[1][2].x, tape.points[1][2].y) local dist = base.math.floor(base.math.sqrt((x1-x2)*(x1-x2)+(z1-z2)*(z1-z2))+0.5) --local lat1 = tape.points[1][1].x --local long1 = tape.points[1][1].y --local lat2 = tape.points[1][2].x --local long2 = tape.points[1][2].y --local dist = base.math.floor(db.getDist(lat1, long1, lat2, long2)) --local ang = base.math.mod(base.math.floor(360+90-base.math.atan2(lat2-lat1, long2-long1)*180/base.math.pi), 360) --local cos = base.math.cos; --local sin = base.math.sin; local atan2 = base.math.atan2; local pi = base.math.pi; --local dl = long2 - long1; --ang = atan2(sin(dl)*cos(lat2), cos(lat1)*sin(lat2) - sin(lat1)*cos(lat2)*cos(dl)); ang = atan2(z2-z1,x2-x1) Essentially, the bug was that the bearing was calculated for the spherical mission editor map, not on the flat game map. me_map_window.rar

Good News Everyone! New version v.2.5 b11 - updated 18. May. There's a new Servman version available for FC2 1.0.2 and DCS:BS 1.0.2. (Note: You cannot use this version on DCS 1.0.1c) This version of Servman is almost feature complete - but there are still a few snags to iron out. A brief introduction is in place: - Servman allows admins and squad member to control and manage their servers via the chat system. - Players who join a Servman-enabled server will be able to enjoy MP as it is supposed to be, less teamkilling, less problem with your fellow players. I assume you have understanding of what Servman is, and what it can do for your MP experience beyond this intro. For more information, look at Acedys previous release: >>> ServMan Server Management Mod v2 for DCS:BS v1.0.1 Released! <<< Changes highlight for v.2.5 - Commandline interface reworked. Some commands may have changes since v.2.0. Most notably is the ability to use "short" variants of the commands. Class, pay attention: You don't use ":" in commands anymore - Ban/kick control. UCID ban support, as well as better ingame management of active bans. You no longer have to edit BANLIST.txt files to change bans. - Enable / disable kicks and Bans entirely while server is running. Plus alot of other key Servman-features. You need to check out the /SET command or read the admin section below. - Access-levels: ANON: regular players who is able to vote or get info. SQUAD: Squad access for common tasks. Use Squad-login for your squad members. Simplifies the administration of "usernames & passwords". Now you can assign a static username and password for your whole squad so they can do common tasks as "restart mission", "kick annoying player" and similar common tasks. ADMIN: Admin login is still valid for those who need more permissions (reinit / reload servman config / set config settings / save config). - Online help for all commands (with examples) by using the ? after each command. See /help ? or /v ? for samples. - Config files so server admins can save and reload while server is running -- Main server-config. - New modable files, for your convenience: -- permission-levels for all commands -- help-text explanations -- settings available for the /SET command - Simplified installation and disabling of Servman! Servman is now removed from the \Scripts\net directory. If you want to disable Servman in the future, you can simply rename or move the Servman folder - and your server should then be running with original FC2/DCS code. Note: This version is just a ZIP, but if time allows I will provide a installer / uninstaller as well as a ModMan package for it. Installation instructions Download, unzip. Unpack to \Scripts folder: - you will get a "Scripts\Addons" with Servman2 inside. - you will replace one file only, in "\Scripts\Net", the "main.lua". NOTE: Backup "Main.lua" before your replace it. If "\Addons\Servman" is renamed or removed, your FC2/DCS:BS will work as normal with no problems what so ever. You Servman folder contains this: A final note - if you DO have Server-crashes or other strange Server-issues, your first priority is to REMOVE Servman. There will be no support from ED and server-troubleshooting if Servman is installed. ----------------------------------------------------- Download Here Note: v2.5 b10 is just listed for download in case v.2.5 b11 causes problems.

Every now and again I see thin absolutely straight White lines shoot up over land and sea. Its almost as if they are a missile trail, though being perfectly straight show no guidance going on. However on some occassions they come out of the sea with no surface units present. Here is an example: Is this a bug ?

Honestly IMHO Eurovision is big shit since years. Where are old good times and age of good artists? Currently it is really big one commercial crap there hehe.

почему береза видит пуск Р-27ЭР с 50 км, а АИМ-120С может пролететь 25 км в режиме стелс? почему она не уходит на большие перегрузки, от неё нельзя оторватся, почему все так ужасно, почему не так как в оффлайне? почему я купил ЛО 2?

Онлайн трек. Я например комбинирую маневры..

Thanks Bucic Douh!

