HiJack Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 Quick Q: Changing the side numbers won't affect the triggers, will they? No, but don't change the number on the pilot. EDIT: Or if you do change the pilot number you must also change or add the triggers for that player.
HiJack Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 I tested it just now and I need more practice :) But the triggers also needs some work. It don't see your own "bolter", was that by design?
Jar_VFA-113 Posted June 16, 2018 Author Posted June 16, 2018 Ha ha we get so many bolters it was starting to get annoying. We found for our videos it’s more fun to see it and hear the human LSOs reacting. The automated LSO voice calls in our mission are there for specific grading reasons. Am nearly finished our LSO school movie which will make it all much clearer.
Jar_VFA-113 Posted June 17, 2018 Author Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) Hijack I know you mean well and please don’t take offence but absolutely every person I give my LSO mission to knows how to “make it better” :D. Everyone’s free to do what they like with it once it’s released publicly but if you want to make your own mission go ahead, this thread is for my LSO mod and mission. I don’t mind if you want to now create your own LSO mission inspired by this one and release it separately. The VFA-113 one is perfectly tailored for our purposes which involves mostly human LSO which is why it’s relatively simple. We already have our own internal Case 3 mission where approach talks to you the whole way which I will release once it’s had some revisions. Edited June 17, 2018 by JAR VFA-113 STINGERS
VIBE Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 JAR awesome work and thanks for releasing this for everyone. I did have a question as to the different views. How are these cycles through? Nothing do do with the cam but the air boss seat and the others. I may just be blind but I have not see the command anywhere.
Phantom453 Posted June 19, 2018 Posted June 19, 2018 Great work and very generous of you guys to share this with the community. Thank you JAR and the rest of the VFA-113 STINGERS. On my first try I got kicked by the Air Boss for being too long. More practice ......:thumbup:
Jar_VFA-113 Posted June 19, 2018 Author Posted June 19, 2018 Hey thank you Phantom. That call was implemented directly a few years back by a real USN Carrier pilot. He informed us we were all far too long in the groove and hammered us down to 15-18 seconds. You need to start turning at “paddles contact” , be 1.2 nm abeam (over top of that AEGIS cruiser), onspeed and roll about 27-30 degrees aob. I start looking at the boat at the 90 and aim to cross the carrier wake at the point where it’s fading out with 30 degrees of turn to go (290). I’m normally rolling wings level, .7nm from the Stennis at 300 feet just before the LSO says “3/4 mile...” But yeah, just lots of practice and it’s great fun.

Mt5_Roie Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Great mod....any way to keep the camera steady when using trackIr? seems like locking trackIR doesn't work well. Any recommendations? Coder - Oculus Rift Guy - Court Jester
Jar_VFA-113 Posted June 22, 2018 Author Posted June 22, 2018 I’m in Oculus Rift now but there are ways to disable TIR so it doesn’t move the LSO view, I think hitting your TIR disable key which is by default F9(?). It’s been a while but you might need to reassign that one.
Jar_VFA-113 Posted June 23, 2018 Author Posted June 23, 2018 Hey just a heads up to all the folk messaging me about the Huey being a requirement - it’s currently on sale for 50% off! Support ED and Belsimtek! Buy the Huey so you can use the LSO mod! :D Plus it’s an amazing module and very awesome in VR. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/modules/dcs_uh1h_huey/

sobe Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 I am a little confused. I have 2 screens. Can I have one screen with me in the F18 cockpit and the other screen having the LSO view?

swimbody Posted June 29, 2018 Posted June 29, 2018 Well I screwed the pooch and copied the files without backing up my originals so now I'm integrity screwed. What files do I need to recover and can I without a total reinstall? Any help please! I also have a terrible almost dizzy effect while in VR. Is there some setting I have in graphics that is causing this? Thanks for a great mod!
Sabre-TLA Posted June 29, 2018 Posted June 29, 2018 You should run DCS Repair (look for the icon in your start menu). It will compare files and replace any that are different. That should get you up and running again. As for the dizzy effect it will wear off as you get used to VR. It's because your eyes are seeing the motion but your ears are not feeling it (motion sickness). Very common for new VR users playing motion games (flight sims, driving, etc).

Mainstay Posted July 1, 2018 Posted July 1, 2018 Hi great work so far. Would it be possible to add a solo tanker a bit far from the boat and put the freq in the briefing?
hreich Posted July 1, 2018 Posted July 1, 2018 Can somebody modify this mod so it's moved to Persian Gulf? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Pilot from Croatia
Steel Jaw Posted July 2, 2018 Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) Does anyone have the default files that got overriden...obviously I didnt back the originals up as I should have. Alternatively could I just run the sim repair?

Direwolf Posted July 7, 2018 Posted July 7, 2018 Superb job! Really appreciated that, and thank you for sharing this mod with us. However I am having a little problem with the views: they are way too zoomed in! In your videos the view is in very good scale, but when I set one of your views (I use JSGME for each one), everything is too big and too close! To top this off, head movements with TrackIr turn the experience very difficult. But at least I can turn TrackIr off, and solve this problem. Can you explain me how to reduce the zoom of the views?
