Tactical Engagement Mission Editor Pre-flight Briefing and Planning Pre-flight Mission Briefing and Planning The way it works in real life is like this............... Single-Player So for correct mission planning it should be done in the Tactical Engagement Mission Editor and use other screens and menus in game to plot the mission way-points with mouse clicks and adjust them accordingly to F.L.O.T / CAP/ LZ and Threat areas including the necessary ammunition for targets covered in intel reports and the fuel requirements in stored tanks or ordering in a Fuel Tanker for safe return and loitering time on station or extending time on station if necessary. There are other sims that devs could learn from and develop better solutions and improved user friendly GUI format. A realistic and detailed system in game is needed for sure a missing feature as a sim. Multi-player Similar to above using the the actual mission created but you can discuss matters as a squadron online via Teamspeak for example. The cockpit CDU or systems are mainly for corrections or deviations not intended for actual Pre-flight Mission Planning requirements. So there is a lot missing in the game but that's it in a nut shell! :thumbup:

IDEAS TO BUILD A BETTER COMMUNITY AND FORUM! Thanks m8, :thumbup: I will look into all this later. Here is a screenshot to help others........... It should also be linked to the user profile as you check PM and setting etc Yeah, well I have seen better implementation of community member status or standing Forum features in many other video game Forums that I visit. With other good Forum features that would and make for more fun and happier atmosphere here at ED-DCS Forum. I have had some nice gents um *cough* try to impress me with their egos and foul attitude of disinclination towards me as well. Pfft, like their rear waste don't stink, LoL :doh:.............especially after I go around checking their posts with poor reply posting and behaviors in practice. "What goes around comes around"....... is the saying isn't it. LoL I have seen it all, thats why it doesn't work. Sorry guys I just don't think it works at all in an adult or mixed age group Forum in social media relationship types or just Forums in general. It gets twisted and it is inappropriate use lacking in decorum and respect. So who cares for some smart ass with a high and mighty view of himself and an the attitude (emotional intelligence) of a 10 year old playing immature games with people online that really have only served to hurt the community at large and now shattered for many reasons. "Live and Let Live".......... is another great saying! We are here because we like the game and share that as a common interest as a primary focus to consider. I also posted here some thoughts and would like to share more as well..... https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3130379&postcount=113 Not forgetting this thread as it might help also Please read the entire thread guys ........... https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=186327 Thanks again. Cheers, :beer:

Bumpy ride in bad weather?! Interesting................. I heard that low level mountainous flying in small remote airbases is more dangerous due to low level sheer and cross winds creating turbulence affects through the valley's. Like in this video........

Yeah, glad I found this thread just by fluke. A few weeks ago I had some guys give me reputation points. Thx BTW gents, really appreciated can be tough on Forums, pheew LoL Personally, I never fuss over this stuff as I just approach the Forum like a good 1 on 1 chat over many topics. Some may perceive me as someone who is rule breaking, but thats because they just don't know me I'm not a mean ugly monster LoL So when a few guys rep'd me I didn't know how to get back in after I had closed the screen and read the comments or discuss the reps. I was reading and posting in two threads at the time having two Firefox Tabs open LoL. So as I now don't know who they are to PM them for a nice chat like I do, has proven difficult. I had a play around with my profile cant seem to find anything. I wanted to properly read what they said and rep them back if possible, so how do I do this now ? Also really whats the point of this, it gets a bit silly if you ask me, without naming the person there is a moderator here who has all red reputation. I have seen or read so many threads lately as well where there is great info or feedback given by members but the actual member has all red rep, thats unfair I think from my point of view anyway. I personally think its not needed can be used as a form to hurt with malice like here have a negative rep, like its really going to hurt people in actual life its just an emotional tug at the person to start a fight. As a suggestion for something better, I think in future a nice reward system like member of the month as better alternative. Or various types of badges earned like for example - "Wish-list Supporter" or "New Member Greeter" and many others. Something more humane and with some care factor for overall community registered in Forum as a whole not groups. Well thats just how I see it and believe it needs to be revised. Please help if any at all to check my rep stuff or whatever its called. Thxs

