DCS BS2 1.24 gun shell ejection

[Davis0079]

I posted in another threat, but I wanted to put it here for the right people to see

 

 

The spent shell casings from the KA-50s cannon are coming from the end of the barrel and not from the body of the gun....

 

i took a couple of screen shots but with the smoke and all its hard to tell....but its very noticeable in game....

 

I have repeated this a couple times so other ppl should try and see if its just me or what

 

If this is a known thing I apologize for the repeat thread....

Quick fix:

Add the marked lines in DCS World\Config\Weapons\aircraft_guns.lua to overwrite the default ejector port position:

aircraft_guns("KA_50",
   gun_mount("2A42", 
       {
           count1 = 240, 
           count2 = 220, 
           second_box_offset = {0.909, 0, 0} 
       }, 
       {
           supply_position = {0.305, -0.6, 0.0},
           muzzle_pos        = {2.793, -0.908, 0.905},
[b][color=Blue]            ejector_pos = {-1.65, 0.0, 0.05}, 
           ejector_dir = {3.0, -1.0, 0.0},   [/color][/b]         
       } 
   )
);

If the position the shells are ejected now is the correct one ... is debatable. If you have better information about the location, plz tell me.

More corrected values for DCS 1.2.6 and 1.2.7

[b][color=Blue] ejector_pos = {-1.65, 0.0, 0.05},  
 ejector_dir = {3.0, -1.0, 0.0}, 
[/color][/b] 

See this post http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1955925&postcount=240 for mode details (Sorry it's the russian post)

Very nice, thank you.

 

Yes, initially I made up the ejector position by myself just by my own imagination ... as I had not found any usable sources.

 

Now we only need ED to add those two lines to their code ...

Seems it will be fixed with 1.2.8
