@MAXsennado you have some documentation on ffb? i'd love to see whats going on under the hood - i'd like to be able to take on a project for someFFB rudders, but if there is no Z axis built into the directinput standard - prolly screwed on that. This guy has done something with ffb rudders: http://www.simprojects.nl/rudder_pedals_with_force_feedback.htm

Man i hate to tell you this, but that particular stick has always been a POS. I can assure you that the MSFFB2, as well as the G940 both function well in DCS, though this is an aircraft specific experience in terms of which effects you're going to feel. Which module are you trying to fly with the stick?

I am so excited for this. Getting a big boy CNC router early next year - this will be a project in the early days, cant wait.

+1

What an endorsement!!

The SU-25T is included for free in the base game.

Can we get some kinda reply here? Why is this team incapable of responding?

i didnt do a great job of documenting my work in my post, but i did include the bodnar board in my build. it lives in parallel to the stick's native output - and does offer improved precision and kills the deadzone.

Smart! Insightful!

lol your laziness apparently extends to not bothering to look at a forum join date too. You've literally added nothing to the discussion - which is moot anyway as Alpen has rendered a decision. Cool self own - smart and insightful!

Just jumping in to say - screw the F-104. The F-105 is the better choice! Thud all the way! Seriously though, the untapped Cold War era aircraft are many and varied, and i'd buy all of them as soon as they're made available. Too much of DCS is MFD and glass cockpit systems work, i would love to see a return to stick and rudder, no FBW, early guided weapons, and get away from the overly modern birds (fun though they are).

According to the dev team it is - see my post a couple pages back.

Good stuff! This will sure help out those guys trying to get a virpil grip on an older stick for the FFB. as soon as i'm able to knock out the 15 other projects i've got going, lol, not to mention all of the honey-dos, i'll be able to start in on the G940 rebuild and the button boxes. This is what i mean: https://github.com/Flashgod-VR/G940-Total-Conversion-Kit

well, there is a caveat to the TM compatible stick work, but yes do you have some preferred resources on the mmjoy2 setup? The caveat is that i understand the hand brake lever on the virpil sticks is inop when used as on a tm base - is this the case with the mmjoy2 setup?

You know, I really was serious about his points being good, and valid - but his mouth foaming and hand waving at the slightest mention of adding something to the server, plus his pessimistic attitude about the community in general just rubbed me wrong. to me the issue is dead until @Alpenwolfdecides its not - I'm sure we'd all love the A4 to become an officially sanctioned module (would be nice if ED threw the team a bone and let them keep it open, and still add it to the roster), and we all know its not going to happen in the short term so its a dream suspended for now.

Good point! Smart! Insightful!

Good points! You're so smart and insightful!

I think you're overly dug in on your position to have a meaningful discussion with.

maybe not perfect, but def the best MP PVP on DCS. Its a heartbreak but i'm sure we will cope - maybe its something to look at in the future if things change around implementation.

I agree with your concerns and think they're valid and should be addressed in proper fashion -at the same time I think that the value of the scooter for this server is undeniable. The charm of this server is also in the type of players it attracts - and I think critically, repels. The real core of this server's community I think, and please let me know if you think I am off-base here, would find no hardship in grabbing the module, I mean hell - the bird is straight up a peak cold war aircraft. I'll accept the decision one way or the other, but man, its surely a warranted addition in terms of its place in the era, and its roots in the community.

Yes, i feel this is reasonable:)

Sure would!

I ninja'd you - check my post just above yours. the caveat is that it'd be weird to see a flanker dropping snakeyes for bluefor lol. i checked in the A4 discord to see if anyone had any ideas on how to maybe force another model in this case, but they said is a fallback behavior inherent to the engine.

I totally understand your concern here and agree that is a problem for sure - the good news is that there is a solve for this, though it has a caveat, which is stupid, but may be acceptable... I took this from the A4E Discord - i hope this isnt any kind of toe-stepping!

It seems that there should be more to this than just "its free so no".