Have you read this thread and watched the videos I have attached? I think you a haven’t and then misunderstood whats being said here. The video above is good for a 6min video and suits the intent and purpose of the creators view to illustrate what is counter-steering. The brief discussion and illustration on the elements of physics are just keyed points to drive the message he demonstrates right at the start of the video as proof to his analogy. Why I chose this video just so you can see how it all fits, towards the end @4.44 the conclusion he again demonstrates his views and case for the created video. He shows and makes the case for setting things up properly in a practical approach with the correct knowledge proving that incorrect or lack of skill and awareness will lead to error. In this case adding to much speed and not allowing momentum to drive the bike under centrifugal forces. In MotoGP racing you enter the curve having already applied heavy braking before coming to and through the apex and as you pass it, only then you apply acceleration. The tighter you are in the corner at slower speed the faster you are in the corner and coming out. Watch online Casey Stoner and Valentino Rossi do this frequently as they counter each other’s overtake pass. Speed works against you in this instance you as you will go wide and lose your place in the race. Now if this is done on busy mountainous road conditions you would have hit an oncoming car or over the cliff being the worst case scenario, possible death. As another example watch this video………… You do know who the speaker is right, a 5 times world champ, giving tips for free to save rider lives. Hint:- http://www.motogp.com/en/riders/Mick+Doohan ...... and...... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mick_Doohan Also watch the movie "THE FASTEST" - As for your advice on "Keith Code" and much appreciated it is, look at page 5 post 50 never mind here it is............. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3131257&postcount=50 What I have illustrated is very much the practice of many elements of counter-steering in one effort, but not forgetting that those 3 different elements are skills individually learn't (lessons) and should have been tested before acquiring your license to meet the necessary safety conditions you will be challenged with in reality. You may rebut this if you like but I'm an instructor M8 I have had to learn all this myself and perfect it as best as I could to teach others what I have learn't and was passed down. Sure, I am rusty now and need a refresher because I last road a bike in 2005 ish. My heart goes to riders and to save souls and just a nice chat in Forum its not ego just enjoying the chat. Cheers....... :beer:

+1 :thumbup: Its critical to have these features as a combat sim to plan before flight and in flight corrections as alternatives. In any mission created in Briefing Room as Tactical Engagements created in the Mission Builder for SP or MP allowing for possibilities change predefined plans and conditions. So to be able to set your way-points and or adjust them adding or calling in to nearest tanker for example or combine joint operations that are within range near the bulls eye area. I'm thinking.......... Air Tasking Orders Order of Battle Flight Plan making and adjusting Load-out stores/ weapons available Mission Conditions Asset's airborne and load-out weaponry Link 16 to other packages networking or sharing tasking duties All by which affects the pre-flight briefing and actual mission contingency planning allowing way-points to provide some dynamic situations when in state of flux, as you are going to need to think fast and have options, hence changing way-points. So yep needed and would be great for multi-platform aircraft in squadrons as DCS WORLD Sim grows with larger maps and more aircraft modules. Just more in-depth and choices. :smilewink: :thumbup: Especially successfully completing the mission and RTB safely. If this makes any sense at all.

I support the wishes of the many for a great sim Yeah, i did download will eventually play around with it thx :thumbup: But one day hoping for a full Dynamic weather engine implementation for DCS like other sims. I found another cool video considering DCS F-18C module............. How stressful and entertaining will that be to do from your chair safe i might add LoL Also this one is kool..................

Sadly, yeah most guys either get poor training at licensing testing or ignore everything they learnt. Thats why I'm posting all this. The first reactions are to panic, then squeeze on front bakes rather than have intent knowing "HARM". Watch the video I linked much earlier in thread and all the info running down the thread. People die, or are seriously injured for life because they are not trained or skilled. It is sad and costly to some nice bikes as well. These are thing's that you can do on a Sunday arvo at a car parking lot using cones and someone with a stop-watch timing you and recording a video or just use today's tech, GoPro. The three types of counter-steering:- Cornering Maneuvering Defensive/Swerving These three types apply different techniques incorporating body posture, braking, throttle control, gearing up or down, steering, head checks and hand eye coordination. For example......... Cornering - is not braking through the apex where in maneuvering you might have to brake off to the side and in defensive maneuvering you are swerving through or a combination of above. So for the purpose of developing those skill sets you separate them and create scenarios that concentrate on each task of counter-steering skills to practice until perfect and then and only then can you combine these elements as a complete lesson on advanced rider tactics. By adding multiple tasks at once to perform as a obstacle course to pass on. If that makes any sense at all in the way I have explained it. Visit post 30# here - https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3124368&postcount=30 Watch the videos in that thread they are life saving!:thumbup: This video is well made explaining things that I am covering......... Congrats, its a top notch bike to own the Panigale 1199 (and the 1299) is impressive take care of it and yourself of course. :thumbup:

