FLANKERATOR Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) SATAC stands for Squadron Air to Air Championship; this will be the second edition after 2013, which saw the triumph of the 51st PVO Regiment over NFI in a thrilling final match on a score of 2 rounds to 1. Date will be Saturday 17th of September and Sunday 18th of September. Depending on number of teams, we could also use a second weekend to wrap it up (24th and 25th of September). This a pure A2A competition opposing squadrons. Format will be 6v6. Reserves are strongly recommended to avoid going in outnumbered if any no shows. Depending on how many teams will sign up, this tournament will run either on a best of 3 rounds double elimination or best of 5 rounds single Elimination. Even though it is a squadron based event, we also want to welcome lone wolves who can sign up to team up together. This event will count for the SA-SIM's air-to-air rankings. We look forward to seeing many DCS squadrons as well as lone wolves stepping up to the plate to make the most out of what we hope will be a great competition and a great opportunity to train and fight against some of the best DCS fighter squadrons. All modules not suffering from severe glitches are allowed although given the nature of this competition, it would be foolish to fly anything but the Su-27 or the F-15. Here is a promo video put together in 2015 as this is when SATAC 2 had been planned for initially before getting postponed. Now all lights are green, so let's bring it on! To register, please post in this thread: - Squadron Name - Squadron website link - Pilot Names - Aircraft selected Sign up deadline is September 10th.

Breakshot Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) The 51st PVO Regiment are reporting in with a full roster of pilots to defend our title! Flying strictly Su-27S. This time we are putting up only 1 "A" team, with pilots rotating in-out to meet the mission requirements. Up to 8v8 might be possible on some match dates (should both squads agree). Confirmed Roster as of 19 Aug: Breakshot X-Man Frostie Teknetinium Rage Holimoli Chimanov Seetricks And possibly more to make a return or fresh appearance... Looking forward to the event! S!

Thanks for the sign ups so far guys. Yes, having different aircraft within the same team is allowed. SATAC first round matches kick off at 1800z so all will be done before Ramsey's event kicks off at 22:30z.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Hope the missiles proximity fuze will be repaired before the event, in the past blue flag the shot downs were only scored with direct missile hit, meanwhile I was shot down several times by Matra 530D exploding at 450 meters away! maybe a desync or maybe a bug the problems are still there in the latest version oS2s_59EIAA Edited September 14, 2016 by JunMcKill Added Content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLANKERATOR Posted August 20, 2016 Author Share Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) I dont think Tacview is always accurate when it comes to flight paths. The fetched logs are usualy accurate but Tacview has sometimes to guess estimate and extrapolate flight paths to stay consistent with the logs. What you see in Tacview has sometimes to be taken with a pinch of salt. Moreover, missiles is dcs will always be subject to controversy so I'd say let's go with what we have, otherwise the wait could just never end :) Edited August 20, 2016 by FLANKERATOR Situational Awareness: https://sa-sim.com/ | The Air Combat Dojo: https://discord.gg/Rz77eFj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweep Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Basically whats happening in game right now is that any maneuvering is being smoothed out because, AFAIK, of the netcode's anti-warping provisions. BFM/ACM is darn near impossible right now, Archers will, this is no Bravo Sierra, fly right through my canopy and not detonate because on the other guy's screen I'm somewhere else. Think BFM again, I see the bandit in my control zone, with his nose about 25 degrees aft...Then I see him shooting, with his nose STILL 25 degrees aft...Yet on his screen he's pulling lead for a tracking shot that I can't see. SATAC's gonna be real interesting... :D Oh, also, somewhat related, guns don't work well either. It would appear that sensor-cued gunsights don't track in the vertical - I don't know specifics, but I know my bullets pass aft more often than not when the bandit's going up or down.

Agree, I think that to avoid desync will have to limit client ping to 150 - 200 ms and not more than 30 players. In case of SATAC is more easy, because there are no ground forces, in this scenario all comms are only from aircrafts and missiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The track will then be correct for that player but may wary on the other units. If you set up the server to record tacview track it is precise for all players. Check TAW's tacview public storage which is tacview and tracks directly form the server after the round is played. I also believe the new version 1.5.0 of tacview have increased the precision on tracking. And best of all if you need to prevent users from recording their own track and "cheat", you can do and the server will still record tacview file! :) Edited August 24, 2016 by HiJack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweep this problem can be temporarily solved by using the old netcode. Make a file autoexec.cfg into your users/username/saved games/dcs/config folder and add there a line "net.use_new_fm = false". This way you can at least practice BFM while ED tries to fix what they broke :) 2 http://www.104thphoenix.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can upload the video or the R-27ET dissapearing in air if you want, in the track is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually just flew a couple of flights on the server with the old code... and I did see warping of others. So I think it only affects how things look from your own perspective. http://www.104thphoenix.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from mobile Android via Tapatalk Yeah it seems to affect your own perspective only.. probably doesn't affect how others see things. Brings back the warpings at least. However I don't know what the effect of serverside setting of this is.. I mean if server also needs to set old code for things to completely work the old way, or if it is enough that a client has this setting.
