    [MERGED -OLD BUGS] Forum Cleanup

    in Resolved Bugs

    Posted

    Please to do the first 0 as blank texture. Its a small bug but fuselage numbers never looks like 099 or 009 (if its possible in DCS).

     

    latest?cb=20130728091956&path-prefix=pl

     

    It will be nice to see 4 digits also on fuselage.

    Just idea.

     

    Agreed to having correct numbers although it isn't urgent so do more important stuff first.

    Yo-yo will you be doing any skins for the 19 once the paint kit has become available.

    Please, dont forget about keybindings for „19”

    Posted · Edited by Brigg

    After going thru all the MiG-19 cockpit controls - I would like to offer one piece of advice to ALL module developers:

     

    Please make the TOOLTIP NAME the same as the control is listed in the CONTROL OPTIONS! :helpsmilie:

     

    Not a Razbam 'sin' really, it's the same with many modules. But it would only make sense -want to do a keybinding? Check the name with tooltip, find the same name in the control options - done! Sometimes there's only slight difference like 'Radio Navigation Electric Power' is 'Nav Radio Power' - but sometimes they are actually pretty hard to find and have to do some trial & error. Why not the same? It only makes sense! :) Okay, rant off - lets get down to business! :D

    OTHER MISSING CONTROLS

    //ALL plane controls definitely should have keybinging possibilities too, here's a list that I found that were missing altogether - in addition to those already listed above. I just don't have enough experience on the plane yet to sort these to important/not-so-important. In general, in a perfect world, push button should be ON/OFF in the control options, toggle switch/rotary switch should offer separate ON and OFF options in addition to ON/OFF and possible CW&CCW (mimicing the real thing and offering all the possibilities for controls). Note the names are as they are shown on cockpit TOOLTIPS.

    BUGS:

    //Couple bugs I found while going thru the controls.

     

    Activate Built-In-Test (Radar) > If using keyboard, button is pressed but doesnt return (no way to stop other than using mouse)

    ARK-5 NEAR Frequency Selector Switch (on the left panel, Tooltip) > Should be FAR? Atleast says so in the manual.

    ADF Manual Frequency Up/Down > Doesn't seem work properly when using keyboard. Is very erratic, most of the time doesnt do anything, doesnt respond to multiple keypresses.

    Thanks Zeus for looking into these - and thanks for a great module! :pilotfly:

     

    Yeah I will agree with that, the only thing I would add is keybinds for the cockpit pressurisation valve and cockpit ventilation switch. also the rwr and iff switches

    I ran several tests on the Viggen with 104th_Stuge about a year ago:

     

    Him flying the Viggen was always able to easily outturn both the MiG-21 and the F-5. The wings of the Viggen enable it to hold attitude and turn ratio easily at low speeds. She seemed to never stall. But then again it was Stuge flying, who happens to be one of the best out there.

    As to the MiG-19... well, that bird still needs to be tested. The MiG-19 outturns the F-5, that we know. So maybe it's just as good as the Viggen or even a bit better. And that bit could be countered by good pilot skills.

     

    Absolutely, be a good pilot and always fly your aircraft to its strengths
