Cuban, the KC-130 cockpit looks good how far will you go with the animation? Will dials do you plan to animate?

Hi Jacks The KC-130 is my FIrst Aircraft that I will code the gauges in LUA

All gauges will be animated in code.

As for the clickable part of the PIT is quite simple and only simple systems will be modeled at start,like landing gear,flaps,Engines start up,and Electrical system including lights.

As for animation everything will be linked and animated,including throttle and control yokes/pedals ex.

Cubanace, good luck with all of your projects. Even if just one comes to life, it will be a huge victory!

 

One question about the KC-130, will we be able to pass gas to other human pilots in Harriers, or whatever?

[dali]

wow man, talk about dedication!

[ebabil]

C-130 is the mod i am inerested in most.

i hope it goes to a good point. we really need decent cargo/refuel/awacs planes

[assafm25]

The best topic i read this year after the F-18!

 

Good lock and keep us update

[cubanace]

The KC-130T has turn out better than spected for many reasons.

Ritt a Former marine has really been helping me on the details on the KC-130 and is currently finding out more details needed to take this a bit further and more detailed,He also send the manual of the KC-130T which is 956 pages long and in great detail,Also I found naca test flights and reports about the KC-130 Aerodynamics so the wing and flight model can be made,good thing it is not Completely classified.

 

DO I LIKE WORKING ON THE KC-130T?

And to be honest I love this plane and I really enjoy Working on this one and an honor to help out this former Marine and make This Aircraft come alive in dcs as a mod and maybe more than that someday.

 

Concerns

My only Concern is the 4 engines modeling in dcs world,at the moment I don't think its possible to have 4 engine management,maybe things will change with 2.5.

 

 

Multiseat

The KC-130 has a crew of 5 and I will include this feature.

[Jacks]

Can you add multicrew with sdk access?

[SkateZilla]

multi-crew can be done easy enough even without SDK Access..

 

Just a matter of setting the views.lua correctly and the keyboard commands.

[SkateZilla]

L39, Hawk and C101 do not use separate models.

[cubanace]

Bests News Anyone has giving me so Far, I knew it was possible,but hearing it from someone like your self confirms my theory.

Surly Cubanace means cockpit sharing? so that you can use the 5 different seats in multiplayer?

And if im not misstaken, making a sharable multiplayer capable cockpit is not doable without the SDK?

This all sounds awesome! Excited to see your results! One correction...I believe Marines don't ever consider themselves Former Marines, Only Retired. But in Ritt's case he's still active duty;)

yes he's Active Duty that is what I Ment to say,i will fix that:D

Good Job. You're making much needed aircraft for DCS. Sukhoi-7 looks incredible.

[shaggy]

You just have to specify your crew member size in your aircraft lua file, and then call the views. Your views is based on coordinates and an imaginary X, Y, Z axis' that determine how far you can move around. 3DS Max (the software used to make these planes besides Blender) is very useful to get these numbers. It is just numbers defining where, and then he just has to add commands into the plane controls to let you go to those spots.

 

That only enables you to switch pilot seats, it does not allow for multi crew capability in multiplayer

[shaggy]

There is a line in your aircraft lua file that specifies the crew member size and the positions. It automatically syncs with multiplayer ;)

 

I disagree on that. If that was true we would have more mods with multi crew by this point.

 

But I would be happy to be proven wrong .....

KC-130T RoadMap

 

Animation for the Cockpit Steering Weel is being Added and Work on,Both the KC-130 and AC-130 use a steering Weel to steer the Aircraft on the Ground,Also BAsic TurboProp sounds Added.

 

MultiSeat is being Coded and its already Working in single player and Online,I will include a preview video when all cords are complete for different seats.

Also you guys will noticed tons of textures missing and that's fine,there is a lot to code and add up.

 

Stations are as follows= Pilot/Copilot/flight Engineer/Second Flight Engineer/the two LoadMasters Use passenger Seats ( A total of 6 Crew Members)

All these Seat positions are being Coded and Setup.

 

Preview Video of the Steering Weel and sound,Excuse my Joystick its extremely old and does not work good.

[ebabil]

will those mfd's work? also can you make it look worn out when adding textures?

[shaggy]

You also need to write in the aircraft.lua file that the seats are playable. Either than that, conceptional proof that it works. ;)

 

2nd screenshot is it in multiplayer arena.

 

 

 

I know how to do this, but adding the feature so a 2nd pilot can pick the backseat and fly with you in multiplayer is not working with only editing aircraft and view.lua. the way you have it setup now is only for 1 pilot to switch between 2 seats. Not for 2 pilots to pick one seat each. Am I correct ? Otherwise I would like further proof of that you have this working in multiplayer, with a friend flying in the back seat........
