This plane looks "friggin awsome"!
-
I have downloaded and installed the Hercules mod and it certainly looks good. I have not flown it yet but you can open doors and load cargo of all sorts ( @Sid right up your strasse )
I have downloaded the skin packs which are massive and just picked out 1 for the RAF and 1 for USA Marines.
I think this will be a fun addition.
P.S I tried to get an AI vehicle to drive up into the back but it wanted to go around but I would like to try this out with someone to see what will happen
(I need someone to have the plane and open the cargo doors so I can jump in a vehicle and have a go.)

Myself and @fruitbat with the assistance of @DD_Fenrir got SRS installed and working during last nights DCS session.
It does add another level of immersion to the sim and would recommend you get it installed.
It can sit along side TeamSpeak, we are not replacing it, as we will use that for "lobby" type chat before getting into SRS comms mode.

Salute @DD_Fenrir
I think this would be an excellent idea now that we are all getting more proficient and experienced in our chosen plane sets and would be another element to the DCS experience.
Count me in.
PPS I would also like to try and experience SRS at some point as well, perhaps on our own servers at first.

With the sale now on I thought I would bump this thread to see if it helps align us with common ground?
Please let me know if you have added a map to your collection.

Had a good session on Friday night with Fruitbat. We practiced me hovering by the targets and relayed the co-ordinates to him. He then hit the target from 30,000 blind through clouds which was a lot of fun.
If you want to try it it is a lot of fun.
We are going to put a video together showing the process. It took us a while to work out the translation between what I could get from the Apache to what he needed in the F15, once we had that sorted, no tank was safe!

In the same vein, I have just seen this post about having A-A radar running causing issue.

Can not make this evening again chaps, Wife needs dinning room (home of the computer) for a "Girl Guiding Planning Meeting"...
-
I think we need to reach out to Roger again and give him a nudge to ask for his assistance.

Sad but interesting video of a fatal crash and the investigation findings.
Warning - footage includes eye witness video of crash which was included in the crash investigation analysis.

Been looking at the new members and was going to reply to one and invite them to post in the recruitment thread, but I could not find it to post a link.
I think our forum is a bit screwed at the moment?
-
@Crash - Thanks for the head up - I have just gone through and deleted them all. The IP's were all Russian.
I have also started going through and deleting all of the other historical Banned accounts (there are 6 pages full of them!)

Good session last night chaps - thank you for testing the new Persian Gulf map, it seemed to work quite well. I will now try and flesh it out a bit for the next session.

For those of us that can not tell a Gecko from a Goa (plus I wanted a reference guide for mission building) I have converted a resource I found that explains all of the DCS SAM site equipment.
Hope you find it useful.

At least its not Thursday this time...
-
So please use this thread for anything you would have previously said in the chat bar.
-
Sorry - I thought I had posted this link that explains
-
Use this thread to replace the old chat bar that used to be at the top of the forum.
-
Not my work - copy and paste from the ED forum - but useful just the same. It was a good interview with the 4 guys. I watched the whole thing.

PM me a list TBone and I will see what I can do.
If you have any other ideas of things to add to freshen it up let me know.

The subject of the interview with Wags came up last night where I mentioned that the Chinook will be the next module released
A bit late to the party. Interesting video. In case it helps people to find stuff, here is a timeline (more or less) to the DCS content:
15:00 It’s a game. Don’t want total fidelity. Bad guys can use it, too.27:00 At this point can only look back in time for additional aircraft to model. So ground forces will be the new arena.
29:00 Ukrainian map too sensitive tight now as is Taiwan.
29:30 Dynamic campaign still in the works.
30:00 Chinook is next in the pipeline and coming soon.
34:00 For any aircraft, etc, must be able to demonstrate that the data for it came from legal publicly available documents.
36:00 How we decide what module to do next.
41:00 How do issues (“bugs”) get fixed?
43:00 The need to be very careful with documentation and what elements are included.
48:00 Viper radar lock loss bug. Also talk about real world failures and whether to include them in sim.
50:00 Hornet flight dynamics being reworked.
51:00 Full briefing room coming for the carrier.
52:00 Super Hornet not likely and reason why.
53:30 DCS sufficiently modeled that can be used to teach. DCS compared to real world military simulators.
57:00 Did Top Gun 2 help with sales?
58:00 Possibility of destructible trees.
59:00 Additional carrier crew coming soon.
1:00:00 Looking for air boss voice actor.
1:01:30 Wags’ game preferences.
1:02:40 Korea and Vietnam maps. Not now but will come.
1:05:00 Full DCS C-130 will eventually be made.
1:06:00 An entire logistics system is in the works and it’s application to the dynamic campaign.
1:07:00 Difference between DCS and real world experience in the cockpit.
1:12:00 Kola Peninsula map. Whole world map.
1:15:00 Eurofighter. Kiowa.
1:20:30 S-3 possible but far down the list.
1:43:30 Any chance of a Gripen or Rafale? The docs are the issue.
1:44:30 Possibility of FF Su-27, MiG-29, plus more on type and sources of information they can use.
Call: Source code or info on udpspeed?
in IL-2 Sturmovik: 1946
Posted
@raven - We have not played 1946 for quite some time now. We now focus on IL2: Great Battles series and DCS.
I know nothing of the application of which you are asking but there is a new andriod compatible app that can show the dials etc but I am not sure if that is just for GBS.
