Vault Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I'm glad you've used the documents I released to model the avionics and cockpit. The button pushing on this model is going to be 100% accurate and in depth. I'm so buying this module. Good work lads. This model is going to be far more realistic than the other DCS releases that are WIP. It's an honor to know that I've helped in your project. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
rattler Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Yes the buttons will probably work but leave a little room like 99%.:D
Vault Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Yes the buttons will probably work but leave a little room like 99%.:D Like 99.999% accuracy of avionics. :) These lads are going to do the 'Phoon proud, make no mistakes about it. Their modelling and accuracy of avionics will be second to none. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Their modelling and accuracy of avionics will be second to none. I know, I worked with VEAO, Me, Crow and Ells. The Typhoon is very close to my heart. Spent a lot of time in FC1 and FC2. Keep project moving forward. rattler
Mr_Burns Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) Sorry Outlaw, I can't give you the Max file, however here are links to the image files. http://www.veao.eu/dcs/typhoon/ef_cpt_left_panel.bmp http://www.veao.eu/dcs/typhoon/ef_cpt_right_panel_01.bmp Cheers, Chris. Hi Chris, Any chance you could post the bmp for other panels? Im having a go at making the Typhoon Cockpit (not to scale exactly and I cant make the fancy buttons with changing text!), I have the info I need on the HUD, RHGS, LHGS but the other panels (except the ones above) I can only find low res photos taken from a distance (obviously)! Dont want to ''push'' it but will try Regarding clickable cockpit, can you advise which buttons/switches you are programming yet? and Is that like an up/down/left/right type switch at the top of the LHGS lower panel - in MSX its called the DCS (up down reset sequence) ***So that would be the gear panel, the one behind the stick and is there anything above the DWP??*** Edited November 12, 2012 by Mr_Burns
Mr_Burns Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Where can I get the blueprints for the Typhoon cockpit? There is a Russian gent who drinks in the Swan, he has the blueprints for sale.
Ells228 Posted November 12, 2012 Author Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) These may help: MDEF - http://www.veao.eu/dcs/typhoon/ef_cpt_button.bmp Although the MDEF buttons can change depending on what system you are accessing. I also have a very handy graphic with all of the labels on it, but not at my home pc right now, I'll take a look later for you. Edited November 12, 2012 by Ells228
JB3DG Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 I could swear the second pic is a F-15E cockpit with a new UFC....
Ells228 Posted November 12, 2012 Author Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) Ooops yep I posted up the wrong pic, sorry. Ok so my iPad is handy for some things, but not others haha Edit >> Here are some shots JimMack took at ITEC a few years ago that also may help. http://www.veao.eu/dcs/typhoon/Typhoon_Cockpit.rar Edited November 12, 2012 by Ells228 1
Ells228 Posted January 16, 2013 Author Posted January 16, 2013 Not for Tiffy at the oment as out focus is on the Hawk. Next eye candy will be just the switch test once I get it coded in the next couple of months. Cheers, C.

outlaw86 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 cockpit dimensions Hello all. I have been looking for a site as rich in resources and help as I have seen here. I am new here so I apologize if I seem behind the curve. I am building as close to scale 1:1 cockpit of the Typhoon and stumbled across your forum. Those panels are incredible. Would you object if I asked how you designed them? I am also looking for the actual dimensions of all the panels. I can upload pics of how far I am on this Flight Sim if you all want. After 18 months and no help from or responses from the Manufacturer on the measurements I actually took dozens of photos I had downloaded and scaled what I have off of the MFD buttons. It has been a tedious process and I am still not as close as I would like to be. Any asistance is always appreciated and I hope to hear responses. Thanks again
Ells228 Posted April 18, 2013 Author Posted April 18, 2013 Hey Outlaw. We don't have dimensions but our modeller "worked out" the sizes based on other things that we could get data for in the real world. They may not be 100% accurate to the actual panels. All things to check as part of our development. Good luck with your project, Chris.
BigBANGtheory Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 fyi the Imperial War Museum Duxford UK has a Typhoon you can practically walk up to, with permission you maybe allowed to take measurements.
Ells228 Posted April 29, 2013 Author Posted April 29, 2013 Yes of course, I forgot about that one. Great idea BBT
TimeKilla Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Strange is it just a mock model? or an old test version? :joystick: YouTube :pilotfly: TimeKilla on Flight Sims over at YouTube.

Python Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Out of interest Ells, do you have any plans for a two seater? I appreciate it would be a lot of extra work but they are damn sexy ;) I think I'm just a sucker for two seaters mind, most look nicer than their single seat counterparts imo... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

ishtmail Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 I must say I can't wait for this module to come out... I've enjoyed the original EF2000 back in the day (the soundtrack was pretty neat too :) ), so the prospect of a proper DCS module brings back fond memories...
