Start-up TUTORIAL: VIDEO

This mod started development over two years ago as a personal project to join the DCS modding community. Its developers, as the name suggests, belong to the virtual squad Lechuzas Negras. We started with the VSN model and then added and improved it. We are currently working with Qbit Simulations on a spectacular new cockpit even more amazing than the current one, 100% true to the real one. And we'll keep working on the mod to fix bugs and add new content.

Happy New Year 2022!

Any chance of changing the thread title? I keep thinking there's a new version, only to find it's still the same one from almost 2 years ago....

 

Maybe just put the release date on the title instead?

[Saguanay]

Release date and /or Vers number.    In my cockpit it shows Vers 1.1    Is that the latest?

 

[andyc]

so i don't get any option to actually fly it - can't get in the cockpit - is that because i don't have the su-33 aircraft ? this is latest 2.9 dcs

If you can't get in the cockpit of a mod, then yes that usually means you don't have something that the mod needs in order to fly.

Does anyone have a idea of the real HOTAS layout for the stick and throttle for the Eurofighter? I like to try get my control setups as close as possible to the real thing-and saw some old topics people had a good idea of the controls , but ...the links aren't up to date.

I know it'll be similar to other planes- but still want to get as close as possible

[Zapon]

Second Question: I have what appears to be two HUDS when i start the game- one is the SU-33 one, but it starts out dimmed away- i can raise the brightness or lower it- but my problem is the first HUD that appears- this HUD is different and newer and looks cool  but is always there and does not change when i turn on BVR more or other modes. I cannot turn off this strange new HUD- or change it. Is there a way to control it? Having two HUDS on  top of each other is super cluttered. And the de clutter button  right below the HUD does not get rid of it, only a few small bits

Not sure if i missed some guide over how to control it

Also funny, the HUD color change only affects the bottom one(the flanker one)- not the eurofighter one

-Oddly, the brightness of the flanker one is dim- and that makes it hard to use the radar there

there's a switch above the left engine rpm display.

 

regarding the hotas, there's some information in the HB Eurofighter sub forum

Not hard at all, it took me 30 seconds to fix the conflict issue. I've asked Gonzalo to include the fix in their next update. But here are the needed changes. (The three files belong to the Lechuzas Negras team Eurofighter mod, with the addition of my changes to fix the conflict issue).

Eurofighter.lua 45.39 kB · 77 downloads Weapons.lua 33.83 kB · 78 downloads EurofighterT.lua 37.84 kB · 77 downloads

I had grabbed both mods- spotted this before trying both, grabbed the files, no problems! Thank You, i have gripens flying with eurofighters!

I hope both mod makers will get to this- not sure if everyone's aware of it, i did mention it in the EF discord and i don't know if the Gripen devs know of the conflicts - though i know it only takes one of the two teams to fix this, not both

I'll look for the heatblur info then, figured that since they're working on the EF they might have an idea.....

thank you -somehow i missed that little switch despite trying every switch in the cockpit

Is there an AG version?

[ivan-ivanov-1902]

how do I enable RWR?

[Jerec]

RWR doesn´t work. Seems the Eurofighter project has been abandoned. Nothing new from the dev team on Discord server for months.
