Hi, I had some nice feedback after posting my explanation of adding jtac's to missions, so now I feel I should make a guide like Warrior X fantastic series. Now I am not the worlds greatest expert but I do hope this will be of use to some people. Any comments or additions feel free to post and also any mistakes I have made:) Cib’s guide to adding Jtac to generated missions.pdf

А что в Вашем понятии лучше? Занижая ТТХ Р-27, вы аболютно не улучшаете новые ракеты. Даже отставшей техникой, с сербии был сбит Ф-117. И что? Р-27, очень мощная ракета, и я не понимаю почему в игре она питарда. Я согласен что принцип наведения и т.д может быть хуже...но поражающая способность очень мощная. Даже AIM-7 мощнее чем Р-27...почему то в игре.

Hi, I have been away for while from BS, Played a-10 mostly but it seems to be little too hard to me with all that avionics. Great sim anyway. New IL-2 was a big dissappointment because it stutters all the time and i cannot enjoy flying it at the current state, hope the got fixed it. So i think playing great BS again, so my question is there coming patch to BS anymore and if it is, any estimate for it? Thanks, Kankkis

Has anyone figured how to make a looping trigger with set interval. Like this: Unit enters zone, and after that fire a flare every two minutes. Sure, it is easy to make it fire the flares continuously once per second, but there must be another way. A quick workaround might be to make a second trigger area far away from the battle and make another unit drive loops in and out to the area. Also, I haven't figured how to make a triggerzone that works only for ground units and will not activate with air units (and vice versa)

Yeah i'll "Acuratize" the arty coordinates... :P i fixed the MLRS one... that one WAS way off, my bad.... :(

2011, feb 25, Gryzlovo airfield. One construction bureau made electronic guidance for old AA gun ZSU-23-2. Army doesn't fly, so they asked sportsmen to fly - to check-up the systems. WpcBxoGM4WY&feature=player_embedded

Oh no mate that will never do. Just doesn't seem proper unless the bird is cold to jump things off.

Why, you want to shoot the airport personnel? I find it annoying that I have to put fuel in my car. :huh:

This should be stickied.

Hello All, We'll be having a 3Sqn Air-Air Squadmatch on April 2 at 0400GMT. Non-squadron pilots are invited to join our ventrillo comms and fly on the red side in MiG-29A/S and Su-27. A Red team lead from 3Sqn be on comms from 0345GMT to direct you and provide you with a password. There are a total of 10 slots, no need to reserve one, just turn up on the day and take any free spots. The flying should last until at least 0600GMT, so if you can't make it until a bit later that is fine too. Thanks!

Yeah, no spaces, but I did it for clarity sake.

Nor would MN568030 (never spaces in a MGRS coordinate, if you want to be strict about the standard - we're not, where I'm using them in real life) be read out as MN56830, which is what DCS:A-10C does currently. ;) Unfortunately, it also reads out MN056830 as MN56830, so you've only got a 50/50 chance of guessing it right. It is a bug.

А я по твоему не знаю, что нет?:) Насчёт перезарядки - тут ты не прав, видать про оффлайновые мисси говоришь, а я про сетевые, в сетевых подвесы менят другое дело, и многие думают, что с проверкой файлов это сделать невозможно. На самом деле возможно. Собственно, ЛО - игра, ради балланса можно многое поменять. Хотя я не люблю Локонвские реализации ракет дальнобойнее Р-73 :), но может кому пригодится.

На стандартном Су-27С нету Р-77 и их подвешивание невозможно. Они подвешиваются только на Су-27СМ и других совершенных ему модификациях. А вот то, что урезали способнось МиГ-29С обстрела двух целей одноврменно меня сильно обижает :( Кстати Айм-120 сделана серьёзно завышенной, ведёт она себя сверхестственно как ракеты, во всякий Американских фильмах. (не только в плане поражающей способности) :mad: И это даже более совершенно, чем она совершенна в реале. __________________ Быстрота полезна только при ловле блох.

