Sharks, TARS, and Warthogs This brief document covers the use of the T.A.R.S. with the Kamov Ka-50. A special thanks goes to EinsteinEP for his essential help in the correction and review phase. Summary 1. Introduction 2. R-800L1 3. R-828 4. An example 5. Appendix A: ATC/NDB table 1. Introduction I would like to share a couple of hints about the TARS (Tactical Aviation Radio System). These suggestions are an outcome of several hours spent testing and looking for a good balance between realism, flexibility and practicality. I hope you'll find something interesting in this thread or, at least, a reason to discuss. As you maybe know, TARS is a plugin for Teamspeak and the DCS Series made by Headspace Headspace. It allows the use of the in-cockpit radios just as in real life, with interference due to broken line of sight (LOS), frequency setting, and much more. You can find more info here: http://www.excessiveheadspace.com/tars/ There are two voice radios aboard the Ka-50: the R-800L1 VHF and the R-828 VHF. The SPU-9 knob allows you to select on which radio you will talk (by changing the microphone input): - VHF-2: R-800L1 VHF - VHF-1: R-828 VHF - SW: Short Wave (not implemented) - GND CREW: Intercom to ground crew (you can also just open the door if you are on the ground). 2. R-800L1 This is your main radio. You will use this one to communicate with other flights, ATCs, and A-10Cs. Technical details: Freq. Range: from 100Mhz to 149Mhz and from 220Mhz to 400Mhz. Maximum distance: 150km Notes: 1. It requires LOS to work properly. Mountains and other obstacles can drastically reduce the quality of communication. 2. The VHF-UHF boundary is at 300MHz so you may hear the R-800L1 referenced as a “VHF/UHF radio” sometimes. You can interact with this radio by the controls in the R-800L1 VHF Radio Control System [see ED manual 6-99 for more info]. The main controls you will use are the frequency wheels. With these wheels you can select the frequency on which the R-800L1 transmits and receives. Another important control is the “Guard” switch. It immediately tunes your R-800L1 to the guard frequency, 121.5 MHz (this frequency is not related to the TARS Emergency Frequency that you can find in the TARS Control Panel). Sadly the ADF radio functions are not currently supported by TARS and only work with in-game radios (AI wingmen, ATC, etc.). Important note (thanks to Eddie): the Ka-50s data link also uses the R-800, so in order for a flight of Ka-50s to employ data link they must be using the same R-800 frequency. This can lead to issues when using the R-800 for intra-flight/package comms with more than one flight of Ka-50s. 3. R828 This radio is intended to be used for communications with FAC and ground troops, however it is a good “intercom” for Ka-50s. It works between 20MHz and 60MHz on 10 different channels: 35.650; 25.675; 48.550; 35.650; 67.775; 52.825; 48.250; 42.050; 52.750; 23.725 Employing this radio is very easy: select a channel then press (and keep pressed) the little ‘TUN’ button until the light below it goes off. Even if this the R-828 has prefixed frequencies, you can always change them editing the file named “r-828.lua”. 4. An example What does having two different radios mean? Well, as an example, you can listen on both then choose which radio you want to transmit from. The main advantage is the ability to use a different radio for each flight and a common frequency for inter-force communications. This is a representation of how we usually manage frequencies in Fighter Combat Sims: Each flight has its own “intercom” frequency and all of them can communicate with the others by using the IntForce Frequency (145MHz AM). We give a lot of importance to the AFAC role performed by Ka-50s. A solution like the one above allows the components of the AFAC flight to communicate in freedom without disturbing other flights and, at the same time, having a free channel to report tallies, status, SAM launches, and so on directly to A-10Cs. Obviously, this is just one example, and there are many possible combinations: for example you can use the UHF to communicate with Kamovs because the R-800L1 can reach some UHF frequencies. I suggest you to test a lot and find your own configuration. This few lines are not enough to explain the complexity and the huge sense of immersion that this little plugin adds to the game. However, I strongly suggest you to give it a try, you won’t regret it! 5. Appendix A: ATC/NDB table * [] = NDB type. Info:

не обижайся, но мнения тех кто называет полеты просто ИГРОЙ и приятным, быстрым времяпрепровождением, меня практически не интересует. как однажды BJ, на желтом, на вопрос одного вирипила- смотрите ли вы шарик на индикаторе скольжения при совершении маневроф: он ответил - (дословно) И после этого вы ждете чтоб я к вам прислушивался? :) вот когда летая в РОФ нужно положить бомбочку аккуратно в танк , "шарик" один из самых главных приборов.

