  1. Ermm..looks to me like it's DCS mod . You can see A-10C TAD on the left. It even says A-10 there. Or I misunderstood what you are saying ?
  2. Hey guys, I wonder how the flight model will be evaluated? Is it going to be tested by a real pilot? Where does the data come from? I think I have missed that info. If anybody knows , could you clarify please, cheers
  3. I haven't seen 1.5 update, but from the experience with the current stable version I can tell that the Combined Arms is begging for a SAM control Panel/Station with at least what the images by @dpatt711 show. Good job dpatt711. The main pain is probably, that you can't lock targets from the radar screen.
  4. Copy, thanks.
  5. Hi guys, I am coming from A-10 C platform and much looking towards the M2000. I wonder if there will be a training mode/ training ordnance similar to A-10C. I mean , the sights , missile systems work as usual, just they don't launch. I imagine it would be very helpful for training air combat with your squadron mates without actually shooting and killing anyone ;-) It's all just the icing on the cake I know. But it adds to the simulation. Cheers
  6. @Looney, you sure? It's Ok with me
  7. And an old mission. From the A-10 perspective
  8. What shagrat said +1 Btw,I use firetrucks , fuel trucks when I play as ATC . Would be great if the fire truck had the sirens and the blue flashlights. I often send firetrucks when A-10s are coming for emergency landing. Also a follow me vehicle with orange flashlight would be so much fun. Also, I don't think the vehicles turn their lights on for the night ? It's also a bit stange.
  9. Cibit has a good point. "Jack of all trades master of none". I fly A-10C , tried Huey, F-15, Black Shark, but...I mainly use one. On the other hand I know a guy who is quite proficient with A-10C, Ka-50, Huey, Mig-21 and he is looking to buy Mirage next.
  10. +1
  11. That would be brilliant. I've seen stuff like that in "Dangerous Waters" game mission editor. +1 if possible.
  12. Hi there, A couple of wishes to me as DCS ATC controller and I am sure one of many, many ! Things that make serving an airport more difficult: - Lack of meteorological equipment. Only a problem if the weather is dynamic. But when it's dynamic it's a big pain to get the data. I use two x A10 to measure the wind direction and strength. In order to measure surface wind you have to take A-10 up the RWY and speed up to a certain speed before you get the readout. That's very awkward. Pressure is less of a problem. While playing as JTAC there hardly any possibility to obtain the data. Btw. Why it's manpad who has the JTAC capability, why not M4 infantry ? - Tower view. We put M4 Infantry unit on the tower then Ctrl + F7 to have a view of the airfield and aprons with zoom option. It's Ok, but also a bit awkward. - We use Follow me vehicles for planes that have the radio damaged (Aries radio) and also we use fire-trucks in case somebody declare emergency. Would it be much of a problem to add the flash lights on those vehicles ? Also standard night lights ? - Not an airport support, but also ground related. Would it be possible to civilian (people) units ? It would add so much to the missions. Especially CAS and JTAC play. Cheers
  13. - How is setting up GBU-12's laser code resolved in M2000C ? - Regarding the CCRP bomb release mode, does it look similar to A-10C ? Is the waypoint visible on HUD ? Does M2000C have anything similar to mark points ? How the navigation / ground points designation (if available) sorted out ?
  14. Any idea if any pods like TGP will be available ? Sorry, I know nothing about Mirage type jets. Would much appreciate the answer. Cheers
  15. Thanks Snarf. There's not much there: - 15inch monitor - I had to remove the stand and the second monitor may seem high for some people. - 2 MFD attached by velcro. I've removed the screws with little panels underneath the MFD frames , so they stick closer to the monitor. - Easy monitor configurator to allighn MFDs http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=71831 - Helios software: exported gauges I need(hard to read in the game: Fuel, Altimeter, warning lights panel, hydraulics pressure. RWR, gear status lights, CDU display, HSI, clock. I should move the joystick below the desk, cause it obstructs the monitor. - There's a standard numpad there. I have mapped the UFC fuctions to it. I am using a different one at the moment, with more keys. My mate uses this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151565799700?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT . He said that it is actually programmable, not a repeater. I haven't tested it myself though.
  16. No reliability issues. Have mine for about three / four years. I recently had a problem with the led light underneath the keys, it wouldn't start through TARGET software. But after I swiched it on via Windows it is now back to normal. As said before. It is a bit confusing to use it without monitor. You have to look up and down all the time and count which button to press. I don't know about framerate drop. It is possible. Mine is alright with two monitors. You might get a program like "Easy monitor" to export and easy place the MFD displays on the second monitor. While you there (two monitors) consider getting Helios software and put more stuff on the second monitor, like warning lights , etc... I have my MFD attached by velcro on an old 15inch monitor. Its a completely different game with a dedicated mfd monitor(s) and operating real buttons. It's quicker and you get better quality read out from the MFDs. I recommend it !
  17. Probably somebody mentioned this already....You watch a video from a pilot's perspective and you move your head around like you are using Track IR.
  18. When in work, you ask somebody over the phone to "Stand by".
  19. Hi , I am not able to assign axis/buttons. I mean, I am able to assign them, but they don't work in the game. This happened after one of the updates. Need :helpsmilie: , JTAC mission tomorrow!
  20. Hi, Sorry for digging out this thread. Last time I had posted a video here, people where happy about it, so I allow myself to insolently :beer: post another one You can definiately call it "Combined arms" example. There is a human JTAC player, A10C's, KA-50's and a Huey. https://youtu.be/mrxCmf_FLos
