It limits the plane's AoA regime according to loadout. In a nutshell: CAT I is clean A2A, where CAT III is A2G ordnance loaded.
-
Really, even with Curve 0 it behaves way different than other planes on curve 0. I know, that the Viper does a few things different to begin with, but the common denominator that a lot of people here experience, in that roll input first does basically nothing and then suddenly ALL AT ONCE at one point hints to an actual problm IMHO.
-
CAT I / III is already implemented.
-
At least I am not alone in that feeling - I have most of the modules, and they ALL feel similar with regards to curve and the roll axis specifically, only differing in the various roll rates according to the airframe. The Viper not so much, and reading all your comments it feels like theres something not quite right.

2 months since TGP release and today's OB was...
Shimmergloom667 replied to Hawkeye_UK's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
The last announcement on TWS e.g. was 8 days ago, acknowledging that it will come out shortly after Viper's release for both Hornet and Viper, which makes sense given the high commonality of the underlying systems. -

No one is holding you from criticizing them, it's just that there's people like me, who see things differently. And I want ED to know that people like me are out there, just like you want to make clear that there's criticism. In the end they have to weigh these opinions and form a plan accordingly. -
TMS down is always "Target reject", so: TMS down.

GUN - is there any radar lock instead of EEGS funnel?
Shimmergloom667 replied to Bloody's topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
Actually, your question has been answered - yes, there will be radar tracking for the gun, the EEGS funnel should have a BATR dot when locked, also LCOS mode should come, too. -
I know about how it works, it's just: it works a lot differently in the Viper for me. As if it had some inbuilt curve, and I'm not the only one noticing it, with regards to roll specifically. Curves as high as you set don't work for me, but that's a matter of preference anyway.
-
That's the thing: I could drop my curve, but with all other modules the same curve behaves different than in the Viper specifically (not in roll rate of the plane, that is to be expected, but in how the stick deflection progresses) - I would like to know if that maybe is WIP.
-
Hey guys. VKB Gunfighter MK. II / MCG Pro user here. I have a slight curve on my axes in all modules (curve 10, usually), so I set up the Viper the same way. I don't have issues with pitch axis, but roll axis feels unusually slow or, shall we say: wonky, like a messed up curve. When I deflect the stick, roll responds VERY SLOWLY until I near full deflection and suddenly ALL AT ONCE. Control indicator shows stick movement as I would expect, plane response is slow though. Any clues on if that is correct as-is? (No, CAT I / III shouldn't impact roll rate, in case anyone would suggest that)

No need to yell. Known issue, already reported, see bugs forum.

TMS - up bugs target, another up locks in STT. Down undesignates.

TGP - steer view to way-/targetpoint?
Shimmergloom667 replied to Destinate's topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
Usually in the F-16, the TGP is slaved to the SPI, which in turn is by default the active STPT. Normally, TMS down commands a return from a point / area track back to being slaved to the SPI. -

Magic ammo best ammo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -

Shimmergloom667 replied to Hawkeye_UK's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Dude, for what has been released yesterday it is actually pretty fine. Over the summer there has been no update where the Hornet DIDN'T get new features or bugs fixed. Probably not as much as you would like and maybe not the bugs you deem important, but stating otherwise is factually incorrect. As a Hornet customer, I'm 100% chill with that. They never promised a date for the module to be finished, and if EA takes 3 years I'm fine with that. YMMV. -

You know, you could load tracer ammo, instead of the standard loadout of SAPHEI w/o tracer... just a suggestion. That said: I also disagree with the OP - while the Hornet development sure slowed down a bit, they announced that clearly and openly months ago, since we now have a lot of bigger, more complicated systems to toggle. In the end we will benefit from the Viper in this regard, too, since a lot of development between those will go hand in hand. As announced, TWS will be in shortly, e.g., for both modules. -
Wow, it's almost as if this was day 1 of early access and is WIP

[NO BUG] Axis for TGP movement?
Shimmergloom667 replied to Shimmergloom667's topic in Bugs and Problems
Hey Nineline! Thanks for the heads-up - can you share an insight on how you use the TGP without bombs loaded, then? ***EDIT*** Now I get it, even with an INV of 0, it just needs to be CCRP. Gotcha! :) -
[NO BUG] Axis for TGP movement?
Shimmergloom667 replied to Shimmergloom667's topic in Bugs and Problems
Okay? Is that true to RL? That doesn't make a lot of sense, does it? -
So, I got RDR CURSOR Switch X and Y axis bound, and radar TDC slews nicely. TGP won't move one bit though (of course I checked SOI in both cases). Am I forgetting something, or does that need a different binding? Is there an axis for it? I got an image alright, but not movement. Thanks! :)

We won't get the CBU-97, IRL USN / USMC Hornet didn't carry it.

Cockpit red and white lights gone after last update
Shimmergloom667 replied to Skopikus's topic in MiG-21Bis
There was none, yesterday. The last stable patch was September, 10th. -
Hey Chuck, thanks for the update! Say, do you think it's possible that the latest version of your various guides could be posted on the guide-section frontpage on mudspike, so one can see at a glance which ones have changed and could use downloading? Just a minor thing. :)
