RagnarDa Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) ** AJS-37 Changelog / Update Master List ** The real-life radar in Viggen is not tuned to make out individual buildings. From what has been described to us, you could make out Globen-sized buildings but nothing else. Ships on the other hand where clearly visible even on long ranges but that has more to do with the large contrast the ships make against the background water. You can see the shape and orientation of the ships in DCS:Viggen right now if you haven't noticed :) Edited June 29, 2017 by RagnarDa DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs.

Ships on the other hand where clearly visible even on long ranges but that has more to do with the large contrast the ships make against the background water. You can see the shape and orientation of the ships in DCS:Viggen right now if you haven't noticed :) You can actually see the shape of a ship on the Viggens radar? Like the Kuznetsov carrier in the picture above with it's small bow and broad stern? I thought the Viggen just shows a generic dot (or rectangle?) that varies in size and shape according to the ships' size and aspect (the dot is broader or smaller depending on front or side aspect), but doesn't show the actual ship shape?

You can see the shape and orientation of the ships in DCS:Viggen right now if you haven't noticed :) I agree real-life Viggen radar doesn't have the resolution of modern, digital radars, but still I would expect to see *something* when Las Vegas is in front of me. Maybe it can be done with your current implementation, I don't know, but using ED SDK sounds like a viable and bug-proof way, when it's available. Regards
Rudel_chw Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 .... here is a little list of some of the upcoming changes due to next update of DCS. - Radios implemented and fixed - Fixes to automatic fuel regulator - Fixes to afterburner at height - Rb04 no longer launching when re-armed - Correction to TILS-stations numbering past 20 - Multiple potential CTDs fixed - TILS-layer switch not switching back fixed - TAKT/Out not showing rightmost station fixed The big thing here is the radios that now should be working as intended (there where multiple issues with it). Edit: added TAKT/UT-fix Hi, I was really looking forward to this update, but the changelog published today doesn't mention the Viggen at all: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3182611&postcount=49 ... since the update was delayed yet again for a couple of days ... can you please check with ED to make sure that your patches are indeed included on the next update?

RagnarDa Posted July 1, 2017 Posted July 1, 2017 Don't worry guys! ED don't have our patch-notes because none of us gave it to them! See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_of_responsibility I don't think a build for 1.5.6 is even compatible with 1.5.7. We update our module files on EDs server every week, after its been vetted by the QA-crew for one week. So any build is at most two weeks old that is included in DCS updates. Keeping Viggen compatible with the rapidly advancing DCS-framework is a necessity just like it would in any other alive and well software project. DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs.

If your kneeboard is implemented correctly you should see your pages after or before the transparent pages. until now, i have no clue how to get rid of those transparent pages. SFMBE

Rudel_chw Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 ...So there aren't any Viggen fixes in this patch I'm downloading right now or there are? At least they fixed the Navigation System cold start error (where the HUD showed 2147483647 on the bottom and the HSI didnt initially showed the direction to the current waypoint). But there are still bugs, for example when I fire my two Rb15 the TAKT display keeps showing 010010, like the missiles were still on board ... it should change to 000000. Would love to have a changelog, just to be sure what has been fixed, rather than having to experiment to find out :( For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB

(in 1.5.7) 2 months between 1.5 updates is a long time & you must have fixed something? I didn't notice any changes in the last patch. Trimming is still problematic, model animations are non-existant, unlimited ammo doesn't work, etc. I don't know why they are taking this long to polish this thing, perhaps they are busy with the F-14 right now, so it's worth the wait.
Cobra847 Posted July 15, 2017 Author Posted July 15, 2017 Changelog for 1.5.7. Sorry for the delay. There are plenty of changes. Major ones: Implemented various Radio functionality Fixes to the Automatic Fuel Regulator Fixes to afterburner at altitude RB-04 no longer launching (exploding) when re-armed Correction to TILS-stations numbering past 20 Multiple potential CTDs fixed Corrected TILS-layer switch not switching back Updated and fixed CN locale Fixed distance time line getting stuck relative to horizon when in sidewinder fast select mode Fixed backup sights Probable fix to kneeboard Fixed startersound Re-added playsound for Walkman Wave 1 of input overhaul Radio is now pre-configured to nearest airfield Fixed issue with FR22 radio becoming unusable after moving radio function selector Fixed broken easter egg Tuned pylon x,y,z coordinates Nicholas Dackard Founder & Lead Artist Heatblur Simulations https://www.facebook.com/heatblur/

Juancio Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) Please elaborate? :) Hey Cobra thanks for answering.:thumbup: I started flying the Viggen a couple of weeks ago after flying the F-5 for a while and the first thing I noticed is the plane is lacking several animations. To name a few: - Wheel rotation while taxiing is off, really off. I looks weird, as if the airplane is sliding around. - My radar stick is not moving (it's supposed to right?) - Throttle linkage - ̶C̶a̶n̶n̶a̶r̶d̶s̶ - Moving wing surfaces shake all the time - Thrust reverser on or off, no trantision in between. - Engine nozzle - No turbine animation (the back of the engine looks rather crude and incomlete). Made a thread about this in the bug section. Edited July 16, 2017 by Juancio 1
