** Enhancement Thread **

Hi Gents

Some typos in lua files are the source of these faults, it will be corrected in next updates as we spot them

Thanks

Controls Setup: many, but not all, functions are prefixed with "SA342" - which is redundant and serves no purpose. Could be removed, no?

 

edit:

oh, I think, I get it now - for debugging purposes? To distinguish between SA342 specific functions and DCS stock ones, right?

The pilot template as well as the helicopter one..

Hi all,

I just see that we have missing keyboard inputs for NADIR both rotary selectors and for key "5", will they be implemented in the future ?

A bind is available for the fifth key.

An Option to extract the coordinates from the Viviane system to use in lua Scripting or even better a create a "Unitname_spot_zone" that can be adressed in lua or the editors Trigger system.

That could be used to call units in zone Triggers, call virtual guided bomb strikes "explosion" in zone etc.

To use the Gazelle as a spotter/scout for real!

Could work like this:

-Commander "spots" enemy units

-button or radio command to generate "Report" (F10- Target type F1-Generic, F2-AntiAir, F3-Tanks, etc.)

-a new zone is bound with a pattern following "unitname_spot_zone" that is added like a moving zone so whereever the Viviane is looking there is a 10m diameter spotting zone attached to it?

Now, we could check if you have the correct unit in sight, for a recon mission accomplished, make you keep the spot on the enemy until a bomber is on station or call in airstrikes on zone or simply use a standard Trigger, "Explosion" bound to the Zone to simulate a Bomb, Cruise Missile or GBU?

Maybe there are even better ways of using/doing this, but the idea of using TGPs, Sights, Binos to actually do something with them apart from guiding weapons with lasers intrigues me since A-10C times.

Key for Trim On/Off switch on main front panel is missing.

Fly without doors is requested a couple or three times, but it does not appear on the front post. I will like to request this skins too:

Federal Yugoslavia Soko Galeb scheme.

Been slacking on updating the main post...but it's in the master list we use. I've been working on the official checklists this week so a little behind on this wish list thread.

Good to hear, thanks!

And the little cool skin? :)

"I would like to see some more input possibilities. E.g. all rotating knobs should have a entry for 'rotating right' and 'rotating left'. Thus I can use my encoders..."

I agree, Especially NADIR knobs.

With these key binds I can make a complete touch control Nadir using the i pad app touch control. I already have all the buttons working in sim.

The cool thing with this app is the add-on for voice control!

I have not tried this yet but will report back when i do. If it works,

A voice control NADIR!

Thanks to The Gazelle, the rest of my aircraft sit collecting dust in the hanger:)

Thanks. :)

Is the "non-FFB stick trim feature like in the Huey module" on the list as well?

(press trim, then return stick to centre)

It is really useful when using non-FFB stick.

It's on the list. If I get time this week I'll update the initial post. But having way too much fun testing the new weapons right now.

Thanks. :)

Thanks, that sounds super. :)

Almost not envious on your reasons not to have time to update the list. ;) :D

extracting co-ordinates from the Viviane would open a whole new world for observables and make them a serious asset on the battle field...

Especially if you could export those co-ordinates to the coms menu for artillery call or broadcast to team members which could than be transferred to each members kneeboard map... that would be sweet.

Weapons: Add Guns, Rockets, Mistral, and sharks with lasers on them.

Yes! :thumbup:

how about

Would you consider modeling two more weapon types that were used on the licensed SOKO bulit SA 341/342 Gazelle called Gazela GAMA? Namely the soviet bulit Maljutka rocket and STRELA 2M.

Here is an example of the Maljutka rockets and STRELA (the tube between tthe 2 rockets) mounted on a GAMA:

I gonna ask something that I've asked in the Dev update thread: Did you plan to add a moving map like this screen taken on a video from French Army:

Model the black and yellow fuel cutoff handle?

An IA copilot who can firing hot missile.

Hello,

I would like to have a JTAC team in the back of the Gazelle, preferably in the M version, so we can also use the Viviane.

After seeing that a Sniper team is coming I don`t mind if you can bring this and add a level of cooperation with other aircraft.

Salute

This module needs option to turn off image vibration - camera shake in cockpit, please. Just to save real eyes of virtual pilots. Shake is needed when heli goes from hover to flight, from flight to hover, in vortex ring state. At least we need some reducing of cockpit shaking.

P.S. By the way - Gazelle is good module, thank you.

Could you improve gauges textures(actually I meant "polygonal representation of a circle")? Because at this very moment they are probably the worst in DCS World. Even gauges textures of the oldest module Ka-50 looks better and smoother, not to mention A-10C. Some pics for comparison:

+1 It's good implemented in other three heli in DCS World, they are not shaking all the time.
