Razorback

Welcome back to you ! Will you continue to produce some add-ons for DCS or will you be a more passive actor compared to the past?

When I said blow in from nowhere is related to their limited comms on the OH-58 and suddenly we can see some movies and screenshots with a well advanced module. Rumors in Jul 17...If you have to follow and to think that each rumours on DCS will give you a final or even a beta module... :smilewink: News from Oct 19...just 1-2 months ago ! :music_whistling: BO-105, We had a lot of information about the evolution of the module. F-14 from Heatblur, JF-17, MIG-15, and many others with similar information. I am very happy to see the arrival of a new RW in DCS. I just want to point out that DCS telling us regularly, and since several years, that the Mi-24 remains a module that is part of their priority but that so far, despite the latest announcements, we don't see much... As long as we do not see the work evolve in a concrete way, doubts will persist. And I don't think I'm the only one who thinks that way. In the meantime I am having a very good time with the Mi-8... but I am looking forward to the arrival of his "Big" brother. :) The duo Mi-8 and Mi-24 will allow us to carry out countless missions in our favorite simulator! :thumbup:

As mentionned on a french forum, OH-58 from Polyshop seems to blow in from nowhere and is more advanced than the Mi-24 announced some years ago. Priorities seem to be not the same... Curious to seen what will be the DCS news for 2020, 3 weeks to wait. For the Mi-24 in open beta...XXX weeks to wait. I don't imagine waiting one more year ! :cry::cry:

Just one word : waouwwwwwww !:thumbup::thumbup: That's a very nice job, well done ! I am looking for a collective lever but it's very hard to find :huh: Currently I am on the Mi-8 in order to be prepared for the arrival of the Mi-24. I think that this module is still not for tomorrow so I will wait till an real estimate date of release to start my project. My current KA-50 simpit : https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3980891&postcount=42 It was modified for the F-14B from heatblur but is now back to his original...

In order to prepare the "possible" arrival of the Hind, I decided to convert my KA-50 simpit to the Mi-24 one. We have in exposition in the Air Museum of Brussels a Mil-Mi-24 Hind-D from Ex-DDR. I am able to visit the beast from inside too (Pilot & Gunner) during Jan 2020, little report afterwards! :thumbup:

Thx for the tip Guys ! Problem solved, indeed RALT \ for Radio Communication when flying :thumbup:

Hi, I have already spent a few weeks on the Mi-8 but I am not able to resolve an issue with the radio. When I start from ground I have the Radio communication menu is working normally (via one button of my Thrustmaster F-18 stick). After take-off when I am in flight, it's impossible to reactive the Radio communication menu. After landing, Radio menu is working fine. Is it an issue with the Mi-8 (Bug) ? Thx alot Chris

Installed yesterday and working fine ! Thx a lot for the work, it's for me another very interesting mod in order to have a more immersive DCS simulation :thumbup:

Awesome, what a great work !!! Thxxxxx

01 Nov 19 : DCS WE News "Mi-24: UV mapping of the pilot’s cockpit is almost done and then we will spend about a month working on the animations and textures. The flight model is near 80% complete" The project is progressing and that's good news.:) Thx to NineLine to forward such Update:thumbup:

ED or others 3rd parties... It's a fact that for the moment we have only one real attack helicopter : The Ka-50. Others (Gazelle, UH-1, Mi-8 and even BO-105 or the possible Kiowa) can be equipped with different weapons systems but have limited capabilities. The Mi-24 will normally be the second real attack helicopters in DCS and I can understand that some people are asking for a western attack helicopter. The only one mentionned by Wags was the AH-1 but seems to be on "hold on" status. For me it's a fact that attack helos were not the priority of ED. 12 years after the release of the KA-50 module, we are still waiting for another real attack helicopter. The figures speak for themselves DCS (or others) available helicopter modules : 4 :( DCS (or others) available modern aircraft modules : more than 12 DCS (or others) WWII/Prop aircraft modules : 6 + Christen Eagle & YAK-52 So I really hope that ED will finally be able to start working on the successor of the KA-50 and that we can enjoy a real new attack helicopter.:thumbup: My preference is clearly for the Mi-24 but the AH-1 could be a very intersting alternative. Let's go for 2020 !

