  5. Actually, you can get angles like that, you just have to edit some .lua file (can't remember which one), and make the cockpit "restrictions" more open. I remember when I was making Project 10, the angle where the you see the GAU-8 firing for the first time, that was actually a normal cockpit view, but i moved the "head" outside the cockpit and forward towards the nose of the plane. It was also possible to create some sort of "getting into the A-10" shot. :)

  6. That video is ****ing awesome. :notworthy: I think I'm gonna buy some of our Swiss Hornets once their out of service, to do exactly this for the rest of my life. :hehe: EDIT: And I would love to see G and vapour Effects like this in DCS Fighter, for instance, until my Hornet arrives :music_whistling:

  7. or just spawn on the next available pad.... or allow multiple pads to be linked to a single "atc command" and just spawn wherever is available. What I am saying is its a stupid limitation. Especially if you want to have 2+ groups of AI helicopters be spawned at a farp and use the "uncontrolled" feature at the same time. It simply doesn't work, the first group must take off in order for other flights to be allowed to spawn.

  9. Very nice page. I also checked your Arma 2 blogs as well. Nice work! It seems that the trackIR_Z trick for zoom axis in the menu options does the trick. But I actually turned it off (unmapped it), together with Absolut longitudinal shift view. Now I have a unified zoom level. I practiced gun runs using default zoom, at angels 6, 4 click away from target, and it somehow worked. I find the whole thing easier when the target stands out agains it's background(foliage, raw terrain) as opposed to being cowered in a busy apartment block junction... :thumbup: However, I did a few runs the other day, and quickly withdraw that conclusion. The trick that was supposed to work, was the Gun hud Occult thingy turned on/off and just POINT TGP without lock on the intended target (to get a diamond only and no trailing designation). Either ways, the gun occult thing will obliterate the TGP diamond on either occult modes. So my currently partially valid finding, would be to attack between angels 4 or 5, set proper DTS elevation, dim the pipper/hud (overall) a bit, and from 4 clicks in PAC only ( I could kiss the inventor of PAC for such novelty). Also the trim issue with the campaign default loadout (2 AGM K and 2 AGM H, 2 AIR, 2 87's, rt. TGP 2AIM-9, lt. JMR) is easily managed with proper speed - VVI - ADI monitoring (or HUD VVI vs. aircraft datum). But just out of curiosity, the manual mentions a 1HE:5AP = 6 Rds, for a belt of 1150, and for a gun rate 4200 rds/min. Is the part about warming up modeled (first 0.5 sec?/10 rd spew)? I now follow the principle of gun runs for targets in the open against sufficiently discernable and contrastable background. Sorry for the bold.

  10. Вот такая хотелка. Хорошо бы добавить триггер, "юнит1 обнаружен юнитом2". Например. Задача наших, вылететь из нальчика и разбомбить грузинский аэродром. Но на территории грузии стоит станция ДРЛО. И как только она засечёт наши самолёты, по тревоге генерятся вражеские перехватчики на аэродромах. Или например летает вдоль гор вражеский патруь, а я хочу незамеченным по ущельям проскользнуть. но если меня засекают, то патруль вызывает поддержку. Сейчас есть триггер "дистанция до объекта" но это не то. Можно ведь пролететь рядом и остаться незамеченным.

  11. Most likely, yes. I believe they were in a flat spin heading out to sea. Great balls of fire. :(

  12. Wow, that video is gold. Okay, how's this for an idea. Again, I'm not really the person to figure out exactly how to build a user interface, but I'll have a crack. Normally, you would operate an A-10 according to a defined checklist. So as a training aid / operating aid, have an on screen checklist that can be exported to an iPad screen as well. The difference is, the checklist is actionable just by clicking a button, either to cycle through the whole thing, or action it one item at a time. Which is to say, when you press the checklist button, or tap the line in you iPad, the model of the pilot on screen reaches out and performs the action on the checklist. You'd look through a menu for the thing that you want to do, open the checklist, then click through it. When you got to the end, it would suggest things that you might want to do next. Add in stuff like a button that explains what the step you just took actually does ("tell me more"), along with an optional reminder of how you can do the step yourself, and you've got yourself a great way to both learn DCS and to operate the aircraft if you're too lazy to do things properly. Honestly, this isn't even that far from how I operate a 737. I've got this idiots checklist to startup, takeoff, cruise, etc. that fits on 3 A5 pages. A cheat sheet if you will. I keep it in the clip on the control yoke. Single pilot aircraft are operated according to memorized checklists (do-lists, really), and we train for single-pilot ops in our first two years of flying, so this is what I'm more familiar with. The last aircraft I flew had an 18 page checklist that you would say out loud as you did the items (get a word wrong and you're going job hunting). However in multi-crew operations you have a philosophy of flows (the doing part) followed by checks, where both pilots check that the correct actions have been taken, always done by reading off a paper checklist. My idiots guide then covers the flows, and a laminated page A4 kept in a slot on top of the glareshield contains the checklist. The only things you have to memorize (called memory items under the Boeing philosophy) are emergency actions (or "non-normals") for time critical events like cabin depressurization or engine fire/failure. Even then, the philosophy is that if you spilled your coffee you're rushing too much. Shutting down the wrong engine will kill you a lot quicker than letting it burn. I've only got about 80 hours in 737s (300 hours total flying experience), so it's useful to have a prompt in case I forget what order to do things in. That's military aviation for ya! But no, we are very safe and competent, like actually, when I put it that way we sound like a bunch of retarded cowboys.

  13. Objectively speaking, that video explains nothing (and I love almost all Hitler spoofs, even on subjects who's views i don't agree with). I just didn't find his arguments all that clever in this one. It's basically the over debated theme of airframe vs airframe. We've had the same debate on rotor craft and fixed wing modern jets (American vs the world). The Fighter Collection who's probably funding the development of the pony has a number of air worthy warbirds (and cold war jets) at it's immediate disposal. According to the TFC webpage...there are airworthy: Bearcat Corsair Curtiss P-40B Gladiator Harvard Hawk Hellcat Mustang TF-51D Nimrod Spitfire V Spitfire XIV Staggerwing Wildcat these are currently being restored Beaufighter CR.42 La-11 Sea Fury Spitfire IX Spitfire XXII Thunderbolt P-47G That list doesn't amount to anything other than the fact it's easier to model and simulate when you have the real thing in your backyard. Hitler failed to mention that ;).

  15. Why are you shooting at jets in the shark to begin with? especially the fast moving kind.