:thumbup:

changing the lodMult value in Graphics.cfg does work now... I've set mine to 1.5 (I've tried 2.0 also and it works even better but there is little FPS hit so I've decided to leave it at 1.5) The way it works is if for 3D model it's set that from high lod to low lod switches at say 500m, lodMult of 1 will mean lod will switch at that value of 500m... if you set it to 2.0 it will switch at 1000m... this means more polys to render for the video card and it does decrease performance... as a benefit objects do look better further out

Согласен.Старые не старые,а летают и сбивают...Это не должно влиять на ТТХ и БЧ ракет :protest:

Я обычно не добавляю новые точки, дабы не захламлять тад, я обычно двигаю на цель стирпоинт. На таде выбираешь маршрутную точку, которую хочешь подвинуть на нужные координаты, далее на ufc жмёшь func, цифру 3 (или же просто кнопку wp на панели cdu, я на нампад повесил часть кнопок от ufc и самой панелью cdu не пользуюсь, мне так удобнее) Далее на cdu выбираешь пункт steepoint и делаешь то, что сказал ФрогФут. Всё. В принципе, добавлять точки практически также, только надо сначала скопировать точку (osb 8 или 9, где то там рядом. Под рукой сейчас нет а10, не могу посмотреть), и желательно ей вписать нормальное название. В английской ветке, если поискать, можно найти краткое руководство по этому делу.

You would not need any other profiling software, not even necessarily programming different devices in different tabs - all the devices can be programmed in the same code (and you can for example use a button on an x52 as a modifier for a functionality on your CH pedals etc). It would be a direct programming approach instead of wrapping it in a semi-programmable profiler application. You would get access to each of the devices' *states* and could write simple conditional statements as if you were doing very basic programming. The thing is that you don't need to replace or rewrite any of the functionality. You only need to Give access to 1. Read current state 2. Input virtual keystrokes ( that your game reads) These two things are what I mean will be only a few hundred lines (in fact it might even be below 100 lines of code, much shorter than my previous projects). What would require more work would be simplifications of profiles and GUIs, that could be a lot more code.

Дело в том, что тут важна не только дальность подрыва. Существует неправильное мнение о том, одна единственная цифра реально характеризует последствия, которые может причинить взрыв. Например, если смотреть на самолёт сверху, то видимая площадь будет составлять Х (икс). У любого самолёта эта цифра разная, но в любом случае Х - эта максимальная видимая площадь. То же самое при взгляде на самолёт сзади, видимая площадь будет равна У (игрек). Представляем, как самолёт вертится перед нами вокруг всех осей. При этом, какой бы стороной к нам самолёт не поворачивался видимая площадь не будет превышать значение Х, но и не будет меньше значения У. Это очень важные моменты. Дело в том, что то место от куда мы смотрим на самолёт является местом подрыва ракеты. Так как Х и У условны, пусть и ракета будет условна. Каждая ракета оснащена зарядом взрывчатого вещества и определённым количеством готовых убойных элементов. Это основные параметры, которые создают зону поражения. Так же известно, что убойные элементы размещаются под внешней оболочкой корпуса ракеты, непосредственно за ГСН, приблизительно до двигателя ракеты. При взрыве, убойные элементы разлетаются в пространстве в форме расширяющегося кольца. Так вот, если во время взрыва самолёт будет повёрнут поверхностью У, количество осколков, которое попадёт в цель будет минимальным. А вот с расстоянием тут вообще интересно. Осколки распространяются в пространстве в виде сферы усечённой сверху и снизу. В этом случае каждый метр имеет значение. Если взрыв произойдёт на пару метров дальше расчётного значения, сформировавшиеся осколки не смогут причинить цели ущерб, так как плотность осколков двигающихся в пространстве постоянно уменьшается, вместе с ней уменьшается вероятность попадания такого осколка в цель.

A-400 performing cold test in Sweden (february)

This is the final design of the UFC. Externally this is complete. Internally there are a few things to work on, some holes, a connector for the PCB, a few screws here and there, etc. Electronics will be the cheapest thing on here likely. I've priced all the actual components, and excluding the cost of PCB (may etch my own), and the BU0836X I already have, it will be just a bit north of $20 dollars in switches and the like. The nice thing is everything fits inside the head unit of the UFC and it's nicely accurate in dimensions and design to the real unit. I have an option I will pursue on getting the faceplate and buttons crafted, which may work out to everyone's advantage, but I will say nothing more on that matter at this time. I have a pattern created that once cut and bent will form the rear box, I'll have to find someone competent in aluminum welding to close the seams. Everything I have designed here can be laser / water cut from .063" and .125" aluminum sheet, and the head unit and buttons easily milled on a three axis CNC.

