thanks for responding. So you mean to say that ASELPOD has AtoA functionality and WMD7 (the DCS one) doesnt?
[The WMD7-ASELPOD differentiation wasn't specifically mentioned when this question was asked from the real guy]
No, i wanted to say that although the pilot might have told the truth, that does not necessarily mean that taking away that capability from the WMD7 might have been an error.
I dont know what the Aselpod is capable to do, but considering Pakistan and, i think, nigeria switching to them, there might be a reason.

Hi, as far as I know (checked today with a Jf17 pilot) pod does work in A2A in real life!!
afaik not every country uses the pod we have in dcs, pakistan for example replaced them with a turkish aselpod
-
Are we talking about rocket (-pods) or missiles now?

If it fires its engine one second after dropping
How should that work? Rockets are fired from a Pod using their own Engine power.

- IRST (infra-red search and track) from Block III
We dont have the Block 3 in DCS. We have Pakistani Block 1.
I was just mentioning things that were, at some point, slated to be added or said to be added but conditions apply, like the HMD.

I personally would not like to see it removed, just saying.
And i wouldnt want to miss the dual LD-10 Pylons either.
-
I have checked you track, for me the LD-10 did not self destruct. First one lofted and almost got to the target before the track ended, other ones ran out of energy and were about to do a belly landing when the track ends.
-
I’ve used the LD-10 successfully several times since the last patch. This sounds really weird. You got a track of it happening?

how do you compensate for the lack of datalink.
Focus on the Radar + TEWS. Put it on 80 Miles display, put the TDC on 40nm, Scan alternating from 0-20k feet and 18-whatever it was feet. Hope that this giant dish does something for you.

I was wondering if there's a sort of roadmap/to do list/features that will be added to this module
- Some fixes to be made to TGP and some A/G Weapons.
- They promised a Cruise / Performance / Range Page before it gets out of "Early Access"
- HMD if Pakistan adds it to their Block 1 Jeffs.
Other than that, its feature complete.

I suggest we leave this topic alone for now if there is nothing to contribute to it. Other issues/feature requests you can report in Bugs session or as separate topics.
Of course there would be something to contribute for it. Like - an answer to the request if the promised feature will happen or not. And when. That’s the main issue here. No meaningful communication at all.

why not finish the first module if the team is so small and there arent enough ressources for 2 modules? jeff is one of the most expensive modules without to much participation in sales.
why is "youll figure it out. gl hf" an acceptable approach to a manual / module?
F_16 and 18, F15 and apache, too are actively worked on. jeff just isnt. 2 years since the last addition of anything except liveries. so its either finished or abandoned except minor lua changes (and only if the cummunity delivers the solution. and even then noone bothers to check if the same fix is needed somewhere else). but well never know, because there is absolutely no community engagement except random comments without any info what to expect. yeah, its nice that uboats wants to check issues now, that persist since the initial spi logic "update".
2 minutes ago, okopanja said:I have a feeling that this topic goes outside of the intended context, still few of my observations both positive and negative on the state of JF-17.
there was an attempt for Deka last year to introduce the SD-10 with amraam API. It was an experiment that resulted in PL-12, which we currently use in some of the servers.
Clearly Deka is working on this and we can see that they are preparing to update the A-G bombs.
I assume this is still work in progress.
I as a newbie to JF-17 do enjoy it, and can actually thank to you for finally trying it out (I was very, very skeptical before), however there are bugs and I have the feeling that 2.9 changes might have disrupted many of the A-G weapons, e.g. glide bombs do have accuracy issues and non functional features. May I suggest you look at the list of active bugs for JF-17? (namely one related to glide bombs). Your experience would be very precious since you were there from the very beginning.
PL12 is just a lua hack to test SD10 with amraam scheme. nothing more.
they are doing nothing on any weapons. just waiting until they get all under EDs umbrella. thats it.

