Thanks for the changelog (and of course all the fixes it contains)!!

 

Quick question: What's the status on the BK90 update?

Followup quick question: what's the status of the flight manual update?

Quick question: What's the status on the BK90 update?

 

It's WIP; unfortunately we're still working on figuring out parts of the new Weapons API. I believe this is now a high priority for RagnarDa.

I'll check with the team shortly on the remaining issues!

Got it, thanks! :)

[TLTeo]

Thanks!

I think - looking at it as objectively as we can considering our inherent bias - we feel that the Viggen is in a very good place currently. Not to dismiss your concerns, quite the contrary, but try to see everything through a relative lens where any missing features or bugs are rather minor relative to the total functionality and value of a product. I think we can safely say that the module is playable, realistic, and (fairly) well polished.

 

 

 

I agree, my Logbook records 520 missions on the Viggen (out of 1013 in total) flown between January 27th 2017 and April 10th 2018 ... I enjoyed every one of them :)

 

 

I havent flown her since April because I changed planes, first to the A-10C and now to the F/A-18C and these two have used up all of my free time since ... hope to be tired of them when you finally came out with the F-14 :D

 

 

Best regards and thanks a lot for what you and your team have created.

Great news :thumbup:

Hi Cobra,

When will we have the ep-13 control sight and the rat?

Nice update.

[Hoffster]

Good stuff! Looking forward to spending more time in it. The future looks bright for my personal fav module.

Here's the current, more comprehensive list:

 

• Enabled real-time mirror rendering
  
  

 

Does this work for anybody? just did a quick test and my mirrors are grey like they always were.

[RagnarDa]

I think some of the changes in the list came a little too late to make it into yesterday’s update.

That`s okay, thank you!

Roger that. :thumbup:

[JokerMan]

Nice to be able to use the landing light again :pilotfly:

 

Receiving these updates and knowing that the module continues to be developed to it's fullest really does mean so much to us AJS37 drivers.

 

The platform is the pinnacle of flight simulation ....and quality modules such as the Viggen are the flagships that folks see in the youtube videos and elsewhere.

 

We are in your corner having bought the module clearly, but I get a strong sense that you are in our, the community's, corner also with the regular updates and improvements over the while that you continue to provide.

 

Thanks

 

S!

Well said!

Are you sure the fix made it into yesterdays update? Because mine looks still like on the picture below.

[TLTeo]

Yep mine are still messed up too

[Automan]

Guys, I've checked autoupdate_log.txt and any of the Viggen files were modified/added in the last update: the changelog is valid for the next DCS update;)

[streakeagle]

Mirrors! Yeah!

[Mikke_EAF331]

Somehow flying the Viggen yesterday felt smoother then usual, can't explain exactly how or why, but it did. And I managed to kill 6 ships with 8 RB-15 divided on 4 take-offs. :p

 

Light bug still present, but I finally found where to turn landing lights off (and set buttons for turning it on and off).

 

I bought the F/A-18 just before release, but have only sat in the cockpit twice, on the ground. Too busy flying the Viggen and having fun! :)

But I watched Wags F/A-18 startup video and had to snicker a little when he said it was easy to start up. :D

[Rtyer]

We can wait in the updates a TV-guided bomb RBS15G?

 

Or is the extension of the Viggen module already complete?

 

[amalahama]

Unlikely, and we have already the sweden Maverick in the inventory.

[RagnarDa]

Don’t think there is a missile called RBS-15G (at least I never heard of it)
