    Frankfurt ILS runway 07L-25R issues

    in Bugs and Problems

    Posted · Edited by grim_reaper68

    Hi

    I found some issue in the beacon lua file. I checked all glideslope and localiser positions who are correct, but the frequencies are totally mixed as shown in the screen below.

    In fact, compared to Hannover, there is a mix in the loc and G/S frequencies. I modified the lua file, so I could activate the second runway where I noticed no issue at all. LOC and GS works fine. But the main runway ILS system is still broken. As showed on the screen below, the localiser of the runway 25R-07L doesn't work correctly, and is inverted. Normally, if you are on the right of the runway, the needle should be on the left, in this situation the needle is on the right... it's made with the stock beacons.lua file 

    As you can see, I'm on the right of the runway (light blue line), and the needle shows that I'm on the left. It should be on the left side (as drawed with the darker blue line). Both screen where made at the same position as you can see that I was in active pause while switching the ILS frequencies. Only the zoom in the cockpit is different.

    in comparision the ILS on runway 25L works fine with corrected frequencies and modification in the beacons.lua file, as shown below. Frequency 111.70 for runway 25L ILS approach,set up in the lua file, green strip for runway 25L, and the localiser needle is on the correct side . Same modification works for Hannover and Hamburg where both runways ILS works fine.

     So I think the issue comes from the core file that give the Beacons.lua file, because with corrected frequencies, the issue remains. 

    It tried to harmonise the frequencies, but it doesn't work at all. The issue remains.

    Here a video from the bug on runway 25R, and as told, it's the original beacons lua file. The Loc needle is on the wrong side.

    And the runway 25L ILS approach with a correct ILS needles indication, as I "activated" the runway 25L-07R in the lua file. 

     I hope you can figure out where the issue come from, as it's the only runway affected.

    By the way, thanks for your great work.

     

    If you want, I can make some screens from other airfields, so You can be sure of the relevance of my words. And maybe other pilots can confirm it too.

     

    FPS expectations?

    Are you flying solo on the map? Or with a lot of assets on it? In which resolution? 1920*1080 2K, 4K? Or maybe VR?

    My setup (R9 5900X, RX 7900 XTX 64Gb RAM DDR4) achieves between 60-300FPS depending on the location, weather and assets on the map. For example on Berlin with bad weather heavy rain) and 20 aircrafts in the zone, I have the lowest FPS (60)

    Yes, I can understand it. In fact, none of the french pack or the Charles de Gaulle (CDG), have evolved since a while. So if Currenthill have the time to make a great french pack with vehicles, and why not some special forces (with animation) like the commandos de marine (navy seals) and the foreign legion, and why not the CDG and maybe the Clemenceau /Foch, that would be a great pack that I would download directly.

    BAP100 BAT120 should only be carried on pylon 4

    in Bugs and Problems

    Posted

    Hi 

    I just tested the new weapons and noticed that they could be carried on pylon 3, 4, 5. But IRL in France they were only on the pylon 4, which has been confirmed by people who worked on the F1. 

    And as a wish they should be available on the Mirage F1 CT. I'm waiting for more informations if the CR had used them. As soon as I have the information, I will share it.

    Il y a déjà le french pack avec pas mal de véhicules, et pour les hélicos, il y a Damien qui en a fait. Certes ils ne sont pas parfaits (les hélicos), mais ont le mérite d'exister.

    There's already the French pack with quite a few vehicles, and for the helicopters, Damien made some. They're certainly not perfect (the helis), but they have the merit of existing.

    aoa light and altitude difference display

    in Controller Questions and Bugs

    Posted · Edited by grim_reaper68

    Hi

    By turning the knob located just over the AOA indicator. For the altitude difference display, it depends. For the EE, it's located under the scope, on the right of the IDN,at the place of the RWR panel from the CE, it's the upper left knob marked EC. For the CE and BE, on the right console below the weapon panel, you have 5 rotators, the first on the left named EC.

    cold start carrier with wind, wingtips contrails and Corsair moving back on the deck.

    in Bugs and Problems

    Hi

    I noticed that while the carrier was moving and with a wind at 20kts coming direct from front and the Corsair staying on thedeck,  wingtips contrails will appear  at 19kts TAS and it begins to move backwards at 25kts TAS. Maybe the moving back is correct and brakes should be applied. But the contrails appeared at the spread wings position, but in my case they were folded.

    Hi 

    I wonder where did you see the BAP100 in the weapons lua file? There is the JL100, and the JL100 is a combined fuel tank / rocket launcher, and was used on the Mirage III/V, and maybe on the F1 in some countries.

    Hi just solved it, I had in the Saved Games folder DCS and DCS.Openbeta folder. Strangely DCS goes over to the Saved games DCS folder. I just moved the liveries folder from the openbeta one to the DCS, and everything goes fine.
