nscode Posted August 29, 2010 Posted August 29, 2010 Inspired by the " If you mastered DCS A-10C, could you hop into the real thing, run it up, and fly it?" topic, where someone mentioned that you wouldn't know how to open the canopy from outside, and such, could you add "outside the aircraft" as a starting point? :) We could do a walkaround, admire the modeling, check if something leaks, and then climb in hehe Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.
claud Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 what if DCS had this 3d engine? ahhh a guy can dream. A-10 , F-15 , F-16 choppers , Migs , Su .. all flying in that terrain... OMG.
BKLronin Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 From the Screenshots I´ve seen from DCS:A10C I would say it looks even better! Of course it hasn´t maps of the whole world in it but at least if everyone converts his own region for DCS this could happen anyway. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

sinelnic Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Colombia - Venezuela and NW Brasil, the war for water and some other substances. Seriously, the scenery is magnificent combining the pacific, caribbean and the north Andes mountains. Conflict hypothesis can be very realistic, you can start with COIN operations on both sides and scale up to an all out war involving US and Russian hardware present in the sim. In the future you can extend the scenery to the south to include a Chile-Peru conflict fought on the sea and on 15K ft mountains, and even fight for the Amazonas. Great FARP posibilities, and if this comes along the new weather engine, there´s a humidity festival to be had on those skies. Also if F-16 is in the plans, this is the ideal scenario with various countries already operating the bird. The scenery is huge though, and satellite elevation maps lack quality (I checked!). But nothing is impossible for ED. Especially if one of the guys in the Moscow office gets to go on an "exploration mission" to the beaches, I mean, to the terrain there.

Deadman Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 :cry: i don't want to wait three or four years for a terrain pack Some country with modern cities, seaports, skyscrapers, shopping malls, multi-storey car parks, huge industrial areas, multi level intersections, etc. Taiwan was my favorite in EECH. I'd just love to take-off from a parking lot in some suburb, do a 50km flight to other side of the city, blow up some tanks hiding under road underpasses, artillery battery in golf course, a MANPADS team on a parking lot of a burger joint and provide close air support for infantry fighting house to house in some residential area. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.
power5 Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 That outera engine is absolutely amazing. Wonder what sort of damage modeling it has? What happens when you drop a bomb?

topdog Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 That outera engine is absolutely amazing. Wonder what sort of damage modeling it has? What happens when you drop a bomb? Currently, I suspect none. It does have some near-realtime remodelling of the ground/terrain (watch the video of them laying a 'road' which creates dynamic banks and ridges to all the road surface to have smoother undulations and camber). At present though it is still very much a work in progress. The engine has been quite a few years in the making to get to where it is. Not to discredit them in any shape or form, I understand it's mostly been a labour of just 1-2 main developers, but I expect it's a way off from that level of physics when they still have to do things like render non-billboard trees with shadows at close ranges and playing with the suspension systems on their truck. They may leave some of those things you mention up to their licensees to implement, as they may be specific needs anyway and not needed as part of the core engine deliverable.

power5 Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Yeah, the road building was very intuitive. Just draw where you want it and the engine removes trees and levels areas that are too extreme. In the other videos I watched it did not appear that the trees were billboards. They looked much better than DCS trees. It appears as though the ground has very precise physics already. The truck reacts to all the small differences in the dirt road video. If that was DCS or just about any other engine, it would be a more general reaction I suspect. The plane does not land through the ground either. Looks pretty ready to me. I think developers need to release their product to prospective clients at this stage for a slightly reduced cost. Then the clients can start using the engine and determine what things would help them get the most from the engine. I would love to be flying through that terrain though.

sweinhart3 Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 they didnt show any metro areas though. I suspect if they are modeled similar to that airport, metro areas would look like lego buildups. Still they did a pretty good job with the rest of it. Definitely is still work in progress, or at least I hope so, but so far so good.
