Indeed a great video!! Keep them comming. I am also subscribing to your channel for the DCS content. Buen trabajo :thumbup:

Take a look at this thread https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=168720

Thanks!! Most welcomed.

Not interested. The really marginal and almost anecdotic use of the one available in the Mig-21Bis by the community clearly shows there is not really much interest and feasibility in the use of such weapons in the DCS arena. The performance and framerate drop in most computers if such device is detonated in a large city or military buildup area in the actual DCS scenarios would make playability a real issue. There are a million of things I want to see implemented in DCS before such type of ordnance. And honnestly, lets not get confortable „playing“ with nukes. I am old enough to have been in the military during the last decade of the Cold War and I believe we should not get „too casual“ playing with nukes.

Really good Tutorial. A lot of work to put it all together and really well explained. :thumbup: Thanks a lot

I am indeed very much looking forward to this module. I will happily prepurchase it once it becomes available.

Uscstaylor, once again thanks for this mod, we have used it in our virtual squadron for an anphibious campaing.Since there were no AI aircraft on that campaing, all went real nice and it was really useful to have it. I would like to point out that the only thing that bothered us a little bit was the night lighting of the ship. I am sure you are aware of this already. I hope this is on the list of items the team would fix once ED fixes the AI on the ships. Thanks for the good work

I am not a fan of the Swatika or the Nazis neither of any other symbols of opressive and murdering regimes such the URSS or the Japanese Empire. However if I want to fly an historic German, Soviet or Japanese WWII aircraft the correct livery comes in the package because this is the part of "historic" side. If this really displeases you, please choose a ficitional livery any time. In the DCS simulator gamming arena such simbology has no political meaning, neither promotes ideology in any case. So I think it would be great if we keep "political correctness" out of a simulator and try not to accomodate it to the actually imposed political correctness. We already have enough of that in our regular life :cry: If someone does not like a Me-109 or a FW-190 with Swastikas, take a P-51 and shoot them down :D That would be historical :thumbup:

Would be great to have but I also believe with the actual engine used this would not work. Europe is some of the most densely populated areas on earth with an incredible ammount of infraestructures per square miles. Europe is small compared with other continents but you can hardly find any large unpopulated area with no infrastructures like we have in other maps in DCS. Just having in the same map cities like Paris, London, Berlin........ It is like having Las Vegas increased in size 10 times per city I think we all want as much more options in sceanrios ane terrains possible so the discussion is not about wanting or not but if this is actuallz possible with the actual engine. I would love DCS using an engine like Outerra. This really has the capability to handle the whole planet with an impressive level of detail. That is really a "World" I hope one day we will get something like this in DCS On the meantime I am enjoying much the new Caucasus, Nevada and the Persian Gulf :thumbup:

As a user I just wanted to say thanks to Sedenion. Your utility makes life easier and the management of mods very friendly user. It is people like you producing such tools that really contribute to the comunity. Most of my squaddies are usising OvGME. THANKS :thumbup:

I am not sure if that would be possible but snapviews are just pre-recorded camera possitions inside the cokcpit and you can call them back any time with a keyboard combination. Maybe the same „concept“ would be applicable to this. Obviously the carrier is not an aircraft and has no cockpit files so a workaround this should be found but I guess if the sim allows to record and save custom cameras inside the cockpit and call them at anytime using a key combianation, maybe something like this could be done for a carrier. Just a suggestion to consider

Great job!! Thanks. Beautiful angles :thumbup::thumbup: Thanks Would not be possible to access multiple cameras by a system similar to the saved snapviews?

I remeber hearing someone mentioning getting to this view through F4 but have not tried myself

ESA_Furia F/A-18C Thanks

The real issue here is that we are trying to outsmart the developers by trying to drive their company decisions with this type of approach. The first post says it quite clear, really unambiguos There is no question about how do you like us to use our resoruces? or would you prefer a Ju-52 over a O-2A? Should we give priority to this and that? No that was not the question. The question just ask if there is space in DCS World for such type of aircraft. The answer should be the same regardles there is an OV-1 or A-1 or F-100 already in release version or not. It is a simple question and you really have to be naive if you think you are going to force company decisions saying no to one model but offering your choice instead. For me the question is quite clear. Do I see future and possibilities in DCS world for such „type“ of aircraft? Yes I see a future for low and slow FAC aircraft of Vietnam War era. I do not want a DCS only with fighter bombers, I also want other types of aircraft and other type of missions available. Let the developers manage their resources, they know their stuff.

