  1. I guess camera tech is so good now reconnaissance can be done from space, via the USAF's X-37, or whatever. Negating the need for the SR-71 etc? It is a shame to see these masterpieces of engineering become obsolete.
  2. Where are these signatures? This is all I see: null
  3. ACLS does not currently work with FFB sticks
  4. That's great @scommander2. Thanks. I hope the Devs are aware of this list. To get confirmation they've seen each of these items individually (on here and Discord), would be some task at this point.
  5. Will 'heaters' miss more often now?
  6. How does one determine this? Does the tone emitted by the seeker rise if a flare passes in front of it?
  7. This switch (see attached image from the F-14 manual), no longer functions. Your video is interesting. The launch bar is flickering, perhaps indicating it's not sure which position it's supposed to be in. How were you able to achieve this? Please note: I am not referring to kneeling and extending the nose gear. That's a different system. I am just referring to the Emergency Abort Switch depicted below. It used to function, up until about two patches ago. Although the manual says it's not currently used in DCS. They must have removed this functionality. I swear to you it used to work.
  8. Yes, launch bar seats okay in shuttle. About two patches ago the launch bar abort switch ceased to function.
  9. Is the fact the AI wingman's flaps flicker/flap about included in the 'To Fix' list? It's a long-standing problem that may require ED's intervention. Thank you @scommander2, you're doing the Lord's work.
  10. As of yesterday's Patch, this is now fixed.
  11. Negative, that's the minute hand you're pointing to. The issue is the additional stationary hour hand at the 12 o'clock position. If you turn down the instrument lights and then up again you'll see what I mean. It's only when I saw it on Discord the other day that I realised, and thought it was something we could add to the fix list. Thanks.
  12. Forgive me, but I find this wording a little confusing. Perhaps it should read something like: 'Clock: Duplicate hour hand present with illumination.' With regard to the Abort Launch Switch; I don't have the F-18 module, so don't know if it's an issue for them.
  13. Huh? I'm referring to two different issues.
  14. TO FIX: Hour hand repeated in teh 1 o'clock position at night. Discord: • Discord | "Clock has 2 hour hands "illuminated"" | Heatblur Simulations TO FIX: The Abort Launch switch has ceased to function. Perhaps indicates this system is being worked on with Supercarrier/Deck Crew functionality.
  15. Well, according to Discord it's been known about since April 2023. So I guess a fix is in the pipeline.
  16. The AI wingman's fuel probe sometimes (most of the time these days), does not make proper contact with the basket. It hovers around the two o'clock position. As a workaround I ask the wingman to RTB and then join-up. That way he stops trying to refuel. Of course he won't have taken any fuel onboard and is likely to run out before the end of the mission, but I'm not sure what else one can do until it's fixed by ED/HB. In addition to this I believe most of the time the AI wingman's ext. fuel tanks are empty at the start of the mission. So he's always likely to run out before you. I'm not sure if this is a bug, or the fault of the mission programmer.
  17. Thank you so much for this @Biggus. This gain adjustment of which you speak is bespoke software that comes with the Moza? I understand the Phantom has some sliders related to autopilot breakout strength and whatnot. Be nice to see something similar for the Tomcat. It's good to hear that HB are aware. I'll have to try and get into Discord. Thanks again. EDIT: Found it. Thanks. null
  18. So, you guys are confirming that ACLS doesn't currently work with FFB and you've had intermittent issues? I'm trying to establish if there is a common fault with ffb so we can present our findings to HB, or my problems are exclusive to my aged ffb stick. I don't want to fork out for an expensive new ffb stick only to find there are inherent problems that HB are in no particular hurry to fix. Basically I'm looking for feedback (pun intended) from any FFB users out there. Thanks.
  19. They certainly did an incredible job keeping those jets flying all this time. The F-14 was notoriously maintenance heavy. It's no wonder the US defence budget is so big when they're so wasteful.
  20. Apologies for annoying you Naquaii. You seem to be one of the very few 'DEVS' who keep in touch on the F-14 forum these days, so I tried flagging you down. Where is everyone? How am I supposed to know who's in charge of responding to these things? Your Avatar says HB 3rd Party Developer. If it said "Hey, I'm just the SME Guy and researcher for the F-14", I would have still sent it to you, because how am I supposed to know who does what? The Bug Report I sent you, has been in existence since September. It's formatted in the correct way and correctly located in the Bugs & Problems section, but as you can see for yourself there's been no response. It's all very well all the cool kids being on Discord, but not of all of us have access to that and why should we need to? Having bug reports in two different locations is madness. This forum is the original source for information and I think it should be the first place everything gets posted. This mini-rant isn't directed at you personally Naquaii, you just happened to be the only representative of the firm to wander by in quite some time.
