  1. Would be interested in that one as well. Can somebody of the developers give us a hint about that? Something else which isn't in yet is the salute animation. I hope the reflections will be added soon though.
  2. A workaround would probably be as follows: If the Mission is preplanned in the ME then you check the time you have to be at IP. Set your TOT to this time and your target should be the IP. When you reach this on time adjust your speed to the corresponding ground speed between IP and "real" target. This way you get there on time AND with the correct speed. Would be happy if the bug could be smashed anyway. @The developers: Consider my formula to calculate the appropriate speed for correct TOT :-)
  3. Formula for TOT-Calculations So the calculation should be as followed: v_TOT=s_waypoints/(t_IP-t_now ) with t_IP=t_TOT-s_(IP to targetwaypoint)/v_GSPD , current time t_now, s_(IP to targetwaypoint) being the distance between the IP and the target waypoint, t_IP being the time you should be at the IP and t_TOT being the time on target. s_waypoints is the sum of the distances between two consecutive waypoints in the waypoint sequence (starting with the currently selected waypoint and ending with the IP) plus the distance to the currently selected waypoint. The early/late Caret should be placed appropriately after comparing the current groundspeed with v_TOT. The Dropbox-link above gives a better overview because of a better representation of the fractions and variables. If anything is wrong just let me know.
  4. So as a note for the developers i wrote down the correct formula to calculate the correct speed to get the TOT-feature working correctly (hope i didn't miss something). The stuff is not too complicated and could be implemented easily (at least i hope so). If anything is wrong just let me know. https://www.dropbox.com/s/t2wjyr5xihys5um/vtot%20calculations.png?dl=0 Btw i couldnt add a pic properly so i posted the dropbox link. Sorry for inconvenience. Any advice on how to add pictures is greatly appreciated (maybe via pm).
  5. Ok, thx for the replies. Since this was already reported in February i guess there is no answer to when this will be fixed right? Btw, i didnt study the warthog yet but there is a TOT feature as well right? Does it work for the warthog correctly?
  6. Tot questions Hi guys, so i experimented with tot programming a little bit and found out that the entered ground speed doesnt effect the early/late Caret unless you haven't set your target Waypoint as a Navigation Waypoint. If you set your target Waypoint as a Navigation Waypoint then the early/late Caret just indicates if you are slower or faster than your entered ground speed (but it doesnt take into account the tot anymore). Is that intended? So using tot in a waypoint sequence just helps me to be on time at the target waypoint in a way that it gives me the right speed which should be then the same during the complete waypoint sequence. But then it doesnt take into account the Ground Speed after the initial point. So here is how it should worked (if i got it right): early/late Caret gives you the correct speed so that you arrive at the initial point at the correct time which corresponds to the correct tot taking into account the entered ground speed. E.G.: If you enter a higher ground speed then you should be at the initial point at a later point in time, therefore the early/late Caret should move to the right (which doesnt happen). If you enter a lower ground speed you need to be at the initial point earlier (because you need more time to the target) which means the early/late Caret should move to the left (you need to fly faster), which it doesnt. Am i getting something wrong here or is the tot programming buggy? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
  7. Well, I would be Ok as well with spending another 10$ additionally to the 30$ I spent during the KS campaign. Maybe that could be another option. Did I get it right, that in July another announcement will be made?
  8. I am still kinda confused. I pledged 30$ and chose the Dora as a reward alongside to other planes. Will I get it in August to fly in dcs world or will I get it later to fly in dcs world or will I get it later to fly in a kinda separated product dcs 1944? Any clarification is greatly appreciated because I am asking myself if I should buy the Dora now as well.
  9. Same Problem I got the exact same problem. I have got a 7850 AMD graphics card and the steam version running. I am using Windows 8.1 as OS. Any solutions yet? I also updated to catalyst driver version 14.1.
  10. Just in case i have missed it. WEP is still WIP?
  11. Yeah i just saw it. Now there is just the SU25T missing. Or will they release a training video for the MIG29 as well?
  12. Has anybody got an idea about when the missing training videos (for the F15C and the SU-25T) will be available for download? I know that they are available in Youtube but i prefer to have them on my computer and integrated into FC2.0 as like the ones for the A10 for example.