Shift of focus to the new J-8PP module ? As far I know only thing missing is the weather radar but they need to wait for ED to finish their clouds.
Why do you shift your focus to a new module if the "old" one is not finished? Especially if you tell people that the Module is considered "stable" by the devs?
FPAS Page is also missing. TPOD, SPI and AG Radar logic is broken. There is no english manual from Deka, without chuck and web translations the Jeff wouldnt be usable for non-chinese speakers. The last time something added to the "early access" jeff was almost 2 years ago some new weapons. And if you ask if promised features are still planned at all - you dont even get an answer. Honestly - how should one defend that? Its not okay.
-
Why did they stop working on it except some bugfixing here and there? They consider the Jeff "stable". Means for me: Not EA anymore.

hello! is there any update on this? I'd love to know the range I can expect from my current fuel load
I dont think this will happen. Jeff is out of Early Access and no FPAS / Cruise Page.

I selected the B variant after the engine startup and they missed the lasing.
Did you load them yourself or in ME? Which Lasercode did you use? Its broken atm. Despite its showing 1511 in Kneeboard and the same in the Laser Code Set pop up, its actually 1688.

I might cry a little bit when we finally get the litening

Hmm. I've seen developers answer on this forum, but I guess not. There's also a general question I put in there
Yeah, but nothing since roughly 2 years. (Or I somehow missed it, which would make me very sorry for spreading misinformation) Latest tidbit of information was in the Nick Grey Interview for the Virtual Airshow 2023. There he said that they are having some issues but the module is still being worked on.

Thank you for the Info!
Ill take from that, yes, Hotfixes out of the usual Patch-Schedule are possible to happen in general.

Wie gut kann man die F15 als Single Player fliegen? Da gibt es ja diesen KI Copiloten, funktioniert das gut mit dem, kann man auch komplett Solo in der F15 fliegen?
Die F-15 hat keinen KI Piloten oder WSO.
Ja, man kann komplett solo fliegen. Was die Zieldesignierung und so angeht, hat der WSO nur ein paar kleine Funktionen auf die der Pilot keinen direkten zugriff hat. (TGP Contrast und Helligkeit, eine weiter Zoomstufe im AG Radar etc.) Aber du kannst Problemlos auf den WSO sitz hüpfen und dort entsprechend Knöppe drücken, während das Flugzeug im Autopilot ist.
Allerdings kann man das Flugzeug auch vom Rücksitz aus steuern (Oder faul sein und dem autopiloten im Kurs-folge modus einfach mitgeben welchen kurs man denn jetzt gern fliegen würde.)
2 hours ago, Oellness said:Gilt das gleiche auch für die F14?
Die Tomcat in der Tat eine KI auf dem Rücksitz / Pilotenplatz die Dinge tun kann. Ist also ohne menschlichen WSO nutzbar. Aber mehr kann ich dir dazu nicht sagen. Hab das Modul nicht.

Can you please try the mission from @sylkhan?
I try to do that later.
Ah, another thing:
18 hours ago, Napillo said:The profiles are there for that first page on the sms, not the 'cntl' of the bomb itself.
If you check my track, youll notive that the CNTL Page setup is also Program dependent. Didnt realize that before either (Thats why i was starting to set up 2 Programs initially but ended up just using one for all of the 4 Targets / pylons / Weapons. Youll never stop learning
)
-
Ive also run a little test.
Setup: Singleplayer, Current OB, Used the PP Points Marker on F10 MAP. CEP Was maybe 3m, so looks perfectly reasonable. mind you, i was to lazy to also test GB6 or the smaller LS6
User 1 Weapon Program for the 4 Targets.

The little ones are a bit wonky anyway. I`d just laser them in and dont rely on GPS Guidance.

No one knows if we will get stuff like this. There hasnt been an update from or communication with the Devs in Ages.

How to drop new JDAMS
in F-15E
Posted
Only thing i can think of in addition to that; You have a Weapons Program set with those JDAMs in it?
