I've had bolters & lots of 4-wires when doing ACLS. That's in really bad weather with pitching deck. Set Thunderstorm in ME, wind to 30kt, fog 3nm, clouds max, turbulence to 100 & see how it goes. (the more wind= more pitching deck).

Hello AcroGimp, What are your impressions now, after +9 months, since this post? Has the FM bugs been fixed? does the DCS Yak-52 fly as in RL now? Are there any major FM or other bugs left? /Thanx :)

Wonderful news! Looking forward to that very much :thumbup:.

Mig-21 replays worked flawlessly, last time I checked. That was on M3L's to do list as a bug & they fixed it! I don't see why HB couldn't do the same?

So rounds through the canopy in MP. RIO can get shot & die(seen it in SP), but not Pilot?

It's not estimates or dates we are after. It's a progress update on the Forrestal? Especially since this was posted more then 6 months ago, just before release.

F-14's radar & Phoenix missiles were designed to intercept large missiles in addition to bombers. So large missiles should & are visible on the TID DL.

Hopefully IronMike can help out https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4016103&postcount=80 ;)

There are already 2 good cockpit mods, HB don't need to create anything new. Just tell Japo32 how to make his mod "custom cockpit" compatible. He's been asking for this since April https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=236035 /Thanx :thumbup:

Is bombing on moving targets with Point-Track still WIP? I'm able to Point-Track moving targets but the LGB's never hit....only works if the targets are stationary.

Great idea! that would help out allot :thumbup:. /Thanx

Those textures are pretty good, especially when I just started to learn the RIO seat, that is hard to read. I would like to swap between HB's cockpit & this mod in "Customized cockpit" option that doesn't break IC. Why isn't this possible yet?

Yes I have the same results. It's very basic & un-innovative. I would think that the RL F-18C would have a more sophisticated TOT features then that? After all TOT or TOS is essential in all war-operations. It gives no indication when to take-off, no speed & time-keeping reference etc. I think it's still buggy, but I dunno? Would be great if we could get an RL F-18C driver explaining the TOT function.

Is it somehow we can change the priority while in TWS mode, when having 4 locks, without leaving TWS? E.g. With many airplanes in front. Jester will lock 2 "friendlys" in front of me as 1,2 then 3, 4 "bandits" behind. Then he'll drop the 1,2 "friendly" & lock another 2 "bandits" that's behind 3,4. Now nr:1 & 2 bandits are furthest distance away & that's not optimal.

Can we get a Jester menu command, so he can display Time-to-Go on the TID? Quite important for the Pilot when doing timekeeping & TOT missions etc. ;). Thanx!

The current shakings, buffets, cockpit & airframe sounds are very immersive & gives me excellent feedback of what's going on. These are just outstanding with TrackIR :thumbup:. I've never tried the F-14 in VR so I've got no idea of how it feels. But options are always good!

Shut off the engine, it's a sim, you've got nothing to loose + DLC will not be available with the left engine secured, https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=238077 when they've fixed the bug. No only the good engine to Mil at touch & go, coz you can have a hook-skip & you want to be able to handle a sing.eng. "bolter" safely. AFAIK Blue Water ops. Carrier-trap sing.eng, you'll be doing an straight-in app. It's an emergency, all emergency's are straight-in. The F-14B has the capacity & is certified to go-around & bolter sing.eng. under max carrier landing weight (54,000Ibs). You have lots of excess power left in sing.eng. Try it! you'll see why the Navy went for the 2 eng. F-14 :smilewink:. Also see this:https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3860049&postcount=2

Can we get a Jester menu command to display Time-to-Go for the Pilot?

We just want an "normal" axis that goes +/- & center is in in the middle. Think of Mig-29, F-15, Su-27 Radar Elevation or zoom axis . No auto center is necessary or "fancy stuff", since we can see the center on the Radar or TGP display. Right now the "Radar Elevation Antenna - in Axis controls" only works correctly if you have the TM FA-18c stick, that has the centering spring. On the real FA-18C that switch is on the front of throttle. But TM put it on the stick "the little wheel on the front of stick" this "wheel" is spring loaded, it goes back to center if you let go. So for us with normal axis/sliders that don't have the "spring snapping to center device" the "Radar Elevation Antenna - in Axis controls" doesn't work correctly. So just a normal axis please! Thank you for looking in to it :thumbup:.

Hi, Any news on the absolute axis for Radar Elevation Antenna? With the TGP it's used for "Zoom", but it's just not working as most of us have non-spring loaded rotarys/slider axis. Please look in to it!

With the introduction of TGP, the Radar Antena Elevation:- Zooms TGP in/out, doesn't work when bound to an rotary axes. Please ED can we have a normal non-spring loaded axis option?

Exactly :thumbup:. All you saying it's not Jester. So why couldn't he lock the bandit in STT (OP's video example) what was he doing wrong? Maybe I'm flying as a decoy & at some point I want the bandits to know I'm locking them. While my buddy's sneak up on them in silence from another direction & ambush them. Or maybe I just want to buddy-lock. And you can't select specific targets in TWS..... Also PAL is within 15nm.

How is the carrier-traping FM coming along? Right now hook-skipping isn't modeled & you can trap on crazy fast/slow AoA's. Compered to F-18, in the F-14 it's a child's play to catch a wire.

Have you considered voice recognition? In the other civilian sim it works very well & it's very realistic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5lxzFKsEpc.
