  1. All of them they are all great pieces of engineering, they all have different functionality and a marvel to look at................ But to pick one I do like the LHD's for the RAAF F-35 pathway plans....... http://australianaviation.com.au/2014/05/johnston-raises-possibility-of-acquiring-f-35bs/ Take no notice of fake news LoL ............... and of course the CVN Nimtz Class the "BIG BOAT" - Rule by Power and Sheer Size - :thumbup:
  2. Any help with this post................ https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3129852&postcount=60
  3. First I just want to agree that this is all just good conversation not argument do we agree on that.:thumbup: Okay, so I sense you have a strong passion for Duc's so did I at one stage to be honest, and I only said that to help you from my point of view. If you weren’t happy with your current bike being a Duc. That’s what I understood reading your post, sorry if I misunderstood you there. So in my opinion now, I don’t see it that way because I owned 2 x VFR in my life so far and I fell in love with them they are that awesome in the many years I was riding and training and traveling with clubs. So I have a different opinion and passion especially for VFR’s read post 45 that was my beast specs with other bits and pieces the Performance Bike Shop guy I took it to did for me. On track days guys that had Duc’s couldn’t keep up with bikes that had some work done to them like my bike and neither could they overtake me easily if I knew they were there. So let me explain further, I guess you know anyway but to enjoy the discussion further the VFR is a V4 at 90 degree and pre 2001 were gear driven with DOHC multi-point 16V, now rumble that down the manifold and exhaust into two pipes it sounds deep and throaty like Duc’s now the new models are VTEC and have other game changing feature like TCS and more through the CDU chip so on. Watch this cool videos……… VFR 800 V4 Engine - VFR 800 Akapovic - VFR 800 REMUS - And VFR800 …….. Now tell me that’s not sweeeeeet, I loved hearing that never got old for me. Again I’m out of the bike scene nowadays so I have not caught up with all the progression but late 90’s early 2000’s many Duc owners reported electrics and other issues and weren’t happy I know this now because of then being around those guys who owned them. Of course Ducs have their place if you love them hey that’s what you like, some like Harleys I don’t like them either its all preference and “First Love” LoL shhh LoL If I ride a Duc now who knows might feel different. Huh I just remembered every year down here Melbourne Australia Ducati would hold a public free ride event to promote sales you have to sign an agreement and pay $50 I got to ride for 1Hr. That was good fun heaps of guys would line up and head out in a large group. I’m not lying you can ring them up they will tell you. I don’t think they do that anymore. That how I got to ride some kool Ducs as well and felt the ride. But I remain a passionate VFR lover forever honestly I think, they are that good and its history proves it. Links:- https://www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/news-and-views/features/bikes/history-honda-vfr http://motorcycles.honda.com.au/Sports_Touring/VFR800 Now again I do like Ducs, but waying up cost’s for what I can do with a VFR it just doesn’t compute for me. Again maybe I’m just biased and stupid here but that’s how I see it. ________________________ In other words ride with confidence and knowledge and trust the science of riding then you would have the understanding and skills to master cornering and evasive maneuvering this does not come easy but perfected through hours years of skill based riding. So many guys go and get there new Duc 916 or CBR 1000 and take corners brutally with poor understanding, because the eye is deceitful and its an acquired skill mastered not just done to impress your m8's and find yourself under the side rails on a mountain top sad but true, just ask the ambos or cops on your next run in.:cry:
  4. A huh, I see yeah spatial awareness much like sims the whole S.A. thing :lol: P.S to help others and encourage safety always wear Hi-VIS Motorcycle Gear - "CLICK HERE LINK"
  5. Being half Italian you would think right, I do like them dont get me wrong but my love is for VFR's :thumbup: with fully worked crank and forged pistons - http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/index.php?/forums/topic/33919-837cc-big-bore-kit/ and carbon fiber fairing with an Akrapovic twin exhaust https://www.akrapovic.com/ My old bike craped all over the standard Duc's after ECU was dino tested and tuned for max performance like this here - http://www.dimsport.it/en/tuning-line/unique/bike/honda/vfr-800-vtec/ Jap bikes rule and will always rule for decades, fact! But I dont ride like the idiots who smash into railings lol I use to ride up through Apollo Bay the Great Ocean road heaps and see guys under the side railings to fast using a race line on narrow winds. in tight turns like this................... Great Ocean Road - watch................ I was a member of 2 club rider and qualified weekend instructor M8:smilewink: I had to leave the scene in 2005 as kids came along. Thats why I'm here looking at you LoL I had lots m8's ride Ducs though still run into a few here and there but I had a RED VFR and all the gear and on track days they had trouble keeping up with me. Back then no go-pro or camera phones but I have an old VHS video recording, I dont know how to convert it and would show it that it aint no joke.:smilewink: Might ride again soon but there are other plans also as a family (Camper Van - http://www.jayco.com.au/range/caravans/ ) so who knows :dunno: If I do ride again defo get Gopro and post youtubes that would be fun to do and I feel I missed out on stuff, because GoPro is amazing we did have this late 90's sadly. Nowadays much more fun I wish I was younger again.

