Shepski Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 1) he meant it will be nicely modeled 2) hearing where a threat is coming from and being able to react faster is a VERY good thing :) The Almaz system does not give voice threat warnings... it's an on board systems monitor.

jabog32_zillion Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 With the LOBS navigation system is it possible to enter waypoints into the Nav system from the cockpit? (could I complete part of a mission, return to base, re-arm, look at the map & re-programme a new route to a new set of objectives?) I'm really curious about that aswell... I'd love a manual Lat/Long input feature... actually that would be awesome for all flyables. Will it be possible to manually enter geographical coordinates with this KABRIS MFD Nav System ?

jabog32_zillion Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Dear ED devs, would it be possible to somehow export MFD instrument panel as well? HUD and other instruments are easily exportable now from Lomac but without MFD export there is no way how to build Ka-50 cockpit properly.. There is another method used for instance in Falcon4, EECH, and FS9 mods where they just copy the screenshot of the MFD panel from the video memmory and send it via lan to another computer, which will display it.. thanks I want to know this aswell...

Shepski Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Yes... you can program a new route with both the PVI-800 Navigation computer by entering Lat and Longs and have course guidance on the HUD or you can use the ABRIS to plot a new route on the moving map display. FYI... the English ABRIS pilot manual weighs in at 72 pages so far to give you an idea of the planned depth of that unit for Black Shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weta43 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 72 pages -I'm not sure if I should say cool - or shudder at the thought of it.. Thanks for the reply Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shepski Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Shudder! ;) Also... you will be able to change your loadout once you have landed at a FARP or base without having to exit the game so mission and task flexibility will be there in game.

Silent Warrior Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I have a feeling an earlier question of mine was diligently dodged. :P One about campaigns. Obviously you'll have one (or two?) in store for the Ka-50. Any new campaigns for other flyables? Did you do an overhaul of the older campaigns? 1.12-compliant SEAD-missions?

JJG43 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 I myself stick to choppers, not much into jets tho but I have tried the jets that EA offers.I liked the jets better in Desert Combat Final over BF2. I get the impression that people who use keyboard and mouse have real advantage over people who use a stick??? (Disagree or agree people)simple the response time is so much quicker with K&M. From the reading the past posts on this thread actual hardware you use would be I assume, 1) IRtracker 2) stick, which type and model ??:joystick: 3)speakers only or does everybody use headsets?? 4) CRT monitor instead of a LCD to prevent ghosting??

Please don't consider BF1 mods or BF2 as "a jet simulator". In a flight sim, you normally never use the mouse, always a (decent) stick (preferrably a HOTAS setup). Have you tried Lockon, IL2 ... ?

dynamocl Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 4) CRT monitor instead of a LCD to prevent ghosting?? Not heard of LCDs ghosting for years now. The technology since the first gen LCDs were released has increased a lot. As as stated before, don't think that since you are real l33t in BF2 chopper whoring playing with keyboard and mouse, that you will be able to fly a sim like that. BF2 can hardly be called a sim and cant be compared with lockon at all. I suggest getting a cheap version of lockon (cant cost much now) and see what we mean. After all I beleive you need the original version anyway if you plan to get BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team Glowing_Amraam Posted July 3, 2006 ED Team Share Posted July 3, 2006 I'm pretty skilled in the chopper in BF 2, and SOME of the manouvers can be pulled off in Black shark as well, but most of the times, this leads to a crash, unless you're very high :P What does work though, is circling your target and firing rockets and using the gun, weeee :D https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJRhtnqA-67pKmQ3A2GsgA ED youtube channel https://www.facebook.com/glowingamraam My facebook page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suntrace1 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I don't know if this was already been asked - will we be able to edit meinit file for choppers and fly them with the generic Ka-50 cockpit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team Glowing_Amraam Posted July 3, 2006 ED Team Share Posted July 3, 2006 Yes, you will be able to swap the ka-50 model, with the Cobra, etc. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJRhtnqA-67pKmQ3A2GsgA ED youtube channel https://www.facebook.com/glowingamraam My facebook page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JG27_Arklight Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 In a flight sim, you normally never use the mouse, always a (decent) stick (preferrably a HOTAS setup). I disagree. The FS series uses the mouse, and so would any other home "Simulator" that has a clickable cockpit. You may not use the mouse to fly, but you sure as heck use the mouse for other Sim essential functions. You'll always need at least a keyboard, and preferably a mouse (if the cockpit is clickable). Programming 350 keys into a HOTAS is not always the best for somebody. :) Ark ------------------ Windows 10 Pro x64 9900K @ 5ghz Gigabyte Aorus Master Z390 32GB G.Skill Trident Z RGB CAS 14 EVGA RTX 2080 Ti Ultra XC2 256gb Samsung 869 Pro (Boot Drive) 1TB - Samsung 970 EVO Plus Seasoninc 1000w Titanium Ultra PSU 34" ASUS PG348 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fufunka Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Since Black Shark project is focusing so much on realism which is great would it be also possible to have export of ABRIS panel as standalone output either directly to external monitor or via another networked computer as it is possible in Falcon4, FlightSimulator series (glass cockpit) etc.? For instance Sim meters are able now to connect glass cockpit gauges and HUD to Lockon series. So it seems to be possible and having helicopter sim pit without ABRIS makes no sense.. Thank you very much for giving it a thought.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banquo Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Hi everyone, Well I am waiting with anticipation for the relase of the Ka-50. Now I have to admit that my flight sim days have been limited so I can see a steep learning curve coming over the horizon. Especially having seen some of those great vids. The last time I touched a helicopter flight sim was back in the days of the Commodore 64 and the sim/game AH-64 Apache! So I thought, maybe I could read up whilst on the tube in the mornings to work and get myself a little familiar with things so at least I can get a head start. Does anyone know of any good sources/books/info that I could have a look at? Any help would be grateful Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaman Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Question. Can we still manage to fly back to homeplate with Ka-50 after we lost one of its two engines? 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
