Grim_Smiles Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 IIRC, one of the rewards from DCS WWII stated a beta of 190D9 estimated to be out on Q1 2014. So I'm not anticipating any real news on the Dora until after the holiday season. They have shown us the eye candy with the cockpit renders and the model in DCS, so now comes the coding side (like what SithSpawn brought up). So we might be waiting until they are ready for beta before geting any additional news. Although I'll admit I'm hoping I'll be pleasantly surprised by some news prior to then. With all the Edge updates we've been getting though, I have to wonder if the guys at ED got tired of the "Whatever...now what about Edge?" comments and are going "Here you savages, here's your Edge updates!":D "Hurled headlong flaming from the ethereal sky; With hideous ruin and combustion down; To bottomless perdition, there to dwell; In adamantine chains and penal fire" (RIG info is outdated, will update at some point) i5 @3.7GHz (OC to 4.1), 16GB DDR3, Nvidia GTX 970 4GB, TrackIR 5 & TrackClip Pro, TM Warthog HOTAS, VKB T-Rudder Mk.IV, Razer Blackshark Headset, Obutto Ozone

Foul Ole Ron Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 From the DCS WW2 update it sounds like this is being actively worked on at the moment. Hoping for some beta release news in the next while. This is definitely the release I'm most looking forward too.
Foul Ole Ron Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 So, ah, any news maybe coming on this one? Poor Krupi will have a stroke if this beta doesn't arrive sometime soon...

jeffmaysefaith79 Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Is there a FW-190 flyable mod, a f-18 flyable, and a l-39 flyable? I see ppl flying them online but I cant find them. "You should fly a fighter aircraft one inch from out of control at all times in a purposeful way" -Willie Driscoll USN (ret)
Mainstay Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Another thing I noticed on the Fw 190 model - the distance between the MG 131 guns is too big. Personally I'm convinced of that, for me it's visible with the naked eye. However, here is my little demonstration attempt, as imperfect as it might be. The real plane radiator cowling's diameter is 1100mm. My demonstration is based on the assumption that at least this important dimension is accurate on the model in DCS, anyway it doesn't look like it's too small. The distance between the MG 131 guns should be 308mm. According to my measurements in the picture below, the distance as is now is approx. 400mm. I have drawn also how close the guns should be. While taking the screenshot used, I have tried as best as I could to minimize the errors. Anyway, the difference is too big to be put down on perspective errors. been looking at this aswell and noticed the same.

Mobius_cz Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 That is quite interesting but when i look at these last pictures everyone will noticed that it doesn't look the same at all, why?:huh: [sIGPIC]http://dcs-uvp.cz/images/userbars/uvp_bars_mic.gif[/sIGPIC]
MiloMorai Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Did the spacing of the MG131s increase from what it was on the A-8? A-8 is 260mm
wolfstriked Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Mainstay that pic has so many differences compared to the DCS Dora,not just the weapons distance.It is an artists rendition of a Dora.That said I,for some strange reason,always find the drawings of planes to look so much better.Its as if the artists adds little flares here and there and small tweaks that please the artist in me.I have two pics below that show the DCS artists rendition of the Dora compared to the artist who does those other renditions.Look at the cowling and notice all the bumps changes in thickness etc compared to the DCS model.Now which one is more true to life I have no idea.

Krupi Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 (edited) Well if you are talking about the machine gun cowling there are about 6 versions each manufacturing plant had a different design... strange! What we have modelled is a Werknummer 600 series production from the Kassel factory. The one shown in the profile is a rather unusual Mimetall factory (Werknummer 500) design with a bulge added for good measure... :D Edited August 12, 2014 by Krupi Windows 10 Pro | ASUS RANGER VIII | i5 6600K @ 4.6GHz| MSI RTX 2060 SUPER | 32GB RAM | Corsair H100i | Corsair Carbide 540 | HP Reverb G2 | MFG crosswind Pedals | Custom Spitfire Cockpit Project IX Cockpit

wolfstriked Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 krupi,that is not what I was talking about. :) Not sure what it is called but I think it houses the radiator flaps.I am talking about the engine cover that goes all the way to the propeller.The DCS rendition shows an even surface from the radiator flaps to the propeller while the other pic shows that right before the propeller the cover bulges slightly.

I will look at the blue prints I have tonight but I think the issue is two fold. Firstly the bulge is less pronounced in the model than it is in the profiles you are looking at and secondly you are looking at the model when the radiator flaps are not fully lowered so it removes the bulges look somewhat.

wolfstriked Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Ahhh,if the flaps close a bit more than the bulge is more evident.That makes sense but I do not have the Dora yet so I cant check this.

wolfstriked Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Its not enough though.I dont know what it is about these drawings of vintage birds that always pleases my eye while I never get the same feeling in a sim.
