Flexman_UK Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Cheers. This is a fabulous contribution to the Lockon community. This our hobby - not our job - if we are not having a laugh, we're doing it wrong. - Rats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGTharos Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Vyrtuoz, more instructions are needed for adding these objects ... are the folders supposed to have a specific name, are the acmi files supposed to be placed anywhere special etc?

51GRIZZLY Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 You did a great job there especially the Cockpitview mode is Cooool :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S77th-ReOrdain Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Great ongoing project. Agree with GreyGhost here. Even though the directory setup is easy enough, it would be nice to give users a sample .xml file for the construction of custom static objects. Your example seems straightforward, but I'm having issues entering latitude and longitude info for placement. Your screenshot shows the creation of an airport.xml and tutorial.xml placed in the demo folder. Any way to include those or a threat range example as illustrated in your screenshots for users to have a base to work from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperKungFu Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Are there any plans out there for tacView to make the terrian more accurate? For example when I'm flying really low, the tacview shows that I'm running into the ground. Also, i don't recall tacview ever showing other weapons besides air to air missile, for example bombs, guns, rockets...can we see those in the future? Note: i haven't tried the new version yet 0.84, I'll look into it next week but was any of these feature added into the new one?
