Nospin44 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Has HUD symbology for the TGP been implemented yet? I remember seeing talk about it a few months ago. I haven't been on to check in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle0110 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Is ED actually developing anything on this at all or are they instead putting all the effort on the ATFLIR to be finished to have it replace the TGP we have currently?

Thats a good question. Maybe they are hard at work on ATFLIR instead. When did we get our tgp? Wasnt it like early august? Somethings gotta be up if they havent added basic hud indication 6 months after the pod released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parxuk Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I find it really frustrating not being able to slew the TGP to a waypoint. I would think this is fairly basic requirement/functionality and if my memory serves me correctly was implemented on the Warthog. Really hope it gets sorted soon.

Echo179 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) It's even more frustrating not getting answers from ED... Especially when it's related to some seemingly relatively simple quality of life improvements that would greatly increase the capability of the Hornet without requiring a whole new system. Improved Litening Pod functionality, grid coordinate entry, etc. At least let us know if it's not actually a simple thing to give us, so we can calm down on it a bit.

First of all, it's obviously a good thing if they decided to scrap the LITENING, because if I'm honest- the majority of players won't even bother with it once we can mount the ATFLIR on station 4. With that being said, they mentioned a few times that the ATFLIR will come around the time the new IR renderer will be implemented. The most logical answer is that you didn't see any improvements to the LITENING because it wasn't being worked on (remember the whole F16 saga?). I was convinced they will get to it in the updates after the pod was released. They probably will once it's higher on their priority list. In the meantime, I just stopped using it.

I haven't been following F-16 at all though, what exactly is this F-16 saga about? And it totally makes sense for them to complete FLIR rendering overhaul before finishing the ATFLIR, although that probably also means it will take a while before ATFLIR comes out...

Sent from my SM-N960U1 using Tapatalk Some developers from the Hornet team switched to Viper related tasks prior to the release of the Viper. I guess (and I can be wrong here) that the 'TGP guy' was probably assigned the task to integrate the LITENING pod to the F-16. We can't really complain about it at this point in time. Let's just keep hoping the ability to slave the TGP to a waypoint will be added in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its definitely wasnt being worked on that. I do not have other explanation since we have LITENING pod from almost eight months (July 2019)... But we dont have a lot of basic functions of it, like slave to WP; HUD indication; AA mode; INR and snow-plow modes, etc... The TGP is almost useless at this level, I strongly hope that we will get some improvements ASAP (or ATFLIR?).

robgraham Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 yeah well even though WAGS had said we were getting it were now being told it's not realistic.. but it's realistic to have the FOV on the JHMCS.... despite the fact that the JHMCS is a reproduction of the HUD and Blanks out when your looking at the HUD as the HUD displays the SAME information as the JHMCS... i7 13700k, 64gb DDR5, Warthog HOTAS, HP Reverb G2 VR, win 11, RTX 3070 TGW Dedicated Server Admin, Australian PVE/PVP gameplay.

Apparently you know better than the developers and have documents and proof stating otherwise. Hornet pilots here and in other mediums have been saying for months that the TGP Box is not displayed on the HUD. It’s time to move on and stop perpetuating a fantasy.

CypherS Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Does this mean that we won't be able to see where the tgp is looking on the HUD? Also will the diamond that shows up be removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swift. Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 It seems that we won't be getting a HUD indications like a10 has. We will instead be getting the ability to slave the FLIR to the VVI and to various Waypoints. 476th Discord | 476th Website | Swift Youtube Ryzen 5800x, RTX 4070ti, 64GB, Quest 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomTOTEN Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 to be able to be quickly orient where the damn tgp is actually is pointing at and to guide it on intended path. My intereim solution has been as follows; WPDSG the target, cage the TGP fly to put TGT diamond on the A/C crosshair. now the TGP is looking in the approximate direction of the Target, I slew it to ground stabilize... good enough!

Just use the SA page, slew the TGP over a waypoint it SA threat indicated..

They have same TGP and they have TGP indication on the HUD. Even JF 17 has HUD indication when using TGP. So, is that unrealistic also?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swift. Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 They are different aircraft with different FLIR interfaces, so it doesn't really carry over. According to Lex it depends on the aircraft software and lot, which means that some aircraft don't and some do. So you will have to find some evidence that proves our hornet should have it, because ED seem to have found some that says otherwise. 476th Discord | 476th Website | Swift Youtube Ryzen 5800x, RTX 4070ti, 64GB, Quest 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VDV Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 А quote from Wags in Hornet mini-updates, 8 months ago (when LITENING was released): "Other elements will be coming to the pod like HUD symbology, INR and snow plow modes, additional reticles, AA mode, and more".
