Hi All, I've recently started to build a non-VR cockpit as I think the idea of using TM MFDs on top of small panels to mimic cockpit instruments 'in real life' is pretty awesome. I've been able to export the F18's DDIs with relative ease but am curious to know if we'll be able to export the F16's CMFDs right from the get-go/upon early access release or we'll have to wait a while like we did with the F18? Cheers

So the question is, why would anyone DDM rather than DMS? This is even more the case when waypoint designating targets rather than using the UFC for coord input

Is there currently a bug with the LGBs when using the TGP? I've tried a few times just now and only 1 out of about 5 LGBs hit their intended target, all the rest just over shot! Anyone experiencing the same?

Interesting, I’ve always been curious about pulling the trigger on one of his seats. How much does the seat add to immersion?

Ahh that makes a lot of sense, thanks! Do you know if we’ll be getting a TTI notification for JDAMs at all?

Hi All, Pretty straightforward question, I noticed that a few LGBs I dropped yesterday during a late night sortie were only hitting their mark when I fired the laser from the TGP after pickling/release. I noticed if I’d fired the laser prior to pickle/release, the LGBs would just fall to the ground and miss the target Is this intense behaviour or am I missing something? Cheers

It should loose track as the TPOD has no idea in which direction or where the target was being tracked is moving. I believe the targeting pod will focus back on the last known coordinates of where the target was before site was lost once the aircraft has come around

What about laser latching?

Does anyone know if the TGP latching feature works now? Ie I don’t have to keep the trigger pressed to fire the laser?

That’s awesome and exactly what I’m trying to do. Any idea which files I have to modify?

Hi All, I’ve just purchased a second set of Thrustmaster MFDs and I’d like to do what it seems like a lot of other people have: export the left and right DDIs of the F18 to a small 8” monitor that I’ve overlaid the MFDs on. I’ve browsed a few of the forum posts and people seem to make it a relatively easy task. Is all I have to do modify a few lines of a lua file and that’s it? Any help would be appreciated!

Sounds like maybe you’ve changed the default head position. This happened to me a little while back and had to clear/reset the default view lua file to fix it. Took me an age to figure out what went wrong. I must have changed the default view by button mashing when I had my headset on

They look great, how did you make them?

:thumbup: Even if this goes nowhere, thanks for being transparent! :)

I appreciate that. I think the main problem here is the disconnect between what people are seeing in their VR headset vs. what they should be experiencing/feeling; a bit of buffer is acceptable, indeed wanted, but to the point where the whole cockpit violently shakes is a little nauseating. I think this is even more the case as most PCs aren’t able to render above 40/45fps which means when the (relatively) low FPS is coupled with violent, fast and abrupt screen movements can cause discomfort

Just ordered this, super hyped for it now that we have the TPOD. Using the current TDC on the WH throttle is a horrible experience

Yea, I've noticed that also. not sure if its 'normal'?

So I’m just wondering also, if LGBs can hit moving targets, surely they have to be moving along a straight line? Essentially what I’m getting at is how far can a LGB ‘drift’/fly along a horizontal axis?

Interesting, I wonder if that why I’m not able to use PTRK to lock on a moving tank etc?

Hi All, Like a lot of us, I’m loving the introduction of the litening TPOD in yesterday’s OB. However, after spending an hour or so flying around, getting used to using the TPOD and just generally hurling ordinance at various ground targets, a few questions keep cropping up Which is more accurate, JDAM or LGBU? Why would one be employed over the other (I’m assuming environmental conditions play a factor here; ie JDAM in the case of overcast weather)? Cheers

Absolutely loving the pod, makes using JDAM so much easier, even LGBs However, is anyone else having any luck with the TPOD tracking a moving ground target? For the life of me I can’t get it to track a something simple like a moving tank. I thought Wags said point track (PTRK) was implemented? Maybe I’ve found a bug?

How did you get the pod to track a moving target? I can’t even get it to track a moving tank on the ground...

Well weirdly enough, I’m confused about dual vs quad channel. From most of the online sellers here in the UK, the kit I want, in the colour I want (Corsair DDR4 ~3600Mhz in white) only comes in a 16GB duel channel kit. I’ve seen quad channel kits but wil they work with a 9900k?

Even after DCS has been installed?
