Heatblur Simulations A-6E

Hello everyone we finally now have Automatic bay Doors for our SU-57 Felon on Build 5, also the engines and FM continue to improve, the engines now take time to recover depending on stress while using TVC, i hope that you guys will enjoy this Mod once we finish it, we also have a team for the SU-57 so this helps a great deal, have a great time everyone. https://youtu.be/nh07X5Z_ptc Testing simple Sonic boom Effect thru sprites.

Hi fighters Today we will show 2 airfields Herzliya (Israel) and Amman (Jordan). Since the first post about the update, many events have happened: new airfields have been upgraded, changes have been made to old ones. If you see corrections to your requests on the forum, be sure to write in your topic. I hope that we will see the next screenshots of this update from you Herzliya (Israel) Amman (Jordan) (over there on the highway to the left of the airport you can drink good Arabic coffee)

Backseat FCR and Hellfire COMING SOON In this DCS: AH-64D video I’d like to offer an example of using the FCR with radar-guided Hellfire from only the backseat. I understand that most players will primarily be using the AH-64D from just the backseat. This video builds upon the earlier FCR videos like FCR controls. I’ll continue the series of more detailed instructional videos on the FCR, but this video is designed for those of you that simply wish to run-and-gun from the backseat while raining down Hellfire. NOTE 1. Yes, we plan to allow George to engage with the FCR, but only after we complete FCR development. NOTE 2. We will later add LINK mode that will slave the TADS to the FCR NTS. NOTE 3. We will add the FCR to the reloading pop-up. NOTE 4. As always, these videos provide a preview of an upcoming feature to assist you in understanding a new feature. Later, it is quite possible that the feature will change, and the feature functionality has changed. As much as I’d like to, I lack the time re-record these videos.

For those of you who missed it, please find today's surprise Demo from VIAF 2023 below. We would like to thank the entire VIAF Team for making this happen, but also for putting up such an amazing show the entire past two days! Please consider heading over to their twitch and leaving them a followership, as a thank you for helping us to put this show together. https://www.twitch.tv/virtualairfestivals Congratulations also to all of you who won an F-4 Phantom today and yesterday at VIAF and in our discord! We hope you enjoy the first ever DCS: F-4E Phantom II Demo, flown by your very own @graywo1fg - the voice of Jester!

Some good news: both white flashes and black flicker issues should be fixed with the next OB update.

Так и не рыцарский турнир. Вообще не понимаю что вы хотите сказать, что не нужен модуль или что? ЗЫ - Дайте:

Well, some projects takes more time to finish.

I fly the dora a lot and got pretty good with it. Yes its no turn fighter. If you wanna do this, this bird is not yours. She´s an ambush berzerker. I need to have the alt advantage especially over the Mustang. I also had a few engine bleeps however, these might have been connected to wrong engine warmup procedure. you can and should take off with about 80/90 deg on oil and coolant. no less. Also check, if your mw50 is switched on especially on servers that have the mw50 off and the aux tank filled with fuel.. itll wreck your engine. Personally i dont touch the rads. I climb with 3000 rpm and 10 m/s with 4000. You can also climb with 3250rpm at 15-20m/s with somewhere around 350 ish, i dont do this right after the start tho. And on the contrary, the dora can climb. Especially with mw50. She´ll even outclimb the K4 easily. She is no high alt bird. 6000 is about her performance ceiling imho. Shes a low to med alt fighter. You have to fly her very conservatively and most of all patiently and with discipline. Extend if you do not have the advantage. Thats basically a general rule, but its even more important in the dora and even more in the anton. Then reposition and reengange from alt and speed advantage. The dora can turn with the spit with start flaps for about 1 full turn. Often thats enough to place few crippling shots. You should fly alot of yoyos with her, and slashing attacks. Pilot skills bein all equal, the most trouble youll face with the dora is against the mustang. they pretty much on even terms. The spit is just a nuissance really as its pretty much slower. Yes it can turn, but if you stay high and yoyo up and down the spit cant do much. Mossie is cannon fodder. P47 can be tricky but generally is a pretty slow target, up high is where the p47 shines.

