yup, we are still learning ED's new AG render
including how to make the EXP/DBS TDC movement accurate
the black narrow beam is old fx script, will fix in next patch
let's test more and see what's the root cause
since only 16/18 has launch warning when 17 tws launch
16/18 has no launch warning when 14 tws launch
other aircraft has no launch warning when 17 tws launch
we haven't changed sd-10 for more than two months, and this seems to be appeared in July update
we need to test more to make a conclusion
1. ED just simulates front cross section for RCS
2. RCS is determined by ED
3. 3m^2 vs 4m^2 is ultimately better RCS perf?
4. yup, sd-10 is better modeled than old 10nm aim-120
But ultimately?? At least sd-10 cannot turn 180 to track target ;)
I don't know whether you have really played DCS during the past few months or you just repeat biased comments?
5. in your mind, China asset must be weaker than western production ?
I found some players cannot rebind their thrust axis mapping in Input window.
If you are familiar with text editor and lua file modification, please follow the attached screenshot for a quick fix
1. navigate to saved game/dcs.xxx/config/input/jf-17/joystick/
2. open the device_xxxx.diff.lua using text editor (non windows one)
3. locate the AxisDiff section and then the section with name "Thrust" (red)
4. delete the whole subsection for name "Thrust" (blue)
5. same operation for wheel brake
* If you are not familiar with the diff.lua modification, you may need to delete the diff.lua, and rebind all your device mapping.
------------------
In OB 2.5.6.
-------------------
JF-17
Fixed: AG radar EXP/DBS mode render (Thank ED)
Fixed: AG radar DBS1/2 image refresh
Fixed: RWR database cleared after repair
Fixed: WMD7 bypass BIT in cold start
Added HNS initial implementation
Adjust INS FAST/GC drift
Adjust MFCD/HUD/UFCP brightness when born at night
Removed wmd7 ir pointer (for debug purpose)
Removed “mimic” echo (white dots) in AG radar MAP mode
if it doesn't hurt, you can delete the diff.lua file for your virpil in saved game
if you know how to edit diff.lua, please open it using npp, and find ["name"] = "Thrust" in ["axisDiffs"] section, and remove the thrust binding
it will be broken in the next ob update (Aug)
since ED just changed the exp render code, and we need to ask ED what has been changed and need time to make them work.
