(of course if you have an "already converted to EDM model"

NRG-Vampire Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 confirmation??? hopefully :thumbup: i dont know who can redact/write on that FB/ED site "Eagle Dynamics: Have you heard about Russian bomber Tu-22M3?

DiCE81 Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 right now I was doing a mission in the editor with the Tu-22M3 :punk:
ericoh Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 I think i would do unspeakable things for a DCS Version of this
SkateZilla Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 the Page name doesnt mean anything, i can start a page that says "Eagle Dynamics" too. It says official, but so does a few other "news" pages that post rubbish.

winchesterdelta1 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Awesome... These are the kind of special things im waiting for. I would fly this for sure. Never ever flew a supersonic bomber before in any flight simm. Now we wait for the B1-b Lancer announcment and the party is complete. Looking forward to this. Go in close, and when you think you are too close, go in closer.
104th_Cobra Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Even knowing the crew number is four (pilot, co-pilot, navigator and weapon systems) and knowing nothing about the complexity of management with this airplane, I would buy a DCS Tu-22M3 Backfire module, in the first minute. 104th Cobra [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

pyromaniac4002 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I would think they were talking about an AI version. I could've sworn I saw something a long time ago about ED not doing the F-15E themselves because they don't want to get in to trying to model a two-seater aircraft. I can't imagine if that was the case they'd just jump into the world of bomber aircraft, as awesome as it would be. If this is for real though, here's hoping for DCS: B-1B, B-52H, and B-2 in the future. :pilotfly:
DiCE81 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 No is a module of DCS, no talking about it. it's like Il-78, Kc-135 that are new 3D models, Tu-22M3 is 3D very old
71st_Mastiff Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I would imagen there upgrading the old models..

mjeh Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) There is absolutely nothing to substantiate that it's a flyable, the only thing that has been announced is that the tu-22 is getting a new 3D model. An upgrade which is sorely needed, I might add, considering its current flanker era-looking model Edited April 26, 2013 by mjeh
ED Team NineLine Posted April 26, 2013 ED Team Posted April 26, 2013 Its no secret that they are slowly upgrading older 3D models, there is a list in the 3D modeling section of models they and others are working on, and that others can submit if they have created or would like to create.

Kaktus29 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 yeah, i also think this is an upgrade of the old 3d model than making an actual DCS modul to fly by customers.. it would be awesome though.. this thing is amazing, fast as hell, good payload, great range.. looking menacing.. but the big pleasure would only come if they model the 4 crew interaction in a simulation-gameplay-sensible way.. so you get to learn stuff, like who does what,how to communicate with them.. and then how to use all that to do your job-bombing,missile attacks etc.. but again, such long range bombers are only good for a map that covers lets say 4000kmX2500km ..
ED Team NineLine Posted April 26, 2013 ED Team Posted April 26, 2013 Perhaps you missed the point of my post, but for all intensive purposes it is users that can create these replacement models. I am sure ED is doing some themselves, but I doubt it effects anything of higher priority. After all and 3D model artists probably does 3D models all day and isnt asked to say work on coding of this or that. As for users creating the models... The tools are already there, the knowledge is too if you look and ask. i don't really understand why they can't be a little bit more 'open' on this... updating 3d models is probably of an absolute low priority compared to all other much more important things they are focusing on, then why don't they release guidelines and some tools so the community can create 3d models as AI replacement and more to populate the diversity of planes in DCS. I presume it might be a bit complicated with military planes because of specific tasks and weaponry they use, but for instance why the community couldn't contribute with 3d models of civilan AI planes that has only a dumb task to fly thru waypoints? why wouldn't we see there some civilian traffic Tu-154, B737's, A321's etc ...??? also, why all of other upcoming third party planes (ie: Hawk, Mig21bis etc etc) those that you can see already flying on screenshots can't they already be released as AI just like they did with the BF109 ????

mjeh Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) updating 3d models is probably of an absolute low priority compared to all other much more important things they are focusing on, "They"? A professional 3D artist is a 3D artist and a professional programmer is a programmer, and while there's nothing to stop a person from having multiple skillsets the art department does one job and the programming department does quite another. As evident, the external models for the upcoming releases (f-15c, f-18c, fw-190d9) are already done or close to done, and the f-15c cockpit is already done (or mostly done, see FC3) as well. Considering this, working on renewing some of the older art assets doesn't necessarily detract from the overall progress of DCS at all. Also, there are several examples of reviews and quasi-reviews that thrash DCS for including some of the older art assets (including the tu-22 model). So while I think we all agree that upgrading older assets shouldn't happen at the cost of progress for new releases, I disagree that it is unimportant. It's a question of immersion, after all. but for instance why the community couldn't contribute with 3d models of civilan AI planes that has only a dumb task to fly thru waypoints? why wouldn't we see there some civilian traffic Tu-154, B737's, A321's etc ...??? Yes, but that's what unofficial mods are for. Official mods require quality assurance which does indeed take resources away from product testing of official releases. also, why all of other upcoming third party planes (ie: Hawk, Mig21bis etc etc) those that you can see already flying on screenshots can't they already be released as AI just like they did with the BF109 ???? While I don't know much about mod making for DCS, I suspect there's a lot more involved than simply creating an external 3D model to make a fully functioning AI plane. Edited April 26, 2013 by mjeh
neoshi Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Oh how I would love to have a DCS: TU-22M3 or DCS: B-52H or DCS: B-1B... imagine if multi-crew also worked :pilotfly:
