    Curves for Warthog AB detent?

    in DCS: F-4E Phantom

    Posted

    You don't have to use a curve on it.  Look in the SPECIAL tab config page for the F4, there is a slider to set the AB detent position.  For my Warthog, a setting of 74 is on the money.
    That's what I was looking for, ty!

    Vietnam War, Cold War units

    in DCS Core Wish List

    Posted

    With the F-4 launching, and a lot of emphasis being put on the Vietnam War and the Cold War era, I'd like to see troops from that era. U.S. Soldiers in their respective uniforms carrying M-16 or M-60 weapons. North Vietnamese troops carrying AK-47's. Russian troops in era correct uniforms, Middle-East, you name it. It's a bit hard to make proper missions when your choices are WW2 or Modern troops, and an "Insurgent".

    New Pay Model / subscription discussion

    in DCS Core Wish List

    Posted

    Chatting on Discord just now, and felt like bringing it up here to the devs.

     

    ED is developing 3 modules right now, that we know of, plus many more in EA. Meanwhile QOL things are falling behind. Things like, drogue basket behavior, AI models that look old, AI behavior to incoming missiles, and AI behavior overall. ATC, and so on, and so forth.

     

    It seems like, I could be wrong, that ED is focusing much harder on building modules to sell, than maintaining/improving the world those modules live in.

     

    I can only speak for myself, but I'd gladly pay a subscription fee, let's say $15 a month, for ED not having to build modules, or less modules, and can direct all, or most of their devs to said above QOL improvements.

     

    The model I'd use would be similar to World of Warcraft.

     

    $15 monthly for the base game, for ED to maintain and improve the world we fly in. Focusing most if not all devs to upgrade AI, ATC, AI models, things like drogue physics, weather, updating old modules, and so on.

     

    3rd parties bring their modules as normal, for their normal prices, and will be viewed as expansions, i.e. The Tomcat is The Burning Crusade, The Phantom is Wrath of the Lich King, etc.

     

    Having all these modules coming out is great, and I'm looking forward to a lot of them, but the world we use them in has to be kept up as well, past adding terrains.

     

    Anyway, my 2 cents.

    New landing gear dynamic

    in Bugs and Problems

    Posted

    Seems to be too sensitive for a plane that can take off and land from a grassy field. I'd think it be more sturdy than that. My wingman had a broken tail wheel, and I had a stuck main gear strut. And we did nothing crazy. ecfd9901dfd0effdffed41d84291f037.jpg

    Can't launch with bin-mt

    in Installation Problems

    Posted

    Are you using an anti-virus?  Since this seems like an issue that occurred on update I'd look there first.  McAfee specifically has been causing a bunch of people issues with this update.
    I did a slow repair, that fixed it.

    VOIP and SRS communication

    in Voice Chat

    Posted

    SRS is not ED software and it is not possible to "absorb" 
    We do have more features coming in the future for voice chat 
    That's good to hear. I like the VOIP a lot. Especially how it makes the Warbird radios sounds authentic. But it's annoying I can't hear half the server because they're on SRS. It sounds mean, and I don't want it to be, but since VOIP is getting up there in functionality, maybe force people on VOIP?

    VOIP and SRS communication

    in Voice Chat

    Posted

    The new VOIP by ED has 2 modes, one is room mode and radio/channel mode (i might be remembering the name wrong).


    Room mode is what you ask for, everyone on the samecoalition will communicate as if they were in the same frequency.

    On the second mode OTOH you need to individually select the correct frequency to hear other players using the module radios to tune the proper channel, or change freq as needed for other comms (eg. tankers, Magic, OCAs, strykers....), but obviously you need some previous coordination to define those frequencies.

    No I'm asking that a user using VOIP on 253.000 can talk to an SRS user on 253.000

    F-14D possibly?

    in DCS: F-14A & B

    Posted


    But Cobra specifically stated F-4 features would be back ported to the F-14 in the screenshot further up… I’m not saying everything shiny and new will be ported but certainly not nothing.
    I didn't say nothing, I said "certain features" I asked about. Wing vapor, yes that's coming. Circuit breakers aren't, because the Tomcat isn't modeled like that.

    I'm pretty sure the current model is still more than fine, both external and cockpit. Of course new panels and instruments plus more shaky things would need to be added and some corrections on external model. Not implying it should be cheap or included in A/B module though.
    I asked the devs if certain features of the Phantom would come to the Tomcat, and long story short, the Tomcat model doesn't allow for it. It's a completely different process. And since the new Tomcat model would be a seperate module for full price, I expect HB themselves would want nothing less than a plane simulation equally as impressive as the Phantom. The Phantom is the new standard in DCS, and I expect they themselves would want nothing less than that for the next gen Tomcat.

    Probable F-4E Social Media Backlash

    in DCS: F-4E Phantom

    Posted

    I love watching guys like "Slammer" Richardson and "Nasty" Menazzer interviews. Guys who really know how to fly an aircraft like the Tomcat. Down to earth guys who I'd love to buy a beer. I wouldn't buy Mover a free cup of water.
    When you watch a show like the Tomcast you get a whole different vibe. Guys who loved their aircraft and the people that made her fly.

    Super weird scenario

    in Voice Chat

    Posted

    Tomcat 1, Hornet 1, Hornet 2, flying in formation.

     

    Tomcat 1 could transmit and receive Hornet 1.

     

    Hornet 1 could transmit and receive Hornet 2.

     

    Tomcat 1 could NOT transmit and receive Hornet 2.

     

    Hornet 1 could transmit and receive everyone, Tomcat 1 and Hornet 2 couldn't.

     

    Weird thing was, Tomcat 1 and Hornet 2 could see each other keying up, and hear the mic click, but no voice was heard.

    Uncontrolled Client Aircraft

    in DCS Core Wish List

    Posted

    I'm sure it's been asked before, but it bears repeating. ED could you make it so uncontrolled client aircraft show up on the tarmac and deck? So when you spawn into a fresh server, or a low populated one, airfields and carriers look alive with planes parked everywhere.

    Phantom Campaigns

    in DCS: F-4E Phantom

    Posted

    Please make all the upcoming Phantom campaigns FWAF (Fly With A Friend) capable.

    A lot of warbird missions are, and it would just add so much to fly a campaign with a human RIO/WSO.