I've used the trim in an F-15 (hey, it's closer than anyone else's comparisons :P) and it's not all that dissimilar from DCS A-10 from what I've seen. I think the difference is that in reality, trimming will actually move the stick so you have instant feedback, whereas in the videogame you basically just have to go off what the aircraft does. You can tap a trim switch in real life and feel that stick respond, whereas in the sim, well, you can't do that. I've noticed that a completely minuscule tap of the trim hat will provide an appropriately minuscule trim adjustment. You have to be *very* delicate to get a perfect trim. What's nice about this is that there's no 'minimum' period for trimming like there typically are in other flight sims. The slightest tap registers and will have an effect. That explains why my arm was tired after I got this home... http://i.imgur.com/lcTPG.png Trim would've been very helpful :D

That hat set as buttons shouldn't be a problem if configured accordingly. As the hat that I'm using for trim has also been set up as buttons as well. I suppose I could look into SFJackBauer's profile and see whether or not that is the source of the problem. As I think I should be able to at least open the profile with the Saitek profile software even though I own an X-65F myself.

Thanks for sugestions! Fighter Combat: Tactics and Maneuvering on the way... and it looks like a bible for me. Do you know other interesting titles? I'm searching for valuable and meritorical books instead "light read" ones.

My father told me an anecdote of one time he was in a Il-18 taking of from havana to Santiago and wen he reached to v2 something flashes on his left, bang warning noises all over, the plane start to pull from that side, with a hell of effort he manage to get the plane on the air, then declare the emergence and with only the motor of the left wing he manage to land again and nothing happens, beside the bad smell in the cockpit :) jejejeje. After all the passenger got out he went to see the mess and in the middle of the left aileron was a hole the size of cal .30 and a mass of bird, feathers, like a pattee of liver(don't know hot to say it in english). Is a shame I cant translate the story just like he told me it would been more funny and scary and the same time. sorry guys for my poor english. Shinigami Out...

Leporello With this mission don't touch any radio frequencies they are already set. If you have Easy Communications ticked in the Gameplay Options menu it will work. When the sim loads and just after you press the un-pause button, imediately press the radio menu button, then press F1 'Wingman', then F1 again 'Navigation', then F1 'Anchor Here'. He should say 'Copy' and maintain a holding orbit, if he does this everything else should work. Make sure you are in 'Simulation mode' as oppossed to 'Game mode', I've never used Game mode so don't know if any radio commands are disabled. I have just re-tried this mission and it works exactly as I have said above. Edit : I assume we are talking about the 'Instant Action' Easy-East Georgia-Spring mission If it doesn't you must have a Options item incorrectly set (which one I don't know) or a faulty mission file.

I have Allied Force going back into standby if this next patch doesn't work.

Нет никакой проблемы. И не было никогда. Устанавливаем драйвера PPJoy, вешаем обзор на его оси, в интерфейсе фритрека указываем вывод на PPJoy и наслаждаемся обзором.

In addition to my rather limited TOLD pdf, which only covers Nellis AFB, another user made a very nice mission planning program that I believe will give you basic TOLD data as well. As mentioned here and elsewhere, the AoA indexer is a great tool, and indeed makes life easier. However, prior to approach the pilot is required to calculate a Final Turn Speed (used during the turn to final), an Approach Speed (used during straight-in final), and a Landing Speed (used at touchdown). The calculation is based on gross weight, and represents the minimum allowable speed for the approach. These minimum speeds must be respected, even if the AoA indexer wants you to fly slower in order to get "on speed". The computation is as follows: The assumed configuration is gear down, full flaps, and speed brakes 40%. The aircraft gross weight is assumed to be 30,000 pounds. The baseline approach speed is 130kt. Add 2kt for each 1,000 pounds over 30,000 pounds. Add 15 knots to the calculated approach speed to determine the Final Turn speed. Subtract 10 knots from the calulated approach speed to determine Landing Speed. For example, at 35,000 pounds, the Final Turn Speed is 155kt, the Approach Speed is 140kt, and the Landing Speed is 130kt.

Have you seen this thread yet?? http://www.scsimulations.com/forums/showthread.php?1139-Aero-desktop-themes-improve-performance.

Hello all, I'm on the board again. :-) I succesfully bought my new computer environment and FC2 also, so I try to convert the Mig-21bis for the FC2. I try to insert some new features like tactical nuke with their pylon and SPS-141 jammer pod as well.

Thanx for all. guys, if anybody see any little difference from the real, i ask you mark it on my posted pictures. regards, Krieger

I have it and I would say yes it is excellent and still regarded as one of, if not the definitive book on the subject. I would also somewhat agree with Mower. Read the reviews on Amazon; they are pretty accurate, this isn't a light read. I usually devour books in one or two sittings - you can't with Shaw.

You should! Very good reading!

It can be rather frustrating for those of us that dont belong to a squadron, there dont seem to be so many 'community servers' like the 104th is for FC2 yet, but it does seem to be improving slowly. Its looking more and more like there will be a BS-A10 Patch which will help, and theres some good servers coming on line, just had an enjoyable morning with the 77th.