Hey Timex3. As NavyBrown mentioned. It has already been created but will be overhauled. More so updating the weapons. It's located on Page one of this Forum. # 18. I will remove it once it has been updated. Thanks, NavyBrown! I'm currently working on USS Oak Hill and LPD Foudre FPS issues. The FPS issue has been resolved on both Mods. Weapon testing in Progress. There's another DCS update coming before the end of the year I think. Let's hope it doesn't cause us more issues.

The new product the high detailed B-1 is proclaimed to be "a part of".

So I’m an incomplete quadriplegic and, yes, I can actually fly jets and helicopters in DCS. It’s not the easiest though. Even with my custom accessible controller, obviously everything takes me a little bit longer since I don’t have individual finger dexterity to multitask as quickly as everyone else does with all of the buttons on the stick and throttle. Dog fighting in the merge is probably never gonna be the easiest thing for me but that’s OK. I can already do much more than I ever thought would even be possible. I love DCS. And I know the idea is for it to be a simulation without too many assists but I think perhaps a small exception which I will suggest here can be incorporated to make it easier for disabled people like me as opposed to just making it easier and more game like for the general public. in my case, since I can’t use rudder pedals, I use my split throttle quadrant as the tail rotor control when flying a helicopter. But since I use the other split quadrant for the collective, I can’t realistically do both exactly at the same time so I have to jump back-and-forth which clearly is not ideal. If DCS incorporated a tail rotor assist (flight simulator 2020 has it and it really helps) it would greatly help us be more effective helicopter pilots. for Jets, air to air refueling is just not feasible for me due to the need for fine motor control both on the throttle and stick. I have put countless hours into trying and it’s just not really possible for me. Perhaps some sort of assist for this or even fully automated tanking (I would personally prefer an assisted version so I feel that I’m still flying the jet) would be incredible for disabled pilots like myself. These are really the two biggest issues for me right now. Happy to discuss them in more detail with anybody at ED or otherwise. cheers!

In DCS there is no way to control how multirole aircraft defend themselves. They tend to wait too long and get attacked before reacting, usually jettisoning payloads and being forced into inadvantageous positions as a result. If we could assign self escort tasks, they would provide some degree of control over AI self defense. I envision two primary tasks, but there might be a need for more: 1 - Self Escort - This is basically a copy of the existing Escort task except the group that is assigned the task will escort itself instead of another group. The purpose of this is to set a radius around the group within which they will automatically attack threats of the type specified in the task (fighter, interceptor, etc). An addition to this feature over the original Escort would be an option to only engage uncontested enemies. In other words if checked, the self escort only triggers on enemies that are not being engaged by other units on the same side/coalition as the self escorting plane. If checked, the AI does not engage fighters that are being attacked by other friendly fighters. Example image: xxxx xxxx 2 - Search Then Engage [ also In Zone] - Similar to the existing Search Then Engage tasks, but also has the checkbox for engaging uncontested enemies. I would like to suggest implementing this previously requested change to Search Then Engage of all forms: Summary - Give us control over what part of the route Search Then Engage covers to prevent the AI from chasing things 200 miles away. These tasks should also be available for ALL Task categories. Otherwise this existing problem may persist:

Actually a fix was just verified today. Not sure if it will make the next patch but it is coming.

Ignore him - you won't make him see reason because he's obsessed with the idea that someone might get a tiny advantage over him in PVP and is willing to have every other DCS user blind as long as he personally is OK. The tiny number of ultra competitive people like him have been screaming and shouting over perceived 'balance' issues out of all proportion to their actual numbers for years - they've been an absolute pestilence on the DCS community and they've had it all their own way for much too long. I don't know why they don't just take up Fortnite, if they want to participate in an E-Sport.

You seem to have no idea about how module maintenance on DCS works, and that’s fine. But you don’t need to be an asshole about it. Do you expect mission designers to play through every single mission every time there is an update to DCS. They must rely on people (nicely) bringing it to their attention, then they can fix it, and then it can be released on ED’s scheduled update timeframe. You were given a way to easily continue on with the mission by simply tuning into a radio frequency and that should have been the end of it on your side, until the next update fixes it for everyone. Buy or don’t buy, but Baltic is one of the best mission creators we have. If you don’t like it, make your own campaigns.

