Mt5_Roie Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 I think the issue is that there is lack of FFB joystick maker out there. Really the two choices are Logitech 940 (which is 500 bucks so it aint cheap) and the Microsoft Sidewinder, which isn't even sold anymore so you have to buy used. It just happens that in heli's the FFB works really nicely and there are more users of it. But again, it depends on getting one of those joysticks in order to code and test.

Cowboy10uk Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 He absolutely loved it. Especially the fact that it is so well modeled. There were 5 or 6 Gaz pilot behind the screen as he was flying, they were really impressed. He just was kind enough to point all the little details he found out to be wrong during the try. As we speak, we are working hard on correcting them. That is fantastic news Thankyou, not that I had any doubt. Only problem now is, I can't blame the model for my bad flying. ;) Cowboy10uk [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Fighter pilots make movies, Attack pilots make history, Helicopter pilots make heros. :pilotfly: Corsair 570x Crystal Case, Intel 8700K O/clocked to 4.8ghz, 32GB Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4 3200 MHZ Ram, 2 x 1TB M2 drives, 2 x 4TB Hard Drives, Nvidia EVGA GTX 1080ti FTW, Maximus x Hero MB, H150i Cooler, 6 x Corsair LL120 RGB Fans And a bloody awful Pilot :doh:

j0nx Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Is this module coming for steam 1.5 or was it already released and if so will the updated FM version get pushed to steam? I've been stuck in 2.0 for a while and not paying much attention to 1.5.

What about the Logitech Wingman Force 3d? Might not be as the 940 but worth the try for the price... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Rogue Trooper Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Now that's some proper testing. Just wondering if you can tell us, how he found it? I'm absolutely loving the challenge, and damn it has certainly improved my flying of the Huey, as I'm now used to making smaller inputs. Beautiful aircraft and module. Cowboy10uk +1 on that, a true challenge of a chopper, the weird thing is the more hours you put in the more "on rails" she flies. HP G2 Reverb (Needs upgrading), Windows 10 VR settings: IPD is 64.5mm, High image quality, G2 reset to 60Hz refresh rate. set to OpenXR, but Open XR tool kit disabled. DCS: Pixel Density 1.0, Forced IPD at 55 (perceived world size), DLSS setting is quality at 1.0. VR Driver system: I9-9900KS 5Ghz CPU. XI Hero motherboard and RTX 3090 graphics card, 64 gigs Ram, No OC... Everything needs upgrading in this system!. Vaicom user and what a superb freebie it is! Virpil Mongoose T50M3 base & Mongoose CM2 Grip (not set for dead stick), Virpil TCS collective with counterbalance kit (woof woof). Virpil Apache Grip (OMG). MFG pedals with damper upgrade. Total controls Apache MPDs set to virtual Reality height. Simshaker Jet Pro vibration seat.. Uses data from DCS not sound... goodbye VRS.
Cowboy10uk Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I'm assuming the patch that I installed today included the new FM changes, if so great job. No sliding forward and damn I could even lift her into the hover and do coordinated turns without diving out of the sky. :) Granted still ended up a flaming wreck, but that was down to myself having no skills whatsoever. ;) The gazelle was a joy to fly. Whatever updated today, made a huge difference.

0xDEADBEEF Posted June 2, 2016 Author Posted June 2, 2016 Did you update your 1.5.3? If so...your welcome. was there an update?? :huh:
golani79 Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 It's higher on our list of things to work on. I've been working on getting Microsoft Sidewinder with force feedback to test with. I've ordered two and as soon as when they arrive we can start working on it. So sooner rather then later...but probably with be a month or two. Nice to hear - really looking forward to this feature :) Think the Gazelle with FFB will be an even more joy to fly than it already is - keep up the good work guys! >> DCS liveries by golani79 <<

Let me know.
msalama Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 was there an update?? :huh: The openbeta was updated last Friday, but there's no difference in how she flys there (that I can tell at least). Was the stable (or alpha) branch Gazelle given a new FM, or did I misunderstand something? The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.
Cowboy10uk Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 Did you update your 1.5.3? If so...your welcome. Yes mate. 1.5.3. Not sure when it came out. Been stuck at work last 6 days, so been a good week since I turned it on.

Sadly back to work for another 6 days on Sat mate. Shifts are great in one respect but a pain in the behind if I want to arrange anything social. Will give you a shout next week and try and sort something out bud.

burnjp5 Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 Anything new or exciting coming out today for the gazelle?
BaD CrC Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 Apparently not. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
Mt5_Roie Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 Were busy testing I swear....I even made you guys a nice video: Apparently not. Coder - Oculus Rift Guy - Court Jester
Evilducky Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 Cool video. Why so much recoil on the rockets though?
ESAc_matador Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 Because Newton ;) Newton 3rd law is every accition has a proportional reaction in the oposite side... Now, tell me were the recoill is suposed to come from since rocket launchers are open in both extremes.;)
Mt5_Roie Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 We're working with ED to fix that. Its something we can't change on our side... Cool video. Why so much recoil on the rockets though? Coder - Oculus Rift Guy - Court Jester
BronzeYardNo11 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 Will there be different ammo types for that lovely 20mm gun? :D ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Give OH-6 ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
Flagrum Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 Will there be different ammo types for that lovely 20mm gun? :D And the same question goes for that rocket pod - will be different types of rocket warheads available?
Evilducky Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 We're working with ED to fix that. Its something we can't change on our side... Cool. I hope you can get that fixed. :D
