I have three needles on the altimeter (10000 ft, 1000 ft, and 100 ft). I am trying to use the gauge: base_gauge_BarometricAltitude, but it appears that it only sends one number, the full altitude value (Ex: 11532 m), so I can only define the 10000 ft needle correctly. By extension, two needles will work below 10000ft and all three needles will work below 1000 ft. How can I use this base gauge to define all three needles? I notice the other DCS aircraft all pull from the *_common.dll files for their altimeter gauges through FM_PROXY. My code is below. If you could please advise on how I can use this gauge or how I can take it's value and perform a math modification on it to get the value I need to send to each gauge. Thanks! -- Altimeter --10000 ft needle base_gauge_BarometricAltitude = CreateGauge() base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.arg_number = 52 base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.input = {0.0, 30480.0} base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.output = {0.0, 1.0} base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.controller = controllers.base_gauge_BarometricAltitude --1000 ft needle base_gauge_BarometricAltitude = CreateGauge() base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.arg_number = 53 base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.input = {0.0, 3048.0} base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.output = {0.0, 1.0} base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.controller = controllers.base_gauge_BarometricAltitude --100 ft needle base_gauge_BarometricAltitude = CreateGauge() base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.arg_number = 51 base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.input = {0.0, 304.8} base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.output = {0.0, 1.0} base_gauge_BarometricAltitude.controller = controllers.base_gauge_BarometricAltitude

DCS does it a little more justice in the "looks" department :D

Too early to say. We would like to model all aircraft systems when the resources are available to do so. The ZA (combat trainer) and C (trainer) versions, that is.

Yup, well at least we can all fly it now..

Actually it's not :) We tried many different collisions models with same result. It's something hard coded and word is that this might be fixed soon.

Possibly :) If it was popular enough.

That's why I keep every beta install! :)

Pretty simple :) Copy your f-15c folder from: FC2/Config/Input/Aircraft/f-15c To folder: C:/users/username/saved games/dcs/config/input Then Rename it: f-15e

Copy over your controls setup from FC2 for the F-15 and rename it for the 15E

Yea, I've been flying the F15 since DCS World was released, but not in a way that adds a completely new aircraft or uses a different cockpit. It's not so much that I want a fully working F-15, but it would be nice to get an example of a complete working aircraft added through the Mods folder.

Alex, could you give an example of duplicating a default FC2 aircraft while calling a default cockpit that works as a sample aircraft? I've tried to remove all wunderluft references and duplicate the L-39, but the game crashes on me whether I try to fly in the cockpit or even load it as an AI jet.

Excellent! Keep the info coming! It will takes some time to go through these functions and see just how much functionality is available.

A few guys (Yaroslav and Sevas) from the Berkuts Aerobatic Team were the geniuses behind the Phantom software. They only had to make small adjustments to the program to get it working after most patches, but had to do a complete rewrite of the program for FC2. I wouldn't hold my breath for them to update it again to work with DCS World if it requires that much work, but it's always worth a try. http://www.berkuts.ru/forum/showthread.php?t=410 Because the program used recorded joystick and key inputs to "refly" the jet in real time in a multiplayer server, there were always some errors that could occur. My hope is that ED will eventually implement this feature to just replay recorded positioning, rather than inputs.

Reminds me of this. Made it a few months ago...thing was true scale from the movie, 15 miles in diameter!

Don't be so negative! Lots of people would like to see it happen, but it has been discussed a lot in the past. I believe it should be possible with DCS's superior netcode, but it will take some motivation on ED's part to make it happen, either with their own or a 3rd party made aircraft. The future looks great for DCS, so I believe this will happen, eventually.

^^ LIKE that! ^^ :)

If I'm not mistaken, all of Blaze's lates screenshots have not been shopped. He uses a post-processing affect on his game that affects contrast. And what's with all the trolls turning everyone on photoshop lately? I love seeing both types of images in this thread.

WH, fix was posted on pages 4/5.

Using a MS FFB2 with P-51 and my FFB is completely off, even centering force. I hear this is WIP.

Small one , but page 18: Prop diameter – 11 feet 18 inches

Thanks Coff, but most of us with this issue use A-10C and were able to login to A-10 when P-51 was failing. I will try this fix when I get home to see if it works anyway.

Yea, I've tried that method and even added the exceptions to the firewall. Guess I'll wait to see how many actually have this issue.

Same issue. I did try logging in with the same account that bought P-51.