Hi search light issue has been reported to the team thanks

18C неиронично превосходит МиГ-25П по всем статьям, тем не менее фраг есть. F-15C и МиГ-25ПД выпустили друг по другу все ракеты и разошлись. Ход Ирано-Иракской войны в воздухе. Бумажные сравнения это хорошо но неинтересно. Интересно будет на серверах когда выйдет модуль.

Merchant Aircraft Carrier

The first 190s were faster than their contemporary Spitfire Vs and the Soviet aircraft of 41/42’, which is where it got it’s reputation from. The Spit IX redressed things. By the time the Dora arrived, the Luftwaffe was already in deep poo: - The southern and Russian fronts had most of their fighters withdrawn to Germany to defend against bombers. - Fuel availability was marginal - The Luftwaffe pilot training was never enough. The numbers being trained were initially not enough, then as the war went on, fuel shortages cut training time down. There were also numerous examples of training units being scraped for crews in knee jerk responses to new threats (eg Torch landings in Tunisia). The result being that as attrition worsened reducing the number of experienced pilots, you had a far higher number of relatively inexperienced pilots. That’s demonstrated in the massive increase of aircraft lost to “non enemy action”. It’s very similar to what happened to the Japanese airforce and why the Marianas Turkey shoot happened - The pilots were told to focus on the bombers and try to avoid allied fighters - aircraft were setup more to destroy bombers, eg the 30mm canon, which added weight and reduced their turn rate - Once long range fighter escort was available, the allied fighters would typically massively outnumber them. I read an example recently of a massive USAF raid, that was intercepted by a squadron of just 5 Luftwaffe aircraft, two of the pilots being straight out of training - The allied aircraft continued to improve, eg the newer versions of the Spit, P47 and new aircraft, eg Tempest and Mustang So yes, the 190 was a great aircraft at at inception, better than allied aircraft. By the time of the Dora, it had got faster, but was facing massively more allied fighters, which were as fast and had better pilots.

Sorry, what South Atlantic must be the “least flat” map in DCS…

You could slew the HOCAS cursor over the desired target and depress to designate as the NTS. What was the NTS becomes the ANTS.

У Falcon сегодня днюха - 25 лет ! Мои поздравления - мальчик уже большой стал. И еще растет.

@Raz_Specter Hi there, is there any update on the following assets ? The Falklands war era assets were a major factor when purchasing this map and so far the promised/implied assets have been rather thin on the ground. Ai Assets still awaiting for: Sea Harrier FRS1, Harrier GR3, Canberra, Pucara, Sea King, Wessex, Lynx, Mirage III, Type 42 Destroyer, Type 21 Frigate, Type 22 Frigate, County Class Destroyer, Assault ships Fearless/Intrepid, SS Canberra, Oberon SSK plus many, many others. I enclose your WIP shots for reference, any reply as to the status of these assets would be very much appreciated.

For YOU on YOUR hardware! I see the airplane fine in low res, it's the high res i have a problem with. You keep denying a problem you know nothing about, blaming my hardware which is one of the common popular headsets, blaming my eyesight and dismissing the issue. I don't think anything productive will come out of this. I don't play A2A and I'd like to, but i just can't currently. But the mindset that you share with some other people in the community is really blocking any reasonable discussion about it.

Unload the viper and point at his control zone.. It's a race for you to accelerate faster than him and get the viper behind his 3/9 line. Make him continue using his nose authority to try and keep you infront of him, in turn he stays slow. Pull the viper hard through 400 and then unload and accelerate from 350-450 while you make a mad dash for his control zone. Cycle this sequence at the right times and you will end up offensive. Unload when he is slow and pull hard when he is fast. You have a huge acceleration advantage from 300-500, exploit that. Use the vertical, nose low when you want to accelerate, nose high when you have too much energy. Use the roll rate of the viper. Pirouette in the vertical to keep your lift vector on him. When offensive, fly lag and pull hard for shots. Flying lead will just get you slow.

Don't pay attention to the whiners and keep doing what you're doing. It's an amazing work.

Hi TeTeT, Although the launch goes ok, the landing is a little short

What an amazing thread. Never noticed this one before. Gotta have a play with this.

It's a strawman argument, but I'd still rather have that than an airplane that's a clearly visible UFO at 20 miles but an invisible shimmer at 5 miles, since we're talking about looking ridiculous.