Yes. If one thing from flight controls is done in particular way you may blind shoot that it's done in the same way on all the rest of the Russian aircrafts from the last 3 decades at least. Even fighters and helicopters share a lot of cockpit elements. Why single lever? Probably the answer is - because they like it that way. Left and right wheel brakes are differentiated either through coupling with rudder controls (not necessarily anywhere near the rudder pedals) or not differentiated at all. A more knowledgeable guy would have to take over from here.

Логика такая: в пылу боя, летчик забывает включить систему защиты и соответственно увеличивает свои риски. Впервые с подобным столкнулись в Афганистане, и частично решили проблему введением такого режима. Кстати вопрос о существовании этого режима уже поднимался на форуме, по моему в ветке Ка-50. Я просто спрашивал, можно ли это сделать у нас в симе?

Ды нету... нету семерки у меня... И поблизости пока не предвидится. Виста - уж лучше убиться :) Ну да ладно, переживем :)

to all people who spend their time trying to help me, just wanted to let you all know, that black shark works without any problems after uninstalling it, installing it again an upgraded it to patch 1.02. greetings andi

Uninstall newview, it obviously hooks itself on the simulator window and causes the crash. Take a look here, maybe you will find something usefull (newview related) http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=883064

У меня такое было, но до установки патча.... Причём у меня, что бы увидеть эти окна (их иногда пара выскакивала) нужно было альт-табиться

Аварийный выпуск шасси используется при отказе общей гидросистемы. Тумблер "АВАР" переключает механизм выпуска шасси на основную гидросистему, в DCS Ка-50 бесполезен т.к. при любом повреждении одной из гидросистем - вылетают обе.

У меня была подобная, причём в ЧА, при просмотре трека после миссии (в ЛО треки ещё не смотрел, надо будет потестить), аналагично ни на что не влияет, на "окей" два раза нажать и полёт нормальный.

Interesting :) That said - Thank Goodness for the Mandatory Integrity Check!:worthy:

I don't know what you guys are doing. I regularly destroy light armor targets with two rockets and a direct hit. They are 80mm shaped charge warheads, so they should cut through that armor like it was butter. And besides, all you really have to do is kill the crew, and damage the controls to an unusable state. Now tanks like the T72 on up have a number of defenses meant to defeat older missles like rockets, such as explosive layers of armor and composite armor ( steel mixed with ceramic and other compounds ) like that found on the M1. Older rockets will need at least two hits on the same spot to get through explosive armor and the M1, T90 etc. have better types of armor and shapes meant to defeat shaped charge rounds. If you'll read in the manual, you'll notice the Vihkr has a tandem HEAT warhead ( i.e. two warheads, one behind the other ) meant to defeat explosive armor and give tougher modern armors a one, two punch. I believe the 122 mm rocket pods also have tandem warheads on the rockets. Use these for big game hunting and taking out hardened bunkers. Also, range should not really matter with a shaped charge. All that warhead has to do is touch the target at a good perpendicular angle to the skin, and explode. It has nothing to do with kinetic energy like on a depleted uranium round. When the shaped charge goes off, a stream of molten copper punches through the steel skin at around 1 million atm of pressure. Thats about 14 million pounds per square inch. Heat, pressure, spalling, and oxygen depletion kill the crew inside. I remember when I was in JrROTC attached to a National Guard Tank Company, one of the crew members used to joke that at least his death would be quick. The last thing he would see is a blinding white light.

А нельзя ли в профиле пользователя привязать кнопочку к адресу проживания? Что бы нажав на неё можно было видеть кто из твоего города дышит тем же воздухом (на некоторых сайтах видел такую фишку). Не с кем же даже пива попить, не понимают меня рядовые граждане, а слушать об их проблемах на заводе не всегда интересно.

Посмотрел трек из папки Demo. Это какие-то хилые касетные бомбы, в первой части ЛО были всетаки пореальнее. Посмотрите хотябы видео по их применению. Парни как исправить?!?

Управление в игре сложное и "интуитивно не понятное" (с) :), поэтому хотелось было бы здорово если бы выпустили мануал по типу хелпов для программ.

Откуда покупатель должен это знать? Это написано на коробке? Много ли таких кто сначала читал мануал и только после этого летал онлайн? Я долго летал офлайн не читая мануала и постепенно разобравшись. Когда уже сильно втянулся и полетал в онлайне прочитал мануал. Но по началу полётов в онлайне задавал вопросы и получал ответы, потом сам отвечал на вопросы. Не вижу в этом ни чего сложного. А если кого то сильно напрягает чат с вопросами то пусть он себе его отключит.
