    Tacview, the ACMI for DCS World – Official Thread

    Hi Vyrtuoz,

     

    Thank you for the answer. Managed to see it is very well populated already. No need to DL new objects at all. The addons were installed as instructed and they are very nice.

     

    I understood how MP works and seens like some cheaters used tacview to sneak up on enemies. What a shame.

     

    One more questio. Pretty soon, I will built a new rig. Is that easy to perform a new install and use my serial number?

     

    Thanks in advance!

     

    Anyway, it is a great tool.

     

    All the best,

    During testing I flew the mission more than 10 times with out facing the black hawk issue.

    Also I don't remember anyone from ED testing team referring to this.

    So it must be pretty random but since Greg made changes to the mission I am sure that this problem will be fixed.

    I do believe you, but happened to some guys flying the mission 3. I just flew it again and I avoided some close calls from those Blackhawks. It was fun anyway, but being hit by AI is not nice.

    Anyway, this is the way we have to help Greg to improve your product.

    Hi Greg,

     

    any estimation from your side when (all?) the mentioned bugfixes will make it into the next upate maybe? Some of them seems to be pretty much showstoppers for me at least, I don't really want to continue flying with a recepie for failure...

     

    Hi Greg,

     

    Just to add some data. Just tried to fly the Mission 3. Right after the rendevouz with the choppters, one of the black hawks crashed into me while en route to the art. site... Tried to complete the mission but was without speedometer, radio altimeter, FM nor ADF radios... It was a show stopper for me... :joystick:

     

    Well, gonna give it a try again...

     

    I will keep you posted.

     

    All the best,

    How to beat the MiG-29Gs?

    in F-5E Aggressors BFM Campaign

    Posted

    Hi Grommel,

     

    What I did was went full AB before the merge, got a lot of energy, went straight up and wait it to come up. It will for sure. When you fell is the right moment revert diving toward the Mig and Cannon him because he will be low on Energy.

     

    Do not loose sight! Good hunting.

     

    (I am stuck in the ACM campaign with the Migs. THey are nasty with those R-60s)

     

    All the best,

    WOW!!!!

     

    Just flew mission 1 and it's VERY NICE!!!

     

    I am not a regular Huey driver and I know I will hone my skills with this campaign. I'd say I went through the first one only one overbank, but other than that I NEVER thought I'd make to land back in ARGO, even more TWICE in the same mission!!!

     

    Thanks a lot and congrats on the campaign!

     

    All the best,

    Hi guys, good evening,

     

    I just download and installed the Tacview Pro version and I'd like to know more about it. Install went smooth.

     

    I managed to install teh F-5E.obj and some VFR charts that are on the site, but I'd like "more".

     

    1- Where can I download more .obj to be on static folder and in the meshes folder?

     

    2- How can I get these nice 3D areas for the NTTR?

     

    3- How can I record other traffics in the MP servers?

     

    I thank you in advance for any extra tip you may think important.

     

    All the best,

    F-5E ACM Campaign - First mission and first impression.

    in F-5E Aggressors ACM Campaign

    Posted · Edited by Sydy

    Hi Guys,

     

    I hope everybody is ok. I was away in a RL assignment. Today I had time to fly another F-5E ACM Campaign mission. This one came out quite interesting. It was against F-16Cs and they have a lot of thrust compared to the F-5E.

     

    The first engament was at 24kft and I sent my wingman to the left and we split their flight. I got radar contact right away and RWR alert. We pinced them. After the merge, I turned hard left toward their leader managed to get a good tone and put a sidewinder into him. I went in a defensive turn, completely blind and looking for the other planes (wing and enemy).

     

    After half a turn, I managed to get radar contacts and found one turning left on my 12clck high. I was under his nose and he didn't see me. I turned hard right on top of him, unloaded a bit, he turned right toward my wingman and I got a good tone on minimum range for a missile shot. Shot an AIM-9P5 and it penetrated the Viper on the top and right behind the pilot.

     

    Now we went for the 14.000ft engament. This time I consider a bit better because the F-5E has a better power response at lower altitudes. We bracketed the enemies. Got good radar contact and went head on with the wingman and padlocked on the leader... Then lost the sight... Argh! Kept turning and found two planes. Identified the first as my wingman and got on the F-16 tail. Ended up too close for a missile shot and switched to guns. Managed to track him allright and when in range and after a nice kick on the left rudder became in the same plane and aligned, but got the "faul" mark on the piper, anyway I managed to put a nice and well aimmed half second burst right into him. He lit up like a christmas tree. What the heck!

     

    Now it's the moment things went down the drain... Sort of... I kept my left turn looking for the other F-16, around 2kft agl. When I looked ahead he was right there and shooting a missile on my wingie. His missile tracked and impacted right on the F-5. Now he was pulling up, over the top on me, I was low on energy but kept the pressure with my nose up. Squizzed a missile to put some more pressure on him. He came down, I glued on his tail, after the pull in the bottom of the half loop, I managed to get a good tone, shot it, but the missile was trashed.

     

    On the next dive I went lag persue again, dived too much and broke the hard deck. This one we lost it but the end result was 3 x 2 and I will proceed with the next mission. Now against Mig-29Gs. This will be interesting.

     

    If you have the time to watch the movie about both engagements, here it goes:

     

     

    Let's see if I can fly one or two missions more before my next RL assignment.

     

    All the best,

    I'm having lots of problems to defeat the F-5s in the second mission of BFM campaign. Only once I got it down by gunfire. Do you believe that this campaign is easier than AFM?

     

    Hi Splash,

     

    I agree it's hard sometimes. It was horrible for me during the BFM campaign to pass the M2000Cs, but we gotta practice. I do consider the ACM campaign a kind of graduation of the BFM. Here you have to manage your wingman a lot and put an huge effort on situation awareness.

     

    Keep practicing and you will get there.

     

    All the best,