  7. MASHUPS Lose Yourself in the Hall of Fame (Eminem vs. The Script) Nelly vs. Bee Gees - Stayin Hot (lobsterdust mashup) Alice Cooper vs Earth, Wind & Fire (mashup by MadMixMustang) Me + Wife LoL
  8. FIXED - Here to help and be a good sport! :smilewink: Also +1 on the ideas All the more goodies add to sim making it more enjoyable! More peoples dreams are met the better for all lots of exciting work as well for devs / artist and our money flying out of our pockets and we become broke as, and I will be begging on the streets........... :megalol:
  9. Freedom............. ........... Yes Freedom! Salute to all the armed forces that provide it!
  10. I voted YES for sure why not lets do it now why the delay LoL :doh: A huh, Stuff it, just make a Global World Map and all this chatter about one area in the world is dealt with, in a fine artistic swoop I might add! :smilewink::megalol: Further to add for air craft I posted here......... https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3125391&postcount=7 All done we will never have to post again in Forum, mods can go on holidays......... hahaha Now I'm going to have a beer and relax......... :beer:
  11. LoL, thats nothing new check MIT journals experimental math as an example. Link:- http://libguides.mit.edu/c.php?g=176079&p=1159563 Also.............. http://blog.stephenwolfram.com/2017/03/two-hours-of-experimental-mathematics/ More here:-https://www.google.com.au/search?q=mit+youtube&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b&gfe_rd=cr&ei=sgEMWdMi79zzB93er9AI#q=experimental+mathematics+journal New formulas and proofs in regards to new discoveries so on, the boundaries of math are limitless. Its deep and get ready for long 1+hr YouTube seminars but good fun learning if you are keen :thumbup:
  12. Well thats not enjoyable for starters and its not reliable then on long rides. :cry: I would patch it up and sell it asap and get a "Honda or Yamaha" and you wont regret it, happy riding forever. Get something in the range of "Sport Touring" - http://motorcycles.honda.com.au/Sports_Touring :thumbup: http://www.yamaha-motor.com.au/products/motorcycle/road/sport-touring/all Its great for commuting, travel and general good road riding with good benefits in luggage carrying and rear passenger and center stand as well, they are sport performance in design and handling with adjustments and heaps of mods to customize for added performance or comfort. Also much better after support and easily accessible parts for servicing. Honestly Jap bikes rule and have ruled for decades :smilewink: Watch........... :thumbup:
  13. ^ Yeah, I am a member there also but I don't like the Forum setup there as much either, its like a shoe string of threads not as appealing or user friendly. However, I did like FF and FFOSP Forum format they were far better to chill and discuss the actual sim you're into or support and thats the point, "the community where you are at"! Again, point is change is needed its boring and to tense in DCS and some other places as well need more life and interaction with developers freedoms etc Its a "Global Community Forum", in the modern free world so to speak, enough said! Now if you were to tell me...... "Its just not the right time for this" ....... I could agree with you there, but to shoulder shrug and say go there, does not cut it with the entire sim world. I know that much through PM + email discussions, sadly. Many want to just have fun, relax and see good development, hence why its like this now.................... Sad really sad and its to boring and very tense. Maybe in future things will change, but I don't see why not now really its just a game in the end people are so naive on this "Sim or Game" I couldn't care less for the nonsensical debate that has existed in some individuals, get over your egos! :doh: I just don't agree with allot of things that are going on, but I say no more, it is what it is! Also people do what they like in their way of thinking anyway :doh:
