Shahdoh Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 Is there a radar in DCS in which has a minimum altitude of detection(not including terrain masking). I am trying to create a custom radar site (WWII) and having troubles setting a minimum altitude of detection and looking for an example radar to work off of. Looking to be able to set the vertical range angles, top and bottom. Thank you
Wrecking Crew Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 Not that I am aware of. Here's an idea from my work on HAWK HIPIRs AN/MPQ-46 -- these are the Micky Mouse Ears radar that sends a beam to the target that the missile uses the reflection to guide to the target. These radar antenna track 360° azimuth and ~80° elevation to follow the target. LOL I don't know if this radar actually tracks the target in DCS,,, but anyway, there would have to be limits built into its elevation range. Visit the Hollo Pointe DCS World server -- an open server with a variety of COOP & H2H missions including Combined Arms. All released missions are available for free download, modification and public hosting, from my Wrecking Crew Projects site.
Shahdoh Posted August 12, 2016 Author Posted August 12, 2016 Thanks WC, Yeah, I have seen settings in the lua files that indicate this functionality, but when I make changes to them, nothing seems to change in game. The only thing I have been able to change has been the max range. I am hoping someone with a better understanding of the settings or knows of a specific radar "that you can get under" can help me sort this out. /Salute
