prawncracker Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 Hi Guys, Is there any way to get a missile warning when a missile is lauched either from a sam or other aircraft, similar to that of the A10? I found this post: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=97019 but it doesn't seem to work. Thanks, M
159th_Viper Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 The Ka-50 does not have a MWS so no, you will get no warning from SAM launches. It does however have a LWR.

prawncracker Posted December 16, 2012 Author Posted December 16, 2012 Thanks for the replies guys. I don't care much for the realism. I would like like to know if there is a way to get any sort of warning when a missile is lauched. Even if its just a bleep or a message in the console. I have A-10 as well. is there any way i could use the folder from the A-10C and somehow incorporate it into the ka50? Cheers, M

IIRC the 'Radio Assists' option will warn you of launches and subsequent impending doom. Novice or Veteran looking for an alternative MP career?

I think it is activated when using game avionics. You can find this condition in the lua file. You will have to change the game avionics condition to non-game avionics and it will probably work. Then you will have the arcade style voice saying "Missile! 9 o'clock low!" 'Frett'
Weta43 Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 IIRC the 'Radio Assists' option will warn you of launches and subsequent impending doom. That's my memory too. Cheers.
Ebs Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 This should work for the sim --if LockOn_Options.flight.radio_assist then creators[devices.MLWS] = {"avMLWS", LockOn_Options.script_path.."Devices_specs/MLWS.lua", {{"betty", devices.VMS}}} --end (comment out the "if" and "end" lines) but I haven't been able to get it to work :( Check out my guide to JSGME for DCS World.
prawncracker Posted December 18, 2012 Author Posted December 18, 2012 Thanks again for the replies. I commented out the if statement but it still doesn't work. To double check I got the syntax correct, I done the same with the easy radar which worked fine. I'm using the dragon mission: operation Bigfoot as a test sandbox. Is there a range limit on the radio assist stuff? The buk's a fair bit away from my flying area (15-20km) Any ideas?
ZQuickSilverZ Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 I know that MWS can be used in sim multiplayer. I have seen it before on a server while flying a KA50. I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original. "Off with his job" Mr Burns on the Simpsons. "I've seen steering wheels / arcade sticks / flight sticks for over a hundred dollars; why be surprised at a 150 dollar item that includes the complexities of this controller?! It has BLINKY LIGHTS!!" author unknown. These titles are listed in the chronological order I purchased them. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
TurboHog Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Can't get it to work. Commented it out Removed if - then statement Used an alternative condition that was true Used an else statement with the same action Tried If not Nothing. WTF? :(:huh: 'Frett'
Ebs Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 It's definitely something internal. if you 'enable' it correctly, dcs.log shows "unable to link target "betty" with source device"...I tried tons of stuff to get this to work. even searched through the cockpitbase dll to try and find the right link target...no go! I contacted a dev about it and he's forwarded on to someone else. if I get a reply I'll let you guys know. Check out my guide to JSGME for DCS World.
ZQuickSilverZ Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 I should specify that I did not get it to work by flipping the MWS switch in the Black Shark. What I got was a verbal warning almost like a scripted trigger. It was in a multiplayer mission. The warning seemed to last forever with no ill effects however, if you stayed for a while the missile would indeed hit you. I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original.

Amarok_73 Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 So here I am, bumping this thread, and asking if we will eventually have back MWS available in KA-50? I remember times, when it was available, and that was lot of fun flying Ka-50 and avoiding missiles in panic whenever warning about missile in the air was sounded, but then someone - by purpose or not - caused that now it's unavailable, and since I have learned to fly without MWS, it's hard to instill in future generations of passion for KA-50, when it causes more frustration than joy. Just to avoid any potential shitstorm about this functionality, that already can be found on SimHQ (as example of few of them), i'd suggest that it would be more than welcome to have it parametrizable and possible to force enabled or disabled as one of mission parameters.

Slazi Posted October 13, 2016 Posted October 13, 2016 Pipok, we don't want it. Perhaps an option that will allow you to use it single player as an unrealistic option would be nice, but a it stands, this is a limitation of the Ka-50. 1

I want it, along with an RWR and chaff. Wouldn't mind getting R-73 support either.

JG14_Smil Posted October 13, 2016 Posted October 13, 2016 Ka-50 enthusiasts have hitched their wagons to a horse that is headed to the glue factory. It makes a great cockpit though. :)

ShuRugal Posted October 16, 2016 Posted October 16, 2016 same but also add amraam support wait, what? 1
fixen Posted October 16, 2016 Posted October 16, 2016 And lets also have it fire nuclear cruise missiles. I mean, I get that some people don't care for that much realism and you are free to play it any way you like, but I rather have the developers working on actual bugs and new aircraft then adding stuff which has no place with the real aircraft. There are loads of arcade flying games out there which are better suited for that.
QuiGon Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Are we talking about a MAWS like in the A-10C (detects missile launches by their heat signature) or about the laser warner?
