drack Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Normally there's at least a bit of fanboy/girl hype going on with this thread at patch day! What's going on??? OK then...... Let's hope some new stuff for the mozzy and pilots legs for the F16. Yeah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going crazy!" hype, would be: Most are holding their breath on the AH-64D release and most know that won't be included in this patch I really hope you're right on the pilot legs (my Viper will stay gathering dust until it transforms from a QF-16 to a proper F-16CM ) But unfortunately, according ED's roadmap, the pilot body seems to be last in line on Viper improvements Edited November 18, 2021 by sirrah 2 System specs: i7-8700K @stock speed - GTX 1080TI @ stock speed - AsRock Extreme4 Z370 - 32GB DDR4 @3GHz- 500GB SSD - 2TB nvme - 650W PSU HP Reverb G1 v2 - Saitek Pro pedals - TM Warthog HOTAS - TM F/A-18 Grip - TM Cougar HOTAS (NN-Dan mod) & (throttle standalone mod) - VIRPIL VPC Rotor TCS Plus with ALPHA-L grip - Pointctrl & aux banks <-- must have for VR users!! - Andre's SimShaker Jetpad - Fully adjustable DIY playseat - VA+VAICOM ~ That nuke might not have been the best of ideas, Sir... the enemy is furious ~ GUMMBAH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razorback Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I'm quite disappointed by the improvements made to the Mi-24P since the beginning of September. Apart from the arrival of the Ataka missile and the correction of a few bugs we haven't seen much. At this rate I'm afraid it will take years to complete the module (hopefully one day). I don't know what this is due to, probably some explanation or explanations, but it looks like Alexander's team is already busy on something else...too bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few ugly issues (especially related to night lighting) we intended but failed to include, apologies for the wait. We're currently hard at work on a major Viggen patch and key updates to the F-14 and the Forrestal based on initial feedback. EDIT: And it's live!

Example: - Petrovitch voice: Q2 2022 - Kord in cargo: Q1 2022 ... you make it sound like no work was done, this is from todays changelog DCS: Mi-24P Hind by Eagle Dynamics Improved: 9K113 ATGM guidance control unit gyroscopic stabilization modeling improved after new analysis and comments from SME. Leads to more stable operation within gyroscopic system limitations. Petrovich AI flight routines improved including: Nap of the earth flight Vertical takeoff and landing (command by setting altitude to zero for landing and adding any altitude above zero for takeoff, in the interface. Note that Petrovich will put gear down/up automatically and hold brakes automatically after landing) Hovering – Petrovich will hover more like human now Petrovich AI ATGM align maneuver during hover was reworked and with new gyroscopic stabilization changes short time alignment is possible to stay in hover after launch. If ATGM align maneuver is ordered while in hover (HVR mode) Petrovich will shortly pitch down to align with target for ATGM launch, operator task is to hold the launch button after alignment was ordered as launch authorization will be short (1-3 sec). After a short pitch down and alignment Petrovich will return to hover. It is advised to order ATGM align in hover after the course was adjusted to suit direction to target. Also, it is advised to order hover ATGM align to distant targets as angle to close targets may be too steep. (Known issue: after first ATGM alignment order Petrovich stops reacting to short UP command to change course, will still react to ATGM align order. Temporary workaround: after setting course for Petrovich interface HSI with short UP, switch mode with short LEFT from CBTM to HVR and Petrovich will react and adjust course, then switch back to CBTM). English localization of pilot’s cockpit input commands (WIP). Main rotor pitch indicator needle movement smoothened Added: Forward cockpit windshield aiming reference marker that can be toggled in special menu settings. (It corresponds to 0 degrees of depression for PKI) Fixed: Autopilot Altitude hold button maps reversed PKI sight armature and mechanics textures reworked Conflict of collective with option misc. “Synchronize Cockpit Controls with HOTAS controls at Mission Start” setting 9K113 ATGM guiding unit "put the control knobs in neutral" function doesn’t work ATC giving information to Mi-24P in imperial units. LCtrl + Y to toggle the bottom screen info bar is not working for the Mi-24P R-863 emergency frequency receiver light. GSH-30-2K improper naming in debriefing Key binding for engine start selection reversed. 1 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Northstar98 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) Here's a question, though maybe this is better suited to a dedicated thread, but now that we have an actual FAB-250 (FAB-250M-62), shouldn't the other FAB-250 be renamed to OFAB-250-270, as that's what the model seems to depict? The same also goes for the FAB-100, which is depicted as an OFAB-100-120. For anybody wondering FAB- bombs are general purpose bombs, but OFAB- bombs are fragmentation bombs.