That's a great news !! Thx for sharing I posted some questions (in english) on the russian forum ! Gents, feel free to show your interest and to send additionnal questions... It seems that finally the project Mi-24 takes a new breath :thumbup:

Matt Wagner interview on Mudspike https://www.mudspike.com/mudspike-ama-with-eagle-dynamics-senior-producer-matt-wagner/?fbclid=IwAR3F1F--xIrf-M9WXAx8E_Ccza9WwTpGpvA5UUci8z54TRYV35LWvZGrFSE Next aircraft : P-47 (Q1 2020)....Mi-24 Hind and Mosquito Some other good news regarding the Mi-24! Cross our fingers...the Hind is approaching...slowly but surely :):)

Could you confirm that DCS is running faster when Game Mode is disabled (Windows 10) ? Thxxxx

I LOVE SWEDEN ! Thx a lot guys, I think that we all really appreciate your communication and updates, that's the right way to communicate with customers. Already looking forward to discovering the next products.

Release of the F-18: CHECK Release of the F-16 : CHECK (just some more hours to wait) Release of the Mi-24 : ???? I really hope that it will (finally) be the next DCS module...:( After the Syrian map or the P-47, or the DCS Carrier, or the Ka-50 and A-10C upgrade, or....or...or...:cry:

"What is this Mi-24 Hind doing here...." It was long long (too long) time ago in another video from Wags... So even in this case, don't expect too much...

Nice video and a lot of view from inside the cockpit...for those who are thinking to build a simpit ! :smilewink:

Here is mine. I am a real rotorhead (I have my Private Helicopter Pilot Licence on Robinson 22) and fore sure, even for an helicopter simulation, use a collective lever is much more immersive than a jet throttle. i bought mine in germany, it was a kit to transform your Saitek X-52 throttle to a collective lever. I know that the guy don't sell it anymore but it can give you some ideas for an home made model. I really like this one : http://oe-xam-simulators.blogspot.com/2019/08/please-choose-your-country-huey.html#more

Good news ! Finally a small (ok a small but beter than nothing !) update regarding the Mi-24 project. Still a lot of questions...because the two screenshots released in the last Weekend Update are quiet the same as the last released in Jan 19. Just with a different view...:huh: https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=217505&d=1568989179 https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=217506&d=1568989189 Even the screenshot of the P-47 seems to see a more advanced module...:music_whistling: So I think we're going to be even more patient ! I hope that all of this will help us : https://www.nbcnews.com/better/lifestyle/how-train-yourself-be-more-patient-ncna1022356 But I have to admit that some weeks ago I asked to NineLine to give us more information on the current project (even those are not the ED priority) and that's the case for this last update..;so thx to him ! :thumbup:

+ 1 :thumbup: My favorite movie on my favorite war machine !!!;)

We just know that at least one or more modders are still working on the Mi-24 project. For the rest, no new real annoucements since Jan 19. For sure, ED current priorities are the F-16, F-18 and DCS carrier (Syrian map ??). After the release of the F-18 in open beta version, the Hind was normally the next module but....suddenly came the F-16 project. And we can see that during the last 9 months much more were done on the F-16 project compared to the Hind. So ED priority of today will maybe not the same on the day after. We have to live with this and wait for additionnal information... Be patient... But for sure, we are many to wait for this magnificent combat helicopter :thumbup:

For sure we will not see the Mi-24 module in the coming months (even in open beta version), but receiving news times to times lets us continue to dream of a future availability... I requested to NL to share more info on the non-priority modules even if it's only to say that X or Y projects are still under development and are progressing slowly... I am pretty sure that BS3 will come before the Hind. Quiet normal because just an upgrade and as Zhukov has mentionned, the multicrew has to still to be developped by ED.

Gents, None "strategic" news regarding the status of the Mi-24 module but at least the NineLine answer on my concerns about the status of this module...OUR module ! ;) https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4021790&postcount=70

NL, thx a lot for this clarification. :thumbup::thumbup: Each Friday I look forward to your "WE news" and yes I totally agree such communication was inexistant years before and that's a real progress... Please just take into account the fact that sometimes even if there is nothing concrete to say about some modules, it could be good to give some news (even if limited) and not only to be focus on the current priorities (development of F-18, Falcon, Supercarrier,....). The Mi-24 is a good example : - Last Mi-24 development news in WE news : 27 Dec 18 !!! - Last screenshots (from Wags) : 31 May 19
