  1. What is the planned release date, within the reasonable, 2 weeks! I mean an expected one as everything is subject to change, October, November (2025)??
  2. Thats how I look at games, go to the Cinema, I dont know what price it is across the globe but probably $20 here in Aus, for max 2 hours. Plus you only get to see it once and you dont get your money back if it is absolutely trash. Although I dont use Steam for DCS, I do refund mis-sold garbage elsewhere. Dont think I have once regretted a DCS Module, I may not use them but thats my issue, possibly done less than 10 hours in the Mirage for example, but dont regret buying it.
  3. Has anyone come up with a better mount for the Track_IR sensor? I really dont like the magnet and 3 little feet but cant think of something better!

    C-130J

    Is anyone planning on a C-130J cockpit? I assume (rightly or wrongly) the DCS version compared to others with its military use in game (sooner or later - thinking dynamic campaign) and in my opinion a more accurate sim than any others despite their huge backing, a lot of people will move over from Civ sims where you can see in the Home Cockpits full 747/A-300 types are built. I cannot wait to see the community here grow and some of the outstanding advancements of big desktops! Thoughts?
  5. Looks like new "hotas" type controllers will be on the purchase list, sure the old Thrusmaster Warthog will be fine for a while but if I get into this like I want to, I may be spending some $$$
  6. Been out of loop on Afghanistan and bought the whole map on launch day, is it complete now? ISTR it was sold in 3 or 4 sections but I bought the whole, thinking this could be the largest map which I aim to use to get back into DCS after a hiatus with the C-130J.
  7. Fair enough, i don’t think you are wrong, i was more on about learning to program every weapon on the F-16 (for example) or landing an F-18 in proper carrier patterns on top of weapons and navigation, now dont get me wrong, I wouldn’t change it or fly a dumbed down version, I might pick up those jets again if the dynamic campaign works well but I can’t fly often enough to join a server and be proficient so it’s SP only for me.
  8. I am the same, I am getting a bit overrun with all the complexities of the jets, take my hat off to the pilots but to be honest they dont spend 8 hours a day writing contracts then try and learn to fly in their spare time. I actually wanted a module like this in DCS because I dont like MSFS, it never seems right. The DCS World always feels authentic and whilst I dont doubt this will be a complex beast looking at the cockpits, MFDs and those Data Input panels the A-10 has (sorry forgot the name MCDU??) I like the idea of learning to fly a Herc, my mate was a Loady on the C-130 and he always used to say "low and slow is the only way to go" spending 6 hours plus transiting from the UK to Cyprus or wherever I didnt agree with him!
  9. Perfect, nice work!
  10. Hasnt this been asked and told repeatedly its a Steam issue, they dont do pre-order?
  11. Your garage looks high enough, the door is the problem! Sounds like a good idea to have the roof removed, wouldn’t want all the avionics outside when finished. is the plan to enclose it then? Did the sim originally have a roof and walls, windows??
  12. Wow what a difference, looks good! why are the frames different around where the door would be (one tube one bar, egress assistance?
  13. Just a note on that file, I printed the first one to test it and it might be flex or my poor design but the screen easily slides in the top but not at the bottom so I will need to cut some off it. Also, its nice and sturdy, but used a 3/4 full vat of resin just for the left MFD, part 1 of 4, might be able to hollow it but I think the weight will hold it as a free supported desktop. I also added some steps to glue them together but still need to put holes in for the usb and power cables from the MFD and Screen. Small update here but note its NOT got holes for usb and I have NOT increased the gap for the screen to slide in. Cheap screen I have is a BNZTRUK USB 3 from ebay. RHGS for printing.stl Right MFD.stl LHGS for printing.stl Left MFD.stl
  14. Wow, not seen anything like this since that member put a Tornado in his unused indoor pool, but then stopped posting. Will be an epic build, thank you for posting, will keep watching!
  15. Hey I am working on this, I am very green to Fusion and 3d. My idea is to create this that a basic USB3 ebay monitor slides into, monitor I have is about 27cm by 19.5cm but thats irrelevent right now. Its printed in 4 parts but I am yet to join then for gluing but thought I would share my weekends work anyway, if anyone is interested and wants to improve or make changes, please share them. I thought I might be able to reduce the center 'gap' and make the screen capable of doing the right hand instruments but doubt that will work with the angle of the screen, also room for a small RWR and the screen for the F-16 UFC, maybe the right hand panel could fit a Frankenstein UFC in a workable position? But just something to add, Autodesk Fusion free. Thank you. Left Hand Glare Sheild v29.f3d
