Updates to the KA-50 cockpit? What sort of updates? Still my favorite module.

Scope posted:Updates to the KA-50 cockpit? What sort of updates? Still my favorite module. More detailed mesh, higher-resolution textures, corrected lighting (so button lights actually light up the buttons, for instance). e: Oh, and this is something separate from the upcoming for-pay Black Shark 3 release, which updates a couple of old systems and adds a few new ones (most notably better threat warning and Igla anti-air missiles).

Anyone else preorder the carrier on steam with the discount coupon? I seem to have found myself surprise owning the Su-33 now without paying for it?

PSA with the new patch: JF-17 drivers should prioritize getting the engine on, and air flowing through their mask. You will suffocate on the ground otherwise. Imagine the crew chief ripped terrible rear end in your cockpit and your first priority is fresh air.

Gonna take a break from DCS Huey to play Super Huey for the Atari 800XL. Old combat sims came up in the flight sim thread, and I ended up tracking that game down. It holds up surprisingly well for a 1986 title, and the opening sequence is just as lovely as I remember from when I was 5  .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nblRiGoEQ34 Words about it.

Scope posted:Updates to the KA-50 cockpit? What sort of updates? Still my favorite module. This came out today. I'll just pull up an existing map and- dcs.log posted:EDCORE: # C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at 29D9D903 00:00000000 It does look immensely better, upgrading the Ka-50's textures from "rear end" to "actually pretty good" though the toggle switches along the right side still look weird:    It's also now next to impossible to hit the ejection system arm switches even with TrackIR (there's like a single pixel where you hit the switch instead of the cover) to the point that I have no idea if they even tested doing a cold start. This is ED so, 50/50. Bonus Nevada at night for the lighting changes (but from a Hornet because I can't fly the Ka-50 for poo poo):  Steam's jpeg compression isn't doing it a lot of justice, to be honest. If anything now it's too bright.

Is there a good reason we haven’t gotten any high fidelity modern Russian fighters? Su-30SM would be badass and would supplement the FC3 Su-27/33 in the same way the Strike Eagle will the F-15C. I know why we won’t see a F-22 or a Su-57, but surely 4th gen fighters are no longer ultra classified. E: Also while we are at it why not make a FC3 style pack with all the planes they can’t get the intricate details of? It’s better than nothing.

Classification isn't the problem; there are tons of MiG-29s all over the world, even some in private hands, that ED could use for reference if they had to. The problem, I've heard, is simply that the Russian government has politely asked them not to make a high-accuracy simulation of any current frontline aircraft, and because ED is in Russia, that's that.

ED should move to the Ukraine or something and get on that lol. I know it’s not that simple but it would be cool if they let a third party do it. bewbies posted:that being said, i'm always curious why that fidelity level really matters...like it is opaque to all of us, why not just make a best guess about this stuff and not even have to worry about illegally smuggling ancient F-16 manuals FC4 pack with a Typhoon, F-22, F-35B, Su-30/34, Rafale, Su-57, ect would be a insta buy from me. Maybe throw some bombers in there too since they are significantly more complicated than a single seat fighter, and would work better with the advanced flight model over the pro.

So I just got a T1600000000000000000M and setting stuff up for DCS. I got the FC F-15 to ease myself in. Which view setting is it to look around the cockpit? I want to look around with the stick on the throttle where my index finger rests.

I hope that the "highly anticipated" plane ED is talking about is either an A-6 or an F-4 but knowing how these things tend to go it's probably going to be whichever small European jet trainer they haven't yet got. Alphajet?

The SLUF should be a lot of fun, and it’ll be interesting to compare it to the F-8 that another third party is working on.
