asla36 Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 probably not priority right now due to core systems implementation but i do hope the interior cockpit gets a bump in textures/ lighting. Dare i say the exterior model looks better. Oh no you don't! If we let the texture artists get a hold of this, we will have infinite re-do's! :D Though the greater the end result, the better! You guys are doing an awesome job. DCS: MiG-23 [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC] Make it happen, and take my money! :D

Dare i say the exterior model looks better. I would prefer an early access with the current textures over any pretty eye-candy... If you need to keep the textur artists occupied, make an overhaul or update AFTER early access. :D 1 Shagrat - Flying Sims since 1984 - Win 11 | Ryzen 9 7900X3D | 64GB | GeForce RTX 4090 - Asus VG34VQL1B | TrackIR5 | Simshaker & Jetseat | VPForce Rhino Base & VIRPIL T50 CM2 Stick on 200mm curved extension | VIRPIL T50 CM2 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Plus/Apache64 Grip | MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals | WW Top Gun MIP | a hand made AHCP | 2x Elgato StreamDeck (Buttons galore)

Dudikoff Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 DMT reenters into VIDEO mode as soon as the camera is within gimbal limits. Since ARBS saved the target position, lock is resumed without pilot interaction.[/i] Do you have any data or feedback on how precise this was?

That is called "sweetening" the lock.

amalahama Posted June 27, 2017 Posted June 27, 2017 Hi! Does AV-8B N/A have some sort of datalink? Like Link16, JTIDS or such? Regards!
Dudikoff Posted June 27, 2017 Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Yes. You can always make adjustments to the lock with the TDC. That is called "sweetening" the lock. Sorry, I didn't quite understand. So, there is some error introduced in RL, but do you intend to simulate it in the sim? E.g. if I make a lock on a target and decide to do another pass at a target from the opposite direction. Will the target be locked directly or I'd have to adjust the sights slightly? I think DCS supports ground stabilized sensors, so I presume it would be a matter of adding some offset to its last position depending on the time passed and ARBS tracking error specs?

I think DCS supports ground stabilized sensors, so I presume it would be a matter of adding some offset to its last position depending on the time passed and ARBS tracking error specs? No error. It is that SOP for DMT lock is as follows: 1. You fly towards your target. 2. You set the VVM over your target. 3. Press the LOCK button. System will lock the geographical position of your target. But since you are doing it from long distance, there will be an error over what you thought the target is vs. to where it really is. Even if you use DMT, the zoom factor makes it a bit difficult, so the lock spot many times will be off target by a small value. 4. If the lock spot is off target, you use TDC to move the spot where the target is. That's it. Of course, you can also use the TDC to select the target from the DMT without having to point the aircraft towards it. But that is not the recommended practice. Why? Probably because it distracts you from flying the aircraft and can create a target fixation problem, specially if you are attacking heavily defended targets. The recommended way, you get a quick target lock and can update position as required by using TDC and HUD. You don't need the DMT video but it can be used for fine tuning the lock with a quick glance. No need to go heads down. 2 "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.

But since you are doing it from long distance, there will be an error over what you thought the target is vs. to where it really is. I'm referring to what you mentioned earlier how the ARBS system will remember the locked position while its out of the DMT gimbals. Since the ARBS system relies on inertial sensor to keep track of this position (rather than e.g. GPS), I presume a positional offset is introduced into this the longer you keep the aircraft away from the DMT gimbals and maneuvering. So, I was initially asking if you have any data or pilot's feedback how noticeable this offset might be? i386DX40@42 MHz w/i387 CP, 4 MB RAM (8*512 kB), Trident 8900C 1 MB w/16-bit RAMDAC ISA, Quantum 340 MB UDMA33, SB 16, DOS 6.22 w/QEMM + Win3.11CE, Quickshot 1btn 2axis, Numpad as hat. 2 FPH on a good day, 1 FPH avg.

Koriel Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 (edited) I am wondering how far along development is on the Harrier when compared to the Mirage when it was released in early access. I have a feeling that system implementation on the Harrier is further along when compared to the Mirage. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Edited July 12, 2017 by Koriel
