Dude, you know the sun is like, really, really bright IRL, right? It actually hurts to look at it. It actually cooks your eyes. There is a reason fighters like to attack with the sun at their back. Sent when I have better things to do

Isn't it personal choice? Maybe the mission maker appreciates seeing aircraft that match? Sent when I have better things to do

Well yeah... a toss is a hard maneuver. I'm willing to bet most people are introducing roll, yaw and a changing g or speed while doing it. All of that changes the continuously computer release point, which needs to be updated. The combined amount of errors that are building at the point of release is what causes errors. Level releases, same deal. Shallow dives, subconsciously, you can see the target and are probably more accurate. Look, because it can be accurate means it isn't necessarily broken. The way I see it, most people are complaining about very challenging bombing profiles being inaccurate. But the simpler ones are accurate... do you see the issue there? I remember when the bomb releases were very inaccurate, that was a slant range issue. That was corrected. Now, given a good release profile, I am, at least seeing accurate and consistent results. So... your milage sounds like it may vary. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

It has been in the past. I'm not going to go looking for it. But they have mentioned it. I think the main problem is that there isn't a consensus on how bad it really is. Some people (myself included) have pretty decent accuracy. And some have terrible accuracy (as I have in the past). I think that at some level it has to do with accuracy and delivery, because some of us have been getting pretty good hits. At another level, there isn't a lot of fragmentation damage modeled in the sim, so that exasperates the issue. So, basically, practice practice practice. You can get the hits.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try this out later on. Thank you Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Right... well... that's great. Nothing left to complain about. Haha, seriously though. I'm very happy that was handled in such a timely manner. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Best bet is the falcon bms performance charts for it. I checked them a while back and they are pretty close. Rumor has it is what they used for development. I can get them when I get home later Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Just browsing through the control options for the jet here figured it'd be nice if the air refuel transfer switch positions could be a 3 way switch. Personal Request. Only putting it here so it's documented. That is all. Thank you.

There are a couple things around the forums and youtube. Chucks guides are good, he covers most things. There are a couple youtube guys that do a great job. Xxxjohn is one that I like. If you're interested, I can get you links to the channels if you want, just let me know. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

That's probably the most rational thing I've read on this thread. Fair point. I haven't personally felt like it's below standard, but to each their own. Skinning wise there are a few things I could see being fixed in the future. But hey, everyone has a right to ask Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

He said he was planning on making his own bases for everything. Then different gimbals sets Then added hydraulic Then the extra accessories, like the ejection handle, general panel. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Alright, did a little test flight in it. Overall, I think it's great, it gets the job done, definitely an improvement to the game. It adds to the overall immersion. From the FOV that I use the text was a bit small, but not enough to require a change in my mind, I definitely had to zoom in just a bit to read, but that's no worry. It's on par with how I have to use the Kneeboard in the KA-50 as well. The tool is simple enough to use, I really like the interface that you designed for the kneeboard and ECM tool. I don't know how much work it would be, but the only thing I could even think to add would be an option to format the text a bit. Namely Bold, Italics, Underline, and Font color, I don't think I'd really need or use a different size, but like my headers to be at least underlined. Though, all that may be more trouble than it's worth. This definitely adds what I was originally thinking about when I started the thread. Thank you CrashO, great add. 10/10 should use if they fly the Mirage.

I'll give it a try tonight and give you some feedback.looks good though. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Then don't download it... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

CrashO, I hate that you are so productive. I had thought about this, but figured it wasn't open for editing. This is great. Even better than I originally hoped for. Great, just great. Is it limited to a single page? I know some aircraft that texture is linked to the kneeboard overlay. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Looking really good, actually worked out better than I originally thought. And for everyone else, here is the stream of consciousness that lead me to making this post One day I was filming a video, starting from the cold start. The mission didn't have waypoints pre loaded. While I was looking down at my real kneeboard as I was typing in my waypoints and while doing that the video was jumping all over the place and was really disorienting. And I thought to myself, man, it'd be nice if my waypoints were loaded into the kneeboard like the initial position was. That way I could just keep looking in game to plug it all in. As I thought more about it, I figured having some standard reference points in there would be nice. As well as my waypoints, but it couldn't just be the waypoints from the flight plan because in Blue flag or something it wouldn't be helpful. So a standard set of data that I had on there would be great. So, after I made a different mission I thought it'd be nice to send a quick file that my friends could place in a folder (or JSGME), they don't all use kneeboard maker or what not. Sure, paper works fine, but that's not what I'm looking for, nor is it the point of the post.

That's very cool. I'll have to play around with it this weekend. I can tweak some stuff but this looks like it's above my abilities. So I posed it to the community and devs, figured someone smarter than me could do something with it. BTW, ECM tool is great, especially since you can move the program from 2.0 to 1.5 and such. That's awsome. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Dear Devs, I came up with an idea that I'd figure I'd throw out there. I remember Cpt Smiley sending out the .Lua file that corrected the Kneeboard page after an update a little while back and it had me thinking. How cool would it be to have another (fourth) kneeboard page with an editable lua so we could place information into the in game cockpit that is both editable and yet persistent across multiple games. Here is an example: The utility cannot be overstated. Here are just a few uses 1) As shown, pertinent information for a flight. Mission designers could provide this file to players so they share it 2) In MP servers like Blue flag, players could plug in well known points (cities/farps etc) or common points of interest (CAP points, Rendezvous points etc) 3) Hotkey commands which are easily viewable (with the press of one button) 4) Listing important frequencies The page would be a very useful notepad customizable for each player. I'm aware that one could do nearly the same thing currently by making a photo and adding it to the kneeboard as well. I got this idea after using this tool to edit the aircraft's ECM programs https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/2262585/ Just my 2 cents, cheers

To add to what Jojo said, think about where that laser "spot" is. Think of it as a flashlight beam. The bomb needs to be able to see that beam on its way down or it will never track it. I usually place the A-10 below and behind me, offset maybe 20-45 degrees but not much more. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

A long time ago, before the ins was working there was. I thought they took it away though. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

So, just my two cents If I were going to change something, I'd have the entire jet have a more defined gradient lift to dark from nose to tail. It looks good but I think that might give you a bit more organized look to it. But hey man, I've been there. You'll never really feel finished. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Sweet. Looks much better. Good job. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Look in the dynamic numbering system thread. There is a solid post there on how to disable it Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
