Vekkinho Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Hi, following the success of 666th Birdy's Merzifion mod that made some practical use of fictional Razdolnoye AB by repositioning it to Turkey and creating a true Blue force AB in LOFC world I got an idea of doing the same with, as it seems also fictional Novorossiysk AB. I've been checking some Google Earth footage and I don't actually see an airbase in Novorossiysk. Seems like there's a runway but not used anymore in purpose of an airfield, seems more like a factory or a bunch of magazines. So I though of moving this AB to Georgia or Turkey again where it might add to realism. BS features some new ABs in Georgia, but LOFC doesn't have that parts covered, so moving Novorossiysk there might help! If there's anyone from Novorossiysk, Gelendzik or Kuban visiting these forums please share some info on Novorossiysk AB, is it functional IRL or fictional in LOFC. I can also tell that Anapa and Maykop are not that big IRL as in LOFC! Thanks! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Aeroscout Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Well, Razdolnoye is kinda out of the way and not many mission editors use it, especially online. If you were to re-position Novorossiysk, this would create a lot of confusion in online play as many missions use this airbase. DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices
169th_Case Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Apparently Novorossijsk will become a new naval base for the Black Sea Fleet, as Russia is leasing the naval base at Sevastopol which is now in the Ukraine. It may be that Novorossijsk AB will be out of use for the construction of the new naval base. However, as it seems to exist or have existed in reality, I would opt not to move it.
