FAC-CAS, I think I just wet myself!

 

 

On this screenshot, it seems that the terrain viewed through the front window is higher than to the sides. Could this be a simulation of the refraction effect of the armored glass (see the famous Fw-190 "bar" discussion in Il-2). Edit: Perhaps it is just a illusion because of the low res picture.

Ta for the Link :)

 

Going to be a long wait for Clarity on the DCS version as opposed to the TBS version showcased in the article. As the Author said - let's hope for 90% Conformity.

I'd say there is just a depression on the right side next to the runway. All other lines seem to be straight lines.

 

But finally some info from the I/ITSEC is dropping in - hopefully we'll see some more shots or even a video? After all, that's the military version, so information revealed cannot be expected to be in the DCS-Version 1:1. :)

 

 

Edit: Great news all over the place.

 

FAC-CAS, improved AI, improved FM, new sound-engine. WOW!

Me to. This and the new sound-system.:thumbup:

 

...but Matt tells me that the A-10C in TBS has an evolved version of the AFM that's even got even more fidelity than the Su-25T had...

:shocking::joystick:

OMG, this waiting for A-10 is terrible.....

[sinelnic]

Please make the AI FAC-CAS into DCS. Please make the AI FAC-CAS into DCS. Please make the AI FAC-CAS into DCS.

 

It's a little step for you, but a huge leap for mankind.

[EtherealN]

If that really was AI FAC-CAS and not someone else sitting on a multiplayer-compatible FAC training software. :P

 

I dunno if that's the case, but sometimes being a spoilsport can be fun. :)

[sobek]

You make way too much fuss way too early :)

[Eddie]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I'VE GOT WOOD!

Wow. It's like almost everything that we have been venting about is going to make it into DCS A-10C; Matt must have been laughing out loud at us. At any rate; I cannot wait.

Maybe that's why he's smiling so broadly on the first picture? :D

[GGTharos]

The demonstrated software was DCS: A-10C, IIRC.

Really?

 

:surprise:

 

 

I remember an official statement that it was DCS:A10C being presented on this event, not only the TBS-Version, but I thought this was merely a misunderstanding or something.

[GGTharos]

There is no misunderstanding. There are some things in the military version that are classified - they would not be demoed in public.

True. That's a good point. :)

 

But that also means that A-10C is on a good road. Looking forward to early 2010 and some more solid info on the project! :thumbup:

 

 

 

...and maybe a short report from Wags after the I/ITSEC2009 :D

What he said. And a few words from Wags would be a nice surprise, but I'll be happy for even a couple more screenies as a new years present ;).

 

After what I've seen/read today I'm even more happy to wait as long as it takes, it'll be worth it.

Just one word of advice, if you still got wood, you should get that looked at by a doctor :D

[herr_LaSk]

I remember DCS: Black Shark was very suddenly released without warning when many fans thought it was still months away, maby thats whats going to happen now too.:D

Yeah, right. :doh:

Naaa, as long as I don't look at A-10 screenies and such I'm fine. I am actually getting worried about what will happen when it is released though, I might get so excited I have a stroke.

 

 

(bu dum tshh)

Nah.....A Bit of Beeswax and you'll be Fine!
