Test Flight - F-5E Tiger II Video Series

[Bunyap]

Here is the first of several videos documenting the process I used to learn the DCS: F-5E. This is an in depth look at the aircraft systems, how to operate them, and how to employ them during missions. These are intended for new players who are new to the F-5 and DCS: World and not sure where to start but I go into enough depth that experienced players can enjoy them as well.

Bunyap, you are the man

 

Can I ask how you capture your Rift footage? My Shadowplay capture also gets my desktop in the background

Very nice indeed.. the quality is just awesome, also 60fps is very cool, I can't wait to watch the part 2!

[Bunyap]

Ramsey, I use keyboard alt-enter to make it full screen then scale it horizontally as I edit the video so it looks normal again.

 

Thanks Vitormouraa, part 2 is up. :)

Great stuff Bunyap. I will be following your F-5E videos with keen interest as I seek to explore and learn this aircraft. I enjoyed greatly your old series on the Rook SU-25 and I am sure it will be even better with this series. Thank you for your invaluable work. I can sense your enjoyment and passion for aviation in your voice audio. Also thank you for not using any harsh language so my 5 year old son can also watch. Finally my 91 year old grandpa who was a navigator in a Mosquito bomber during WW2 also loves to watch your vids.

Very nice videos!

Solution: Check out the SimShaker project ;)

BunYap can you share your settings in DCS, the VR and Video settings.

[Konovalov]

Video number 3 is up covering walk around and startup. The walk around with the oculus rift is a fantastic advertisement for VR. Great work Bunyap and highly insightful as always.

#3 is now posted above.

 

Thanks a lot Konovalov & f4l0.

 

Fab, I just used the "VR" button at the bottom of the settings screen and took whatever those settings were. Years ago I would spend a lot of time tweaking and checking framerates but I have grown to despise that whole process.

Great videos! Thank you! :)

and did you use Rift or TrackIR ?

Vampire, I used LCtrl-F11 to get the view and the mouse/mouse wheel to move around. It is fine as long as you keep level and use your head, not the mouse, to look up or down. Otherwise it can be... disorienting. :)

Excellent videos once again, Bunyap.

 

Am I mistaken, or have you cropped the OR videos a little from top and bottom?

[Bunyap]

 

Thanks man. Yeah, I brought the view in to fill the frame a little more. Folks complained about the normal view as folks sometimes do.

I think it's a great idea as the sharpest focal point of the OR lenses is right in the middle, and I think that people usually tend to use much less peripheral vision or move their eyes from the centre line with OR than IRL, so you probably don't loose much cropping the extremes.

 

I might steal that idea ;)
