Q1E Development Update

"It is coming- you paid for it- we’ll deliver."

 

Best quote. ED could learn more than a few things from HB.

Cobra:

 

I am giving you a bro hug. My goodness. These are great news, and I am excited. I have never doubt your leadership and vision in the Tomcat work. I was a quick fan of the Heatblur Tomcat when I FIRST saw it on YOUTUBE two years ago (then proceed to return to flight simulation after two decades complete with a new rig and HOTAS, lots of manual studying and solo mission training), and I am just as excited before as I am now.

 

This excitement is also for your team as well. This is hard work and I truly appreciate the time spent in research, quality assurance, and fan communication.

 

Thank you and thank you once more to your great team.

 

p.s: May your team member make a good recovery, and everyone stay healthy amid this trying times.

[Fercyful]

Thanks for the update!

 

Please is the "circle over target" order for Iceman (while sitting at Jester position and using Lantirn) still on the mix?

 

All be safe!

Yes, just another item we did not get to yet. Thank you all for your continued patience with us.

[Lucas_From_Hell]

Thanks a lot for the update!

 

Quick question if you don't mind, are you still planning to do an option to remove the TCS and other minor changes to simulate the IIAF/IRIAF Tomcats?

[crow0827]

How about OBC?

Isn’t there plan of implementation?

[Zaku]

Are there still plans to make an F-14A-90/95-GR for Iran? I'd really love to have one as it would make for a good early USN bird too.

[Phantom88]

Thank You,Stay Safe:thumbup:

[HavaFaza]

Thanks for the update. You guys are the best :worthy:

I want to know this as well.

[bies]

Jest F-14A going to be suitable for 1970s scenarios with old style high visibility Navy camo and Iranian Tomcats or it's going to be some modern variant similar to B?

 

Thanks for your work, you are great.

[Uxi]

Thanks for the update. Is the Forrestal at all dependent on ED Carrier API or anything affected by the supercarrier? Specifically shooting to see if HB was able to solve the deck sliding issue and/ or cat launch issues that got much worse in 2.5.6.

 

And any chance of F-14D? Jk

[Airhunter]

Awesome stuff! Shame so much is dependant on ED and their Super Boats....

 

Few more items: Are ECM blisters for the 14B planned as well? And will the AUX and ACCU pressure hydraulic gauges (and those subsystems) work eventually?

[Xenovia]

What audio source are you guys gonna use for the F-14B sound overhaul? real life F-16C audio?

[FWind]

How about the sick guy？

[nighthawk2174]

What does the 14b's digital EIG look like?

[fl0w]

Cobra, what about the JESTER LANTIRN? May we please see a video on it in the upcoming future alongside the Forrestal plans? Even something somewhat WIP would reinstitute the communities' interest in it.

Someone else posted this in another thread.

I have just built a new computer and now can fly the F-14 finally without it being a slideshow. I am going to get into studying up, keep up the great work.

[Kev2go]

Thanks for the update!

 

Just to ask a quick question, can we expect to see included earlier generation missiles like the AIm9H and Aim7E4? Perhaps not necessarily for the F14B but for the F14A?

[Toadster]

Very detailed update and thanks so much for the great work - she's a beauty to fly.

Hi Cobra,

 

 

Might I inquire what the forcefeedback options mean in relation to Vjoy forcefeedback sticks? I use a brunner ffb base and before this update the f-14 ffb blows every other module which uses ffb out of the water. But I take it your adjustments dont work with my brunner ffb base because it uses Vjoy to interact with DCS?

 

 

Could you tell me if Brunner has contacted you to work out their FFB support? it uses plug ins and vjoy to simulate the FFB from DCS and its still in its infancy at some points although its an awsome ffb base for sims like X-plane, microsoft flight sim etc but it lacks capability in dcs still. Such as no stick movement dictated by the game. it will shake and such but trim is only possible via hardware trim.

 

 

 

Id love to hear from you if you guys have partnered up with Brunner as I think your F-14 module is one if not the best module all around and certainly with FFB. I can literally feel how much attention to the force feedback you guys have put into the F-14 i just cant experience everything the way you guys have programmed it.

[Blinde]

Well finally. Thank you.

 

Salute :worthy:

We'll be relying on high quality F-111 audio where possible (though, it obviously differs). The rest we will have to try and mix through sampling and with the help of our SMEs.

 

comes out from lurking at mention of F-111

[X93355]

Hey Cobra, awesome work as usual. As VR is so immersive and the pilots body is important for immersion, can you expand on the new pilots body? Will this be included for VR?

Cheers
