  1. Ci sono diversi indizi sparsi per il forum, specialmente sezione mod and apps sulle versioni... Attualmente però non possiamo annunciare nulla di ufficiale
  2. Ancora non abbiamo rilasciato il 339 e già le nostre armi sono disponibili per altri aerei... Non c'è di che
  3. On real MB-339s, it is possible to install the GARMIN GPS Map 495 for navigation support during transfer flights. It is installed on the Gunsight support and, due to this, the GPS Map 495 and the Gunsight cannot coexist onboard during the same flight. DCS World reproduces the NS430 Navigation System that, although it is not equal to the GPS Map 495, it could be a good compromise. As the implementation of this module on the MB-339 would be a fictional feature, it could be useful for simmers that are unfamiliar with traditional navigation systems but they want to make long navigation flights. What do you think about it? Please express your point of view on this pool. As poof of the incompatibility of the "portable" navigation system and the gunsight, I attached below a pictures of the Garmin support on a MB-339A of Al Fursan aerobatic team. Best regards, Duke NOTE: the NS430 already works on MB-339 for their owners as overlay window, the 3D model inside the cockpit would give you more immersion.

    F-104?

    We already started to work on this aircraft. Only for you, a preview of our w.i.p. 3D model. [emoji14] I'm joking, a F104 would be awesome but we will talk later about the possibility to have a official module. We already have a defined roadmap agreed with ED but at the same time we want to announce only projects we are sure to complete. :)
  5. As promised a couple of weeks ago, here is a .pdf file an in-depth technical update on our MB-339 for DCS. This time the focus is on the damage model, its effects and how it correlates to failures and systems operation. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-HoZmKcdsm2zydUrUEOBHEBn_3XpVyep/view?usp=sharing On a more general note, we are very happy about the quality and the level of detail we have reached with this project. Unfortunately, we have been experiencing some delays with respect to our original schedule and, at the moment, we have not a release date we can share with you. One of our main targets is not to deliver an half-baked product - so, as usual, "it is done when it is done" - we'll keep you posted!
  6. There is a very nice mod available from today by VNAO
  7. A dire il vero sono uno dei pochi che lo ha già in anteprima u.u
  8. Il 339 non è più compatibile con la 2.7 in quanto il supporto è terminato da più di un anno. È una mod destinata a morire
  9. Glad to see this! Congratulazions guys! :)
  10. It is not so easy for our skin as the numeration is a little different that the USA ones. We can add for example a decal so with a little tga the user is able to create sveral liveries without spent a lot of resources.
  11. We are working hard on the DCS MB-339... but with the new cloud system implemented in DCS 2.7 it is difficult not to stop and take some screenshots... so here they are. This new cloud system of DCS World by Eagle Dynamics is really a big step forward in terms of visual fidelity for the platform, and we could not be happier about it. We are also working with ED to integrate new weapons into the platform, so that the 339 will be able to perform a variety of tasks apart from flight training. Unfortunately, we do not have a release date just yet - but as usual we'll do our best to keep you posted.

