  1. Id kill for VR. if you have enemies PM me.
  2. My dad was a phantom WSO he said you couldnt see a fckn thing unless dogfighting and looking up or w.e I dont know if he could lean like I can in RIO and see the pilots front, like his hud etc. I think the F4 the seat was higher and there was more clutter in the cockpit the F4 was like as far as they could take it with dials and stuff for sensory overload the fighterpilots podcast on the F4 is fascinating. Early RWR was literally commercial stuff with suction cups put on the canopy first LGB was buddy lazed.. by a hand held lazer.
  3. I challenge you to a dogfight. I have track ir and hotas thats it. you can haev any plane you like. ( bear in mind if you take half modelled not full fidelity planes, ill do it, but only full fidelity modelled counts, like the f14 is) me F14. Ill ROCK you. with the 'sucky' forward viz
  4. come on hb.. you said October. ya ya its mid month, youre really gonna make us wait to the very end?? smh. i love you guys but.. sometimes
  5. SKINS. THATS IT. Id be interested in HAWKS replacing phoenies if that ever worked my advice - I found out ( I DIdnt want to, numbers test ruin immersion for me) early phoenixes fall for chaff super easy. So I think realistically if you wanna play IRIAF and its 80s 1 or 2 phoenixes. IF its past 80s Id use old sparrows and sidewinders. Ive never seen convincing evidence they made the hawk a phoenix equivalent or whatever
  6. Rarely Usually Im HIGH 40k ish DCE campaign someone swapped Jeffs for flankers so I fight the USN a lot I gotta loft the sd10s or Im dead. then its run time. Sometimes I catch planes attacking the convoys or something, if theyre about 20k lower than me a 10 mile shot has hit. Its NOT common and the plane was headed towards the missile. but fighting the US with F14s AND F18s, you need to launch your **** and run
  7. First disclaimer Im totally new to mission designs Ive tested etc others Someone - lets collab on a skyhawk campaign its screaming for it we.ll KISS it and then make another if it works well? short one at first? Im thinking based on the excellent haiphong missions released but of course changed so we arent plagiarising his work ? ( I mean just use the area etc. It 'felt' vietnamish to me
  8. U need miguel or p80 or eagles help From what little I could read of the error you installed it wrong thats all I know the fact u got into the pit its odd though... I think that entire dce campaiugn is borked as is on ur comp. I had the same issue trying to make the ww2 p51 camp work what sucks is if we all genuinely tried to help EVERYONE here, we all could be playing. instead its very uneven One day someone gets help then 3 months go by
  9. the solution? dont turn the F14 or F18 on, turn on time accelerate. go to f2. if you dont notice your heading starting to change within a few minutes its not the answer. If you notice your heading slowly and steadily change the carriers turning. accelerate time until its either turned about 110 degrees ( Its not gonna turn much more and you can start up and itll stop turning before alignment) OR wait till its going straight. then take off. Otherwise NO IDEA sorry The GCI is weird, I dont know about the Mig sorry. try turning on EZ comms, I had endless problems with comms sometimes and in other campaigns its fine. for example miguel switched the flanker for the JF17 for me. Comms work great in TF68 ( one of them ) I cant get radios to work unless its ez comms. The GCI works just like AWACs FYI. If you do get it working, use multiples. What I mean is ask 1 station then immediately ask another. they can be off!
  10. +1 Liberation has a financial aspect too like your a PMC and you control all the strikes, they arent generated automatically. Its more like being a commander of all forces AND pilot. ( you even have to buy ground forces and tell them to be offensive, defensive, ambush etc! ) DCE is much more close to just being 'another pilot'
  11. The Liberation campaign gen (did I get name right?) Is cool. Lots of ppl like it. Wasnt totally my thing DCE IMO is the best. By far. However I had a motherf***er of a time getting it to work though many dont and get it working easy peasy. The dudes on thread will help and theres a DCE for almost every plane as well. Thats what Id recommend. the damage is persistent blah blah.
  12. Yes and no. The radar will find your target. but it I wont hear tone all the time. your best bet is use radar to find the target, and I use the tiny circle ( honestly dont know if thats where the seeker head rlly is pointed but...) and try to get it over the box wehre the enemy is. Usually if I do so suddenly I get a LOUD tone, if within 10 miles. fire and kill If I fire with NO tone, it usually just flops I cant seem to recall, is there a cage seam unseam
  13. WOW! I gotta say this is why the Jeff and F14 are the only modules I keep going back to
  14. that answer you got linked to - for me - was VERY ominous. Features 'TO BE ADDED LATER IN EA!!!" have a habit of disappearing.. or like the F14 we just are endlessly waiting 2 years later in the case of thee hind with the extra crewman thatd be an utter disaster. the hind was a must buy, my fav helo, and now Im seriously considering waiting until theres a 'jesterski' and multicrew or not buying at all. I was burned by the gazelle and huey already on multicrew I dont think tje 'huey theory' is correct What exactly would a HIND gunner AI /and pilot AI be helpful for in a huey besides nav? Targetting?? I guess with rockets... but what about the totally different nav systems? ATGMS? A2A? I dont see it. Also I dont code but it seems like itd be really odd and hard to go to a 5 year old product, implement some sort of AI copilot.. for testing? Why not just test in the hind they got??
  15. oh I know it aint easy I cant code at all.
  16. I understand diff ppl are doing diff things however at some point if ppl are coding new stuff that means they arent coding stuff we were promised *BEFORE* or we REALLY need. Some stuff is 'hey neat' and some stuff *NEEDS* to be added because its glaring and would IRL be easy as pie- 2 examples Jester (SP) using LGBS Jester IFF
  17. wasnt invented at the time
  18. whastever happened to our promised AH1Z? old schools great! not a glorified Autopilot manager! (looking at u KA50)
  19. was the high altitude a development because Afghanistan or stronger engines in general?
  20. ^ this hell in IL2 if you do a snap climb in a Tempest youll dewing yourself. flyings ALL about those smooth inputs
  21. I didnt have the same exact issues but Draconus is onto something. I had ALL these wonky issues for example joystick or mouse would turn off randomly. And decide when theyd work again. etc. until I added a powered USB cable. I think comps can only handle so much USB on their own, and if you did what I did with splitters going to splitters.. well..
  22. Ive seen real a6s cat and trap on the most wonderful day of my childhood (father got CV65 dependents day passes and it went out to sea for the day, f14s, f18s, A6s (1995) it was AWESOME sonic boom. dummy bombs. I got pix of pix. Anyways. Im in love with the A6. I aalways had a thing for side by side seating in modern A/C. IDK why. The A6 to me is the penultimate tactical bomber. Reading about them in desert storm the B52s had no external racks like Nam. So 3 A6s carried more ordinance than a 52
  23. Ive never seen my canopy cracked?
  24. Yet again for no reason, (last time I even tried emergency o2 and descended to 10k with ram air. this helped but didnt save the day. this time I did none of it but want to illustrate it - Im distracted trying to input a new WP - Anyone who DLS this PLEASE PLEASE do not spread it around EXCEPT for bug testing. its NOT my mission!!) AeriaGloria should remember I had this issue before.. Please - if theres any doubt Ill fly it again with about 99% certainty itll happen again .it struck last time I flew this mission. The last time this incidentr occured I was flyign a DCE ,campaign. it wouldnt go away until I skipped the mission entirely. It seems the bug somehow borks the mission.
