Renato71 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I need one confirmation: In BVR mode [3], TD box on HUD can be moved only up and down, and it cannot be moved to the left or right. Question: Any way to disable MFD? Some friends of mine are complaining that it does not look realistic, especially as it moves over the panel while you maneuver the aircraft (due to head movement bob). thnx!

Airbuster Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) Here's one easy way you can make it more realistic: Press Rctrl + H, to change color of the MFD to yellow. Then use Setka Mode (press 8 ). Edited August 31, 2011 by Airbuster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, to turn it off, to make it not visible at all, to disable it in full, not to be shown in any way. Just the blank "radar screen". About 6dof, I know about those instructions, thanks, but that method is not preferable to all players. As for "not realistic", I mean - it does not display realistic data in realistic way. Hence, many players voiced to remove such MFD in full, as that rather have blank radar screen. As for "players", I mean buddies of mine that are spending quite a lot of a time with this mod, and does not represent other players of this mod in any way. I'm selling MiG-21 activation key.

beczl Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 Hello, Well it's a tricky at the moment. It can disable but without this you haven't use a radar so you have no info about bandits and also can't use radar guided missiles. We tried the Mig-21 with Su-25 cockpit insead of Mig-29. Generally it works, the HUD is an old one but without radar info you don't able to find any target. Here it's the deactivated Radar Scren version files. Just overwrite the existing ones. http://www.sendspace.com/file/no5uql Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuky Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 What if you just make the textures that are displayed on the MFD blank? No longer active in DCS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, later on after I asked about this, I've realized that it may be more complicated then I initially thought, however, I see that you were able to do it! CONGRATS! I'll inform my friends and will get back to you about that!

Renato71 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 @Kuky: Great work on ex-YU skin and numbers! Those number work on CroAF just fine. Just one thing: in F-16A.skins you should have: material = {"Mig-21_Nomera", "standart", "mig21bis_YUG_Numbers.tga"}; instead of: material = {"Mig-21_Nomera", "standart", "Empty_NOMERA_Mig21.tga"}; The former one does not display last digit at all. Also, there should be a note that bort numbers in mission editor should be entered as 10, 20, 30, 40... instead of 11, 12, 13, 14... cos only the tens are displayed on the aircraft, second digit from editor is transparent. If I explained that correctly :) Unless I'm doing something wrong? I'm selling MiG-21 activation key. Also selling Suncom F-15E Talon HOTAS with MIDI connectors, several sets. Contact via PM.

Kuky Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 You read it all right Renato :) beczl missed this one and I forgot to remind him also he changed the skins, and messed up the numbering textures and reversed them. It's not hard to fix, I hope he fixes it if he gets to release newer version later on... lately I am really only working and nothing else so I was also too lazy to fix it No longer active in DCS...

Renato71 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 No problem, glad to help. BTW, in case I forget to intervene later on, here is the fix for CroAF, using your YU numbers: skin { value = 0.9; material = {"Mig-21_texture001", "standart", "mig21bis_001_CRO_01.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_texture001_2side", "standart", "mig21bis_001_CRO_01.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_texture002", "standart", "mig21bis_002_CRO_01.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_texture003", "standart", "mig21bis_003_CRO_01.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_texture004", "standart", "mig21bis_004_ALL.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_texture004_1side", "standart", "mig21bis_004_ALL.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_texture005", "standart", "mig21bis_005_ALL.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_texture006", "standart", "mig21bis_006_CRO_01.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_cockpitnight", "standart", "mig21bis_007_CRO_01.bmp"}; material = {"Mig-21_bis_damage", "standart", "mig21bis_damage.tga"}; material = {"Mig-21_Nomera", "standart", "mig21bis_YUG_Numbers.tga"}; material = {"Mig-21_Nomera_fix1", "standart", "Empty_NOMERA_Mig21_fix_1st.tga"}; material = {"Mig-21_Nomera_fix2", "standart", "mig21bis_YUG_Numbers_12_Fix.tga"}; material = {"Mig-21_texture001_antenne", "standart", "mig21bis_001_antenna.tga"}; } Also, while playing with this, I've made a short tutorial on how to do this on your own.

beczl Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 The FC2 version is different than previous FC1.12 due I can't model the engine smoke well. It's interfere with the normal missile/rockets smoke so I didn't activate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beczl Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 @speckfire: Sorry I have no time for Mig-25. Some Specular map tests. The plane 1st quarter has a specular the other hasn't. You can clearly see the difference. P.S.: Anybody know how can I create a good nav lights (bano) generally? I follow the "old" FC" way but it seems in DCS use a different enhanced method.
