Recommended Posts

First of all congratulation and many thanks for this beautiful mod !

 

I have a slight request:

Could someone with Adobe Photoshop convert the .psb files of the paint kit template to .psd so that users of GIMP such as myself can use them too ? I have failed to find a good online converter...Thank you in advance !

Hi and thank you!

If you want the paint kit you can find it on the first post.

Hi, I'm the author of the template. The reason why it's PSB file is because the template available to public was resized from my source of 8K and was saved as PSB cause it's very big in size, and was over the 2gb limit for PSD saving. Once the file is converted to PSB you can't turn back in Photoshop, unless you use some thirdy party applications online.

First I want to say thank you for this great mod and your hard work.

I like the mb339 really and it is working fine in sigle player.

 

This week we tested it in multiplayer with multi cockpit, but we had a lot of problems. The second pilot was not able to use any switch in the cockpit and there was no syncronisation. The front pilot closed the canopy but for the second pilot the canopy was open. And he was unable to close it himself. Sometimes taking controls with J doesn't switch all axis to the second pilot. Then I pressed J multiple times and our aircraft warped into the orbit.

 

On an airstart after we switched controls and the turbine switched off.

 

All the problems look like the mb339 is unusable in multi-cockpit mode right now. But maybe we did something wrong? Or maybe it is related to DCS updates? Who is able to use the multi-cockpit mode of the mb339 at the moment and can give me some help? :pilotfly:

Currently there is no multicrew sync, but we will work on it later. The problems that you have described are normality for now...

We are working on onboard systems now, the multicrew sync will be implemented after all systems will be totally coded.

The only suggestion for now is doing the same action of the pilot in order to mitigate the issues you experienced.

But the second pilot can not click on any button or switch at the moment. Is this right? Should he do it with keybindings only?

Hi there.

 

Many thanks for the work you have put into this free mod. I installed it yesterday and have been having a lot of fun with it.

 

I am experiencing quite regular DCS crashes with the mod installed though. The log file always contains the following three lines at the end when it crashes...

 

2019-09-16 10:13:02.394 ERROR_ONCE DX11BACKEND: texture 'vasca339_norm' not found. Asked from 'NGMODEL'
2019-09-16 10:13:03.780 ERROR_ONCE DX11BACKEND: texture 'gunsight339_spec' not found. Asked from 'NGMODEL'
2019-09-16 10:13:04.527 ERROR_ONCE DX11BACKEND: texture 'mb339-cockpit_instr_refl' not found. Asked from 'NGMODEL'

 

I have uploaded the full log as a txt file in case it helps.

 

EDIT : This may be a complete red herring, but if I fly in the unarmed version first in the factory livery then after that it does not crash. I have only tested this two or three times, but it seems to be the case.

Hi, those lines are there from long time: they are some orphanus map unlinked from materials and exported in cockpit model, but this will not CTD the sim.

I’ve read all the log, and really I think that you don’t have a Real crash, but simply a close to desktop of the sim, maybe due to too high ram usage in an heavy mission.

The mission had two MB-339s, both clients so only one spawned. Nothing else.

 

I certainly do think it is a memory issue, but related to this module as I get no other crashes with other modules and missions.

 

Sometimes it just crashes to desktop and sometimes DCS catches the crash and performs a dump. I'll post up the dump next time it crashes with one. In the meantime, I'll keep trying to create a positive replication.

Hi, probably your windows user name has special characters or spaces. Can you confirm it?

Hi 6S.Duke!

First thnk you for the quick answer.

Yes, there is an ó in my username.What should I do then?

Thanks

The problem is that DCS doesn't load the dll from Saved games folder for mods if you have special charachter in your user name. You can follow two ways:

1. Changing your user name

2. Moving the saved game folder

 

The second option is described in this post: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=4030769

How good of quality is this mod compared with official full fidelity modules?

 

Have y'all thought about releasing it to ED as 3rd party status but keep the mod here to download for free? That way, people can pay to have the module included in the full game and would be able to join MP servers, etc. even if everyone does not have it downloaded.

Modules owned:

 

FC3, M-2000C, Mig-21bis, F-5E, AJS-37 Viggen, F/A-18C, KA-50, Mi-8, F-14A&B, JF-17

Hey guys!

 

First of all, even if it'd go without saying, thank you for the great mod(ule!), doubly so, because I'm Italian! ;)

 

I have a couple of questions about the weapons, I couldn't find the answer I was looking for in this nor the previous thread.

 

1) what kind of warhead do the Matra 155 have?

2) I tried to find out more real life information about the LR-25 and the ARF/8M3 rockets, but couldn't find anything on the Internet, have some pointer?

3) Not sure if the -A you're modelling was/is capable of carrying them, but I'll ask anyway: any plan to add AIM-9s and/or R.550s?

 

Thanks again for all of your work and for the answers!

So finally got some time to try out the new release, and wow!

Amazing difference from the first, very very nice work! I fly in VR and taking off gave me the feeling of taking off, even more so than in the F-18. Just superb!

 

 

 

Will certainly be looking forward to future updates (Practicing ILS landings would be a lot of fun) but for now, time to practice maneuvers! :D

Is there a way to zoom the view in this plane?

 

 

In the Reapers' video, he's doing it with his TrackIR, but I can't find anything under the Axis settings.

 

 

thx

I would suggest to wait the patch but if you want to try, go to joystick/default.lua, under "axis commands" add the following line: {action = iCommandViewZoomAbs,name = _('Zoom View')},

 

Furthermore, the TIR correction will be part of the patch too but until it is not released you can fix it yourself. Go to the thread linked below, download the zip file and unzip it to MB-339PAN/Input folder. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=4036871

 

Enjoy!
