I imagine these things will all come in time, Nevada is being worked on, and as far as I know the 3rd party license agreement isn't limited to aircraft, so who knows what things could come out in the future. For all you know the next 3rd party DCS project could be a T80 tank and a Antarctic theater =P -

Every single one of these aircraft are being worked on by different teams, so the amount of aircraft should not effect quality. Also I've been informed that we are to expect all of these aircraft to be up to DCS quality. -

I just put it there so people could get an idea of what the cockpit would look somewhat like, I tried to have an external and cockpit shot for every plane, I know its not from the actual cortex model, I'll replace the photo with the actual cortex model when they release screenies of it :thumbup: -

So I'm rather dissapointed... even though I'm covered by warranty but regardless I JUST got my TM Warthog in yesterday and the past 24 hours has been a flurry of simulator joy However that all came screeching to a halt when 4 hours ago my joystick quit working I was flying the KA50, I went into the theater map, and when I came back, I couldn't bank I couldn't pitch, couldn't use any of the hats, the throttle was fine, but the stick was non-functional I've called the TM support staff, and they walked me through a few things to no avail Its likely a firmware failure or something... and I'm going to have to send it in But before I do... I was hoping maybe someone... ANYONE could have another solution I hope this isn't a common problem, but if anyone else has had this happen I'd like to know Thanks so much
-
I think that's kinda normal, the stick is on a SUPER sensitive magnetic tracking system (or something haha idk) so I would find it hard to believe that you could move the stick perfectly along either axis without slightly moving the other. And also I JUST got my TM Hotas Warthog yesterday ;D so if anyone were to help you it'd be me haha, I tested mine and it did the same thing, so I think you're fine

Flaming Cliff 2 HOTAS References
Bluedrake42 replied to Bluedrake42's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
OH sweet thanks so much Yeah I really really want DCS to come out with a jet fighter already haha -
lol idk if you've played warthog before but this is normal xD You're going to laugh at yourself. The A10C default weapon loadout is uneven from wing to wing the TGP on the right wing is HELLA heavy, which means the aircraft will bank slightly to the right To correct this problem just trim your aircraft to compensate for the drift There's no problem with your hardware, its just that the game is SUPER realistic haha Its simulating wing loadout drag and weight Edit: You'll also notice this on takoff btw, with a normal loadout with the TGP on the right your plane will drift You have to make sure you work the pedals to keep yourself on the runway ;D
-
I would like to setup my joystick to be as close to real life as humanly possible But unfortunately I can barely find any references for the flaming cliff 2 plane HOTAS controls Does anyone have pictures and diagrams for the HOTAS controls for all the FC2 planes?

Obviously I'm a big fan of Eagle Dynamics... and to pass the time between lab walks at work I like to check out the Eagle Dynamic Forums. I was about to check out the forums when my supervisor came up to check on things. Immediately beforehand I had searched "ED forums" in Google... when he came up he looked at my computer, gave me a funny look and then left. Afterwards I looked at the Google search results... the first was "Eagle Dynamic forums"... and every single other result on the page was for "Erectile Dysfunction". *facepalm* :doh:

Clarifying what is needed to run FC 3
Bluedrake42 replied to Bluedrake42's topic in Lock On: Flaming Cliffs 1 & 2
oh... that's dumb... why don't they just call it something else? -
Its 40 bucks... like seriously come on wtf. Just make it a freaking standalone. Black Shark 2 was problematic enough and split the community Stop doing this.
-
Been noticing a trend in DCS World AI At random points some of the AI aircraft (so far the A10 and F16) just ditch all their weapons and dive straight into the ground... its weird. It looks like they're trying to execute some kind of evasive maneuver but they must forget how close they are to the ground
-
Whenever MLRS launchers fire my game turns into a slide show Its pretty lame...
-
that could maybe be accomplished by a hydraulic lift on the base of the whole platform However I was thinking maybe a kindof force feedback that makes the cockpit shake instead?It really just depends on what feels the most realistic And yeah like I said haha I'll be lucky to build this thing for under 20 grand However I'll probably do it in parts, where I build the motion platform first then the cockpit second, and I can use a single monitor in the front until I find a convincing and cost effective solution to the video sphere haha
-
I thought about that, but you see by having the screen slightly outside the cockpit you gain a slight "3D" effect, where what you're looking at literally appears to be outside your aircraft. (think about looking out the side of your window and being able to see your engines and wings) adding to immersion. If the actual canopy of the cockpit was used as a screen then it would negate that effect
-
Haha oh I'm completely aware of the costs I'll be lucky to make this for under 20,000 And no the ENTIRE sphere wouldn't be wrapped, only the parts that the pilot would see so the only part that wouldn't be wrapped would be the part where the cockpit sits in the sphere but yeah I'm completely aware how ambitious this is haha but also yes I have the facilities and funding to make this a reality and I'll be damned if I don't create this when I have the capability haha
-
Been doing a lot of thinking about it... and I firmly believe this is possible. This may take me a decade to accomplish, maybe even a few years to even start on. But its gonna happen... to that I solemnly swear. I intend to make a sphere based motion platform with full XYZ axis rotation. The inside of this sphere will be coated with a flexible OLED screen creating a complete panorama around the pilot, resulting in absolute immersion. Within the sphere will also sit a fully functional simulator cockpit, in which the pilot would reside. An example of how the motion platform system would function A different version of the motion platform, however an existing and physical prototype To-date complete video panoramas have only been possible with expensive projector systems, and even these systems have their problems, they often are big and bulky, and usually not well suited for smaller simpit projects. However in the future OLED technology could change all that Paper thin screens offer the most lively image and color. Also OLED screens are virtually indestructible to boot. They can be flexed to coat any reasonably even surface (well suited for the inside of a sphere) Here is an example of flexible OLED technology While expensive and small at the moment, the market predicts affordable widescreen models will be available within the next decade In comparison to the previous two tasks (building the panorama and motion platform) it should prove relatively easy to construct a reasonably light, and authentic simpit to sit inside the sphere. I also intend to make the cockpit modular, so systems inside can easily be replaced or swapped out in case of system failures, or maybe just to adjust to a different aircraft. In order to reduce strain and weight on the motion platform, the video feed from the OLED screen, control systems, and HUD/MFD systems will be wirelessly transmitted from the cockpit to the computer (which would be separate from the platform). Overall this will also make constructing the platform easier. This is something I'm really passionate about completing. My father and I build planes as a hobby, although I'm more of a simulator nut than he is (particularly for combat simulators) I feel we are completely capable of making this a reality. I would love to hear feedback and ideas on how we could best go about this, and maybe some of your own ambitions for what you would want out of such a system. To finish here are some more examples of motion platforms I've found. Although nothing like what I've proposed has been built for civilian use (there is one military simulator that goes above and beyond what I'm proposing ) these are some examples of what has already been done (although they only have two axis, instead of three; roll and pitch instead of roll, pitch, and yaw) Thanks for reading!! And please tell me everything you think!! I've made some amazing discoveries through the feedback of people on these forums