The role of the O-2A is not to engage armor directly with its weapons, neither is the UH-1H. In the Vietnam War the presence of an AFAC was most feared by the Vietcong. They know it carried no bombs, but a radio and some WP rockets, and if the AFAC sees you he will call his friends with tens of pounds of bombs in minutes. So yes, being in a T-55 and being detected by an O-2A means a sure death sentence. In DCS world we have used the Uh-1H as scouts/FAC with sucess, even sometimes we have used a P-51 to represent a A-1 and it worked quite well on this role.

Easy to fix, do not place that J11A on the Vietnam War era map. :music_whistling:

No need to google, been flying Cessna aircraft among other types since 26 years so they are quite familiar to me. This thread is about the twin engine, retractable gear O-2A, quite a difference airframe/performance from a C152. And yes this is a combat aircraft, used extensively during the Vietnam war. Just out of curiosity more than 500 units were produced for the Vietnam War. Like the Huey, an "utility" heliocpter that ended up logging more combat hours and earning more awards than most other "combat" aircraft Hey above all I would love to have an A1 Skyrider but that does not mean I have to vote against the O-2A The more aircraft related to the Vietnam war the better.

The nimble Cessna propeller driven aircrafts doing AFAC role in Vietnam (L19 and O-2A) saw more combat, flew more hours over enemy territory than many other jet units in theater. Take a look at the number of awards given to those pilots flying such very dangerous missions and then come back here and say this is just a 152 that has no room in a combat enviroment.:doh:

Tested and it works perfectly as usual. :thumbup: I am placing here a simple test mission. Jump on the Tactical Commander slot and see how despit having the scenario F10 to be configured as " Show only map", for the Tactical Commander you can see all your own units all the time and once the enemy units are located, You can see them as well as long as they are on detection range of any of your units. There are red units ahead of the Blue tanks, let them advance a litte and you will see the red units on your map as well shortly Test Fog of War.miz

Well I do not know how this works in 2.5 but I have made several missions with F10 options of just "Show Map" but and Tactical Commander had the information of own forces and "known enemy forces" available on his screen I would try it now. Maybe it has changed

The truth is that such polls are not really very useful. Poeple uses them just to voice their wishes or dreams about how the sim should be shaped. There are those that think that anything that is not a modern Mach 2 fighter is a „waste of resurces“ According to this line DCS World would not have helicopters, WWII aircraft, not Combined Arms ect Fortunately developers have a broader view about that something called „world“ is is not a catalog of 60 advanced fighters but a nice combination of different types of modesl with different performance, capabilities and even historically separated in time. That is I hope DCS World concept. There are some squadrond only dedicated to helicopters, others dedicated to WWII that would not agree that the developement is a „wate of resurces“ There are out there fascinating nimble aircraft that had more impact in aviation that so much vaunted high performance fighters. In the Vietnam war the „bird dog“ or the A-1 Skyrider aircraft had an awesome hitory and performance that makes the F-4 or F-100 pale. Maybe some of you do not know that, maybe some of you do not care about that because of course all of us want an F-4, me incliuded. What I do not want is a DCS World just full of the latest generation of fighters and nothing else to fly.

By saying no because 1000 guys want 1000 different models of aircraft we are not voicing the "comunity" whishes. Boicoting any aircraft that is not "your choice" would not make your choice more eligible. Imagine now the other 1000 guys with 1000 different wishes boicoting your aircraft just because it is not their selected model. Could happen. Can become a trend Imagine now a deloper asks about if the comunity wants an OV-10 and everybody in the DCS forums that is not in love with this aircraft feels the impulse to vote againts it just because this is not their dream model. So while you may get a good number of supporters the rest of the comunity voting against would not make it look good.
