I noticed that trim also has something to do with it. If I have problems with salute, trimming down and launching with idle power works.

How often do you use the parking brake on flight? Not a biggie to use mouse and click once.

I just wonder how it is hard for some people to use the throttle and listen it. It's pretty easy to use just by listeting or looking at the gauges.

I love absolutely all the details but those afterburner shock diamonds look absolutely horrible. Just simple orange stream always instead of blueish color with circles are missing completely.

Where? In DCS?

What kind of axis tune's user curve or what settings do you use for X56? I think the controls are bit too sensitive (pitch and roll) by default on my X55 which is basically the same as yours.

I'm lost. Where should I do this? In game or in windows on some folder?!

:pilotfly:

It's updating!

Are we there yet... :crash:

Indeed. Afterburners shock diamonds still very look poor compared to everything else which is insanely detailed.

Yes...? You can see behind. Like Victory205 mentioned, they are entirely for other purposes.

You know you still can see what's on your six, despite seeing the pilot too?

I'm serious. Just look at HB's previous work, Viggen which also has same kind of simple textured afterburner with yellow and orange texture. It's way too short even in darker light conditions and missing those "circles" in flames that can be seen in so many fighter pictures, videos etc. And I've seen lots of airshows over the past 20 years so I know what i'm talking about. I also spent one year of my mandatory military service in air force watching Hornets so don't give me that crap about our eyes seeing this and that and cameras doing that.

Someone at Heatblur should really see this and compare the footage with their product and think that does their F-14 afterburner effects look like properly done. ;) Seriously, they need to be remade and look like that. What's the point to make super realistic model with bells and whistles and leave one of the most visually stunning aspect in so poor state?

I think it's rubbish to spend money on developing this kind of simplified simulation instead of focusing on DCS and fixing problems on it.

Those afterburners still look like they are only on half thrust, not zone 5.

It is Groom Lake AFB.

I can't disagree but even those modules that I mentioned look better than current F-14 afterburner effects.

DCS Hornet looks good enough, so does F-15 and Flanker for example, compared to current F-14 footage.

Thank god someone else think those afterburners look weak. They are way too weak and missing those circles. I watched Heatblur Viggen footage and it look just as weak with poor afterburner. I hope they really improve those since those do suck big time.

I absolutely love F-14 and now that it's finally coming is like dream come true. But does anyone else find those afterburner textures and effects kind of cheap? I mean, they look simple and kinda boring flames just shooting from the back pulsating, compared to videos and pictures that there are.

Hello, newbie here. I know this was discussed here earlier and that topic looks like its locked now. But I don't get any kind of wingtip vortex. I tried different weather settings in mission editor and still no luck. I'm not talking about leading edge trails since those show just fine. Are there suppose to even be wingtip trails or are they still under work?