  14. CHANGE IS GOOD WE NEED HEAPS OF CHANGE IN SIM WORLD +1, I agree :thumbup: Oh boy, yes, yes, I would love a modern theme, current is so old no disrespect but its not modern enough to look at. I would also add more to the Forum more Community functionality where people can meet and discuss many things as a "Global Forum Community", it is to restricted for a Global Forum, sadly.:cry: It needs to include other interests in a "OFF-TOPIC CHIT CHAT Section" like sports, careers, outings a little more freedom to mingle with people and Chit-Chat, "O'Club Style", if you like.:smilewink: :thumbup: Also a "Developer Corner" where developers can share stuff openly like a dedicated area for Development Road Map - https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=186909 Also a better thought out area for Community Modding and Tools for creativity and projects. Maps Skins Models Programs Software Apps Tools The way to grow communities is to make things fun interesting and creative and be more open to it. This genre of gaming needs to open up more and really accept change in a "Global Forum Atmosphere" that does mean adding more freedoms to express who you are what you like and enjoy the sim other games and real life. Yeah sure game/sim comparisons is rule breaking but share what you like isn’t. Also age group is important and growth potential as well. Many other game sites like EAGames FIFA I visit here:- http://fifaforums.easports.com/en/ Age group should be from 18 to 70 years of age. My idea of a DCS Forum and TABS would be something like this.........

  15. I personally don't like gaming Laptops but I do like this................... Link:- https://www.razerzone.com/project-valerie There are others similar and also a DIY Youtube if you dig around Nice :thumbup:
  16. DCS DREAM SIM.......... +1 I agree:thumbup: We could have if ED would ever agree to something more like levels of Aircraft implementation like:- Full Simulation working cockpits Semi-Simulation working cockpits Game Level working cockpits They could use something like this to get them to fly and behave like real aircraft:- http://jsbsim.sourceforge.net/ And as more info found on aircraft and Lic approved it could move up the ladder so to speak. Similar to other sims that are now fairly old, this would get ED-DCS World all the possible wanted aircraft by community into the data-base and we could all enjoy the sim allot more. As long as you can perform a basic start up basic functions of dropping a bomb and fire a missile and use guns, I see no problem whatsoever! I'm for change and openness to a complete world of aircraft some have different views of the sim or believe its not possible and so on. So I'm with you on creating more for DCS WORLD as a Combat Simulator even Commercial, Civil, Recreation and Sport Aviation.......hence WORLD. I also posted and worth looking into what I think here:- https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3125391&postcount=7 :smilewink: :thumbup: We are missing out on allot of fun though building a greater flight sim game community.