No, "Increase reaction times = reflexes (speed)" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_control Increase in-reaction times comes with practice much like in martial arts in sparring sessions you learn to read shoulder and hip movements before they even strike some look at the elbow instead of shoulder regardless its the knowledge and awareness with speed that increases the reaction times in routine practice. It takes time and mental awareness in the pressure bubble you are in to produce the outcome desired. "Sensory Evaluation and Self Assessment Training" - in other words how your mind speaks to your muscles so forth and analyzing for corrective measure. You certainly don't want to be slower at swerving or counter-steering a motorbike. :cry: I have had to study all this, things like emotional states of rider behaviors is another topic worth looking into if you love riding, it will save your life! :thumbup: Some nice reading if you are interested:- http://www.riding4right.org/uploads/Psychology_Disciplines_and_Motorcycle_Riding.pdf http://www2.rikkyo.ac.jp/web/hagalab/natuyasumi/AAP_speeding%20for%20fun.pdf :book::thumbup:

While that maybe true that experimenting more with the powerful "Mission Editor" that ED-DCS dev team created long ago might be underused. It is not the same as a full fledged separate program that offers Dynamic Weather situations and real-time downloadable weather meta data from online sources. This would be awesome to have where you fly a 4hr mission and on the way back you are challenged by sea storms heading back to carrier or strong front winds making it harder to fly. Also adding condensation and strong winds in between cloud layers and low pressure turbulence at low level flight as you are flying night low ops missions so the ideas here are endless for future potential and DCS World MAP hopefully. There are some very impressive Dynamic and Real Weather Engines already providing some great effects and realism for immersion and desired flight time experiences here is one example............. YouTube Comments:- Its why I posted here as well...... https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3127572&postcount=36 ..........to draw more interest. There are heaps of online pages on this topic to broaden the discussion further and would make DCS sim more sim and deep into what is aviation. Sure its not going to happen tomorrow but it is needed. :smilewink: :thumbup:

"FAIR USE" - COMMUNITY BASED FORUM DISCUSSION EDITOR TOOLS USAGE Hello gents, I made inquiries into all this a few years ago after some post message discussions and what was explained to me by Copy Right Legal representatives is as follows below. I had this posted in 3 other Forums in similar form, as well that I visit. So after a few phone calls and the provided online links and information given to me this is what I have summed up, that its allowed. Although to add nations like China for example have strict laws and filter out much of what is allowed and not allowed online as an example, but to stress, they do the censoring as a governing body not other private entities or bodies or groups of people. So I hope that helps in some way as I have covered some ground to explain how the use of Pics, Videos and PDF Docs is allowed under those conditions. But always read the fine print and conditions to be sure and search your countries laws for doing so. I am an Australian living in a democratic society where freedom of information is allowed under law and constitutional rights as a citizen. Regards

I support DCS AS FULL SIM WITH ATC SP + MP Function! Thanks for compliment, yes pushing the boundaries for both on "TRACON and RAPCOM" and other technologies for "DCS-WORLD" sim. Now considering that the entire sim community would want Military, Commercial, Civil, Recreational, Sport with true realistic ATC systems in place for DCS WORLD in SP + MP environments. As an entire spread to capture all that ED-DCS WORLD could offer. I am referring to these Community Threads:- https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=156334&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=144722&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=168630&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=134677&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=137576&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=89579&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=98899&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=129049&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=106029&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=99729&highlight=Civil+simulation+DCS https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=187054 .............. and many more Forum Threads.

In a full World MAP development completing and complimenting DCS-WORLD development possibilities for things like:- NATO Ops Logistics Escort Missions Peace Keeping Surveillance Ops Border Protection ......etc.......... Yeah sure some will point out the obvious so I know it wont be for tomorrow but a WIP is fine for me. :smilewink: :thumbup:

