  1. Guys tomorrow before I go to work I'll drop a miz file in here with some examples. It's not " hard " but sometimes something as simple as a misslpaced letter will not allow the script to run.
  2. The reenforcing plates look amazing! Don't know if you've seen this or not but there is some good info in this article. Looking forward to the release! https://www.usaf-sig.org/index.php/reference/41-research-material/82-f-16-viper-faq-stuff-you-wanted-to-know-about-the-f-16cd
  3. I'm sorry...The Folding@home project has been around for years with zero issues. Your concerns are unfounded.
  4. Aviate.. Navigate... Communicate... Operate... Aviate...Learn how to operate the aircraft. When you can do 25 cold starts, takeoffs and landings in a row without forgetting anything move on to ... Navigate...learn how to fly point to point using all of the tools at your disposal. Learn what the information on the HUD, HSI, CDU screens means. Learn how to create way points and put them into a flight plan.... Communicate...learn how to use Simole Radio and the in game comes to communicate with your teammates... Finally learn how to operate different weapons systems. Start with unguided dumb weapons and move in from there.
  5. I never said it was "reality"...I said it wa the goal. And I never said or imposed I had "first hand" experience with F-16s. My experience with F-16s involved refueling them as we hauled them back and forth to the desert, long conversations with pilots and maintainers while deployed and publicly available information. The "goal" Was standardization...But I know programs completed over time suffer from feature creep and changes. Remember also that the CCIP upgrade was done in phases based on subsystem availability. So yes at some points plane would go for depot and only receive part of the upgrade or another... But the Desired end result Was standardization. During MY career I saw numerous upgrades and TCTOs that didn't look exactly the same from one jet to the next...but the majority did.
  6. This idea has merit. The purpose of the CCIP Program was standardization of the "F-16" fleet 40/42's and 50/52s all went through the program. And in theory...all emerged with basically the same cockpit layouts and capabilities. As far as I can decipher, modeling the Post CCIP 40s would only require the removal of a few details to be correct. The Bird Slicer IFF antenna and JMHCS transducers inside the canopy are the most obvious items that stand out. Modeling the Block 42/52s would require the Pratt & Whitney engine be modeled along with the correct afterburner external details. I'm sure I've missed something but I'm to tired to go to the big computer to search for stuff... This has good info https://www.usaf-sig.org/index.php/reference/114-research-material/82-f-16-viper-faq-stuff-you-wanted-to-know-about-the-f-16cd Maybe on down the road, ED will do a 42/52 version the way they have with the modernized A-10C. Edit: ooops my bad So in reality all it might take is removing the Bird Slicer antennas to do the 40.
  7. https://www.usaf-sig.org/index.php/reference/41-research-material/82-f-16-viper-faq-stuff-you-wanted-to-know-about-the-f-16cd?fbclid=IwAR2KmDkm3o6DWc1kdh9RBXqfzhnOhrfY5Vz4p9lnoBsZLVLGCxxb8iHybMc Scoll about 1/2 way down the page there is a good bit of information about the Canopies. People who think Flight Simmers are Rivet counters have never met a scale modeler :)
  8. Pretty Close...I was thinking more along the lines of the one in the Lower Right Corner. https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=199291&d=1544044305 A white version and a Blue Version would be nice. Up and to the late 90s there was a usually a Large Red Number on the Blue ones to identify which rig belonged to which speicialists...They stopped that practice for OPSEC reasons. Here's some more ideas. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3134820&postcount=79
  9. Two Questions... A.) Any update on when the F-16 Skins are gonna hit the streets? and B.) any Chance you can reskin the VPC Ambulance as an White Air Force Maintence Truck?
  10. I just discovered this webpage https://dod.defense.gov/OIR/Airstrikes/ It list by date what missions were conducted. Not overly detailed but provides good guidance for what kind of missions can be built with the Syria map.
  11. Thats it? 900 SAMs, A Carrier and a Baby Carrier (No Statics on EITHER One...) Some Support Aircraft outta Incirlik and a working Mission to build on? OH and no support? <SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH> OK...It'll have to do. Seriously Pikey Out of the Park Brother! Thank you very much for doing this for the group!
  12. Well to be honest, designator codes are loaded with the Data Cartridge either. They are Physically set on the weapon using a screw driver. The ultimate solution would be a screen showing the seeker head and the setting screws and you adjust them.
  13. Will the A-10C II continue using the CDU to enter Laser Designator Codes or will it use the "Kneeboard Method" used in the F-16CM. The latter is much more realistic in my opinion.

  15. We’re both aircraft in the same flight in the mission editor or two delegate flights?
  16. Can ya post a try and I'll look into it in the morning? Sierra
  17. Gentlemen, I have a T.Flight headset that the ear pieces have begun falling apart on in less than 6 months. the good folks at Thrustmaster have informed me the ear pieces are not covered by warranty so...sorry. Has anyone else had this problem and found suitable " plug and play " replacements? If I can't find pnp I think the next step may be 3D printing some adapters so I can use David Clark ear pieces. Thanks in advance for any help
  18. Actually according the the good scientists in the PSD career field it does increase your G tolerance. . Google AIR FORCE PAMPHLET 11-419 for more info. Now is what we have in DCS 100% correct...maybe, maybe not...But the simple fact they have modeled G warmups inflight and the effect it has in the ability to pull g in the game is an impressive detail.
  19. > Flight model and FLCS tuning < https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4453236&postcount=266 > Flight Dynamics Several subject matter experts are involved in further improvements to the flight model and flight control system. This will provide substantial accuracy enhancements and we look forward to your feedback.< https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4432151&postcount=263 It seems ED is actively working on the flight dynamics and the flight model...
  20. First, I'd like you to show me a real world tactics manual describing this technique. Russian, American or otherwise. I'm pretty sure real world pilots don't try to use these kind gimmicks during dogfight? Second, Your assumption is flawed regarding the second missile finding a "Bigger Heat Source". Heat source is relative and subject to change. A number of years ago I had the opportunity to handle several different Soviet and American MANPADS in a training environment. (Real weapons, no motors or warheads) I can tell you for fact what the seekers REGULARLY locked on to...was NOT the "bigger heat source (aircraft)." Remember, Missiles don't just look for heat...they look for specific heat in a specific range on the IR spectrum.
  21. Would ya mind providing the LUA so I can how this is done?
  22. What step did you take to launch?
  23. Which Osprey mod is that? Does it include a folded version?
  24. You need to attach a .trk file. They need that more than the miz.
