Air Combat Maneuvering video/debrief

[Devil 505]

Hey gents,

 

I know there is a third party mod out there for this, but has ED or any dev ever talked about implementing ACM video debriefs into DCS?

 

I remember Digital Image Design doing it with F-22 Total Air War. It was really useful for perfecting air to air and even air to ground combat techniques. I think this would be a big step in the right direction for enthusiast working toward becoming better combat pilots. I know I could use it to critique myself.

 

Thoughts or opinions?

Tacview is a dedicated program that is "actively developed" on it's own and is good enough? Accurate enough for the French Air Force to use....

 

 

25 May 2018, 1.7.2 beta 2 is the latest version.

 

 

I think keeping this separate and off ED's "very long" to do list is a good thing.

Tacview really is a great program, download the free version to try it out for yourself.

 

 

This is not just a mod, it has it's own icon in the DCS tray.

Yeaaaah... Tacview isn't a mod. It's external software written for that specific purpose. What you're asking for exists. It's called TacView. Go get it.

They interface with a lot more than just games, and seem to have contracts with civil and military institutions. "A mod" @@

Very much appreciated gents. I had no idea this was a separate software. I will give it a try. Sounds like a great option