Nice gents ^^:thumbup: @BeastyBaiter, nice looking bike and great riding position its also good for off road conditions, it is a good buy, M8.:thumbup: Motorcycle Counter-steering -"Defensive Swerve" or "Defensive Counter-steering" Now this technique has saved my life several times. Once I recall was when a Nissan Patrol hit the brakes unexpectedly then indicates last second begins to turn to the right as we are both on the left hand on a FWY. I had just pulled into the left lane before this happened. I had time to brake but on a FWY I'm checking my rear and there was traffic behind. Technique - Check Spatial Arrangement Push-Right clear the threat then Push-Left level up on far right side of right lane, check spatial arrangement then wave the idiot! :doh: LoL This is done in seconds no time for if or maybe just needs to get done. I will try to find a better video on this but watch.......... Now his done it to avoid a pot hole not so much a car there would be more lean shifting of the bike and body to the right and straightening up but you get the concept of the swerve which is life saving to get that down pat. Just another video I found but not exact............ These two Gif's illustrate the exact reaction in defensive maneuvering........... Practicing this will increase your reaction times and awareness (Combat S.A.) :megalol: Back in the day we use to use ground lights in the center and with cable remote we would click left or right and you would be marked on reaction and head checks, speed, distance and posture as your are traveling down a coned pathway. Its intense but thrilling to watch and do.

Yes, the community needs a video because front page video states its a WIP does not actually show areas of training grounds and target objects or terrain improvements, airbases shown at night with lights and other detail, things that matter as an aviation combat sim. But enough has been said already on this in other threads. Keen to see at least a 20minute video capturing what it does offer and some info on how new code technology has made this map worth getting. And future possibilities to expand and add to this MAP. So Please correct front page and release a video this weekend.

"ROSSI vs STONER" Also its not the bike as much its the rider's will to win. :smilewink: Will always respect Casey Stoner he did it in just, such a short time! :thumbup: I also think sometimes he did the right thing left because all the internal nonsense say no more. :cry:

I know what you meant and why :smilewink: I think some gents just think realistically considering how long they have been around thinking that DCS as is today is the case and what we want may never be, and rather just enjoy more aircraft modules. Many here know the sim is old and has an old code-base being rebuilt from an old C/C++ with a combination of LUA master source code to C++ with benefits. As per.................. To some extent it holds some truth we may never see DCS to its full potential its allot of work and economy may get worse WWIII may burst out who knows. It's why I asked for this:- https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=186909 Take into consideration some gents are in their 60-70 and see it from that angle. Others are more hopeful and want a dream sim............. ATC Module Weather Engine Module MAP Theater List Aircraft Modules Ships Modules etc....... bla, bal, bla. As for slaps mate I've had serious beatings in Forums like....... :chair: ...... so a slap is like saying, I like you be quite........:megalol: So don't fuss m8 time will tell at the moment its all about 1.5 to 2.5 transition aka "THE MERGE" then will see if we get more goodies just have to wait and dream.................

Track days are great competition events fun for in 1 vs 1 or even groups.:thumbup: I love Rossi No:46 The DOCTOR..... Especially in the duels against Casey Stoner No: 27 WIZ KID another great champ. I was sad when he quite damn he was fast and gave Rossie hassles. Anyway watch this nice video of MotoGP .....powerslides and drifting...................... Casey Stoner a must watch......... Far out that is awesome :thumbup:

LoL Mike we are all saying the same...... but you got the wrong end of the stick on the conversation thinking we don't want those effects of realism. :doh: the limitations of having a good conversation on the internet :doh::lol: So my point on a weather engine is no different to your desires I'm just considering the programmers view how he has to formulate computations and algorithms to ensure that we get those features like Buffet or Turbulence etc Thats why I posted here.... https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3127572&postcount=36 ..... with a link to a good PDF. ED Programmers would have a good source of their own anyway this is just Forum chatter amongst ourselves. So no one will say to you F............. as your suggestions, desires point of you is/are well desired by many. Also the fun that it adds when creating missions and what a sim it would make if we had something like a fully fledged weather engine later on. Thats the point later on but he lays a conundrum that a developer will have to make compromises that best suits the code-base and GFX engine capability to make those effect possible at least to the eye. So time will tell. As for threads I read everything in Forum takes ages though and there should be proper stickies for things like............. ATC Module Weather Engine Module MAP Theater List Aircraft Modules Ships Modules Where all info is gathered in one place but thats not the case and I dont run the Forum but thats the way i would do it. And as people we will just post over and over what we want in a flight sim air combat game. As for flight time well thats hard when you want things that are still in development and find it hard to commit some dont want whats currently available that all personal preference some love WWII I lover modern stuff. So its all about "THE MERGE" for many in the sim community and when that F-18C is cleared to go m8 its going to ramp up big time.:smilewink::thumbup: I feel like i was having a chat with someone you walk up slap me i go down like whut and you yell and I cry saying but what did i do wrong LoL

+1 Needed feature I gather you will see this after "THE MERGE" with better improved visual particle & lighting effects from new GFX engine.
