SU-25T - HD Cockpits and 6 DOF

[PeterP]

EDIT:

OOPS ! I apologize...

now I realised that this thread is about higher resolution textures... :P

 

Sorry!

- but I will left my post as it is, because this can also be handy for folks that stumble over this thread.

Enabling "True 6DOF View" for Su-25T:

use this settings for DCS:World :

(get a proper editor >> Notepad++ and edit the exact same lines like written below)

 

Its a edit of "Server.lua" and "View.lua"

you will find both in:

Eagle DynamicsDCS WorldConfigView

 

 

Thanks ! So much better!! +1

 

I already thought to mess with it - but I feared to spend hours with try'n'error. ...I can only do things like this when my wife is not watching!! - thanks again for saving me (us) the time!

 

 

So, once again :

 

 

 

 

Used aspect is 2:1 on 1400x700 windowed.

( I usually use 22:10 at 3840x1792 fullscreen -but this makes no noticeable difference . I had to reduce the size to make the video )

 

Used settings for the 6DOF:

 

I left this on Default:

Server.lua:

EyePoint[su_25] = {0,0,0}

Server.lua:

CockpitLocalPoint[su_25T] = {3.906, 0.466, 0.0}

 

Server.lua:

limits_6DOF[su_25T] = {x = {-0.02,0.7 } ,y = {-0.15,0.35} ,z = {-0.26,0.26},roll = 90}

 

Server.lua:

CameraAngleLimits[su_25T] = {140.0, -65.0, 90.0}

 

View.lua:

CameraViewAngleLimits[su_25T] = {20.0, 160.0} -- 160 is only useful at a aspect of 16:3 (3x16:9)

 

Server.lua/View.lua:

CameraAngleRestriction[su_25T] = {0,90,0.5}

 

 

As you can see - the only "Big" problem is the transition of the Cockpit front dash to the nose of the model.

anyone tried this with 1.2.0?

It should work.

yes it works

[JABO2009]

is the Su25T capable of night attacks in DCS? if yes, which pod do I need to have with me and which key activates NVG view?

[PeterP]

No- no NVG for the"T" model- You will to use torch-rockets/parachutes for this kind of attacks at night.

[Xerxes17]

He is referring to the low light targeting pod in which case is the "mercury" pod. Only fixed 5x zoom but it is far better in low light conditions than the standard EOS.

Server.lua/View.lua:
CameraAngleRestriction[su_25T] = {0,90,0.5}

 

What do these values mean, in order of appearance?

 

The defaults are {1,60,0.4}...

it's in the LUA.. and that particular line is your eye focal point.

 

 

 

horizontal angle max, vertical angle min, vertical angle max

[Ratfink]

do the Ricardo HD and 6DOF mods work with DCSW 1.2.1 anyone?

[neroroxxx]

I wonder if ED will add the 6dof mod to FC3

Ricardo's Pit

This one here works quite well: http://files.lockon.ru/en/208092/

 

6DOF:

Due to all the updates I've been updating my server.lua and view.lua manually, using Notepad++.

 

I follow the values from PeterP in this post: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=1482473&posted=1#post1482473

Is it working with 1.2.1 6288? I did the above mentioned changes with notepad++, but during mission loading the process bar stops before 50%, and the dcsw freezes. In the log I got:

00009.808 ALERT   EDCORE: Can't execute Lua file ./Config/View/Server.lua - [string "./Config/View/Server.lua"]:1: unexpected symbol near 'ï'

[Ratfink]

anyone know if it works in 1.2.2. yet?

[Mustang]

I'm using my uploaded HD pit textures here

and my 6DOF here

 

http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1615478&postcount=15

 

both function in 1.2.2.7570 just fine.

[Rider1]

Nice job Mustang. Looks beautiful and works really well.:thumbup:

 

And if you change Line 158 in view.lua to this:

 

CameraAngleRestriction[su_25T] = {1,125,0.4}

 

You will be able to turn your head further and see the sides of the ejection seat, but not so far that you see the gap between the halves.