  17. Any suggestions glady appreciated, thanks in advance! Not exactly a pilot book but I'm looking to buy a really good comprehensive Military Aircraft Encyclopedia. Most use Wikipedia for this like I have done now for years but what I want now is in book form, any suggestions? I found this fairly cheap as well not sure how comprehensive/detailed it really is. The World Encyclopedia of Fighters and Bombers Link:- https://books.google.com.au/books/about/The_World_Encyclopedia_of_Fighters_and_B.html?id=Z5EbQgAACAAJ&source=kp_cover&redir_esc=yFor a fathers day or Birthday presy I hope, yeah once your over 40 and married you buy your own LoLAny suggestions would be gladly appreciated thxs :thumbup:
  18. LoL, why would ED even provide info to other OEM's in their change Logs or updates, you misunderstood the comment and read it incorrectly LoL Like I said earlier its been discussed to the bone already, forget it.:doh:
  19. Thanks that was awesome Sweet! The only thing that is missing is a surround view cockpit screen using projector's that one screen don't cut it for me but the actual mechanical 360 motion simulator with roll, pitch, yaw, horizontal and vertical heave and the rest is awesome, I agree! This one is kool........................ and........... Great project and team as well to be a part of lots of fun working there with those people. I want one now every weekend would be awesome and I would charge an 1hr fee for neighbors :megalol:
  20. LoL where is that in the change logs and which update as it was always said that the answer is NO! If this is true then the Forum Mods have earned a well deserved lashing for the error :bash: LoL
  21. WHY - always matters and counts as info on how the game design runs m8 as it will impact on your system settings and hardware capabilities hindering performances. Building a sim rig is more intense on resources and hardware than general gaming. In past discussions guys running single core + dualcore and now multicore and future who knows. Who had performance issues on their rigs due to CPU and MOBO features and configuration types. Thats why it all hurts when it costs, hence the "WHY" and people were looking for tech info on development hoping for CPU HT to spread the load over to CPU running i3 + i5 and the mighty i7's at higher costs. Again hence the "WHY". Its a huge discussion across video gamers not just a DCS thing ............. watch......... Links:- http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/354727-28-does-hyperthreading-gaming https://pcpartpicker.com/forums/topic/144503-how-long-before-games-use-hyperthreading https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/11/558752449870153316/ http://www.overclock.net/t/671977/hyperthreading-in-games Most games demand at least 4cores with HT that process allot of info thats WHY again. Most wanted HT over all cores and opinions are all over the place here and online. Again, what did I say we all needed........... But I know the answer is pretty much due to an old code-base design from 1991 that would require allot of work and the sim is already lagging behind in current state being Alpha + Beta products as nothing is finished or hardware optimized as a final release ........ Reference Link:- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_Dynamics Others weren't aware of the current state or cleverly looking for more info hence all the drama back then, now they see and are all but gone, sadly. Again an old argument - Found here using Forum Search Function:- https://forums.eagle.ru/search.php?searchid=15107715 ............plus deleted threads:cry: Its all so sad we have less and less and air combat sims are just a dying breed of gaming! For the benefit of all, its no point going further........So lets drop it, leave it there and let it go! :cry:
  22. Yeah, thats the main attraction with the VFR history and great for cornering its well balanced after years of refinements as well, as a past owner its awesome. Also Ducati's had bad rep for electrics where Honda VFR's had none in comparison! Link:- http://motorcycles.honda.com.au/Sports_Touring/VFR800 ............ or .......... http://powersports.honda.com/2015/interceptor.aspx :thumbup:
  23. Like I said cichlidfan, time will tell! In 10 years time new systems, new design architecture, standards ....etc The "All subject to change" clause if you wish, its just not the right time now. The sim is still stuck in transition ALPHA + BETA state its a long journey to see changes or how it will work in future. We dont have a guarantee if ED will be in-development in 10 years time the sad truth of the history of video games especially air combat stimulation.:megalol: Other games in market today use other technologies to improve performance and quality but again old discussions yeah.:cry::smilewink: Found here using Forum Search Function:- https://forums.eagle.ru/search.php?searchid=15107715 ............plus deleted threads:cry:
  24. I doubt its DCS Sim because old discussions state only dual-core only in future development. They take the opinion that GPU muti-core is the future I beg to differ and think both should be the case to have a balance between optimizing the hardware for best performance and utilization. Again, I would personally like to have a full explanation from a ED Lead Engineer Programmers point of view as to why, not just running Forum commentary. It should be explained and posted in a "Closed Thread" for referencing to understand the code-base framework and vision. Why because we need to know when we spend $$$$$ on gaming rigs for sims and gaming. But as also stated its not ED's policy to discuss these things which is also somewhat disappointing. So its just another Forum thread / hearsay where we just make all sort's of assumptions and observations. That have no basis of evidence given based on no info on what ED's master source-code is in current state of transition to mature code development or plans for hardware utilization standards. So only the future will tell? P.S - Its also why I posted this here...... https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=186909 ......... which would cover these areas of user interest, but sadly, well I try at least!
  25. There is a guy over at War Thunder he has a whole collection of various types and sizes near his PC. I cant remember his name but has good pics if you like this sorta stuff. I also believe War Thunder have a Tank at their HQ location if I'm correct.