настолько противоречивые - потому что С, М, прости господи МС(который на самом деле скин для МиГ-21бис и который то и изучался в США) и МЛ(А) разные самолеты с разным крылом, двигателем, оперением и системой управления. Миг-23 был результатом изучения F-4 - если бы в СССР изучили и оценили опыт фантома то сделали бы тяжелый многофункциональный истребитель-бомбардировщик\перехватчик а не легкий фронтовой истребитель с упором на рассредоточение по запасным аэродромам и шоссе как МиГ-23. опоздал на лет 10 - потому что заказчик 10 лет гонялся за модой - то треуголка с ВВП, то изменяемая стреловидность, вместо того чтобы довести Е-8 и получить истребитель с местом под РЛС и пространством для модернизаций на 10 лет раньше. но воевать ему пришлось с F-15 и F-16 - В Ливане? В случае "горячей" войны большую часть боеспособной авиации синих продолжали составлять фантомы и старфайтеры, F-15 в 80е это как сейчас F-22 - мало, только на особо важных направлениях и половина парка "королевы ангара". И когда F-16 получил ДВБ? Думаю в DCS ливанский 82 год будет интересный.

@rkk01 I'm the same having family members who took part in the conflict. I too would pay for an assets pack so long as it contained at least the main ships that took part. I think the bottom line is that there will be no more assets, what other reason is there for a total wall of silence for the past two years every time I ask the question. Speaks volumes about Razbam as a company when they don't even have the decency to reply no matter what platform they are contacted on. Even if the answer is not what we want to hear, at least it would put the matter to rest. We have already bought the map, now that they have our money, why should they care ? I certainly will not be buying another Razbam product if I am deemed not worthy of a simple reply from them.

Trying to designate an individual contact on the FCR page with the HOCAS cursor while flying at the same time is not recommended and why I did not mention it in my most recent video.

It is not possible.

Во время ковида в боинг уволили всех инженеров из 80-х. Теперь непонятно, кто будет новые самолеты делать. А в майкрософт, скорее всего, уже нет людей, которые понимают, как ядро работает. Я по своему опыту сужу: если раньше деловые вопросы обсуждал с техническими специалистами 50-60 лет, то теперь часто приходят девочки-маркетологи обоих полов. Топ-менеджмент крупных компаний в основном думает не о работе, а об очередной смене таких работниц. Оно понятно - жизнь одна, но еще пару поколений такого менеджмента, и опять будем заново фанерные самолеты изобретать. Я б на месте ЕД не пихал ничего сложного в движок игры, а то им на смену придут те, кто не разберется во всем этом и запилит версию 4.0 на Unity для смартфонов

What do you think of an AW-101 Merlin currenthill mod?

maybe check here:

Hello! Great job! I would like to ask you to make some artillery. For example: 122 mm howitzer 2A18 (D-30), 152 mm howitzer 2A65 Msta-B, 2C7 "Peony" I would be very grateful

Yes, not far from the end! Turns out the problem was with the AI helo that now for some reason refuses to land.. I tried everything and finally just changed the parameters of the trigger to make the mission think it landed even if it is in perfect hover just 1m above the ground...

Yes.

Dear friends and pilots. Our team continues to work to improve the project. We are trying to move towards the tasks outlined in our roadmap. New airfields have already been modeled and are ready for testing (15 pieces). We are working to improve the quality of objects, trying to pay attention to detail. More than 70 new unique objects out of 100 planned are already ready and jute will soonmeeting with users. We are also working on the Tel Aviv and Jerusalem scenes in Israel. In Egypt we are working on Cairo and Alexandria. We will work with @cfrag to mark new unique scenes and objects in his perfect mission: I will share screenshots of new objects. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

He specifically mentioned the Prowler image as a possible expansion of A-6 module - a wish.

I think I actually made a cup of coffee and sat and put my feet up prior to starting the video last time. Better than any movie trailers by a long shot.

this would be a huge benefit, I love the sinai map but its very top heavy in its airfield distribution, having tabuk added would give us a lot more mission flexibility. @OnReTech

Here's hoping to see some more of the distinctive map objects, particularly those that improve Jerusalem from a poorly laid out farm community into the bustling center of three major religions. I don't care that they would be indestructible (I get that), but ya gotta fix the temple area. The warehouse on temple rock is...gross. Also Masada
