    DCS: F-14 Development Update - AIM-54 Phoenix Improvements & Overhaul - Guided Discussion

    in DCS: F-14A & B

    Posted

    i recently watched a 2023 video from STT_Checklist a think playing as a RIO on GS server and they were able to hit players with Phoenix at 50-60 Nm, how did they manage to do so ?
    Fly fast, mach 0.9 or more, fly high, 35,000 feet or more, and have the radar in small target setting. Then after the launch it's all about how well they defend once the missile goes active.

    Adjustable mirrors

    The right mirror isn't always adjustable. Certain MP servers the right mirror doesn't have the adjust option. (MT) In single player it seems to work 100% just in certain servers it doesn't.

    It is topic about this already 
     
    Mine is different. My game works. Standalone with WMR. but ST uses SteamVR but MT turns it off, but the game launches. But I get flickers.

    When I start my Reverb G2 with WMR, Steam VR starts with it. Always worked fine with ST, But MT turns Steam VR off. I get a lot of flickers in the MT version.seems more in the right eye, which is also the one that's projected on my monitor.

    Heatblur surprise? Guess inside.

    We will have some nice surprises of long awaited items, but temper your expectations please: in the discord I was indeed referring to the fuel pylons.

    We shall see what else we might have put into the patch.

    To avoid disappointment though:

    - it is not the -D.
    - it is not a clean cockpit.
    - it is not the early A (yet).
    - it is not glove vanes. 


    -Orange Aardvark flight suit plus skin
    -B(U) upgrade (I wish but already know)
    -TARPS pod
    -brighter external lights
    -huffer carts
    -compartment panels
    -new helmets

    For future reference so you do not think we lie each time a patch date is missed or pushed back, the development of DCS is very complex, not just the things we at ED are doing but all the pieces from 3rd Party devs. This means unforeseen things can happen to cause delays. What would be worse is to push out a patch that causes part of the game to cause crashes or be unplayable. Know that when a patch is delayed it's for a good reason, not a lie. Thanks. 
    You should make a timeout for these people. "VFA-28 "The Sandy Vaginas" 28 representing their cycle.
    During which all their online skins show the Sandy Vagina livery, and their callsigns automatically change to "Karen".

    I'm reading it as that they're very close. If they weren't, they'd have said a week ago "we're not going to make it, two weeks!" But since they are close, maaaaaybe they're trying to push it to tomorrow or Friday but don't want to give a date just in case that falls through, and all the babies here go crying again about a missed date.

    Throttle idle button bind?

    in DCS: F-14A & B

    Posted

    Thanks guys, however, none of you have told me what its called? I have searched in the commands using "idle" & "throttle" and not found anything......
    I have the cut offs located and bound, which is great, can turn off the engines. I need a bind for "idle"....
     
    Thanks! 
    It's the same bind. It works from moving to idle to off, and off to idle.

    I do all those things you mentioned and lucky if i get 1 out 6 to hit anything or even go pitbull. Like i said in my last reply, it's to have people that actually help instead of looking down on someone for ranting...thanks for that
    So you read the first 4 words, and that's all you took from that? I literally went on to say how I made the same mistakes, and then how to fix those mistakes.

    try disabling the option in the special tab of the F-14 "go WVR automatically" or something like that. Jester is so broken when you have that option checked
    That's for STT locks. And that was for Sparrows.

    Throttle idle button bind?

    in DCS: F-14A & B

    Posted

    HI, I looked, but could not find a bind for throttle idle position....is it possible to do this with the Tomcat? I have a winwing F18 throttle and it has button positions for off ( which the Tomcat has) when you lift over the off detent, it then registers as idle. 
    I would like the same functionality for teh Tomcat, is it possible? 
     
    Thanks! 
    Yes it is. I use it all the time. As well as in the Viper.

    These Phoenix's are so frustrating. They hit like 1 out 6 shots if I'm lucky. Makes me not want to fly the plane anymore when i use to fly everyday. I think if the missiles performed in real life like they do in DCS, the Navy would've told Grumman to pound sand and not buy the F-14. Why waste a half a mill per missile if they can't hit anything....and here we go with the it's just you, you don't know what you're doing and so on replies
    Well, it IS you. Just like it was me. I had the same issues, and then I started to practice specifically on how I launch them. I followed my missiles in F6 view, and looked at what happened to the ones that missed. I started launching in much better parameters, like high altitude and speed, 10-15 degree nose up, etc. And the hit ratio went well up. And the ones that missed, missed barely because the enemy notched them for instance. You're never going to get 100% but my hit ratio went from 1 or none out of 4, to 3 out of 4 regularly, and occasionally 4 out of 4.

    Coincidentally this helps your Sparrow game too.