Так судя по количеству постов, это как раз ты этим занимаешься. А опыта у меня побольше твоего, как оффлайна (сотни сделанных миссий и десяток кампаний), так и онлайна. И таким как ты, не мешало бы прислушаться к более опытным.

All good stuff Viper.... And, if you slave the tgp to the mav, (switch tgp on one mfd, mav on the other as SOI) and maximise the slew rate (slow it right down), you can get a pretty good FC on the object from well outside the mav screen's visible range, by looking at the TGP view. Hmm, On second thoughts, mabe its easier, as you describe, -to slave from TGP

Чем дальше тема, тем дебильней хотелки! БОТ ты наверно только на форуме тусишь, а не летаешь. На серверах где хотят, в миссиях ставят пустые без топлива и оружия самолеты и все- вот тебе и задержка взлета. Перед взлетом нужно заправляться, а это время. Я хочу играть, а не трепаться как ты в сети, сидя в Ка50 так и не взлетев (был свидетелем такого случая). Переход из коалиции в коалицию. Тут чего спугались! Тут проблема очень редко. когда заходит чел за синих, сносит ПВО синее, а потом заходит за красных и играет. Ну это явное преступление заслуживающее бана на месяц (поможет регистрация на сервере игроков). Ну и все. Разведданные какие я могу получить? если зайду к врагу. На карте не хрена не видно что там что тут. Ибо ее нет в сети. Кто мне мешает миссию распечатать со всеми путями передвижения по времени техники и посмотреть тригеры врагов? Зачем тут какие то задержки. Ведь бывают случаи, когда нужно перейти: много игроков за одну коалицию, кореш пришел решили вместе полетать, компания не та, что с ними не хочется летать, с вами не хотят летать, своя компания собралась в одной коалиции. Да много ли причин. Зачем ограничивать самим себе возможности. Может ктото курит и у него времени много. Я не курю, кофе не пью и времени у меня нет, чтоб сидеть как поцу и ждать у моря погоды в отстойнике. Потому что меня сбили. Там так будут все сидеть ибо всех сбивают и слушать байки форумных свистунов в ТС или читать в чате. И тут всплывут читерные настройки и трусливое не вступление в бой. Авось собьют и придется 10 -30мин париться, когда игроков от силы 10-20 в лучшее время. И то из них можно еще половину выкинуть. Ибо многие не знают даже как завести мотор. Так нахер мне такая сетевая игра нужна вообще.

^Awesome.

My Uncle:

I'm for the balkans (home sweet home :D)and besides that we can have naval ops, mountains, plains there is a good variety, not being stuck with Afghanistan's desert rocks, bombing ice in Canada or drug dealers in Mexico ...

For SHKVAL only OK BS1 procedure works different than BS2 it seems For BS1 you need to edit SHKAVL_init.lua line 50 and comment out render_purpose.GENERAL with -- For BS2 as stated by ZMEY-HS

Not sure if this has been posted before. its one of my faves. Everything from this guy is pure gold. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9uGD2upNGE&feature=BFa&list=HL1334285321&lf=mh_lolz

You need ViewportHandling.lua. http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1325482&postcount=35

I've done it! Hey Guys! I've done it! I managed to get Helios and IVibe both working with the export.lua file. It took some disecting of the lua files, but I've finally got it working! :thumbup: It'd take forever to explain everything I had to modify, so I'm just going to provide you folks with a copy of my new lua file (see attached). Backup your existing export.lua file and rename this one to export.lua in your config/export directory of A10. WARNING - Don't let TARS or Helios overwrite your export file or you'll lose these settings. If you want to add TARS support, just add this line to the bottom of the file: dofile("./Config/Export/TARSExportA10.lua") FINAL WARNING - I haven't had time to completely test this so please use at your own risk. So far, I haven't had any issues but I've only flown with it single player for 10 mins... The TFS3 works much better for me using this method. I hope this helps someone, Mack Helios + iVibe.lua
