DCS: P-47D-30 Discussion

[Calinho]

Thank you ED for make all Brazilian P-47's fans happy!

 

[BrassEm]

Absolutely outstanding work on the pit ED. Congrats to the team! Attention to detail is second to none!

[Bex]

Not at this time. Our primary WWII Warbirds focus is on improving the current stable.

 

Also, locating needed performance data on the P-47 has been a nightmare.

 

When we have new information on the P-47, it will be posted.

 

Thanks

 

Thank you.

I saw the picture of the wip P47 cockpit with your newsletter this weekend.

It looks so good:thumbup:.

I wonder that they don´t see the wrong instrument letters.They are using a wrong font partially.

Compare the wip screenshot with an original p47 cockpit photo and you´ll see it.

Keep your eye on the "1-4" and "6". For example:the "2" should be curved. The "1" should just be straight.

The same mistake happens with the P51D. Funny, because you see the correct letters on a original cockpit photo in the dcs manual-Page 53,

and the sim picture shows a wrong letter font-Page 61 (MPH and Altitude Meter).

The same in the FW190D9 with deutsche normschrift/german standard letters.

Will they pay attention this time with the p47?:)

Wow, very interesting observation there Pato.

 

Would you be kind enough to share your reference for the correct lettering? Where is it wrong?

[DSR_T-800]

Imagines aren't anything new though. They are just rendered in the game engine. These exact photos were released years ago. At least its a sign the P-47 is actually coming. :)

Thank you for the frivolous google search. Not the best examples to support your argument on the 1-4 and 6 etc that ED got wrong according to what YOU see what-ever that is. :lol: Just as well they are not using your examples to back up your statement as reference.

 

 

 

It is a shame really as I thought you had some bona-fide reference that is actual circa 1944 for the D to back up your statement that you might have shared.

 

No matter. I think ED are getting it right.

 

 

Using philips head screws for the bezel mounts and aged radium is another matter for discussion. But it is a work in progress :smilewink:

492nd FS hosts P-47 heritage day: https://www.dvidshub.net/news/276076/492nd-fs-hosts-p-47-heritage-day

[Robert31178]

Man, that's pretty messed up. I doubt most of the actual pilots enjoyed killing horses...

 

That's exactly right pardner. A read of Hellhawks will tell you just that, most hated it but understood they were part of the war effort at this point. Some even refused to do it. A lot of pilots were country boys, grew up on farms, so it's easy to see why they would be unhappy with having to blast farm animals.

 

On another note, I thought we were getting the D-25? Is it the -30 now?

[saburo_cz]

D-28 was the first planed during Kickstarer, as i remember.

But D-30 is planed now, probably since ED took over WWII project, IMO D-30 is better choice.

Amen......:pilotfly:

Hot damn, dive brakes then????

[Robert31178]

Don't forget that the highest scoring US ace over Europe earned all of his kills in a Jug - Francis Gabreski

 

You can read more about him and some others on the skins page I brought back to life for the Jug.

First day my a$$....I'm trying to cram the money into my computer right now!!!

[AG-51_Razor]

I've already paid for it and the wait is killing me! But I know that once it falls out of the ethernet, it will have been well worth the wait and all will be right with the world. :thumbup:

[Robert31178]

How did you already pay for it????

[NineLine]

How did you already pay for it????

 

Some people picked it as part of their Kickstarter package way back when.

[Robert31178]

Oh. Dang, but I understand. It's hands down my favorite warbird so I am VERY excited abkut this release.

[AG-51_Razor]

What Nineline said :thumbup:

[Robert31178]

Question, will BST be working on this plane now as well?
