ouPhrontis Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 I believe that mechanic is already in place, at least the Tarawa pitches and rolls, though you do skate about the deck when it's rough.

mwd2 Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 We have pitching decks.... Playing: DCS World Intel i7-13700KF, 64GB DDR5 @5600MHz, RTX 4080 ZOTAC Trinity, WIN 11 64Bit Prof. Squadron "Serious Uglies" / Discord-Server: https://discord.gg/2WccwBh Ghost0815
QuiGon Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 I believe that mechanic is already in place, at least the Tarawa pitches and rolls, though you do skate about the deck when it's rough. That happens in real life as well, although not as easily as in DCS :D Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
AG-51_Razor Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 It is indeed already in DCS but unfortunately it is entirely dependant on the velocity of the wind selected in the ME. I wish that they would give us a setting in the ME that wold allow us to choose the Sea State as a separate setting. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
ouPhrontis Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 There's more than likely an entire thread on it or five, somewhere, but that sort of thing would be nice to have the weather grabbed from a METAR and updated in-game, so one could envisage leaving the deck in CAVOK to come back in IMC.

QuiGon Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 What do you think causes waves in real life? The local public swimming pool in my area has such a wave adjustment setting! IRL!

billeinstein Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 The local public swimming pool in my area has such a wave adjustment setting! IRL! Then there should be some earthquakes or tide sim into DCS World.:D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
billeinstein Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 But ships in game have no pitching during high speed turn now. Wish they will be like this: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
ouPhrontis Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) That is insane, I cannot imagine that manoeuvre would be done on a regular basis, only in an emergency, as everything would need to be strapped down, all hell would be breaking loose above and below decks otherwise.

That's an essential test for all ships. You can find more videos about it in YT. In some tests of this, crews can stand on the deck. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
ouPhrontis Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 Oh I absolutely understand that, yes, I got a strong indicator that it was a trials thing, that they had one jet strapped down in the very centre of the deck and an observer recording the show. I assume you highlighted that as an extreme example though, such that under normal circumstances a change of heading would still be accompanied by a (lesser) rolling of the deck that perhaps we're not currently seeing in DCS?

mrmertz Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 So it’s my understanding that aircraft carriers in DCS 2.5 indeed have pitching decks then, from what I have read here. I guess I could go online and do some Russian a/c to find out. The rolling deck wouldn’t so much faze me as a vastly pitching deck would. In some of the real life vids I’ve watched on the more noticeable days when a pitching deck was present a lot of the F-18’s were given wave offs. I agree though, setting the sea perimeters would be kinda nice beyond just the weather perimeters. Calm, rough, etc. and perhaps the sim would adjust the weather/winds appropriately as swells perhaps work in unison with the weather? The one vid I watched had the carrier doing some pretty heavy pitching during landing procedures but the weather as filmed on deck seemed really nice. I guess carrier location on the seas and ocean swells play a big part in it. Does anybody have a vid from on deck of a carrier in DCS which shows the amount of pitching?