  13. Hello everybody, DCS 2.7 is finally out and as you may have seen, the update broke several avionics animations of the MB-339. These days we have received several messages from the community asking for a solution and at the same time we have read several messages on Discord servers saying that ED probably broke the MB-339 mod as it will be sold as 3rd party aircraft. We therefore thought that it is necessary to clarify: The latest available version of the MB-339 is the 2.0.1 released on September 2019. From that moment, the aircraft has no longer received public updates as we started to work to get the 3rd party status (in particular thanks to the collaboration with IndiaFoxtEcho). From September 2019 to last week and despite many updates of DCS World, the MB-339 continued to work fairly well giving us several nice hours on this simulator although the mod lacked the navigation systems and several features. With the release of version 2.7, DCS World took a great leap forward which forced ED developers to make several changes within the DCS core with possible consequences for older mods like our MB-339. Now you are wondering: "ok Duke, thanks for the short story, but why doesn't the 339 work anymore? Why don't you update it?" The answers to these two questions are not covered by NDA so we can share them with you. Since version 2.0, the MB-339 avionics has been coded partly in C ++ (as we started the entire refactoring of the mod) and half in lua (legacy of the first version with SFM and .lua systems). The animations coded in C ++ are called by a function that with 2.7 is no longer supported, therefore they appear "frozen" when you in flight. This information is freely accessible to you all in the public API contained within the DCS.Openbeta root folder (...\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\API\include\FM, open the wHumanCustomPhysicsAPI.h file): /* update draw arguments for your aircraft prototype for ed_fm_set_draw_args also same prototype is used for ed_fm_set_fc3_cockpit_draw_args : direct control over cockpit arguments , it can be use full for FC3 cockpits reintegration with new flight model NOTE 2.5.7 and beyond: - ed_fm_set_fc3_cockpit_draw_args - not supported anymore , see ed_fm_set_fc3_cockpit_draw_args_v2 , - ed_fm_set_draw_args - supported , but ed_fm_set_draw_args_v2 is preferred */ typedef void (*PFN_SET_DRAW_ARGS) (EdDrawArgument * array,size_t size); So why not fix this by updating the 339? The answer is simple: the repository in which the C ++ code of version 2.0.1 was contained has been lost therefore it is not possible to recover it and the code of the MB-339 module is too advanced to be adapted to the mod. We are so sorry for this, the MB-339 mod has given us so much and from the beginning we were aware that like every beautiful thing, even the MB-339 mod would come to an end. We really thank you for all these years of support, the trust you have placed in our small development team, and we hope not to disappoint your expectations with our future DCS projects. Sincerly, MB-339 Dev Team.
  14. We are currently studying the sdk to make it functional, more info will come later Inviato dal mio SM-N975F utilizzando Tapatalk
  15. As promised recently, here is an update on the DCS MB.339. Our DCS development team is working hard on three different branches of MB-339 code and this week we have completed the realization of new loadouts for our aircraft. The new loadouts allow the MB-339 to perform new tasks such as runway attack and destruction, reconnaissance tank hunts and bombs for shooting training. The confirmed list of new items is as follows: - Conformal pod for DEFA 553 30mm cannon - Conformal por for AN-M3 12.7mm machine guns - Conformal pod for reconnaisance camera - Travel pod - Pylon fuel tank 330L - Mixed smoke/fuel tank PAN (smoke/fuel) - LR-25-0 (or AL-25-50) for 50mm rockets SNIA - 50mm rockets Snia ARF-8/M3 (API/HEI/TP) - BRD-4-250 for training bombs Mk-76 /MK-106 and 2 50mm rockets - Mk-76 for BRD without hook, Italian labels - MK-106 for BRD without hook, Italian labels - Durandal Bomb-rocket anti-runway - BAP-100 anti runway munition - BAT-120 anti armor munition Some of the items above are shown in the attached pictures. In addition, we want to share with you a brief video of BAT-100 usage with MB-339 (note that the videos does not represent the final product as it is recorded with a development package which can includes bugs and incomplete 3D model/textures). Unfortunately, the new Eagle Dynamics policy on additional weapons dictates that is up to their team to include new weapons within DCS World: IndiaFoxtEcho has provided ED with all our source material, including 3D models, ballistic data and configuration files used in our development package. We are currently unable to provide a forecast of when these new weapons will be implemented within DCS World but we are confident that they will be available on Day 1 of the MB-339 release. Speaking of dates, we are currently unable to provide a release window for the aircraft: as usual our policy is "it is done when it is done". Inviato dal mio SM-N975F utilizzando Tapatalk
  16. Hello! We are sorry, but as stated in the first post of this thread, this mod is no longer supported by developers. Inviato dal mio SM-N975F utilizzando Tapatalk
  17. Of course, as soon as we have some interesting stuff. Currently we have three different development branches opened and we are working to close them Inviato dal mio SM-N975F utilizzando Tapatalk
  18. IFE is composed by two teams which work in parallel on both platforms. News for DCS version are less due to the fact that the development on this platform is more complex Inviato dal mio SM-N975F utilizzando Tapatalk
  19. Sorry, we cannot discuss any release date at the moment Inviato dal mio SM-N975F utilizzando Tapatalk
  20. Eh beh... Inviato dal mio SM-N975F utilizzando Tapatalk
  21. It will ;) Inviato dal mio SM-N975F utilizzando Tapatalk
  22. Here is a quick update on the DCS MB-339: after achieving full damage, hydraulic and electrical simulation, our coding team is working hard to complete the rest of the package - since pretty much needs to be written from scratch in DCS, it is not an easy task... and we'll show you the new functionalities once they are ready. In the meantime, our art team has improved a number of small details while the external model textures have been remastered for better detail and visual fidelity.
