bennyboy9800 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I had thought I had seen it display as a U, like most other user-modded radars.

Nightstorm Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 (edited) I've got an RWR mod out for Western aircraft. I'll update it to include this aircraft as well. *EDIT* Updated the RWR mod to include this. It should display as "E7" on RWR if it's picked up. DCS RWR Symbology (digitalcombatsimulator.com) Testing so far shows that it's not detected, at least not by the RWR in the F22 mod which uses the F15C RWR. It was however, working great. Darkstar was chattering away telling me where all the bogies were. Edited February 28, 2022 by Nightstorm 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bug? 1) I re-used the existing AN/APY-1 capabilities as a reasonable approximation instead of attempting to make a custom MESA radar in DCS (I doubt there is any decent information about it's specifications in the public knowledge arena anyway) 2) I recall in earlier builds/testing it showing as "AI" in RWR contacts, but it doesn't seem to be picking it up lately (this is true of other MOD planes that I have tested as well). Maybe something "got broke" in a recent update? If anyone has an example of a user mod plane showing correctly in RWR let me know to help me test the problem 1 hour ago, ultrablue2258 said: Request to add Outback as a callsign for the Wedgetail as that is the RAAF ABM Callsign 3) would love to add "outback" as a callsign but not sure how to do that as a user mod without touching "core files" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightstorm Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) @prccowboy I know that various other aircraft do show up on the RWR when using my RWR mod. In the mission I was testing I have the Grinn F22, VSN F35, Su57, Su30, Su35 etc and they all show up according to the entries in the RWR table. However, I didn't see any reading from E7A. I too compared the lua for the E7 to that of the E3 and everything looked perfectly fine to me. It's using the same RADAR as you stated. I don't know why it's not showing up on RWR, however it does in fact still work as an AWACS. @RaptorFighter Access to the database that controlled callsigns was lost when all of the database files were encrypted. That's when we lost the extended call signs mod. I've been asking for access to that back ever since by posting in the various threads about it, but all requests were ignored. I love this sim. And I'm really happy we have it, but sometimes I feel like a dog begging for table scraps from ED. We only get what they decide to let us have. *EDIT* Woops, that callsign comment was meant for @ultrablue2258 not @RaptorFighter . But since I'm editing this anyway, in my opinion, if the aircraft is supposed to have an AESA radar that would be difficult to detect on RWR, what's the harm? I mean it functions as an AWACS which was the intended goal. You can still pick it up easily on FCR and down it if it's on the OPFOR. And if its friendly, it does its job just fine and the fact that it doesn't show up on RWR just *might* be more realistic. My opinion only.

crazyeddie Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 We Brits ordered 5, then the government reduced that to 3, so only 1 is ever likely to be available at any given time. Thank god politicians only get to run countries, if they had to run households we plebs would all be living in mud huts and burning candles made out of goats fat.

Not Detected by player RWR bug is fixed - v1.1.0301 E-7a will now show on player RWR as Unknown type (or "AI" in F-14).

Geschirre Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Thanks for the E-7! A P-8 would be amazing!!! The Civil Aircraft Mod 737-200 just isn't convincing me it can be a P-8 and the 757 is too big. That is IF you release it, either way I appreciate everything you've done. 1 "A plan is a list of things that wont happen" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrow11 Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Wow! Thank you for the reply @prccowboy. Yes completely understand and agree to your point.. the uh60 addons and E7 are already great additions that you have given the community. In case the P8I comes out a default US Navy livery itself would make me very happy, but if you ask the Indian Navy skin below is a personal liking.
